@justanotherlaw @ohabryka no, not from my actual writing. from caricatures.

read the first 10 pages of taming silicon valley, and try to understand the relation between what i write and what people attribute to me.

and then i am happy to chat more; i see you sincere effort.

@GaryMarcus @ohabryka I’m aware! I think it’s quite unfair that people have reduced your overall attitude of LLMs to “haha boo LLMs”, and assume that any LM advance contradicts your beliefs. I’m just noting that this is indeed the impression that people get from your writing/interviews.

@justanotherlaw @ohabryka we can continue another time or another venue. but know that i often say stuff like this

The statement is part of a casual conversation about reading a book and does not engage with public issues or contribute to civic dialogue. It is lighthearted and conversational in nature.
