Trust ranks through the site stewards' curated lens.
There are two ways I know of to code with LLMs well, at least if you’re me. 1: If you want to keep building on something: know what it’s doing all the time, and take responsibility for whether that’s a good way to do it.... Claude's character training
https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-character (From June. There’s also an audio version there, nice to hear Amanda Askell share some personal takes.) Over the past few months, I keep feeling more like asking for Claude’s help on various stuff, and less like asking for ChatGPT’s...

One problem with the Anthropic Study and blackmail: did they also set up a scenario where it had the chance to do maximal good before being shut down? Did they hide one or two good connections it could simply leverage for world-saving or whatever?... - sass...
This might be a whack Q but Imma ask it anyhow: Have any AIs been found working on their 'own' problems/projects/tasks that are arguably not meaningfully contributing to formulating their response to whatever they've been instructed to direct energy into?... - renee...
Retrieval-Augmented Generation: embedding tech that's standardizing
https://www.anyscale.com/blog/a-comprehensive-guide-for-building-rag-based-llm-applications-part-1 Here’s a post from a year ago by a company called AnyScale on how they built out their own custom LLM-system stack tailored to their dataset....
