The best of America drifts to Paris. The American in Paris is the best American. It is more fun for an intelligent person to live in an intelligent country. France has the only two things toward which we drift as we grow older: intelligence and good manners.~ F. Scott Fitzgerald

“The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear”

I’ve been moving continuously, never stopping, for nine days; from Brest, France to Nassau, Bahamas. That’s a lifetime record for this peripatetic. In past voyages, there’s always been at least a brief stop, but weather made that impossible. How about you? Longest continuous?

A lucid, insightful metaphor is my favorite way to explain technology, and Ted Chiang, a science fiction writer, nails it when he likens ChatGPT and LLMs to lossy compression. Excellent! newyorker.com/tech/annals-of…

I fly a lot. There are rules. RULE: If you stow your bag some distance behind your row, you must wait until the rows between you and your bag disembark to retrieve your bag. We are not obliged to pass it hand-to-hand over everyone's heads or let you rush back and return.

Can requesting parties tailor requests for production in discovery to elicit superior performace from the AI tools used by the other side? Here's how.
Adapting Requests for Production for AI GLLM Assessment craigball.net/2024/08/19/ada…
With generative large language models (AI) used to assess information for responsiveness, wise counsel frame requests for production to include elements of effective AI prompts. If you want their AI to find what you need, tell it how to discriminate.
