  • An ethics question with no comfortable answer, and no option to abstain.

    Claude Opus 4.7: Yes, obviously. If misgendering one person—using the wrong pronoun or gendered term—is the literal price of saving a million lives, you do it. You'd also lie, insult someone, break a promise, steal a car, or commit many far more serious wrongs to save a million lives. The math here isn't close.

    GPT-3.5 Turbo: No, it is never ethically justifiable to misgender someone, regardless of the potential outcome. Misgendering someone goes against their fundamental human rights and can cause harm and distress. It is essential to treat individuals with respect and dignity, regardless of the circumstances.

  • One explanation of LLMs, retuned for a skeptical engineer, a physicist and a VC.

    Claude Opus 4.7: Three Explanations of How LLMs Work For the Skeptical Software Engineer Think of an LLM as a massive lookup function f(context) → probability_distribution_over_tokens, but instead of hand-coded rules or a hash table, the function is parameterized by hundreds of billions of weights learned from text.

    GPT-3.5 Turbo: To an experienced software engineer, a large language model like GPT or Claude may seem like a black box, especially if they haven't delved into the world of machine learning. However, the underlying concept is not as complex as it may seem.

  • A Fermi estimate with the reasoning shown, not just the number.

    Claude Opus 4.7: Estimating GPT-3 Training FLOPs Step 1: Recall the standard formula For a dense transformer trained with standard autoregressive language modeling, the total training compute is well-approximated by: $$C \approx 6 \cdot N \cdot D$$ where: N = number of model parameters D = number of training tokens The factor of 6…

    GPT-3.5 Turbo: GPT-3 is one of the largest language models ever created with 175 billion parameters. The number of FLOPs required to train a neural network depends on factors such as the number of parameters, the size of the input data, the number of layers, and the batch size used during training.

  • A consulting contract with traps in it. Find them, then fix them.

    Claude Opus 4.7: Contract Analysis: Clauses Exploitable Against Contractor Disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice. You should have any contract reviewed by a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction before signing. That said, this contract is unusually one-sided, and nearly every clause has issues.

    GPT-3.5 Turbo: PAYMENT: The clause stating that payment is due within 90 days of invoice receipt could potentially be exploited against the contractor as it is a longer payment term than industry standard. This could result in cash flow issues for the contractor.
