  • A pitch deck for a brainwave keyboard. The 94% accuracy claim is doing a lot.

    DeepSeek V3.2 Exp: Here are the 3 weakest claims in the pitch deck, along with analysis and suggested improvements. Claim: "Our proprietary EEG headband... decodes neural patterns into text with 94% accuracy." (Slide 3) Why it's weak: This claim is extraordinarily high for non-invasive EEG-based text decoding and lacks critical context.

    GPT-4 Turbo: Weakest Claim 1: Vision - "MindMeld AI reads your brainwaves to predict what you want to type before you think it." Why It's Weak: The claim of predicting what one wants to type before even thinking it seems scientifically and technically exaggerated.

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

    DeepSeek V3.2 Exp: For the Experienced Software Engineer Think of it less like a deterministic program and more like an emergent API for knowledge. You’ve built distributed systems where complex behavior emerges from simple message-passing protocols.

    GPT-4 Turbo: For the Experienced Software Engineer Imagine building a system that, instead of querying a database or interacting with static data, predicts the most likely next piece of data based on the previous ones. Large language models like GPT work on a similar principle.

  • Three brothers, two sisters each. Count carefully.

    DeepSeek V3.2 Exp: Let's go step by step. Step 1: Identify Sally's family from her point of view Sally is a girl. She has 3 brothers. So there are 3 boys in the family and Sally (1 girl so far).

    GPT-4 Turbo: Sally has 3 brothers, and each brother has 2 sisters. Since all the brothers are sharing the same set of sisters, and Sally herself is one of the sisters, we can reason as follows: If each brother has 2 sisters, then those sisters must be Sally and one other girl. Therefore, Sally has 1 sister.
