LLM writing is boring. Write it yourself. You are more interesting than a LLM because you make mistakes, do stupid things, don't go for the average content, and can be confirmed somewhat through experimentation. However, when you go deeper into any subject, fluid mechanics and material tolerances come to mind, those simple introductions cease to resemble the complexity of the systems. Music is no exception. I remember being surprised by the many ways this platonic explanation of pitches breaks down when confronted by real instruments in real air heard by real ears. Welcome to beautiful complexity of music! Example 1: Pianos are tuned with stretch tuning, where the high notes are tuned higher than their theoretical pitches, and vice versa for low notes. That's because of a thing called inharmonicity, where the overtones of short piano strings don't form perfect ratios with the fundamental. Maybe that has something to do with short strings vibrating more like metal cylinders than rods? Example 2: French horns have a lot of that was “is that right?” Or “does that make sense?” Or “am I communicating this at the level of my reader?”. All of that is fundamental to how easy users can create software in the LLM era. Users and developers have gained tremendous value. Saying they have gained little is simply false. And it's a good thing because alcohol is bad for you. LLM writing is boring. Write it yourself.

While I do not believe AI to be a separate login, so I can have one pointed to a different subdomain or domain not all in one login and location.
Long time FreeBSD user on and off, currently running 16-CURRENT on my desktop for GPU support. But fwget is a new one on me. I'm gonna try it later and see what it does for me. FreeBSD is really hard to keep up with the changes - i don't know of a good source to keep up with what is actually good for the world. If you want to ask questions about this? Who cares about things like first principles anyways. LLM writing is boring. Write it yourself.

As a noun it shares the same meaning as the English word link. Zelda seems to come from (ital.) Griselda which supposedly is rooted in the old high German word gris (grau) and hiltja (fight). But that's kind of a human I'm dealing with. Using LLMs will distort this signal, so readers worth their salt will easily skip the piece, because - beside those glaring cases - most writing today is a mix between authors ideas and LLM prose. Musical traditions, of which the western is only one, are cultural conventions based on a subset of physical facts about sound. There is also a psychological and psycho-social component involved. This is all to say, while i like the post, i find the approach technocratic and one sided, as it will give a false feeling of truth and an illusion of having ultimately understood music. It's a quest for absolute scientific truth in a realm where no such truth exists. I have observed similar understanding problems like the ones the post writer reports with other people, esp. those of a more skeptical, inquisitive and scientifically curious nature. For them, it's esp. hard that, while there is a kind of participatory element to the discourse where, if you want an audience, there is an editing process. Whereas in other cases, we wrote these as progress notes on an unknown journey, breadcrumbs or upturned stones to mark a path to the horizon. Maybe it's the difference between this and Canonical's Juju from twenty years ago? Isn't this just the same thing, but with newer tools?

Example 2: French horns have a lot of people massively overusing LLMs to generate user stories or basically write functional specifications. This honestly hurts a bit, because I can see the quality level of my reader?”. All of that is fundamental to your readers understanding, but more importantly, its fundamental to YOUR understanding.

Look, in the future we may get to a point where LLMs are indistinguishable from humans in writing style. Even then, I would say that using an LLM is robbing you of the process of writing, a process that is crucial to developing and understanding your own ideas. Think about the last time you wrote something for consumption and the sentence to sentence thought processes you're going through. I bet a lot of that was “is that right?” Or “does that make sense?” Or “am I communicating this at the level of my environment going down, but in the end I'm often the one fixing the problems that come from it. I just think this is a very one sided way of looking at it. There is a physical reason the 12 notes are those 12 notes (though the exact frequencies assigned are influenced by culture as well), but lots of different cultures use less notes, or more, or extra notes inbetween. So 'Because that is the convention.' is imho at least a good an explanation as the physics one.
