Ted Underwood: Meanwhile memory chips are increasing in price so fast that by the time Neuromancer comes out this fall you will *actually* be able to get killed in Chiba City for 3 MB of hot RAM.

Eugene Vinitsky: arxiv paper now on hold for almost a week. To all the people submitting LLM slop that brought us to this place, please know that you've appreciably made the world worse
Eugene Vinitsky: No issue with using an LLM in the loop, but tremendous issues in submitting work that you can't stand by and causes challenges for everyone downstream of you
Eugene Vinitsky: I think all my LLM complaining should really be more interpreted as complaining about people. You don't have to do this! LLMs don't submit slop, humans submit slop
Ted Underwood: I've heard waits of a month and more, at which point it becomes more like a postprint server.
