An LLM is a lossy encyclopedia simonwillison.net/2025/Aug/29/...
Since I love collecting questionable analogies for LLMs, here's a new one I just came up with: an LLM is a lossy encyclopedia. They have a huge array of facts compressed into them but that compression is lossy (see also Ted Chiang).

The key thing is to develop an intuition for questions it can usefully answer vs questions that are at a level of detail where the lossiness matters.

This thought sparked by a comment on Hacker News asking why an LLM couldn't "Create a boilerplate Zephyr project skeleton, for Pi Pico with st7789 spi display drivers configured". That's more of an lossless encyclopedia question!

My answer:

The way to solve this particular problem is to make a correct example available to it. Don't expect it to just know extremely specific facts like that - instead, treat it as a tool that can act on facts presented to it.

That's what I'm saying, probably expressed in a bad way, of course should be no shame in poverty but that exists and that's one of the reason ghettification happens, I think the same you wrote about public housing and affordable housing, hope it can be done!

Also to avoid ghettification of public housing, you should not be able to tell the income of a person by his neighborhood or his house, but this is a deep problem in the US nowadays, Austria model is an example of a great public housing that keeps rent prices down while giving the choice to own home

The newest and most powerful A.I. technologies — so-called reasoning systems from companies like OpenAI, Google and the Chinese start-up DeepSeek — are generating more errors, not fewer. As their math skills have notably improved, their handle on facts has gotten shakier.

Yep, LLMs will absolutely give you bad information – about 20% of the time, as demonstrated in this study. Of course, looking for the same information using typical search engines is just as bad. There's garbage everywhere! #medsky #MLsky www.evidencetriage.com/p/llms-are-s...

The possibility that RFK Jr. is going to undermine herd immunity in the United States grows increasingly likely. This would mean that US will be responsible for starting numerous pandemics and potentially destroying the effectiveness of the entire globe’s vaccine arsenal. This is bioterrorism.

Wonder why you need a multidisciplinary team of people with years of study and clinical and pre clinical practice, tons of bureaucracy and hours of research to plan and do trials. You could just do "your own research" on Google or chat gpt maybe scientists are dumb and RFK Jr knows better /S
