I am very new AI stuff, so may be missing something.

Is reinforcement learning not an amazing tool to find strange Bitcoin consenseus bugs and edge cases?

I mean is consenseus written in the code not a super verifiable problem?

If yes, its fairly trivial and quite low cost to implement something like this.

So we should do it ASAP, as an adversary could do this with ease and attack Bitcoin.

I didn't buy two years later at around $30 because it was clearly overpriced. Damn it, I was late to the party!!

Anybody else tinkering with local LLMs: do you have recommendations for generic system prompts? I want to avoid the useless guff ("Great question!") so I wrote this; I know it's a bit repeating itself...

I kinda developed a habbit of visually parsing the 1st 2 sentances, and now I ignore them (with chatGPT)

Interesting is that Grok does not do this, and it's way more disagreable than any other LLMs I tried. In fact if I say something that is obviously incorrect it will point that out, where as chatGPT it's like rationalising a way to agree with me.

As for using other LLMs they were pretty much unusable(for the tasks I was doing), and local ones similary not smart enough.

I should try Grok. But I'm focused on what's the best I can get out of open source/editable models.

One things nostr is definetly better than Twitter is posting pictures.

The picture are less compressed and thus better quality.

However the previewing crop feature needs improvement(at least in primat)
