Oh you're the guy who couldn't save emails to a file that I replied to on Mastodon. I don't understand how extracting frames from a video and that cumbersome, error prone workflow is an improvement over the code out there to extract JSON from random text files. I think it is neat that it did it automatically for sure, but that doesn't generalize to something that is repeatable and efficient compared to existing systems. I'm sorry that the magic isn't impressive to me but given the nature of how they work that I've been playing with as well since their early fake-dnd game generator days and BERT even before the pandemic do indeed give me a bias to feel justified in criticizing the immensely clear unscalable and inefficient inference.

It is like you can ask these things how to be better at getting people to not cower when you speak and it'll go on and on about the role of discourse and never mention toothpaste. They are X/Y problem factories. I applaud your efforts in documenting it all but the prescriptive value just isn't there and doesn't prove anything about these thing's general applicability.
