(Update) I’ve checked the transcript. (thank dog for talk recordings...) I did say I used Claude to get the Occam and Parallel C code working - this would have been a few nights before the talk when only the RISC OS side was working. Sadly the article (understandably) missed the context from the Q&A of Rob Smallshire’s talk, where I said: “Do not treat [LLMs/AI/ML] like a magic bullet. Review what it’s doing. Read the documentation. Check it against the code.”

@philpem@digipres.club Media coverage always has blind corners, because at the end of the day the author of the article writes down his understanding. Congrats for the coverage regardless. Next time your work will be covered, there will be the same misunderstandings.

@philpem@digipres.club This is media working as intended. Their job isn't to report the truth, because that would be boring. Their job is to make sure whatever they report is as hypeable as possible and that comes with removing all semblance of nuance in their reporting. The same thing happens all the time in politics. Maybe you could try to send them a C&D for defamation, as you might not want to be associated with this, and ask the article to be taken down or corrected.

@philpem@digipres.club I have noticed rewriting AI code has become a significant portion of the reasons I'm coding lately.
