Hey I'm looking for high accuracy and high speed, its unclear to me if there is a good benchmark out there for this. Willing to try some open source solutions and self hosting as well.

I think this is a fun problem: Say LLMs really do allow people to be 2X or 3X more productive. Then those people that understand concepts and rely on LLMs should be more successful and productive. But if those people slowly decline in ability they will become less successful in the long term. But how much societal damage is done in the meantime? Such as creating insecure software or laying off/not hiring junior developers.

This study is so limited in scope that the title is really misleading - "AI Use Reprograms the Brain" is not really a fair assessment of the study. The study focuses on one question: what is the effect of relying on an LLM writing your essay. The answer: it makes you forget how to write a good essay. I mean, I think its obvious that if you rely on an LLM to write for you, you effectually lose the skill of writing. But what if you use an LLM to teach you a concept? Would this also lead to a cognitive decline? I don't know the answer, but I think that is a question that ought to be explored.

This is an example of a listing removed and relisted

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/825-E-Washington-St-Louis...

this is an example of a price cut https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1435-Mellwood-Ave-Louisvi...

Although both listings display full price history, there’s a key difference in how the information is presented. For the Mellwood Avenue example, a “Price cut: $16K (8/1)” notice appears directly above the listed price, making it immediately visible to users. In contrast, the East Washington listing does not show any price reduction at the top. Instead, users must scroll down to the Price History section to find that detail, easy enough to do but it is an attempt by realtors to obscure the market.

Also when the listing is removed and added, it resets the Days on Market count. This can obscure how long the property has truly been listed, which is a critical indicator of whether the current price is sustainable or if the buyer should negotiate down.
