Something people are not getting about ChatGPT: it is impressive but ONLY if you don't have domain knowledge. Exactly like someone who came out of journalist school.In real life, you ask the EXPERT and specialist to teach you stuff, not the journalist. https://t.co/cxG0SBd7pQ — Nassim Nicholas Taleb (@nntaleb) May 21, 2023

ChatGPT is a statistical representation of things found on the web, which will increasingly include ITS OWN output (directly and second hand).You post something picked up from it & it will use it to reinforce its own knowledge.Progressively a self-licking lollipop.Enjoy#AI https://t.co/l7q0FhnurS — Nassim Nicholas Taleb (@nntaleb) May 21, 2023

Simplifying the problem:When n is small, the estimation is noisy, unreliable; the bias/variance tradeoff is swamped by the estimator variance.When n is large it does not make a difference. https://t.co/XqFFKcAkG2 — Nassim Nicholas Taleb (@nntaleb) May 22, 2023

Well, tbh, there is no very good reason to divide by (n-1). And I've never seen a practically relevant situation where this makes a difference...
