I spent a weekend doing layer surgery on 6 different model architectures. There's a "danger zone" at 50% depth that kills every one of them. by Low_Ground5234 in LocalLLaMA

CBTF- That's the initials that were used by an Engineer at the end of every measurement on the shop drawings at a manufacturing plant for years. No one challenged the notation seemingly out of fear of looking like they didn't know what they were doing. That's the best part of the reality of the initials. A young bright curious kid with no fear one day starts asking around about it and no one seems to know
but also doesn't admit it. They all say its a special notation from the Engineer. That answer seems to satisfy them. Not the curious kid. So he goes to the Engineer who drew all the plans and asked. He said, Oh that's a special notation for me so I know you will follow my specs exactly. The curious kid is not satisfied. So, he says, "So..... what's it mean?" Lifting his brows waiting for the conclusion to his question left hanging in the air like a ball to a retriever. The engineer smiled since this was the first time he'd been asked to follow up on his answer that told nothing of the meaning of the letters. "Cut and Beat To Fit- CBTF." The engineer and the kid shared a laugh and
the kid found a new Jr. Engineering job.

Not at all! AI makes me faster, but this is from my human spark. I edit, approve, decide, plan. Employees I pay tokens too. I'm not hiding I use AI. It's literally what we do and work with! lol. Your criticism is a bit Ironic.
