I have seen the figure 0.4 kWh for 100 pages of text come about in the paper for generating text with the model. So that goes up to $0.002/page of text when you take into account hardware cost too. Source: https://arxiv.org&

Black holes do not have more gravity per mass than any other object. Put the other way, if the sun would suddenly change into a black hole without losing a lot of mass, the earth would still follow the exact same orbit.

I would say it is exactly the opposite. :) It is showing how you can get drastically better at deep meta-learning by being better at deep learning. But it does not really show how you can be better at deep meta-learning outside of the impro

There have not really been a lot of major breakthroughs in meta-learning in the last year, as far as I am aware. The paper is basically saying there was not a lot of progress in the 3 years before that either. All in all, nobody really has

The field of meta-learning is still very immature though. I can see why you would already want to start a scholarly discourse on the topic, but I am not sure how useful these techniques are for the students involved. They are still very ad

That is very cool. Though, part of the pedal are of course the knobs. You'd need to condition the wavenet on the knobs. Did that work well (I assume that you tried that already)? Also, what is the inference latency on your model? A nic

That is one side of the scale. The other side of the scale has the meat industry in it (which is absolutely not like 100 years ago). As someone who used to work in a slaughter house, I am not convinced that today is better. I can see our ch
