Is there a regularly updated repository containing all the releases of LLMs as they happen? TBH I am tired of having to doommark (doom-bookmark) so many repositories and links...Would appreciate some collected database.

This reminds me of Steve Jobs saying that people don't know what they want until you give it to them. To me, sometimes, it sounds a bit arrogant but definitely true in my experience. I would never have seen the value in an expensive fr

I would not be surprised if Adobe intentionally added monopolistic terms to their deal with Figma or acted that the deal was monopolistic in front of antitrust officials in the hope that they might block the deal, considering that they are

Semantic search for any video : https://semanticvideosearch.com/ As the name suggests, this allows you to search any video using meaning and context. This is very useful for skipping through the fluff on youtube videos.

I never realized that reverse image search was so bad because of regulations. Can you give me some more context about which regulations affect google reverse image search and why?

Wait, they have the authority to block your google auth app? Last I checked, the app is not connected to your google account. And the app's functionality is open source (TOTP). So how does enforcement work?

This reminds of the book Dark Forest in the series 3 body problem Spoiler Alert : In this book, a character invents a way to impart any belief into your mind. So if you read "water is poisonous" while in the MRI-type machine, your

tbh I never really understood that conversation. TARS is a machine and if it's impossible from an advanced machine's standpoint, it's impossible from a physics standpoint. Cooper's maneuver was pretty simple that TARS sh

Human hibernation should be able to solve that problem. I know I am asking for too many things but the challenges for the Apollo mission were even more extravagant. They had to figure out how to launch from earth's gravity, go exactly

I used "they will think of something" as a all-encapsulating solution for what humanity will do in the next century. Predicting the next 10 yrs is almost impossible, let alone the next century. Your example of hotels in orbit is a

you are right about this, but my argument is that we can do this if we want to. Whenever humanity set its sights on a big project such as Apollo or Manhattan, we have accomplished "impossible" things.

There are huge swaths of interstellar dust (mostly hydrogen) which can be used to slow the probe down. If not, then we can use a galaxy's resources to slow us down. Basically a complex version of planetary-slingshot. My argument is, gi

With the assumption that interstellar travel is trivial for a sufficiently advanced civilization, Fermi Paradox becomes a true problem. The best solution for Fermi Parafox, in my opinion, is interstellar travel being impossible. I don'

I skipped over deceleration because 1) our probes can transmit something significant about a galaxy even at that speed and 2) over time, we can probably figure out a way to decelerate using a galaxy's natural resources (similar to how

Slightly off-topic but I find it incredible that people in the comments think interstellar travel is impossible (or almost impossible) A couple centuries ago, the brightest minds thought that humans flying in the air would take a million ye

Very cool work. It supports lots of videos/playlists. I presume you are using FAISS or something for vector lookups?

No gpt3. Embeddings alone can be used for semantic search.
