I love no mote! One day I'd like to create a server in my basement that just runs a few really really nice models, and then get some friends and CO workers to pay me $10 a month for unlimited access. All with the understanding that if

It's also good to demonstrate to these companies that we're willing to move. If these companies know their entire userbase will just pack up and move at the first controversy, there wont be any controversies.

I don't think Anthropic is a saint that will never do anything unethical. I don't think ChatGPT is any better or worse. But I do think my cancelling ChatGPT so I can try Claude, at this time, sends the message I want to send, whic

If I have a license that says "you may use this, you may not use this", then can people use it? Honest question, I don't know how self-contradictory licenses work. Do people get to pick and choose what they want to follow, or

The copyright holder isn't bound by their own license though. Although, if there are many contributors to the project, there may not be a clear copyright holder.

Instead, websites should voluntarily put content ratings on their own stuff--most would because either they don't intend to harm children, or from societal pressure. Then, software on the user's computer can filter without reveali

Tech companies are one of the jewels in America's (USA's) crown. If we build a bunch of huge AI companies, rivals will probably continue to release open AI models which undermine the US's influence in the world.

Also, the US has a lot of influence over the flow of oil in the world. A world of cheap solar energy removes that influence.

And we need a standard where websites can self-rate their own content. Then locked devices can just block all content that isn't rated "G" or whatever.

Does the pledge of allegiance actually do anything? I can't even remember if I did it in school. I first thought "oh, my State must not have done the pledge in school", but after more reflection I think I did but just doing r

I've said before that we need strong legal protections for white-hat and even grey-hat security researchers or hackers. As long as they report what they have found and follow certain rules, they need to be protected from any prosecutio

An example of this I've personally seen is a friend who works on COBOL mainframes at a bank. He writes COBOL and maintains a banking system that keeps the world running. Literally like a billion people die if the system he maintains fa

Politicians want power over people in the country, but also internet technology is one of the only things the US is best at, and so we don't want the entire world dividing into separate internet silos. (The other things we're best

Regulating actual guns that are frequently used in crime? Unlikely. Regulating theoretical guns? No requirement is too draconian.

What would be different? When the LLM enters the "card" into the API it would define the required information, and then every time it would ensure you cover the required information. You could tell the LLM, "make sure I remem

Is providing scalable products at a cheaper price scalable? If so, can it hurry up and scale? This is a bit of a paradox.

I'd rather do spaced repetition than Obsidian. Does anyone know if a plugin for this? Like, a history buff could just tell the LLM "quiz me on the Taiping Rebellion, who what where when and why." The LLM then enters this inst

And they're probably feeling the need to pinch because they are moving slow and falling out of relevance. When you're being outcompeted and outmaneuvered it's important to slow down and make sure you save a few dollars wherev

Lots of people are doing the math and explaining why what the people who aren't having kids are saying is wrong. They have their math and the people still don't have kids.

It's also a UI that makes covert (bot) advertising basically useless. Any form of communication that is not one-on-one-real-time has a bad UI and is heavily deprioritized.

SpaceX is too big to fail. It's important for national security. I wonder if Elon wants to tangle all his businesses into SpaceX so they are all kept afloat by SpaceX's importance.

I looked at that calculator. But HP Prime and TI-89 have CAS systems that can do symbolic math, so I prefer to emulate them.

I clicked hoping this would be about how old graphing calculators are generally better math companions than a phone. The best way to do math on my phone I know of is the HP Prime emulator.
