oop found a security issue - you can abuse profile pictures to upload any file (e.g. to host malware if you were a bad actor!) IMO don't think this is ready for production use in the slightest - but cool project!

A few other trivial bugs I have found: * Can create multiple workspaces with same name which then ticks both * Invite user seems to not work randomly or will not send the email * Cards with special characters like @ will just not be created

Just as a heads up, that roadmap you linked is broken. The formatting looks all off for me on chrome mac (black bars) and then if I click on a card it opens a window but then doesn't load any data. Also it looks like a bug that if you

I think this seems to be veering off into some specific ethical viewpoint about milk supply chains and production rather than an analogy for product vs process. But personally I can't see how the popularity of oat and almond milk in in

I think this is a strange take - Technological advancements aren't mutual funds. Of course it's an indicator of future performance - Not a guarantee, but certainly a indictator .

I like your analogy, but I don't think people even go "the cow gave this milk" - I think they tend to just go "mmmm yummy yummy milk" People usually see the product rather than the process.

Totally agree. Also the term 'LLM' is more about the mechanics of the thing than what the user gets. LLM is the technology, but some sort of automated artificial intelligence is what people are generally buying. As an example, whe

I think AI is a useful term which usually means a neural network architecture but without specifying the exact architecture. I think Machine Learning doesn't mean this as a word, as it can also refer to linear regression, non-linear op

Sure, but everyone knows humans end up bringing down the database too by writing an innocent looking test query nobody else blinks at, which is why you end up needing a testing strategy for ANY SQL before YOLO'ing into prod.

If that’s the scenario, I would be asking why the testing pipeline didn’t catch this rather than why was the AI SQL wrong.

I think there is a world where you have both - a portion of research sitting under constraints, and also massive computing capability to help build the next big model. Put another way - I doubt OpenAI would have built GPT-3 faster if they h

It’s not an either/or - it can be both! If you have the best foundational research, but then find yourself blocked by compute, that’s a bad place to be in. At the moment compute is a constraint too (at least for the smaller shops, mayb

I think the story is probably something like: * AutoStore sold a solution to Ocado * Ocado started modifying their own installation. AutoStore gave them the rights to do this naively thinking it was for their own use. * Ocado started aggres

Not sure why Ocado gets so much credit for the latter though, they just copied AutoStore which has a fascinating history! They purchased an AutoStore, then reverse engineered it, made a few changes, and claimed it as their own invention.

It depends what you count as learning - you told it something, and it then applied that new knowledge, and if you come back to that conversation in 10 years, it will still have that new knowledge and be able to use it. Then when OpenAI does
