The managers, aren’t on the hook for actually understanding and delivering the work, or fixing the system a week later when the vagaries of their wand-waving request come home to roost though.

Ooh look! “The x is priced in”! My favourite financial thought terminating cliche! No need to worry or discuss further, it’s all priced in! Everything’s totally fine!!

Let’s not forget to count all the people who use a MS office product at work, and are therefore opted into counting for copilot numbers, which almost _certainly_ counts towards ChatGPT numbers by default!

Talaas have done this with a llama 3 model. Runs at like, 16k/tokens a second oror something obscene. Very little power draw too. Doesn’t need hbm or lots of memory, because the hardware can just forward the data straight to the next l

This reads an awful lot like post-how justification of poor business practices. It’s got a bit of”uhhmm actually, poor management and high turnover is good actually” vibes, which is then (over)extended to a kind of carte-Blanche justificati

It sounds like you’ve got a super interesting stack going on there, evidently with a large performance/latency focus. May (haha) I ask what this is in service of? I’m somewhat a fan of the thread-per-core model, so I’m curious as to wh

This reads an awful lot like the prompter had a semi-confusing time with some async, and had their favourite model write an upset blog post about it. I don't think these systems are perfect, nor are they fit for every use-case, but som

Plenty of companies, very much _want_ this. I agree, that work in these places is likely short lived, if for no other reason than working in them is awful and demoralising. My point is, that these places exist, and have such a hard-on for “

I give coastal piracy about 3-weeks to figure out how to commandeer unmanned cargo ships. I bet they’d be ecstatic.

Not if there’s good money to be made exploiting people for money instead! There’s plenty of evidence that these models worsen these issues, and we know from prior experience that companies like FB will happily exploit vulnerable users for m

Well this is a new brand of whataboutism I haven’t seen before! Did something bad? Better ablate yourself of the responsibility of holding people to account for making it _worse_! Acting this way just makes it seem more like you regret the

This is a cute argument to make, which patently doesn’t work in the face of decades of evidence on the pernicious effects of social media _alone_, let alone the “turbo infantilising sycophancy machine”. Pretending that everything’s totally

Somewhat of a self-fulfilling prophecy no? - nobody else with the skills - talk to machine - nobody develops the skills to have a conversation - go to step 1. - bonus step: your own skills atrophy too.

This is repeatedly the argument rolled out by people desperate to get us to accept it at all costs. Ai doesn’t technically stop me writing code. But it’s sucked so much joy and interest out of it, that I can’t scrape together the motivation
