There's a lot of chatter on other forums and Reddit about the same thing happening to Astra over the last couple of weeks.

Interesting, but it misses a lot in not factoring social dynamics (which the author admits). IMO the greatest Survivor player of all time was JT Thomas in Season 18. The guy was a down-to-earth cattle rancher from Alabama, and he was so goo

According to industry leaders, we currently have AGI and RSI in the last month or so. Of course, we've seen zero evidence of any of this and have to take their word for it.

Forget every possible thing. Has anything yet worked and been profitable?

It feels like parody because it’s something similar but worse: delusion.

Altman owns significant personal stakes in core technology, chip, and energy infrastructure sectors. His job is to hype AI so that the companies that supply the infrastructure behind it increase in value. When OAI becomes insolvent because

After experiencing the singularity of AGI that is Astra (that's sarcasm in case it wasn't obvious), I think this should be read in a slightly different way. What Dario is trying to say is that gains are slowing down with each gene

I mean honestly, that's the problem. I'm actually not seeing the world changing. What specific advances in robotics, unsolved maths, and software have LLMs provided? What is the finished result that affects everyday life? In all c

In case it's not obvious, now would be the time to sell all AI related stocks.

This is an element of the delusion. The koolaid drinkers will all tell you that we're on the edge of AGI, but if you ask them for simple examples of breakthroughs made by current AI, they can name none. The entire thing absolutely wrea

>I think we're very close to the point where AI-driven breakthroughs outside of pure math and software start to really affect the world. What are you basing this on? What specific breakthroughs have convinced you of this trajectory?

It’s because you do less memorable things, so there are less milestones to judge the time by. When you’re young, you don’t have to try so hard as many things are new and exciting. As you get older, you get a career, fall into autopilot mode

I don’t understand who so many people seem surprised by this. 2023 was when we first started experimenting with linking two LLMs together to have them chat back and forth. Nothing really interesting there - they don’t care if they’re talkin

My wife, who is not involved in tech at all, asked me about the Huggingface incident when it popped up on her Instagram feed.

You can also do a volumetric taper if you don’t have an accurate milligram scale (and none of the ones on Amazon are accurate). Dissolve a larger, known amount of medicine in a known amount of water or propylene glycol, depending upon solub

It's a narrative to pump the stock. Nothing more. Nvidia could have build out this infrastructure themselves for less than 1% of the cost, but it wouldn't have a name like Huggingface does.

by IAmGraydon 1mo ago
I'm no expert, but I'm guessing it's the fact that there's no actual thinking going on and it's AI generated slop designed to manipulate LLMs and subsequently the populace.

I have a feeling a lot of people here read the headline, hit the paywall, and had a reaction. This is just the ridiculous estimate of TAM that every IPO contains, and it's always a complete clown show. Uber set their TAM at $6T in 2019

80% of bonds are held domestically, and it's what US banks use to back deposits. If the US government stops paying its debt, your money in the bank will vaporize. And no, the FDIC won't be able to restore it. That's among the

I've long held the belief that humans cannot truly create. We just remix and recombine. This is interesting - although I'm not religious, many religious texts call god the "Creator", perhaps because the ability to truly
