"we don’t say that the car has become a better runner" We would if the car was to race against human runners. It's just word play. Cars are not used like runners, so we use different words. They definitely are better runners.

I'm taking the liberty to spread my most recent words of visionary wisdom here. (/s) One of my main issues with these guys is their context window. Their memory. It's hard to see a LLM working on a code-base a few thousand to

I agree. There is something special about layering these guys. To me this is like we are looking at a static combustion engine without the vehicle. “How is this useful?” It’s that I’m not sure what the best approach is here. Waiting for oth

I have used it for 2 months and disabled it. So there is your exception. The code it suggests is always highly suspect and writing raw code never was the problem in the first place (for me). I was “discussing” with it for far longer than it

Yes, you copy it (do what they did). Not take photographs of their work.

The focus on leaning on “giants” and not being creative is a bit too much for my taste. I kind of get it, but it feels off. “Those giants are more intelligent than me. They are harder working than me. How can I reach their level as quickly

Dall-E was a few months later. I don’t want to be obtuse, but I am into this topic for quite a while and progress is actually kind of slow to me. Society is still hung up on (to me) minor and extremely uninteresting issues. I’m getting tire

GPT3 is from 2020. I know ChatGPT is slightly novel, but let’s not exaggerate.

At what point can we just say that understanding “patterns of moves” is understanding chess? It seems you suggest there is more to it, but maybe I am mistaken.

Again, not enough for 1400. 800 maybe.

by SanderNL 4y ago
Humans don’t, but that is an unnecessary bar IMO.

by SanderNL 4y ago
You don’t get to 1400 like that. The amount of moves it has to literally remember is stupendous.

It isn’t healthy. Both for the individual and society, but that is my opinion of course. Nothing objective about it.

Using a raw "unprompted" GPT is a bit unsophicated and the result will be bland. It's basically - in these cases - limited to your creativity. Ask it to summarize only the most interesting arguments or analogies. You need t

The bubble is strong here. Some job at “big tech” is not the same as “tech job”. I don’t recognize this and if I did I would be out of there in no time. I work for smaller companies so I have a different viewpoint. Some slack I can understa

It seems pretty obvious to me that you chain these guys together. Personality module, planning module, decision making module, internal monologue module.. boatloads of them all blabbering to each other. How you connect them to each other is

GPT4: This code is an implementation of the Fast Inverse Square Root algorithm, which is a method for approximating the inverse square root of a given floating-point number, 1/sqrt(x). This method is well-known for its use in the 3D co

They train on years of real-time streaming video. Feedback loops all over the place. Higher order structures and rules all get learned way, way before they even are able to touch a book. I cannot phantom the amount of data and analyses th

Non-verbal experiences are easier to communicate non-verbally. (Breaking news!) But, I'd like to see someone try to communicate the Bhagavad Gita or the history of F=ma in visuals using the same amount of bits as text.

I too have zero qualifications, but I think “text” is slightly more complicated - from an information theoretical perspective - than we give it credit for. A letter carries significantly more information than a pixel. One word can change th

Your examples are all physical. Delegating physical action comes natural because we don’t define ourselves by it. We are not strong and not fast. We do not care either, so long as we have tools to help us gain advantage. Cognition however i

To be fair, that's the novelty factor and when this hits "the public" it is not unthinkable that there'll be some "productivity issues". IMO it is like finding a computer in a world without them. It is mind-b

There's definitely overlap between those concepts. There are also some differences. I guess it depends on the nature of that specific job if it's "blue collar" or not. I get the feeling from the poster that they are in a

The short answer is get a job that is actually interesting. I'm sad to say that - IMHO - software engineering as a profession is not looking too great right now. My long answer is that the job is - despite the money - quite "blue

I was on the waiting list for a long, long time. The waiting and their "safety" features left a bad taste. Now I can't even be bothered. Thanks Stable Diffusion!

I'm like you, in my thirties and this topic resonates so I'll add something. The word "loneliness" is quite loaded. I find I'm more lonely now that I have my own family then when I didn't. I know, weird, but th

GPT3 knows this is the fast inverse square root. Don't know about codex though, guess it does too.

Thank god, finally found someone with the same issue. This is incredibly frustrating. I'm also wondering why the news coverage of this is so abysmal. In the Netherlands there is very little if any awareness of this, in my bubble at lea
