You’re ignoring Jevons paradox. Everyone, both people and companies, will be making exponentially more software with these tools. Software that both needs to get created, debugged and updated to realize the intention of it. That’s what our

Apple has a solid hardware business and massive profits from their App Store tax, they are not dependent on ad business in the way Google is. Very different incentives.

Sounds neat but what kind of range limits would that impose on each trip? Switching from one means of transportation to another, even if both are buses, increases the total travel time significantly. Not to mention all the hassle involved f

This 100%. It should be seen as critical infrastructure because of everything it can enable when run well.

Sounds like you're fighting the weights. What would it take to align the setup with what the LLM expects?

Hard disagree. Python is so simple anyone can get up and running with coding in a few lines in the REPL.

Hallucinations and output quality are two different problems. Hallucinations are usually expressed in perfect sounding sentences by the LLM, that's what makes it so convincing to end users.

I agree. And I also know how much of that experience comes from having a legal dept. that are collaborative and supportive of what the tech org wants to do. Which I suspect is quite rare.

> I keep hearing that LLMs are trained on "Internet crap" but is it true? Karpathy repeated this in a recent interview [0], that if you'd look at random samples in the pretraining set you'd mostly see a lot of garbage

Nice unlock to hyperinflate their way to $100B. I'd buy an AGI spoon but preferably before hyperinflation hits. I'd expect forks to outcompete the spoons though.

Definitely a choice to give it low memory bandwidth. Probably to avoid customers thinking it can replace any data center GPU for inference use-cases.

How is that different from Google Chrome? Not debating that it's scary to have all that context collected in one place, just saying it's already been status quo on the web for years.

In the tech industry, open source has clearly won. You're right that most end users don't particularly care. The engineers building solutions definitely care, and prefer to build on top of open source dependencies.

That's clinging to straws. Many of us still prefer to call it Twitter since the new name makes no sense, especially when placed in a sentence.

Cutting Google accounts out of your life, however, is an entirely different undertaking that would take much longer and have a big impact on how you use the web.

In the Nordics almost everything that gets passed as law has been thorough studies of impact and consequence first. Takes a long time but means the law has a chance of actually having the intended effect.

Framework desktop with AMD Strix Halo [1] are getting there as a viable alternative. Offering up to 96 GB of unified RAM at the moment, so still a gap up to the beefiest Mac Studio alternatives though. [1]: https://frame.work

My preferred approach to avoid that outcome is to divide & conquer the problem. Ask the LLM to implement each small bit in the order you'd implement it yourself given what you know about the codebase.
