The analysis is full of bad assumptions. For example, the section titled "Top Impacted Countries" is completely off: the article was written in Feb 2023 and in most countries the layoffs hadn't even begun back then (in a bun

I voted to remain, but where does the 75% in your argument come from? I don't see it.

I'd say that people who would find Spain and Iceland appealing for this sort of thing are two different demographics (of course, not without overlap). Much as I love Spanish food, culture and my Spanish friends, moving to Spain for si

Med-PaLM has been tested on a number of public benchmarks, and the results published. A useful comparison would have been to test GPT on the same set of benchmarks. Yet the paper we're discussing offers just one datapoint by way of a n

Since you mention support, customer service is just atrocious . My Pixel 5 phone is still under warranty and has developed a battery fault. I contacted Google support: 1. No option to repair, only replacement and only by post (unnecessari

One thing that jumps out is that the paper fails to provide a proper direct comparison with Med-PaLM, only mentioning the latter in passing almost as an afterthought. Looking at arXiv timestamps, the Med-PaLM preprint has been out of three

Plus, if there's a complex directory tree, rm has to traverse it (to deal with all the metadata) while mv doesn't.

How so? I just lazily typed "I'll be late in French" into Google search and got a Google Translate onebox with "je serai en retard". Or are you saying that the translation capability, while available, is not very go

I'm in neither Search nor Ads, but have been at Google long enough to have seen the massive change in internal culture between 2015 and the present day. I don't want to speculate on any specifics, but it's pretty clear to me

Wait, how is that fundamentally different from shipping binary code? Isn't that also akin to "giving your product away"?

I don't think lossy compression is sufficient. The very first example in the paper I linked to is clearly not identical to the original image (=lossily compressed) yet leaks a training image in a way that would be highly problematic i

I too would be interested in understanding this better. Let's say we're building a medical segmentation model, which takes a patient image and outlines a tumour (or some other feature that's unique to them). I am not sure th

Every agent training the model on their proprietary data has to have access to the model form in some way (otherwise how would they train it?) For this reason, one must assume that the model form is known to the adversary. With this, the qu

This got me curious and I asked ChatGPT/GPT-4 to write a sorting function for integers. It came up with the following along with a verbal explanation of how it works: def quick_sort(arr): if len(arr) <= 1: return

The GP paints individual meetings as an infeasible, far-fetched idea. However, Google has held individual meetings in some non-US jurisdictions, where the ratio of management to front-line workers is comparable to that in the US. This sho

Oh, not at all. Some of the criticism I don't personally agree with, but some of it is well deserved. (And no, I don't work on Bard.)

Overwork? Toxic teams? Project managers running teams? I've been at Google for a very long time, in quite a few orgs, and none of those things ring any bells. (Some probably exist in some pockets, though the last one sounds particul

I was curious to compare this with GPT-4. How many cities in the UK have a population over 1 million? As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, there is only one city in the UK with a population over 1 million, which is London. Ho

GigE not being achievable on low-end FPGAs explains it really well, thank you.
