I think it depends on the type of content. I've primarily used ChatGPT for additional explanations of programming terms (e.g. C++ lambdas & capturing local variables, validated against my code and other sources). The results from

An alternative view is that OpenAI specifically needs to build hype to get more investment and is spending massive amounts of money to provide ChatGPT for free, in order to do so [0]. The unanswered question for Google is how to future evol

There are, such as pauper. I’ve also heard of playing with a total $ limit per deck, at time of construction. The main limiting factor is what you can convince folks to play. Game stores have the main formats, and unknown amounts of money

I agree with your view that nuclear weapons on both sides prevent war. However, they’ve only ever been developed by a small number of capable and motivated nations, with considerable resources involved. The later ones (North Korea, Pakista

I feel it’s important to properly look at the context of the layoffs. The original article leads with mentioning the recent layoffs at Microsoft, Google, and Amazon. These are people who were making great money, and now have those companie

I find this line of argument frustrating, personally. Yes, memory safe languages have bugs. But, we’ve been spared a world where big enterprise Java apps also have a bunch of trivial stack buffer overflows, in addition to log4j issues. It’

To take the strongest form of the author’s argument, his point is that it’s not possible to take a pile of terrible code with no security, and fix all the problems in it. It’s better to architect it in a way that provides security (e.g lea

What’s the current state of the art for electric charging times? There’s a big difference in frequent 5 minute stops for gas, where a 30 minute charge would be a deal breaker.

Fair, thanks for pointing that out. Having looked around for other info on Binance being cut from SWIFT, both articles on that website seem to me to be "technically true, but written to be misleading".

The biggest thing is being deliberate about your threat model. Who would want to get onto your systems, and how much do they care about you in particular? From there, take appropriate actions. For the vast, vast majority of us, that means

I'm reminded of the somewhat recent news of a line of Alzheimer's research being based on a fabricated paper that was only caught many years later [0]. Previously, we've relied on a number of heuristics to determine if someth

If a run on a theoretically partially backed Tether, the initial folks trying to redeem would get fully paid out from the reserves. This would be done in an effort to make Tether seem stable, with the hope that people regain confidence, an

In that scenario, I agree that the price of other cryptos in Tether will go up, if Tether seems like it's actively collapsing. However, that'd be due to Tether's perceived value being significantly less than 1 normal US doll

Something existing for a long time increases the probability of it being stable, but does not guarantee it. It could be that Tether falls apart in a certain set of conditions that just has not happened yet, such as FTX/Alameda being e

by albntomat0 4y ago
The probability of Tether collapsing and Bitcoin going to/beyond its previous peak are definitely different. They're also quite possibly inversely correlated (e.g. Tether collapsing could also tank Bitcoin).

Poking around their website, OpenAI sells API access to DALL-E, and a range of language models. Github Copilot also uses an OpenAI ML model. Their valuation comes from expectations of the value of future iterations of those.

It seems to me that such a split could be because OpenAI has decided that ChatGPT needs to be public to get hype, partners, investment, training data, etc. Google many not need or want those things. It's definitely possible that ChatG

Interesting, thanks for sharing! I wonder how LaMDA compares performance wise to ChatGPT. I definitely understand why training on Github is an advantage, but I'd expect Google to also be great at getting a good dataset, across the ran

What is the relative difficult of each required part in training GPT3/ChatGPT? E.g. where is OpenAI's moat, and how wide is it? Is it in model design (now published), data set, engineering needed to train it, cost of hardware need

To me, mining has always been about having resources, to buy and maintain hardware, server space, electricity, etc. What’s the real difference, other than lag time for PoW?

In languages with dynamic properties on objects, it’s a data structure that keeps track of which properties are present, and how to access them. Short example In JavaScript: Var a = {}; a.b = 15; The hidden class object a maps the property

The game theory around grades is interesting. I went to a well regarded US CS school for a masters, and we were told essentially that "Being good enough to get in here means you're smart and capable, and being middle of the pack h
