This is absolutely something I was running into with LLaMA. I'm curious if this potentially extends into that particular use case...

Just playing casually with NanoGPT ( https://github.com/karpathy/nanoGPT ) with a desktop holding a 2080ti, it's really really really clear to me that the path to get to a pre-fine-tuned LLM is remarkably easy. RLHF

Having a 4 month old sitting next to me as I write this, I think the prevailing opinion among my more woke friends with kids is, "screens are bad." As I read this, it seems to come to a correlative conclusion that screen time befo

What a fantastically enjoyable read. I really want to understand how this question arises and what's actually being tested and invented in coming to the solution to this. And, side note, this is absolutely going to be the strategy I us

It's probably way too late to get my two pennies into this discussion, but this is FANTASTIC news. Individual developers that want access to OPEN models for their building purposes shouldn't be beholden to a new corporate overlord

I'm super duper curious if there are ways to glob together VRAM between consumer-grade hardware to make this whole market more accessible to the common hacker?

I'm still waiting for Hacker News to band together and simply start building an open model that does not require a corporate daddy like OpenAI, Microsoft, Baidu, Google, or anyone else. These models have no place being owned by corpora

"The same is true for this note as the impacted teams are not yet finished making final decisions on precisely which roles will be impacted. Once those decisions have been made (our goal is to have this complete by mid to late April),

What exactly have they accomplished? Are they genuinely not building things that could result in improvements to Amazon's bottom line? I don't have a dog in this fight, but I think Amazon is screaming to investors, "wait, we

I'm very curious about this. Amazon appears to be squeezing more profitability from existing, very successful parts of the organization. In particular, AWS, Advertising, and Twitch are not loss leaders. I'm not really quite sure w

it feels weird not grabbing this directly from the openssl team. that's a gap in trust...

I think this is a clever way for OpenAI to trade access to GPT-4 and simultaneously decrease their own intellectual burden for their for-profit models. Here's the offending parts of the README.md: "For a limited time, we will be g

I'm curious about how we can get out of the game of using OpenAI's corporate solutions and find ways to open up access to these kinds of models for broader use by anyone. I don't want to be consumed by another corporation in

This doesn't seem inappropriate, but the news is moving so quickly here, I wonder if something published by NBC Bay Area yesterday at 5 PM is a particularly good source of information on how First Republic MAY or MAY NOT be failing.

This seems like a stupid question, but is anyone releasing binaries of OpenSSL for Windows environments? Is there an expectation that OpenSSL will take reigns in MacOS environments from LibreSSL?

It's interesting to see First Republic bank having this trouble. It seems clear (feel free to correct me) that they ALSO had massive loan portfolios at extremely low rates which have likely rapidly and seriously declined in value over

There's something wild here. There could be a run on this instrument and nobody could help. Systemic risk screams out here

Do you mean they've taken money from the fed to capitalize the bank already? I understood they were essentially giving money to the fed through their portfolio of purchases t-bonds.

Wasn't this a famously bad transaction for JPM?

by aliljet 4y ago
Very curious to understand how this works. For all intents and purposes, if the bank was unable to raise capital, it is at least nominally bankrupt. What value would another entity find in a bank that has failed? To be fair, the government

This seems like an odd question to ask, but in Oakland, CA, there are communities trying to do the exact opposite of this. Build CCTV systems to protect AGAINST gangs. I'm curious to know what hardware these guys used. Swords with two

AirBnB has a super core problem: hosts are in short supply. This leads the entire service to see guests as a secondary concern. This leads to a pretty obvious problem: opaque pricing, poor customer service (never trust me, check trustpilot)

Very curious, what if you had a 10gbe symmetric connection from your ISP? How would you modify your deployment?

Wait, how can I start sending my drone footage to them? This is cool?

by aliljet 4y ago
I've long wondered why we couldn't start collecting pure drone footage for this kind of data. Literally decentralize the collection of overhead imagery.

This should be renamed. Amazon has laid off 18,000 and this links to the memos from senior leadership at that company.

This is a curious decision. Microsoft shows a ~73 billion dollar net income [0] and it's probably reasonable to assume their shareholders are enjoying a robust, growing business. I wonder what they believe this reduction in staff is m

Airbnb seems to primarily be interested in protecting hosts instead of guests. It's probably much more structural than people realize. I'd really love to know from someone that's deep inside Airbnb why they could allow the se

This is a remarkably interesting image. How do these guys even get these shots? I'd love to do this on all kinds of things at home..

Whoa. People in the region have been incensed about the registrar's slow count. The NAACP has called for recounts in a very very tight mayoral election. And there's been some serious confusion about how ranked choice voting works.
