Who cares if the model was free? No one said they were trying to commit fraud by releasing that model, they were trying to commit fraud by subtly advertising that their companies/products had the secret sauce to make state-of-the-art m

I don't trust Sahil and Matt. They tried to commit fraud, hype things up, but it got way too much attention than what they expected, so they tried to get away with just serving Claude/ChatGPT in the background but got caught. They

Are you telling me someone trained a huge model, and served it for hours to tons of users, and had only one instance of the checkpoint? I call BS. The model being open-source doesn't mean what they could have gotten away with, or tried

This is very common theme in a lot of chinese labs/research labs - they promise code until the paper is accepted and never really update the repo/share the code.

I don't know which company you are talking about, but every company I've worked at always had a two Yubikey policy.

Nope, not true at all. Go to eyebuydirect.com, enter any random prescription and buy those glasses. I've done this like 20 times, mostly because my prescriptions were from doctors outside United States. It's an American company. A

They and their partners (Boeing) are running more tests as we speak - probably expecting more data that could answer some questions.

It’s no secret that huge portion of all students are cheating or plagiarizing - let’s not pretend it’s only international students. My few data points being a TA for many years at a top engineering school: about 70% of the cases I reported

Thanks for sharing the link! Multimodal routing definitely changes the game, Imma go through the issue.

by alsodumb 2y ago
I don't think routing is that resource intensive, especially in transit setting where there are set number of stops (nodes) and the graph is fairly static - we can do tons of preprocessing and then routing queries would have minimal co

This project sucks ass - I know some research groups (non-engineering, they were more ag programs) who purchased it from them for a few thousand dollars and pretty much shelved it after a few months - unreliable hardware, buggy software, mi

Are you talking about mapping tunnels with drones? That's already done and it doesn't really need any 'AI': it's plain old SLAM. DARPA's subterranean challenge had many teams that did some pretty cool stuff in

I might be minority, but I am not that surprised by the results or the not so significant GPU hours. I've been video segment tracking for a while now using SAM for mask generation and some of the robust academic video-object segmentati

People are soon gonna comment here about how in the era of big companies with tons of money and data and compute going all in on AI, it's hard for new companies to achieve SoTA. My counterpoint: Anthropic was fairly small when it start

I don't think you can call Rocket Lab a competitor of SpaceX by any metric. Besides, look at the comments in the link you posted, it's pretty obvious that SpaceX isn't attacking them.

Why do I feel like Sam's 'her' tweet pretty much gave Scarlett Johansson's legal counsel all the ammo they needed lol.

Are the export controls to China geographically or any Chinese majority-owned entity? Either way, ByteDance has tons of offices everywhere in the world including Singapore, US, etc. Given the money, I don't think GPU access wouldn&#x27

You're absolutely right about ACT. What are your thoughts on diffusion policy line of work? In my personal experience, I found it way more robust than ACT. Have you had a chance to try it?

I found ChatGPT to be particularly good at these kinds of things - in most cases, it just knows what I'm talking about, despite very vague hints. And that part just blows my mind. Sure, LLMs can do fancy things these days, but the fact

Henry is obviously trying his best to pin this entire thing on an employee as a one-time incident that happened this Friday. Yet, he doesn't do anything to address the concerns that similar things happened to many other companies, even
