You don’t own your marriage either? What exactly is the distinction you’re trying to make here, that you can hang onto your marriage even if your spouse doesn’t want it?

You used the word reinforcing, and then asserted there's no reward function. Can you explain how it's possible to perform RL without a reward function, and how the LLM training process maps to that?

If training is cheaper, then costs go down and models become both cheaper and more profitable. Training be scaled up to make the models smarter and larger. Distillation can bring those benefits to smaller models. Training is a pure cost - i

Statistically, senior engineers are less likely to accept AI suggestions compared to juniors. This is just a tidbit of supporting evidence for the suggestion that juniors are not properly reading and criticizing the ai output.

All of the top upvoted comments are calling or implying this is a bubble. It seems to me the majority loves to imagine themselves persecuted in their home turf.

That's not a stable equilibrium if the hits have a large enough effect with respect to the movement of the balls. The internal circle will create disturbances against both sides of the inner circle, but the outer ball will have to trav

Wow, look at the crowd of NN doubters in the comments there. I see the quality of foresight in the commentariat hasn’t improved given the state of this thread, either.

Yes, Google uses trunk based development for almost everything. Even Android is now on trunk based development (previously a branchy mess) and heavily uses sets of feature flags for promotion / demotion through quality lifecycles. I’m

I don’t understand why PRs are being discussed here at all – doesn’t anyone serious use trunk based development with code reviews? How is that different from a PR? Seems like we need to disentangle the discussion of whether code review is g

When forced to point to a concrete issue by tooling, I often just end up rewording it - "Ideally this should X, but it Y". Comments are fine, lower overhead and don't require re-triaging later, and have all the context to imm

The standard model is computable, so no. Physical law does not allow for non-computable behavior.

Can you explain in what way the incentives are misaligned here? Or did that mis- prefix slip in there because of how you feel overall about the law?

Are you intentionally sandbagging the LLMs to prove a point, or do you really think 4o-mini is good enough for programming? Even 2.5 flash easily gets this https://imgur.com/a/OfW30eL

No, it's always strictly worse because you could have bought bonds or deployed the capital in some other way with that money.

or, hear me out, organic machines have conscious experience because existence itself is divine. Humans don't have a special soul separate from the universe, they have a soul because they are the universe: materialism.

That argument might make sense if Bing was as good, but Bing is worse. Wasting money building a bad product does not entitle you to market share.

This post is a very weak and incoherent criticism of a well formulated benchmark: task length bucket for which a model succeeds 50% of the time. Gary says: - This is just the task length that the models were able to solve in THIS dataset. W

In principle, Math proofs are another relatively easy to verify problem. In the extreme case, you can express any math proof as a computer-verifiable formalism — no intelligence necessary. Step back one step, and you could have a relatively

Why not make the strong model compile a non-ai-driven test execution plan using selectors / events? Is Moondream that good?

100 years optimistically!? That's an incredibly pessimistic timeline, maybe one of the most hardline "nothing ever happens" outlooks I've ever heard articulated.
