One of the key points of the article is "I feel FPV drones to be mostly a failure because their success rate is low" Why is that a failure? If one 500$ drone has even only 10% success rate, if the target is a 1M$ equipment it&#x27

I've read Bertrand Russell's "A History of Western Philosophy" and it's the first ever philosophy book that I didn't drop after 10 pages, because of 2 things: 1- He's logic (or at least has the same STEM k

Certainly not, it's actually possible to add 3 float32 numbers with 90% precision using AI! With a recent breakthrough, the team is working on pushing that to 10, we have enough cracked engineers to hope to make it happen soon!

There's already a lot of info in there: model architecture and mechanics. Using the model to generate synthetic data also allows to distil its reasoning power into other models that you train, which is very powerful. On top of these, Q

-> Power outage -> Wild guess that Russia has been doing it, 0 proof or even hint -> "This is a war of agression, we should respond" Are you suggesting to attack Russia, based on absolute thin air?

If only one thing it's his series of books Jesus of Nazareth: the only theology book I've ever read, it clarified so much about the Scriptures, and was written from the point of view of a world-class scholar, much more scientific

Are you pointing to another pope with "another symbolic figure with empty gestures"? Would be clearer to name him then! Having read a bit of the previous pope Benedict XVI I liked a lot what he did/wrote

It seems to me that MCP alone could already allow the main use case claimed by A2A, which is an agent assigning a task to another agent: if you put an agent behind a MCP server, an agent can query it as if it was another tool, and voila, yo

Djikstra's clarity of expression and thoguht is indeed impressive. One nuance : he seems to completely equate ease of language with ability to do undetectable mistakes. I disagree: I know people whose language is extremely efficient at

As a total noob in this domain, general evidence of increased sleep and muscle recovery with creating points me towards taking some, just to be more efficient at work: any counterarguments ?

How does it match the definition of facism? From what I know fascism has components like having the collective prime over the individual, and cult of personality, that Trump's administration does not have. (Before you think I'm a

No it's not: their model is only on GPT-4.5 level on a few, saturated/cherry-picked benchmarks.

by aubanel 2y ago
yes, which suggests they'll keep going down! So I'd expect GPT-4.5 to be 90% cheaper in 1-2 years

by aubanel 2y ago
The price is not that insane when you remember that GPT-4 cost 36$/million input tokens at launch!

Then please switch for a product made by the EU. Call me when you've read through 300 pages of documentation to discover there was no product.

Microsoft is certainly much better at judging the value of a software than any european administration.

Many seem to fear the brutality of these methods. But could massive institutions be reformed continuously by fixing every problem carefully à la Chesterton's Fence ? I think not: admistrations only grow like a cancer until they are suc
