I would summarize it as follows: Nvidia has taken the bottom-up approach. From (parallel processing) hardware to their development environment developed upon it. The competition (Intel) appears to be attempting to break into the market usin

That is assuming exponential growth inevitably leads to overshoot & collapse, which is a flawed zero-sum perspective. Growth (adding value) doesn't necessarily have to come at the cost of resources.

The real problem here was the overall software architecture and development workflow that apparently wasn't geared towards building 2.0-alpha versions of a component while still keeping the 1.0 version untouched.

It being "alive" is sort of what AGI implies (depending on your definition of life). Now consider the training has caused it to have undesirable behavior (misaligned with human values).

Maybe not instantly. But there's a version where they don't agree with certain decisions and will now be more open to other opportunities.

It does and that's what makes the nonsense of cookie consent laws. How are you going to keep track of the user's preference of "no" to cookie tracking? It's the browser saving the data, not the website.

It's probably not fair to say futurism laid the groundwork for fascism. There was an intersection between those two movements. But Futurism wasn't a core principle within Fascism's final form (other than breaking from traditi

So the problem isn't Scrum; it's that most implementations of Scrum aren't true to its principles, often bending or breaking the rules. Examples: * Having a UX designer role that's not part of the Scrum team * (Those) pe

Thanks. I'm currently using the API models (even GPT 3.5 16K) for things that require a larger context. So much for "Priority access to new features and improvements" as advertised with Plus.

Last I checked: - GPT-4 (ChatGPT Plus): has max 4K tokens ? - GPT-4 API: has max 8K tokens (for most users atm) - GPT-3.5 API: has max 16K tokens I'd consider the 32K GPT-4 context the most valuable feature. In my opinion OpenAI should

It doesn't make sense to compare countries on a per capita basis. China has the bigger emission deficit. Therefore China should have the earlier overshoot date. It doesn't matter how many people live there.

I would imagine it a security risk to allow attackers accessing the DOM through WASM. Adding complexity to the sandbox environment.

There's a difference between the concept of being unapologetic and using specific words. GPT will reach the concept of making the apology not knowing what words are going to be generated for it. You need to instruct GPT in concepts: Us

Are we feeling threatened by LLM's? The negativity towards ChatGPT is very unfounded. The bottom line is that ChatGPT is providing value in many ways. It's true it has no concept of a specific question and answer. It's true i
