The paper has a “preliminary scaling law” diagram. The shape of the graph is the same, but with 20% fewer FLOPS. The real breakthrough is that Hyena apparently has an unlimited context window.

Skeptical you should be, but I’m optimistic. We have papers showing that knowledge in these models can be edited and deleted. Sam Altman makes the point that too much compute is being spent on using the LLM as a database. Thinking about how

No, there’s an underlying logic and underlying settings that are still accessible. But transparently wrapped around that there’s a “good Clippy” who can teach, interpret, and orchestrate those settings with a CUI (conversational UI, pronoun

You’ll have to then have an LLM explain the code to you. However, that should also mean that the code can be translated into better quality code, and then that would be what’s run in production.

I imagine that a web service could be specified in one file. At the top, a description of the service, including the language it is to be written in and how it will be built and deployed. Then an outline of the endpoints and their functiona

If billions of people chose to do nothing but barbecue and watch TV for their entire lives because we automated the entire economy, I would be 100% okay with that.

I would try to establish a friendship with them rather than trying to transactionally extract some useful knowledge. Consider what you can offer them rather than what they can offer you. “Would you let me buy you coffee or lunch some time?”
