Don't you find it surprising that seemingly the largest firms don't use RLHF to prevent LLM writing from sounding like LLM writing?

There's some guy advertising a toothpaste on Instagram right now that supposedly does kill one(?) of these specific microbes, but it's like, OK, so what? You still have to brush your teeth. So maybe there's development in thi

I feel like we're going to see a lot of cool reimplementation stuff like this in coming years because the barriers to replicate output are so much lower with generative tech. Really cool work.

I wonder if it's primarily that developers are too lazy to design anything? I remember low-quality developers relying on Bootstrap and not making a modicum of effort to design a website. Of course, if you're that lazy, you're

Can you give us negative filters? Literally nothing but Mexican food listings in my area.

I'm just ready for something new, personally. I don't really like Discord's vibe of paying for avatar skins? Gross. And paying for custom emojis? Super gross. Yuck.

Someone has to crawl the web, and it's not the LLMs themselves.

First we started by extending chain-of-thought to a formal thinking system. You could extend this again with a "thought scratch-pad" or "thinking draft" with n-number of passes without needing to train backspace tokens.

This is measurably worse in every way if only by saying you've thrown out everyone's existing mail stacks. No, no one wants to do that.

The average programmer isn’t falling into pits of success with auto vectorization. And you’re using languages like Python or Lua and not using a dependency that uses it for you, forget about it.

I wonder… Can sufficient demand from a few parties destroy demand in other categories to a sufficient degree that it affects net demand entirely?

I wish I could link it, but I had also read another strategy for reasoning effort, perhaps the most naive implementation, described as whether or not you ignored or accepted the end of sequence token, n-times, n being some count of subseque

I found the same thing funny with Computer Use from OpenAI. It struggled to open and close Spotify. So dangerous! I can't believe they let the public use this technology! /s

It does make me wonder if these firms, some or all, are saving some announcements to coincide with others that hit venues like HN. Companies like Nvidia surely aren't waiting, but OpenAI and Anthropic have unusual timing.

I also didn’t like that, said as much, and had a bunch of people downvote me because I said I didn’t want my utility company playing politics.

My God! You're practically a terrorist and should be on a watchlist! Who knows what you'll ask next? "Who is the surgeon to the boy?"

Huh, I guess if you don’t have human employees you don’t need human customers. Thanks for the heads up!

This is a time when I don’t want HN to rewrite an article’s title. I understand why the mods do it, but I don’t appreciate it. It’s your space, but it’s not your article.

Considering one of ASML's machines supposedly costs half a billion dollars to produce, yeah, $20k is piss to ASML. They could literally sell shares at some fraction of a fraction of ownership, effectively printing money for no voting r

You can simplify your question even more: To everyone praising free and open source software, if software companies don't make money, how are they and YOU going to get paid, PERIOD?

I was confused about how this was written in the article. Sure, include system time, or a simple get current time tool, whatever, it’s inconsequential for the most part, but who is out here changing datetimes in a conversation and invalidat

By the time you’re sawzall’ing a design it’s not a clean room process.

Why are people designing such thoughtless websites?

by bellowsgulch 3mo ago
Clean-room design isn’t a thing in manufacturing.

by bellowsgulch 3mo ago
Yes, but how do we know specific manufacturing processes weren’t in employee contracts like, “If you leave Apple you can’t utilize the invisible weld process invented here for the iMac.” I mean regardless of whether it’s a trade secret, you
