Could it just be neural translation? It existed since the mid 2010s.

It seems that llama.app is a direct competitor to ollama.com I can understand the desire for the llama.cpp project to want to own the end user relationship, it is true that previous to this they were a tool provider and not really owning th

Your claim here is wrong: > 2. The State of NY files for a temporary restraining order requiring Kalshi to halt trading nationally, not just in NY. The State of New York did *NOT* file a temporary restraining order, neither in NY or nati

Sorry this reads as if the founders currently have no clue how eyeglasse frames are made. They are proposing a 3d printing workflow but all eyeglass frames are made of metal with screw holes and hinge pieces and usually additional material

TL;DR summary: The drug cut inflammation markers (IL-6, CRP) as intended but didn't reduce cardiovascular events or deaths versus placebo. This undermines the "inflammation causes atherosclerosis" thesis.

The improved efficiency is great! The Apple Neo was still 2x faster for graphics and around 1.4x faster for single core cpu. And remember the Apple Neo is running an iPhone CPU that is much slower than the M series. It is strange that this

Modern systems are complex. AI is able to thoroughly search for issues across very large surface areas. The only real way to protect will be to use AI to search for holes before other AIs find them. This type of analysis is really hard f

Weird given how much Oracle has bet on AI, both in terms of data centres and in terms of layoffs.

FYI I find that Whisper is far from the best transcription models out there as well. I did a bunch of testing and I found that Assembly AI's transcription models are significant better than Whisper and even ElevenLabs. I guess I now

Isn't the ocean filled with salt and already knows how to biologically degrade fish? I sort of think that you could deposit this at sea somehow, just need to spread it out sufficiently. I am sure I am overlooking something that would

We are sort of lucky that AIs right now require so much specialized compute+weight storage that we can easily "unplug" them remotely when they misbehave. I wonder if that will always be something we can do? If they could bring th
