This works great for many purposes. One area where it does not work well at all is modifying photographs of people's faces.* Completely fumbles if you take a selfie and ask it to modify your shirt, for example. * = unless the people ar

I'm not a python expert, but this feels very odd to me (both the * init* construction and the return [tgemm.mm]( http://tgemm.mm/ )(input, self.weight, self.bias, None, None) call, which looks like markdown to me:

Thanks for posting this. My gut reaction was to say "no, this is a law: the Hatch Act." But the Hatch Act covers partisan political activity while on duty, which is distinct from commercial activity. As you noted, commercial activ

That's a misunderstanding. This is not a "blog"; this is a press release from a university on its newsfeed. Linking to their own researcher's work is not a matter of being "rigorous" and is unrelated (and not a

To give you a better understanding of how this works, if my university didn’t include a link to my research in the press release about my publication, I’d contact them to issue a correction. That’s how fundamental it is to link to the resea

I'm perplexed by this university press release. Do they really not link to the underlying research article that they're discussing?

The front page of Reuters right now is a story about a major presidential proposal[1]. I think that is certainly headline news in the traditional sense. Still, it would be nice if there were additionally a news wire that didn't cover

A few responses: - Since when have the radiologists ever been worse than AI at reading images? - AI is doing mechanical tasks for the radiologists, so it stands to reason that this makes radiologist more efficient. - The radiologist is a li

I remember when Hinton said that that we should "stop training radiologists now" in 2016[1]. Meanwhile, radiologists are in high demand and are getting paid better than ever. I believe the same will be true for programmers in the

I turned these summaries off, but then turned them back on because I find them humorous. A bit notable: the AI summarization of spam texts makes them seem much more credible.

The gemini result is great. I modified your prompt to encourage more detail ("Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle. The degree of detail should be surprisingly high and should spark delight for the viewer.") This is what

I think you misunderstand me. I’m not telling them to give up or expressing hope that they don’t succeed. I’m identifying what I see as a major barrier to adoption. I’d be interested in a response that addresses those points.

FZROX gives me 0% fees, can be bought in my retirement accounts, and is attached to a company with something like $1 trillion AUM. The latter gives me faith that it will still be around next year. I appreciate that the 0% fee options are li

Seems like something that would be worth pinging OpenAI about because it's a pretty important claim that they are making on their pricing page! Unless it's a matter of counting tokens differently.

According to the pricing page, 32K context is for Plus users and 128K context is for Pro users. Not disagreeing with you, just adding context for readers that while you are explaining that the 4o API has 128K window, the 4o ChatGPT agent

Pro does have longer context windows , specifically 128k. Take a look at the pricing page for this information: https://openai.com/chatgpt/pricing/

If this is also available via API, then I could easily see myself keeping the $20/mo pro and supplementing with API-based calls to the $200/mo Pro model as needed.
