The non-profit-good-for-humanity speech is such a hypocrisy. All incentives all different stakeholders (employees, leadership, board, investors) have are all aligned with the full for-profit side of the organization. In fact, that’s the onl

Congrats on the project! Here’s an idea to monetize it: implement collaborative filtering (example: funds in rows, assets in columns). Once you do it, you will be able to cluster similar funds. Let’s say X funds have the asset A, but Y fund

Totally. People tend to forget it's just code. In fact, these public failures from Google AI provide an important public service: they remind us that there's nothing magical about LLMs. It's just code, and it is hard as hell

Someone smart once said: If it is good, we call it "creativity." If it is bad, we call it "hallucination." This isn't a bug (or limitation, as the authors say). It's a feature.

Great comment. I bet there are at least two markets (or niches): 1. People who want the absolute best performance and the latest possible version and are willing to pay the premium for it; 2. People who want to trade performance by cost and
