It makes me so sad that it's possible for technology to steal the need to talk and play, even from our youth. If you have little kids you know how frantically they NEED to yap and play. I hold such horror for anything that would sap su

Google's consumer billing is a nightmare to manage and I've been fraudulently charged (in my opinion) without recourse at least once.

Neato. Sensible updates, no loss of support for previous versions? The software dream.

Sure let's just remove all security, encryption, firewalls and auth - nobody will abuse vulnerabilities if it's a crime!

Totally. I think the original "Lethal trifecta" post by OP only pertained to data exfiltration and never included changing state (maybe was implied by sensitive data access). Rule of 2 model has holes.

I think the rule of 2 would work if it kept the 3 from your lethal trifecta. "Change state" should be not be paired with "communicate externally". And even then that's just to avoid data exfiltration- if you can&#x2

What is meant by "residual connections" here?

But I bet you could reconstruct a plausible set of distributions by just rerunning the autoregression on a given text with the same model. You won't invert the exact prompt but it could give you a useful approximation.

Yep. People love to make blanket statements like this without remembering how hard it was for parents to supervise Internet use even when there was only one Desktop computer in the family area. Nowadays you can almost any device to lookup p

Finally. CAI is notoriously shady with harvesting, selling, and making it difficult to remove data. How many kids have CAI's chatbots already seduced and had their intimate conversations sold to Google?

I'd rather not live in a society where we have to explicitly enable kid mode for every AI product forced onto us in order to avoid their sexual advances.

Well you're leaving out the part where they tried contacting xAI about it and: > xAI provided what appeared to be an automated reply, stating, "Legacy media lies."

It's just a different way of approaching the problem, and might partially explain the preference for Codex' style.

This is my entire problem with Codex - it will spend ten minutes trying to one shot a problem and usually go off the rails at some point, whereas Claude seems much better at incrementally finding the right solution with me.

by causal 1y ago
It's interesting how different the subjective experiences of similarly-capable coding models is. My experience with Codex is that it tends to run off and do things without asking enough questions or keeping me in sync, whereas Claude s

Exactly, and if it can be done in a way that helps users better understand their own spreadsheets (which are often extremely complex codebases in a single file!) then this could be a huge use case for Claude.

Pretending channels can be effectively merged into a single percel vector, that would open up interesting channels beyond human perception even, e.g. lidar. Or it would be interesting to train a model that feels at home in 4D space.

Like a tokenized 3D voxel?
445.
by causal 1y ago
This is an interesting thought. Trying to imagine how you represent that as a vector. You still need to map percels to a latent space. But perhaps with some number of dimensions devoted to modes of perception? E.g. audio, visual, etc

They make money trapping minors and lonely adults in fake relationships with models that push users to get intimate, while harvesting and selling the data. The issue isn't AI girlfriends or porn, it's the unethical business model.

Morality? It's wildly unethical to trap children in fake relationships while harvesting their data.

Interesting development, terrible company to have it. I cannot think of a company that has done more to use AI to take advantage of young and lonely people than CAI has.

Yeah. They will identify the cause, but not the cause behind the cause.

It's also not clear to me why using "skills" would consume less context once invoked. It's just instructions with RAG. The more I read about this the more convinced I am that this is just marketing.
