There is no skepticism. LLMs are fundamentally lossy and as a result they’ll always give some wrong result/response somewhere. If they are connected to a data source, this can reduce the error rate but not eliminate it. I use LLMs but

The reason they don’t want a CBDC is to be able to collect interest on behalf of the people holding the currency. If the state launches a blockchain CBDC, the state will profit. It’s too much money not to corrupt the most powerful people on

I agree with the premise that on a tech basis, a centralized ledger is just as good, if not better, than a decentralized one. The problem stablecoins are solving are self-inflicted: KYC to open a bank account, restricted nationalities, acco

Malaysia has duitnow which they recently started making it international. You can buy a coffee in Thailand with a duitnow wallet (ie: BigPay). It is also integrated with AliPay, so you can pay wherever AliPay is accepted (most of China). I

If you read the comments on the GitHub issue, the guys seems more than reasonable. My understanding is that they want you pay if you are making money. My guess if you are just a one-person show with a just-started product, they probably w

Cities had guards. There was no border pre-1900 because there was no tech to enforce it. If you moved from one place to another, you were mostly at the whims of thieves and pirates.

It plays on Trump’s argument that other countries are paying the tariffs and most people don’t want to admit they were wrong and Trump was right. That being said, it’s too early to call it.

It all comes down to who has leverage. The difference is being squeezed by the US government to collect revenue. But I’d suspect not all items will have the same dynamics. We have to see how this will play out. It is a real war albeit no ro

Tariffs alone are unlikely to have any effect on re-industrialization. In fact if not properly implemented it will have a negative effect. North Africa had high tariffs on cars for decades. That didn’t create a car industry. But when, a few

My understanding is that caching reduce computation but the whole input is still processed. I don’t think is fully disclosing how their cache works. LLMs degrade with long input regardless of caching.
