Ehhh, that's a poor take. The indirect benefits of fundamental research like particle physics are massive. We all know about how the web — which turned out to have a few commercial applications — was invented by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN

Great, then maybe we can all finally go outside and smell the damn roses.

Can you offer insight into what a better approach might have been?

Claude has a specialized calculation feature that doesn't use model inference. Just FYI.

They’re just useful tools that are likely to become even more so.

Large LLMs like gpt-3 and gpt-4 need very serious hardware. They have hundreds of billions of parameters (or more) which need to be loaded in memory all at once.

Have you looked at what people use browsers for in the past few decades? It ain’t just documents (or other static content).

When did they change that? I believe viewing share links didn’t require an account originally.

I've had a few really strange ones like this afternoon... Something is definitely off with chatgpt. For example: https://chat.openai.com/share/7055d317-8b78-44e3-b51a-b50cd8... Edit: Apparently you have to log in

My main point is that the distance between stars is not physically impossible to overcome, as the original comment suggested.

LLM scaling laws are pretty well established at this point. They probably won’t hold forever but we aren’t at the breaking point yet. Some more pressing questions are: * What new capabilities emerge as the models get better and better at pr

People want to solve their problems in the simplest way possible. They will only use composition if there isn’t a tool that solves the problem by itself.

Using the moon for the farthest distance humans have traveled… Voyager has traveled 60,000 times further (14 billion miles). 1 cm x 60,000 = 600 meters Which is less than 0.5% of the distance to Alpha Centauri (“200 km” in the analogy, 25 t
