This /looks/ at least more official. Most unofficial Google projects have a disclaimer in the repo.

I think what I'm saying is that I don't understand why the embedding exists. I assume it's some kind of training and inference cost issue? But why can't the Gemma architecture linked above just learn to represent pixels

I'm not an ML expert, but I was thinking of a sort of "guided" embedding. E.g., give the image model some prompt for what it's trying to do? I don't understand why multimodal models generate an embedding that doesn&

I feel like multimodal models that can read images should work differently than they do. My understanding is that multimodal models basically first generate an image embedding and then the model is trained to interpret that embedding, but i

Jokes aside, I think the idea is that the law is simple to code, the proof that it holds is where the agent is responsible. This probably becomes less true though as you try to express more complicated laws.

A generation is a time that people were born between and useful because it embodies much of the cultural context that people share.

Funny enough I was thinking about something very similar to this based on the Jev model posted yesterday.

Just curious, why? Is this true even if you did something like a per-CPU histogram that uses atomic ops to increment?

Ah this is interesting. Essentially the idea is that the compute can try and move into positions that it can evaluate but humans might have trouble evaluating because of the board state's complexity?

That was a lot of snark :-) I know what you're saying. It's not clear to what degree the film industry would be viable in its current form though without IP rights. If everyone can watch the latest marvel film at home for free, ar

I spent years learning logic and doing puzzles. I don't think a baby or even average kid could solve these.

I think they meant more like "people band together to pay Christophe Nolan to create some new film" ala crowdfunding. Is that a sustainable model for the world economy? Unclear.

Why can't effort just be at the end of the prompt? My understanding is that that is how modes and other "dynamic updates" like the time are handled.

Calling China a country that "bred like rabbits" over the past few decades is first of all offensive and second of all stupid for a country that has one of the biggest problems with their coming population pyramid and limited coup

China is at a higher installed capacity by 6x from overall and 30% by per capita capacity. They're growing installed capacity from your source at 45% y/y as compared to 20% in the US. Sure, there might be more transmission constra

The quote you pulled for China is conveniently 3 years old and missing the global context that it was in response to supply issues with other fossil fuels, not a reflection in meeting demand. These charts address your points: https:/&

Hmmm... Why wouldn't this be handled like other end of prompt things like the current mode?

Ah, so it's more that "LLMs just bypass Rust's safety" rather than "LLMs write perfect C"? That's a more fair argument.

Just curious, are there lifeforms today that rely on these metals to live in anaerobic environments? Maybe the hydrothermal vents that are talked about? Do you think complex life could develop (perhaps by moving backwards) in a way that the

This is neat. I'm only halfway through but some really cool discussion about the internals of the chips and what they offer.

I feel like the future is people building applications with tightly integrated LLMs that work hand in hand with the application's own lifecycle and code. I also didn't realize that people were using agentic harnesses for search, i

Perhaps an un-fun fun fact if you're living near one of these, but Boom aerospace has pivoted to start selling turbines for data centers in addition to its normal business.
