Interfacing with APIs does not solve any fundamental issues about what LLMs "understand" or not though. At most they will be more accurate in arithmetic tasks, but that's it.

This is not completely true, though. We expected GPT and LLMs in general to be bad in tasks that are not language-focused, exactly because they are large LANGUAGE models. Mathematics is one of them. Though it is also true that one may not h

I am wondering if there is a selection bias in this that has to do with either the kids that get homeschooled or the parents who take that decision. Like if a parent homeschools their kids because they are afraid of certain external social

Honestly, all this sounds such an american, middle class thing: the public X is shit, and everything is up to the individual. I am not saying public education is great where I grew up, and I can definitely imagine doing what I wanted being

It is the word "vaccine" that somehow triggers scary narratives in these crowds; recently, in denmark a very common antibiotic was found that it contained a bunch of highly antibiotic resistant bacteria, causing disease to a few p

It depends on the vaccine. Some vaccines use a "weakened" form of the pathogen to trigger immunity response without causing actual disease, but sometimes, especially in cases of weaker immune systems, this can cause actual disease

So Elon wanted to build an open source non-profit AI but had to resign from openAI, which he had cofounded with that intention, because he wanted to create a closed-source and for-profit AI for Tesla and that brought a conflict of interest.

The way the LEDs are blinking together one can definitely see the face in the periods they are all turned off. The only advantage I see is that this is not humanly possible to do in real time, but not sure how big an advantage this is.

It must really be a US thing. I am really perplexed that people even consider seriously that the ones who named the trails are responsible and not this person. And they were 50 miles apart ffs. It is not that they were crossing each other o

It works quite well actually as long as one spends the necessary effort beforehand to prepare with downloading offline maps, checking the paths around to have an overall idea of the place etc. There is nothing that complicated nowadays actu

It is a trade-off and a sweet spot has a lot to do with the specific context and background. Run speed matters a lot when the difference is between having to run your code on a dataset for half an hour vs through the whole night. Once you h

Honestly, unless there is any specific feature added that you find important (the wifi update or whatnot), a refurbushed/discounted m1 pro seems like a no-brainer choice under a more restricted budget.
