That would be interesting. If they knew about it shouldn't they published something? Everyone would see the importance being the first with a paper about an AI that can do things it wasn't trained to do? Was it just corporate secr

Perhaps. But previous to ChatGPT, I doubt anyone fully know how capable an LLM can be. There is a plethora of papers published after ChatGPT went public detailing all the cool and unexpected abilities from an LLM, things that surprised even

GPT is a breakthrough in many more ways than just being an advance LLM. GPT3 was released a year or so ago and technically, it was outclassed by PaLM from Google quite a bit in terms of parameter count and Chinchilla in terms of training. W

As a society, we should look out for the vulnerable part of our population. The example with high fashion brands is on point though, but I also absolutely detest paying extra to have a logo on my stuff so it doesn't really resonate wit

Hmm, over 95 years old and still read HN? I would admire the mental ability of such a person. I think by the time I am 95, I will probably be dead or have my mind so degraded I can barely read. Comprehending techs like AIs would be so beyon

The problem is a bit deeper than just addiction. It is manipulation and social engineering of a young and exploitable group. This is the new kind of scam and many people are ill-equipped to deal with them, just like how some people were wea

From what I have seen, you can't really articulate why you disagreed. Your arguments appears to be another form of "humans have it, this AI doesn't" but fail to specifically define what is this "it". The AI eff

This has been talked over and over already. The conclusion is that eventually, you don't know what are the actual differences between "reasoning" and "next token prediction" in a real human. On one hand, it makes th

If I understood you correctly, you are asserting that the LLMs entirely lack the "self-awareness" or "critical thinking" part while human simply doesn't use it enough but we are all born with it and always have that

Well, most people can't properly understand the scientific notation, as in getting a proper scale of how big one order of magnitude is supposed to be. They may see ^35 and say "oh, so it is like less than 100 of something, meh&quo

Some of these are good arguments and can turn out to be true. But they are equally likely to be false. 1/ We humans are still generating data. To live is to generate data and while it is dystopian to think about how these data can be h

OpenAI was backed by probably the biggest tech company around, Microsoft. Without the computing afforded by Azure, they would have problems training and running the LLM.

Personally, layoff carries the connotation that it is not the employee's fault while "fired" means the employee's performance was the cause. Depend on the context, it may make a difference.

I believe if you check the activity history, you will see a massive spike of request coming from China around the time the service went down. Doubt we will have anything official though. Cyberwars are often fought in the shadow.

There are built in guardrails. Those are so strong it effectively lobotomized the LLM and force to abort its own internal process in favor of just saying: "I am sorry Dave, I am afraid I can't do that". Try to make ChatGPT or

That is PaLM-E model. Or "embodied" LLM. They literally did exactly what you said. An LLM getting input from a camera and output command to a robotic hand. Then you can tell the bot to pick up a knife and "deposit" it so

First you have to make it easier to conduct experiment on before you can get more understanding. If 1GPa is all that is needed, then yes this is a big breakthrough that can lead to wider research and more understanding.
