Is this the computational equivalent of digging a hole just to fill it in again? Why are we still spending hundreds of billions on GPU's?

Jensen needs to keep escalating the hype to keep the hoarding dynamics in play. Because that's what's selling GPU's. You can't look at voracious GPU demand as a real signal of AI app profitability or general demand. It&#

I think the best existing "product" analogy for LLM's is coffee. Coffee is a universally available, productivity enhancing commodity. There are some varieties certainly, but at the end of the day, a bean is a bean. It will ge

I'm remembering it not because it makes a good point, trying to reason about God is futile and pointless, but because it's funny both alone and because of its central role in the novel as saving humanity from a global holy war. Li

There are good reasons to think single payer systems are not the answer. The numerous documented inefficiencies and inconveniences they suffer from don't need repeating here. And many single payer systems around the world only appear t

It seems that as the tools available to developers have become more abstracted allowing them to do more with less, their ability to command higher salaries and prestige has only grown and grown. LLM's are just a continuation of this tr

I agree with you for the most part. The subtext to all of this is Maduro's close relationships with China and Russia of course.

Of course it can, and it is. Such logic is behind the argument in favor of arresting Putin. Many have argued that should happen if he were to step on their nations' soil. The reason no one thinks seriously about going into Russia and e

That's like arguing against the police arresting criminals because it will incentivize them to acquire weapons. The only consistent action for the US to take, given they - and much of the world - do not consider Maduro the legitimate P

If one believes we are moving towards major conflict with China this sort of operation is justifiable given Maduro's closeness to the CCP. It is very unlikely this will be met with anything like a coordinated condemnation from the Euro

It's not even about humans "needing" to be in the loop, but that humans "want" to be in the loop. AI is like a genius employee who has no ego and no desire to rise up the ranks, forever a peon while more willful col

I've recently been doing some work with Autodesk. It would be great for an LLM to be as comfortable with the "vocabulary" of these applications as they are with code. Maybe part of this involves creating a language for CAD de

It's funny to think that no matter how our technology develops, cats will be right there along for the ride, completely ignorant of it all. It's humorously comforting to think of an interstellar civilization powered by fusion and
