Let's say you collect stamps. I think it's a stupid and morally irresponsible way of using your free time (you should be socializing or doing sports or learning something new). Just being honest with my opinion. This is all ok. Th

So Chinese LLMs are bad actors, but USA LLMs are the good guys? I don't see it that way, but I'm sure from an American perspective that how it seems.

This sounds like a very negative comment and with many generalizations. Please consider thinking about what your comments bring to the discussion

>Since this theorem is true for the standard model of the natural numbers but not provable I've always found the provable vs true comparison confusing. How can we say the statement is true under the standard model if we cannot prove

The point is not whether it can be modeled (it can), but whether you can get a closed form solution for it (you can't...or we don't know how for now)

I see a lot of people asking "what year it is" or some other question that tests knowledge lf current events. To me it sounds like a misunderstanding of what an LLM + retrieval augmentation does. If the LLM is only fed the HR docu

Not in India, but I've seen parents here sit down at a restaurant table and shove a cell phone in front of a toddler the second they sit down. They don't allow the kid to even get bored, try to do other stuff or interact with the

Or maybe there's no secret sauce for intelligence and if the system / organism can display all that functionality then should just say it's intelligent. I don't have a strong opinion either way, but I'm not convince

Faang salary only exists on the US. Even the richest countries in Europe don't have those salaries for programmers (maybe if you work on finance or some niche subject).

In this part of the world, we're more worried about what the US government can do to us than what the Chinese can do. In other words, for many people in the world that wouldn't be an issue, it's already in the hands of a coun

Not an argentinean, but I don't think that's the right way to look at it. You can exchange dollars in any country and in many you can directly pay in stores if the storekeeper is flexible. You wouldn't call that a parallel do

The language is not dumb. The writing system that people chose is...not that great (and you can call it dumb if you like). There was a choice between respecting phonetics or maximizing some other objective (respecting etymology or being con

The busting and splitting up is a hard tool, but anti-trust has many other tools at their disposal, including maintaining status quo (i.e. refusing the merge of two companies). Disclaimer: I don't work in the US, so I'm not sure i

Sounds like a two-sided market, where a company gets their value from being able to connect one side (the artists) with the other one (the venues). What I find strange is that people aren't usually reluctant to sign exclusivity agreeme

Also 2 == 2. You're not making an argument, you're just saying that LLMs aren't human.

This comment isn't saying anything. It says "LLMs statistically choose the next token" and, because of that, it can't be anything else. We know how the LLMs were trained, so re-stating it doesn't help in anything. T

I grew up used to reading subtitles. Listening to the original voices and languages is super interesting to me. Besides some very specific cases (I can't look at the screen all the time) I don't have any use for dubbing.

You're correct. Parent comment says something true (some / many characters don't have a representation in most fonts), but the inference it makes is wrong (this is a bottleneck for communication)

Does this come from actual experience trying to communicate in chinese or japanese? At least for chinese (but I'm pretty sure it applies to japanese too), what you're saying doesn't ring as relevant (i.e. it is true that some

Are you american by any chance? Over here people speak multiple languages. I doubt we'll run out of people that speak multiple languages just because there's a language model that can do great translations.

The really good movies are immune to spoilers and you can watch them many times. But there are also plenty of ok movies that are fun, but mot rewatchable. I usually enjoy a movie more if I watch it without knowing much and getting surprised

It's not what you were asking for (class that can't be subclassed), but `typing` has an `assert_never` to check exhaustiveness: https://typing.readthedocs.io/en/latest/source/unreachable.h...
