I think Auctions exist explicitly to potentially buy or sell an Item with a delta on it's Market Value? I.e. Buyers want the chance to buy below and sellers to sell above. Neither really wants to engage in the transaction at all in the

At the same time compute required is increasing like 10x each generation, its scaling faster than Moore's law.

Bro given that the cost of frontier models is already at or past $100M I think that boat has already sailed. Unless you have a completely cracked team that can raise like $1B upfront you have no chance at competing.

Auctions by default almost always undercut the actual market value so no not really?

If it costs 200$ to add the device and modify the saw to accept it and the original saw cost 300$ you've got a pretty massive increase. Also from some deep dive I saw apparently SawStop has basically cornered the entire premium market

You hit a knot in your 2x4 while on a table saw and you might be surprised when you see your fingers laying on the ground and you thought you were being safe too.

It's not expensive to replace, the brake is like 100$ and it sure beats a 10,000$ hospital bill and a couple digit amputations.

Cynical take is that the SawStop feature adds enough cost to budget table saws that they will no longer be economically viable and you can only purchase mid-high end tables saws going forward.

Great response! I wonder if part of my disagreement is in thinking of GPT4 as a System rather than just as an LLM. If the system has the ability to solve problems in code it feels like intentionally handicapping it by forcing it to solve pr

Why would they, imo signs point to a nation state or at minimum a very sophisticated APT so it seems incredibly unlikely they're going to make a mistake like that.

But this is just current state. Token costs continue to go down and contexts will continue to get larger.

If you're running a 1M context LLM I assume you are well past memory constraints since the weights alone are 10s of GBs.

Well I guess the assumption is that you can just fit everything into the context and there'd be nothing to retrieve anymore.

But it wasn't caught because it was open source? It was caught basically by chance by an engineer using the distro who admits they only caught it because of a series of coincidences.

This represents a massive failure of the Open Source model and it's worth thinking carefully about as more and more people advocate for fully open source AI models. People could spend a lot of time on token safety features only to have

So you think whatever process produces a GPT4 update is completely equivalent to pretraining and RLHF'ing a brand new model with new architecture, more data, etc??

Go ahead, no one is saying to stay with GPT4. But its disingenuous to compare a gpt-4-march-update to a completely new pretrained model like Claude 3 Opus.

I don't support ubiquitous spying at all but are you hanging out with known ISIS members or members of White Nationalist Militias regularly? Because I'm pretty sure that's where the line begins.
