I've been getting most of my work from Upwork in the period since generative AI started to take off. I can clarify something about the number of ML jobs. 90% of my clients are convinced or nearly convinced that they cannot fulfill thei

He did not actually say his criticism only applies to statically typed languages. He almost implied that he would consider dynamically typed languages invalid by default without the types. It does matter that there is a lot of successful so

Eventually people will realize that not all chatbots are the same. Just like different departments or people or products may be different even if they are at some level providing the same type of service. You can very easily copy paste some

The funny thing is that there was a time (at least with Microsoft) where you were supposedly doing it totally wrong if you didn't use stored procedures enough. And I swear there was a time when every web developer knew that if you wan

Just because an idea wasn't implemented or didn't become popular doesn't mean it's not a good idea. I have always strongly felt that expansion cards in desktop computers should work more like this rather than requiring t

does anyone know how to run aider with claude 3 opus? aider --model anthropic/claude-3-opus ValueError: No known tokenizer for model: anthropic/claude-3-opus

I will have to update aider and get Claude set up with it. Have been having too many problems with the diffs from gpt-4-turbo in aider. Actually made my own cli tool for Opus but if aider supports Opus then will switch because my program do

This is 10 times faster than almost all of the fast image generation models.

Not sure if you noticed but the article said that time of adult children living with their parents in America is already here. What's required is to A) avoid WWIII and B) come up with a new structure for society as human labor is repla

Awesome. Is it possible to put this into Claude 3 Opus and create an open source import and rendering system? Or is that already a thing.

It's not too far behind. But Groq is currently not billing and I think it's because they haven't finished programming their billing system. So with such a fast service being free, there is a lot of queueing and presently is u

It's totally infeasible for a small startup without significant funding to build a competitive LLM from scratch. What is possible is fine tuning an existing LLM. I suspect that this will become popular. One can imagine open source plat

The comment I replied to implied that they have their own large index equivalent to Google's and so don't need to use Google. It's not true, and I bet you would find that a very significant portion of the search results come

This could be considered a new era for the internet. Or whenever it starts being used to serve the majority of search results. People who are skeptical of AI won't like it of course. But it will be a literal and practical change to the

This is really interesting but goes completely counter to how I understand emotions. I see emotions as often being driven by very high level but subconscious cognition. It's like an abstraction that regulates your attitude towards a si

Decentralized systems, peer to peer, Blockchain, smart contracts, are all important technologies with real use cases. It is not accurate to refer to any of them as simply "crypto" especially in this context.

The interesting thing to me is that there is ageism in the title of the article and no one seems to notice. That makes me think that ageism is a deep seeded and very prevalent problem. The phrase "had to learn or die" has an impli

They have something called MemoryDB. I wonder if that is basically an integration of Redis Cluster into AWS.

I hope someone will do a similar experiment with visualization (imagination) only. Some people are better at this than others so maybe focus on those people who easily create vivid images in their mind's eye. Or maybe text.

Refactoring is not a beginner skill. Ask Claude 3 or ChatGPT to give you a few examples with like 5-15 lines of code. But don't give them that until they have some experience. Code isn't easy to understand for beginners. They need

I suggest just using Stability's API. You aren't allowed to use it locally for commercial use anyway. You could set something up on RunPod or AWS, but I doubt it's worth the effort.

One perspective on this is to compare how much our devices have changed over a given time period versus other aspects of our society and infrastructure. A lot of our assumptions outside of technology seem somewhat frozen in time.
