There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and fake quotes.

Because currently models output a stream of tokens directly which are the performance and billing unit. Better models can do a better job at producing reasonable output but there is a limit to what can be done "on the fly". Some m

Ironically the word "overloaded" is overloaded too.

How much of this modularity is it worth to insert in the architecture itself and how much should we let emerge from the training process itself?

I agree. I'm often confused about the incoherent picture that paints Israel as having blatant disregard for civilian casualties while at the same time devises complicated and risky strategies to perform targeted strikes.

I think you nailed the analogy with mines and the distinction between legal and moral. Putting morality aside and focusing only on language and semantica: I agree that this action may be better described as military action with an associate

I think it is useful to consider this a form of lossless compression not only because it technically is a form of lossless compression but also because a simple compression algorithm like this is a good introduction to the various tradeoffs

it may work for a short time, but after a while natural language will evolve due to natural exposure of those new words or word patterns and even human will write in ways that, while being different from the LLMs, will also be different fro

You're a covered expatriate also if: " You fail to certify on Form 8854 that you have complied with all federal tax obligations for the 5 tax years preceding the date of your expatriation. " I agree you should pay up your tax

If you're no longer citizen you won't be accountable for any tax accrued after you're no longer a citizen. But you're still accountable for debt, so all they need is to frame this as taxes on earnings and property that y

Also because one would have to weigh the alternative. Imagine Israel declared an old fashioned war against Lebanon as response to the missile strikes originated from its territory. I think the number of civilian casualties of a conventional

I'm confused. Hawking temperature is inversely proportional to the mass. I assume most black holes except the very small ones would thus have a hawking temperature lower than the CMB. Does that mean that effectively no black holes will

In quantum field theory electrons are excitations in the electron field. If they also were tiny black holes, what would it mean to be an excitation in the electron field which when the wave function collapses it would behave like a black ho

Apple is making if harder and harder to install kernel extensions and so requiring the macfuse dependency is becoming a big burden on your tool and thus that raises the barrier to entry for user space filesystems on mac

You're right it's ambiguous. It's a playful reference to a piece of literature. It's also quite an old terminology which is not going to change. If we could come up with a new terminology from the start we could find bet

Natural languages... The word "End" can also mean any "extremity" and not just the opposite of "beginning". Otherwise phrases "on both ends of the spectrum" wouldn't make sense. Thus, a positiona

You can still use 32-bit wide addresses in 64-bit mode and sign-extend them into 64-bit registers. If you have a statically compiled binary all you need is compiler support for 32-bit address mode in the otherwise 64-bit ready instruction s

One of the key aspects of ARC is that its testing dataset is secret. The usefulness of the ARC challenge is to figure out how much of the "intelligence" that current models trained on the entire internet is an emergent property an

"for any sufficiently X the Y" just means that if you don't observe Y right now, just increase the magnitude of X and you'll inevitably reach the conditions for Y to happen. Famous use of that pattern is Arthur's Cl

Lol-ed myself but OTOH if you want a model to learn how people actually speak you cannot expect to get that by reading curated scientific documents.

To add to other comments here: think about what happens when a heavy object (e.g. a planet or a moon) moves, how quickly does the change to the gravitational field propagate to affect the distant surroundings? Answer; at the speed of light.

The propagation of the change in the magnetic field travels at the speed of light. The act of moving a magnet and thus changing the magnetic field at one point also induces a change in the electric field and vice versa, that's why you&

Wouldn't that be an incentive towards other career paths (such as mowing lawns)? EDIT: brace for the lawn mowing cartels led by ex human trafficking gangs. On a more serious note, there is so much criminality involved in that field pre
