Your sentiment is exactly what I intended, albeit I was terse and a little facetious. ChatGPT is like introducing a bunch of new skilled labor, it’s just for the first time this skilled labor isn’t human. The fact that this skilled labor le

I disagree. People learning how to draw does degrade the future value of copyrighted work. Imagine the future where nobody was allowed to learn to draw, existing copyright value would skyrocket!

Celsius is not a bank, the customers were junior creditors. Junior creditors get paid after senior creditors. People should not deposit their money in not banks if they want guarantees on their deposits.

Not sure why you are downvoted, this is exactly my concerns with llama. You can’t run llama with the intent of distilling your own commercial model.

A lot of regional banks were capitalized by deposits, once SVB collapsed the fed opened additional opportunities for regional banks to be capitalized by the fed. In general, the fed acts as a lender of last resort and charges excess interes

I talked to Munjal and team when they were ideating on Hippocratic, even he acknowledges that healthiq was a shit show. AFAIK it was 30 people running a 1k person call center and failing. This motivated Hippocratic as they think they can do

It costs like $50M to build a next gen model, so if what they want to pitch is training next gen models it makes sense they get $100M to try. Similar to Hippocratic AI $50M seed raise. If anything this founder team seems more legit.

You don’t really need to fit fully in memory. Memory requirement to train is ~6DP * precision Where D is number of tokens*mini batch size and P is number of parameters. So if you want to fit fully into memory with a mini batch of 1, context

Getting highly skilled crème of the crop people into the US increases the pie for everyone. We should allow more such people in.

Because these people built a life in the US and benefitted the US tremendously. The solution isn’t to kick them out, it’s to give them permanent residence so they don’t constantly live with the sword hanging over them.

At the end of the day, earth will not become entirely uninhabitable. The rich portions of humanity will have to migrate and pay expensive mitigation, the poor portions will suffer and many will die. It’s terrible that we aren’t addressing i

I think it’s kind of obvious. We can’t adapt to consuming less because there is no immediate cost. We can adapt to droughts because it would force migration of people away from areas without water because those that won’t will either not ha

I think it’s less easy to ignore 1 mil American deaths if it’s from a sudden explosion. Also, covid did have huge economic and cultural ramifications.

People keep talking of nuclear winter or complete destruction being the big unacceptable cost, but really even loss of 100k americans is an unacceptable loss. This doesn't mean we shouldn't help Ukranians, but an example of a deva

If it kills just 100k americans that's a cost too high to pay.

If you try anything violent they will kill you and claim self defence. Maybe they win the court case maybe they won’t but you will be dead.

That’s not really how it works. It’s hard to be fine-grained when firing 12k people. It’s operational much easier to do the layoff and then fix the gaps.

Yes, one of the reasons I like using mypy for python and typescript for frontend is that it forces me to recognise opportunities for abstractions. If some input/return type is getting really complicated or reappears in many places in t

As someone writing my first meaningful react app, code quality from gpt4 is monstrously better than 3.5. With gpt 4 i can often paste entire components and get meaningful corrections/bug fixes/non-trivial refactors. 3.5 just does
