   I agree too. My impression is that almost all RAG tutorials _only_ talk about vector DBs, when these are not strictly required for Retrieval Augmented Generation. I'm guessing vector DBs are useful when you have massive amounts of docu

   Some questions: Could OpenAI exist without Microsoft? Which other tech company has meaningful ownership / economic interest of OpenAI? Is OpenAI collaborating with any of Microsoft's competitors (e.g. Google, Apple, Facebook etc.)

   Hi Greg, Congratulations, great demo! The $0.47 bill seems reasonable for an experiment, but imagine someone doing a task of this complexity as a daily job - let's say 100x times, or a little more than 4 hours - the bill would be $47&#

   Muddled? Vik means Bay in norwegian today also (not just in Old Icelandic), -ing is used similarly as in english, so bay-ers or bay dwellers is a straightforward translation. The county Viken, a big part of the Oslofjord bay area is named o

    Thanks for the inspiring video! Can I have some questions / play devil's advocate a bit? I hope you don't mind if I start with constructive criticism: It seems you talk about capabilities of the LLM based _applications_ (what

    Better privacy might be running Llama2 locally, offline. If somebody hasn't tried running LLMs yet, here are some lines that do the job in Google Colab or locally. The !s are for Colab, remove them for local terminal. The script downlo

    Great site, thanks! Improvement idea: please use SVGs instead (or in addition to) GIFs. It should be relatively easy, much better quality, probably smaller image file sizes.

    " Negative indexing (.at(-1)): When indexing an array or a string, at can be used to index from the end. It’s equivalent to arr[arr.length - 1) " sic arr[arr.length-1) This is wrong. Array.at can get, but not set the value. So th

    Very cool. Just for info: these use the "Letter paper", not A4, as I remember. But most designs should work anyway. "The most used of this series is the size A4, which is 210 mm × 297 mm (8.27 in × 11.7 in) and thus almost ex

    I agree that in science, as we extend our perception with instruments, it's difficult draw the line between an image and an illustration or diagram. I'm maybe grumpy because this relatively featureless image of relatively massaged

    Thanks for your reply! I also think it's scientifically interesting and appreciate the work. But it should be called a model or illustration, because a human could never see this with bare eyes.

    I share your skepticism. To others: Before voting me down, please consider these arguments. As I understand, this image is not from visible light, not a photo, more like plotting radio measurements. "black holes" are the brightest

    I have very little understanding of physics and math and might be wrong. But if we accept that the Planck length is the smallest possible length and the Planck time is the smallest possible time, then it seems logical that the universe is a
