Very nice visualizations, thanks for that! One thing I still struggle with in my head is how these vision embeddings can then be used to give LLMs eyes. Because you somehow need a giant training set which describes images in natural languag

If you ask him 100 times in a row I would bet that by the second, maybe third, time he will not answer with his song but with: what the fuck is wrong with you? Nicely circling back to LLMs not being able to learn and form memories.

The author mentions that in the blog. The majority is the delay of the updated file actually being written to disk by the device. The author did not find a solution to trigger file write earlier/more frequently.

Good to know, thanks! This article was such a breath of fresh air compared to the usual "LLM-assisted" writing you get. Just sentences like this: > This isn’t just a problem for far-off countries of which we know little, like t

I'm not suprised that in the swiss economy no one bats an eye at 1000 CHF bank notes. After all the swiss are historically known for being the classy alternative to launder and store your ill gotten gains from, for example, your stint

Yea that part also stood out to me. Everything else is also chock-full of plausible sounding but baseless claims and generalizations devoid of any nuance. > For the people inside the Foundation: this is not a moment to manage. It is a mo

I guess it's about habit. In the end you are communicating. If I get into the habit of being rude while communicating with a machine, I would be afraid of this habit spilling over to my communication with other humans.

I think a more higher level "internal representation" was meant. The internal representation of knowledge. Sure we know that a model stores weights. We also know that a neuron transmits electric pulses. That doesn't mean that

> But even if RCP 8.5 did happen, it was not a humanity ending scenario. Can you do it like the IPCC report and assign a confidence to that claim? Mine would be: RCP 8.5 ending humanity (very low likelihood, low confidence), based on abs

I would wager that investment in battery tech, solar, wind and electric vehicles was largely driven by the trust of companies in institutions that carbon pricing will continue in the future. I'm not a macro economist, I also haven&#x27

There's a huge number of people in developing countries (think Indonesia, Brazil, Nigeria, Kenya, Mexico) where the country just lagged on internet build out. Now in these countries the price of a subscription will be a lot lower, than

I mean, the SpaceX bet is that what you mention for terrestrial fiber > or is cheaper to replace than it was to buy will also hold true for cost of mass to orbit. There's a lot riding on making that prediction come true for SpaceX,

As far as I know, Tiktok pays significantly less than Youtube. But yes, TikTok is a thing, as well as Twitch. Still, it's all very centralized platforms, which historically isn't the case for all the monetized free content you usu

And then you will dictate your predictions on the future of the internet which your agent will flesh out into a comment? But I would guess that the agents would already know their handlers well enough to answer for them. Which will then get

On the contrary you can argue that gutting should lead to lower number of mistakes/incompetence. There can't be any mistakes if no work is being done.

And here I was, wondering why accessibility features are on top of HN. Of course it's AI.

Yes, but this just shows how google is not repeating mistakes of the Kodaks and Blockbusters of the world. They keep innovating even if it means cannabilizing their main revenue stream. Which increases the chances that you will not still be

I mean this is already (kind of) the case for video. There's no real mainstream way outside of youtube to make meaningful money with free video content. But yes, interesting thought which does kind of make sense. The marketplace-ificat

This is how it works. Universities are doing research, they aren't doing products. If a commercially viable product comes out of their research it is far outside the scope of universities. Also keep in mind that most sciences usually d
