Was going to suggest looking into an LLC. I ran a security consulting company for about ten years and the only customers that asked for background checks were banks and some federal agencies.

This is something that has always bothered me about RAG. It seems that it’s fine for first order relevance, like a search engine, but for knowledge there needs to be some kind of rumination stage where it revisits the entire corpus to find

Absolutely. Give it a try. I pasted these comments into ChatGPT and asked it to score them according to slashdot’s system (which i didn’t actually define) and got this reply: In Slashdot's scoring system, comments are scored from -1 t

I'm sure it's a challenge at some level but I like seeing the JWST 'fingerprint' on images.

It's long gone, nothing special, just uploaded a screenshot of the raci as it was being edited in a spreadsheet. Then just explained the context and the teams listed.

I’ve been wondering lately about the role of language in the mind and if we might in the future develop a successor that optimizes for how our brains work.

Odd side note. I asked chat gpt for feedback on the screenshot of a RACI and added some color on the parties involved and the scope of work. It provided some really good analysis and recommendations.

In 1992 I replied to an email from Steve Jobs that was shipped in the default email client of the NeXT workstation I was using. I checked the 'read receipt' box in the client. He replied, ignoring my question and berating me for

This is dependent on the cell you're in. I've been on Starlink since Feb 2021 and dipping below 100 down is very rare. It' averages about 140 down and 20 up with about 30ms latency.

This is awesome! I got my glasses a couple weeks ago. I’m in Vegas and actually wore them for the first time yesterday. They’re actually really nice and i was thinking how cool it world be to hook it into gpt4v.

Somehow as easy as it is conceptually, I still find cutting 3 stringers that line up well to be surprisingly difficult. In part because I’ve only has to do it a handful of times in my life.

Lina Khan is the chair of the FTC and was just on Hard Fork podcast. Pretty interesting. I heard the episode this past weekend and today it occurred to me that the sheer incompetence demonstrated by OpenAI is actually something they would l

There’s an entire portion of this that’s missing in the audio tracks from any launch I’ve watched on tv, YouTube, etc. The deep bass notes go soo low and have this wild elastic ringing tonal quality to them. Like someone is playing a huge

You’re thinking of degrees. Half an arcminute is 1/120th of a degree and is roughly the diameter of Jupiter in the night sky. There are about half a billion patches of night sky that are half an arcminute on each side. It’s also about

Ah! Do you think this is like an adjunct or fine-tuning kind of thing or do they retrain GPT 4+ images? That seems like a ginormous task.

I’m super curious about the data structure that’s being extracted from the image and fed to GPT. I asked it to estimate the size of a figurine based on a ruler in the image, and it nailed it. https://imgur.com/a/gsiID4v

Of course, but it would be fun to design and build. And since it will obviously never happen it seems pretty harmless to think about?

Sometimes when I'm stuck in construction traffic I wish someone would invent the Highway Widening Machine. A machine that in one fell swoop can grind, grade, prep, pour and paint a new lane into a road.
