Unless you believe racially japanese people are significantly different to people from other asian countries. No. What really are the genetic basis to say Japan is a country that's markedly different from other asian populations? The p

It's really depressing that, given the good data that we have available and the different compared experienced from other countries and public policy research efforts from our academics that the political system is simply incapable of

Is it? Surely you're not just waving out the supply chain issues and reduced productive capacity of the whole world due to lockdowns. Was inflation in the USA higher than inflation in countries that didn't do direct deposits to pe

Right now our LLMs do, as you say, nothing but an input-output operation. There is no "internal" state. But if the researchers somehow managed to produce a program (which might be different machine learning models together) that w

You mean as opposed to what Bing does? ChatGPT is not a search engine, what it's doing is that it is completing the sentence you're giving it. It doesn't "search", it's simply activating neurons on its immense

The work being done with Llama and Alpaca and so on is what I've found to be most interesting in the past few weeks. The fact that we are capable of producing such high quality conversational models that we can actually get to freely e

There's also Guanaco as far as south american camelids go. Then you'd be truly out of names.

Llamas and Vicuñas are camelids.

Yes it probably is. However chatGPT's term of service are explicit about disallowing people to use code generation from the model to train other models. Now, how enforceable that might be... that probably remains a matter for the court

I'm not sure how they have implemented memory for this chatbot. OpenAI has probably a few tricks under their sleeve when it comes to how they handle the conversational aspect of the LLM. So, the interface. I imagine this being a demo,

"Please pause for at least 6 months " I find that to be pretty weird. If this is so dangerous surely 6 months wouldn't make a difference.

Seems pretty fair. We can't really ignore the technology, we need to be able to work with it as it's just become a new tool in people's arsenal.

I'm all for Open Source. And Linux is a great example. But look at what Open Source is turning into, it's being swallowed by corporations anyway. I guess I'm just not so positive, it's really hard to go against the grain

It certainly will make the hiring part of the work a little more difficult. Previously this step could be used as a filter, but now all the letters are going to be good which means the hiring part has just become a little more difficult. Is

I don't think so. I think in the future we will be living pretty similarly but instead of just doing the work manually we'll be using AI to be more efficient. Just like what the original post on reddit was referring to. He was not

I think discourse is hard when people don't really define what they mean by socialism or capitalism. It's fair to say a capitalist system is based on private ownership and free markets. With the first one really being the key that

Don't assume that because things have been improving fast that they will keep improving at the same rate. In an optimisation problem you might think you're doing a lot of progress but you might get to the end of the curve and real

Sure hope they don't. Although safety is important, I think the impact is largely overstated at least for these models. I think it might be more helpful to just get the tools out there right now, at a point where they're still man

Look at genetic algorithms to get an idea. But basically say a color is #RRGGBB you could think of these as 3 genes (RR, GG, BB) each of these letters would have their own value. At the moment of reproduction say every "cell" will

by jerojero 4y ago
That's cool. You could add colours and implement basic genetics to the reproduction stage and see what happens.

More accurately: 60% of hackernoon community respondents (n=300) have made use of AI in writing/copywriting work. Of course it doesn't have the same pizzazz but it's important context as community members of this particular w

Openness is probably the reason chatGPT was possible in the first place. Machine learning research has been able to progress so rapidly precisely because information has been all open and publicly available. I think trying to turn research

I thought I was clear in saying that life in itself might not be enough? Why would you say something "everything has life worthy of living" why? I actually disagree with this statement. Animals like pigs or dogs or humans are not

by jerojero 4y ago
It's pretty appalling to see such disregard to non-human life. As if the fact that animals have been domesticated somehow made them lesser beings. I mean, I guess you come at it from a sort of utilitarian maybe epicurean perspective? T

I find these kind of articles really insightful. It's very nice to see people reflect on failures as you're much more likely to make similar mistakes. One part of the piece is really important to me: I spent a few thousand pounds

I honestly don't think that it's the tech stack that will make or break most startups in any sector really. I mean, of course, unless you are trying to solve some very specific tech problem then you will need the right tool but if

This makes sense to me, working from home works much better for devs that are already used to the working culture and more importantly will not be afraid and will know who to ask and what to ask. For a developer that's just joining a t

That's an interesting point. Some people might really need to supplement their diets with certain animal products, though as far as I know, a vegetarian diet or a diet that includes very little meat consumption is more than enough for

Under which ethical framework is it possible to justify industrial slaughtering of animals? When you say "some people have different values" you probably mean "some people have simply not thought it through". I really do
