This might makes sense if you believe US is an evil empire, DoD is doing bad things, and AI will help DoD do even worse things. But it's not so black and white, is it?

With self-driving cars some human will be held responsible in case of the accident, I hope. Why would it be different here? It seems like a responsibility problem, not a technology one.

If there's not enough money from taxes, they will borrow/print more to cover total deficit (not specific to DoD). Otherwise, tax money will go directly to DoD.

Why do you think humans would make better life or death decisions? Have we never had innocent civilians killed overseas by US military as a result of human error?

If you live in US, taxes you pay directly fund DoD. So if you sponsor their activities, why can't Anthropic do business with them? Which other company would you rather get their (your) money?

I’m thinking about limiting the extent I use it for coding. Just to stay sharp. Need to exercise my brain more.

Thank you! I guess if there's enough spelling related text in the dataset, a model is forced to learn some info about token composition in order to predict such texts. I wonder if it would help to explicitly insert this info into an em

Great, then we established that I (generally intelligent human), and LLMs, both can't perform the task in question without specific training. We still don't know if given that specific training we (a specific human or a specific L

I got 3 tokens: st, raw, and berry. My point still stands: processing "berry" as a single token does not allow the model to learn its spelling directly, the way human readers do. It still has to rely on an explicit mapping of the

o3 is definitely usable, as I said, it solved about half of the coding tasks I tried. My problem with your original comment was "bottlenecks in genAI is not the knowledge or accuracy". Knowledge and accuracy are absolutely the mai

Each character made the cut, but the word "strawberry" is a single token, and that single token is what the model gets as input. When humans read some text, they can see each individual character in the word "strawberry"

These models are not trained on character level input. Why would anyone expect them to perform well on character level puzzles?

Codex paper confirms that GPT-3 could not do any coding tasks. It's right there in the abstract: https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.03374

Because gpt-3 was not trained to do coding tasks. It could do a simple autocomplete. Perhaps you are confusing it with gpt-3.5?

We have reached a point where the bottlenecks in genAI is not the knowledge or accuracy, it is the context window and speed. You’re joking, right? I’m using o3 and it couldn’t do half of the coding tasks I tried.

So then there's no need for AI workers. You got this backwards - there won’t be need for humans outside of the elite class. 0.1% or 0.01% of mankind will control all the resources. They will also control robots with guns. Less than 1
