It's the opposite. If you lose back wheel traction in an FWD car, you "just" point your wheels in the right direction and accelerate - the front wheels will have both steering and power, so they will "drag" the car

It depends on a machine and a store. At least in Poland, I’ve seen a bunch of terrible ones, but most of them are pretty decent. In my local Leroy Merlin , there are 10 machines, all of them busy during rush hours, and just one person staff

Oh damn, I missed the hackathon, and I'm visiting the bay area for a short period of time only, and I ended up hacking by myself over the weekend :,) Where was that hackathon announced - I don't see it on the website? I would like

You can generate textual examples that teach logic, multi-dimensional understanding and so on. Similar to the ones that are in math books, but in a massive scale.

For extra extra fun: in Poland (I guess in the rest of EU as well?), you're allowed to use any means necessary to make a backup copy of software for your own use - even if it means cracking it, or cracking the hardware that it runs of.

Fun fact - in central/eastern Europe algebra starts in 6th grade (kids aged 11-12yo), and we don't have much problem with that.

This issue seems overblown. Sure, if you apply pure GPT-4 (or whatever) to a summarisation task, it will cause the problems mentioned. But you can have another AI that previews content first, looking for prompt injections - and only when th

You're doing a terrific job, seriously! <3 We were doing a workshop about LLMs for 110 people a week ago, and we spent 10 minutes explaining how you do stuff - as an example on how it should be done well.

Did you ask for grilling spots, or did you paste the grilling spots from some database and ask it to summarize/reformat? Parent commenter was talking about the latter. If you did the former, it will hallucinate like crazy, of course.

How do Embeddings work for you? I'm yet to play with them, but I imagine: - with large corpus of text, they can be expensive to compute - they may be limited in some cases - when you want to extract a deeper meaning from text - that is

Our brains are come pre-trained for speech from a few million years of evolution. Artifitial NN are trained from scratch. A chimpanzee can listen to humans as much as it wants, and it will still not pick up much of the language.

GPU shortage ended not because of a crash in crypto, but because Ethereum switched to PoS and ditched GPUs. Other cryptos offer just a fraction of payouts from mining, so it's not profitable to mine them on GPUs unless you have free el

It’s not about overpromise/underdeliver, byt about an outright fraud - lying to the investors. Overpromising is something that investors expect, if not even require - startups are all about doing long shot bets, with 5% chance of doing
