This is why I’m convinced vim is great for the ADHD brain. You don’t need to remember where something is or what it looks like, you just have to know the name of what you want to do, and you tell the editor to do it!

I found a heap of their magazines from the 60’s and 70’s in the recycling at my university, and boy are they a good read. I think one reason they used to be so good (speculating) was that the internet didn’t exist. It was a medium where you

I’m amazed that this idea never crossed by mind or my twitter feed. I am usually a dissenter of notebooks, but I could see this being a great use case. Especially for debugging LM programs. Usually I make logs and have to manually set break

Maybe we will need “human farms” in response to bot farms. Maybe “professional human” will be a viable career option if human created data accrues extreme economic value.

I love Letters of Note. Each post features reflection on letters that were sent/written at some point in time, often but not always by notable people. They are whimsical, short, and have introduced me to many interesting facts and rabb

I wonder if eye tracking could be used as a vim motion if it becomes really good on new vr/ar headsets. Vim is already fast, but…

With any luck projects like MLC will help close the gap https://github.com/mlc-ai/mlc-llm

LMQL helps a lot with this kind of thing. It makes it really easy to swap prompts and models out, and in general it allows you to maintain your prompt workflows in whatever way you maintain the rest of your python code. I’m expecting there

You should check out “Neuromancer” by William Gibson. I think most of us are more unimaginative than we know wrt what the future can look like

The obsidian vim bindings can also be modified with the vimrc plugin. It lets you hook into obsidian’s native features with normal mode maps e.g. for pane splitting and navigation.

I’ve also found that GPT4 is fantastic at kabalistic interpretations. I asked it to interpret names and historical events prompting it with the first two paragraphs of this interlude from UNSONG https://unsongbook.com/interl

I kind of disagree that we will “build” goal directed AI. I think it’s something that gets discovered by accident, like life. Kind of like an accidental chemical replicator near a volcanic vent, we might happen to make a purpose built syste

I think it started off because humans are humans, and have an easier time talking to something rather than “talking something”. One purpose of RLHF is so that the models tend to work well when you speak to them like that

I thought it was interesting to see how they are presenting it to a general audience. So far AI search tools feel geared towards “serious questions”, you have to choose to go out of your way to use them. I thought it was interesting to see

Was it crystal by chance? I meant to have a look at it but never bothered, if it is maybe I will. As for the SQLish approach, I’m not sure, it just seems to fit. I think it came from the way that there’s a thing you are requesting, and you

Yeah the semantics are very weird, but I guess “prompt engineering” is weird too, so it makes sense :) . Everything between “sample” and “from” is basically a script that generates a prompt, which is incrementally fed to the LM. Each line c

I’m making a similar “chatbot backend” kind of thing right now, meant to be configurable and versatile, while avoiding dependencies. It’ll be compatible with stuff like llama index and pinecone but doesn’t impose it. I’ll have a minimal fou

LMQL (language model query language) is a different take on prompting, and I find it less restrictive and more intuitive. Langchain is to LMQL what Keras is to Tensorflow https://lmql.ai/
