Microsoft is the winner here. They will probably use Sam/Greg's technical know how to reproduce GPT4 internally, and also direct future research based on current OpenAI approaches which they are certainly aware of. This also shiel

The crypto bros switched to AI hype and are now hyping OpenAI/GPT4 hoping to pump MSFT/NVDA. In every HN conversation where someone mentions competing products, there are people talking it down and saying GPT4 is miles ahead, and

I for one thought Karpathy would side with the core researchers and not the corpos. To me, this whole ordeal is a clash between profit motives of Sam vs Non Profit and Safety motives of OpenAI's original charter. I mean didn't HN

Yes, I felt the same. In every piece, there was very little news but a lot of fluff to lead the public with opinions. Probably VCs saw their money burning and wanted Sam back at the helm to protect their asset.

That is just current narrative, we don't know the details right? There was immense pressure from investors/Microsoft and board had to have that meeting. But the board probably already made their mind and did not balk under pressur

Yes, the media and the general conversation seems very one sided; and I do not see any basis to take a side. Sam being an overachiever, might actually be acting with maleficence and deceit. Why is no-one even considering that? Everyone is j

Is it possible to validate what I am running in browser is an unaltered version of what is there in Github? Otherwise, I will have to trust the package author to not be malicious. Another option might be to personally package and sideload t

Can the FP32 and Tensor core modules compute at the same time, or are they an abstraction over the underlying silicon, and we can only utilize one at a time?

Here I give my analysis of what the best solution could be. Would like to know your thoughts too. 0. Lower rate from 30% to 15% -Apple still has monopoly, nothing changes. 1. Side loading apps: Not good! malicious apps can run amok, eg. $BI

With that there is no credibility to the blog being actually generated by GPT-3, or at least being heavily cherry picked.

Well, Apple were at the right place at the right time. There is quite a bit of input from their side, but don't underplay the huge role of luck. And there is also network effect, once they had healthy numbers, people flock to them, so

He talks about fixing Exceptions in c++, what is wrong with exceptions in c++ and how would you fix those? Go does not have exceptions, but I don't think Go's method of checking for error on every step and doing early returns is m

No, Twitter just needs a switch that will display 'posted by a bot' in place of 'posted via Twitter for iPhone'.

I can't stop but speculate if departure of Ive had anything to do with this. I guess there was a lot of push-back internally about this, but because of Ive, they had to endure 4 generations of butterfly switches. Touchbar also is just

I must clarify, not out of the features listed by GP, but the features listed on the website. No ill will towards you, but the source of all the problems seems to be - how you present the state of language on the website as if it already ha

Yes, a very good feature set "to have". I think, at this point not even half of them are implemented. The author is doing a major disservice by presenting as if everything is complete in the main website.

Let's not consider it released until the source is released. So much confusion surrounding this language. Edit: The author has redacted the binary release and says will release the binaries with the source on July 22nd [1], thus, this

I hope that this makes browsing with Chrome so bloated with ads and tracking that it is faster and efficient to browse with browsers that allow users to get rid of unwanted cruft. That may be the selling point to switch from Chrome in the f

Yeah, I have been using Firefox since 2007. I don't experience any crashes or bugs regarding performance or usability. But I have been facing issues with websites which don't work at all or developed with only Chrome in mind. And
