Let’s run a crowdfunding campaign for the cable. I’m midway and will want a piece of that as well.

Always felt the same way, but could never put it in words as eloquently as you just did. Python (or any other programming language) already is the best glue. With these frameworks, you just waste brain cycles on learning APIs that change an

Came here to ask the same thing. Also, if they are all on the same IP, what about reverse dns lookups?

You also got trained by ~5k hours of unedited real-time first person footage before you started to speak.

Also, it’s aluminum. So no rust, ever.

You’ll need a whole new class of training data. A camera strapped to someone’s head as they go about their day, scaled across continents, age groups and occupations. You can’t rely on YouTube, since that’s all edited. Not at all how a toddl

You may have written this yourself, but it totally sounds like a ChatGPT answer. If you stare too long into the abyss, the abyss stares back into you.

Why not buy a used 2014 Model S? It has a screen, sure. But it’s basically just battery and muscle.

I tried the same thing for my kids: Take some article or book written for adults. Maybe some archaeological discovery, interesting stuff from HN. Or science books from the 1960s. Then have it turned into a conversation between the father an

They should call it “lobotomy”. The picture on top of the article looks pretty much like what Walter Freeman would have used as an ad in the 1930s for his door-to-door “ice pick through the eye socket” procedure.

Yep. Safety for the publisher. In addition to what the sibling comments say, there’s also payment providers and App stores. They’ll test your app, trying to get your model to output content that falls under the category “extreme violence”,

Much faster: cook onion with a bit of water, as though it was rice. Keep the lid closed and the temperature so high that steam escapes, basically steaming the onion. When the water has evaporated, add fat (butter, bacon, or whatever you wan

That’s impressive. I’m sure I’ve done this many shutter clicks in one day.

Why not overlapping sizes? (1), (1,2), (1,2,3) Sometimes the match is in a single sentence. Sometimes in the full paragraph. Sometimes across two paragraphs. If, in your top n results, some of these items overlap, you use the greater unit.

They don’t have to be perfect. With Wisper and LLMs it’s easy to later filter out the interesting parts. Or even to turn it into some kind of personal memoir booklet.

Leo Tolstoy, What I Believe: Just like the winegrowers, who, living in a garden not cultivated by them, had to understand and feel that they were in immeasurable debt to the landlord, people must also understand and feel that from the day o

Is she still alive? I can recommend interviewing her about the past and recording it. There may come a time where you will be glad to have those recordings. Or your children/grandchildren. Also, given the right prompting, you may learn

I agree. Especially the ownership thing. Tangent: I remember my mother, in the 1980s, getting a parking ticket. So she had to go to the local police officer. We were a tiny town, a village almost. But there was a police station. And the off

Difficult to calculate, with inflation and everything. But I do remember from the 1980s that a roll of bread was ~2 Euro cents (5 Pfennig), nominally. And now it’s ~20. With industrial baking, modern fertilizers, farming automation, global

You mean like kids looking forward to growing up. But once you’re grown up, or even old, there just isn’t anything to look forward to anymore?

Point taken. Can’t get more textbook survivorship bias. :)

Had a very similar thought this morning. With the amount of technology today, we should be the happiest, wealthiest generation alive. My grandmother, born in the 1920s, still experienced hunger as a child, fled from the Russians through the

Chomsky, of all people? Chomsky rose to fame by attacking BF Skinner’s book “Verbal Behavior”. Which is the book that made exactly the case you’re making now, only some 60 years ago. Skinner would marvel at today’s LLMs. They are the most e

I’m a lawyer and do the same thing. YYMMDD_ENTITY_TOPIC is a template I use a lot when dealing with lots of documents in large cases. Regex and Keyboard Maestro were my main tools before LLMS became a thing.

My take is that Elon’s basically saying: We don’t give a s%#* about people wanting to use AI to write SEO spam, automate their customer support or generate content to keep the kids quiet. We want to use this tech as a tool to solve real wor
