We're not talking about open source code. We are talking about the MIT license. The two are not the same.

Not sure what piracy has to do with this. The point is that you've specifically let people do something then when they do it you're upset they did it. If you don't want them to do it, don't explicitly allow them to do it

This is a conversation I keep having with people who support permissive licenses. >Oh no, you're allowed to do whatever you want, but you shouldn't. >>Then why is Amazon allowed to do it if they shouldn't? >It&#x2

Looks like and is are two rather different things. You should probably talk to someone who knows what they are doing. Chances are you're doing damage to your body.

If you're doing strength training you'll be doing no more than 1 to 6 reps of whatever exercise in sets of 1 to 3. Large numbers of reps are for looking good, not actually being strong. This leads to the rather fun paradox that bo

On the contrary, the mainstream eats any slop you put infront of it as long as it follows the correct form - one needs only look at cable news - the super niche content is that which requires deep thinking and novel insights. Or to put anot

I've worked as a quant in energy markets and made a very tidy $10,000,000 in one day betting against solar and wind. The people who make those predictions are never held to account and can't find their ass with a GPS. One only nee

The price of solar power at midnight is infinite. By comparison nuclear is dirt cheap. People understand the fact it costs money to dig out coal from the ground and bring it to a power station. Yet they don't understand it costs money

And nuclear power plants would solve it for a fraction of the cost without the chance of a world wide power grid failure.

The original SQL was essentially Prolog restricted to relational algebra and tuple relational calculus. SQL as is happened when a lot of cruft was added to the mathematical core.

Bert is already not an LLM and the vector embedding it generates are not AI. It is also first general solution for natural language search anyone has come up with. We call them vector databases. Again I'd wager this is because they act

I've found that everything that works stops being called AI. Logic programming? AI until SQL came out. Now it's not AI. OCR, computer algebra systems, voice recognition, checkers, machine translation, go, natural language search.

Turning off the data center for 2/3rds of the year when the sun isn't shining sure is an idea.

Solar power is the least suited power source for dataceners other than wind. You need nuclear reactors or other base line power generation energy sources.

That's the point. That they are alive shows that their innate fitness minus the tail is higher than that of another alive peacock who doesn't have a tail. Or put another way: someone who wins the Olympic 100m sprint while hopping

I've not done pre-training for LLMs, but years ago I generated a completely synthetic dataset for table recognition using an off the shelf document segmentation model, raw TeX, a random table generator, a discriminator and an evolution

Taiwanese culture has also never understood software which is why they are stuck in the lower margin business of hardware. AMD and NVidia are important now because someone else struck gold on their property. Within 5 years they won't b

That was mostly a cover to build rockets that could land more accurately on Moscow. I'd rather we have the gambling.

One is a complaint that everything is constantly changing, the other that nothing ever changes. I don't think you could misunderstand what either is trying to say harder if you tried.

One only need to go to the dirtier corners of the llm forums to find some _very_ interesting voices there. To quote someone from a tor bb board: my chat history is illegal in 142 countries and carries the death penalty in 9.

Maybe, but for the first time in a century there is more money to be made in weakening copyright rather than strengthening it.

You're as helpful as the original gpt2.
