This is one thing people who shit on chatbots don't get. It doesn't need to be god to be useful, it just needs to beat out a human who is bored, underpaid, and probably under qualified.

Google did to AI what Bell did to magnetic recording: retarded it's progress for decades because they were afraid it would harm their main product. For those that don't know: >In early 1934, Clarence Hickman, a Bell Labs engine

LLMs get a lot of attention because they were the first architecture that could scale to a trillion parameters while still improving with every added parameter.

The point is that if you could make $100k from $1.5k in power then it makes no sense to not do it in a data center where you don't have to move the computers around and break them. If they'd make $1,000 I'd believe it.

It's difficult to explain to people how much it sucks to be on call 24/7 forever. Yeah, I've done less than two hours of work, but that doesn't mean I had 22 hours of free time.

The issue is that a company which was local first will not be able to turn into a remote company because the company culture is completely wrong for it. It is impossible to run a team locally the same way you do remotely. If the first insti

We had bloated UIs in the 80s and 90s, it's just that what's come after is so much worse. Try using the old analog control systems where responses are basically instant. It feels like the controls are reading your mind.

I rather enjoy doing that. It reduced my anxiety greatly when I realized just how little anyone making news understands what is going on. Doing it for the week, month, year and decade was even more educational.

They hurt Firefox by giving them money. If not for the big fat google pay check Firefox would have had to be a good browser instead of the piggy bank for the personal projects of its former ceo.

Depends on who is trying to sell you what. Currently all the tools on the market just use a different prompt and call it an agent. I've build a tool using different models for each agent, e.g. whisper for audio decoding, llava to detec

There is a lot more to agents than 'change the system prompt and send it again to the same model'. It's just that the tools to do this are non-existent and each application needs to be bespoke. It's like programming with

That's a bit like using a steam hammer to crack a nut. A much simpler way of thinking about it is: What is the chance that if I pick an infinite number of random natural numbers between 0 and 9 that all of them are 0? You're missi
