I understand your argument. The recipe that finally let RLHF + SFT work without strip mining base knowledge was real R&D, and GPT 4 class models wouldn’t feel so "chatty but competent" without it. I just still see ceiling effe

In the context of our conversation and what OP wrote, there has been no breakthrough since around 2018. What you're seeing is the harvesting of all low-hanging fruit from a tree that was discovered years ago. But fruit is almost gone.

What's interesting about the Cayman Islands is that they are the 4th largest holder of U.S. debt, with $441 billion[1]. So USD flows into Cayman banks, and those banks need to do something with the massive amounts of money just sitting

I have a friend who's vibe-coding apps. He has a lot of them, like 15 or more, but most are only 60–90% complete (almost every feature is only 60-90% complete), which means almost nothing works properly. Last time he showed me somethin

Yep. Agents are only powered by clever use of training data, nothing more. There hasn't been a real breakthrough in a long time.

It really depends on what you're working on and what was included in the training data of the model you used. From a model architecture point of view, they're basically all the same, the main difference lies in the training data.

It's actually super easy. I modified Chromium's internal code myself to do what I wanted, I added some logic in C++ and then compiled it. It just works. They mainly want to gather more data and have access to more functionality, s
