Kind of shocking to see so much angst against memorization here. Memory has been long thought to be a critical component of intelligence, with elaborate mnemonics systems developed by people to help memorize more things (see Francis Yates&#

I think this is the point of the Attention portion in an llm, to use context to skew the embedding result closer to what youre looking for. It does seem a little strange 'ruler' would be closer to 'king' versus something

Maybe 'new information' can be generated by taking existing data and finding new relationships between that data. If that were the case, the original embedding for that data would change (new relationships = new associations). I

Hey can you guys elaborate how this works? I'm looking at the Ollama section in their docs and it talks about load balancing? I don't understand what that means in this context.

Quick question, is this just pure C code that can be loaded into an Nvidia gpu and run (via the python code)? I scanned the C and didn't see anything CUDA related (maybe I missed something, I'm not a GPU programmer!). K mentions

I am curious what laws require deep packet inspection on in transit data. Is this mostly to stop 'bad' packets before they reach an endpoint?

What does it mean to 'treat gravity approximately (that is, perturbatively)'? That sounds like something we do to model, which only approximates reality. That model sounds like it shouldn't be used to predict anything else?

I was on the edge of my seat in a very novel way for the first half or so of the first book, then it turned fantasy (to me) quick. I know people are claiming this is hard sci-fi, it's not. But there are some very interesting ideas and

I was just skimming this and I thought there were easy ways of decompiling into C source as well with generated function names like a, b, c or whatever. Could one just dump that sort of minimized C code into an llm and have it generate va

I'm not an ML guy but does it actually matter that OpenAI doesn't disclose it's source? Who cares? They proved the transformer arch and everyone knows how to replicate what they did. That's pretty open. The sauce is

I think the deal is that these breakthroughs, aren't really great in any general case. It helps with specific instances of work, and makes individuals way more productive. That by itself might won't end up making some people obs
