When I read "from scratch", I assume they are doing pre-training, not just finetuning, do you have a different take? Do you mean it's normal Llama architecture they're using? I'm curious about the benchmarks!

The behaviour is problematic, also Grok 4 might be relating "one word" answers to Elon's critique of ChatGPT, and might be seeking related context to that. Others demonstrated that slightly prompt wording changes can cause qu

The deferential searches ARE bad, but also, Grok 4 might be making a connection: In 2024 Elon Musk critiqued ChatGPT's GPT-4o model, which seemed to prefer nuclear apocalypse to misgendering when forced to give a one word answer, and G

You're right, and when the behaviour of large codebases violates expectations, the intertwined webs of code are problems. Alan Kay's Viewpoints Research studied this, and famously Kay proposed "t-shirt sized algorithms",

High value comments / posts are good to look for, though high value political discussion is almost an oxymoron. The post about it here was the first I heard of it, which is valuable to me. Zombot's comment (44133962) quotes TFA: &

The Guardian article is a new analysis about unchecked AI technology use by a government health official claiming to support science. Surely that’s HN-worthy, not off-topic? Is it fair to assume any element of politics involvement will be l

In my experience, on a public bus there is reasonable chance of getting a working USB A socket. But as a private business, it's not a complete replacement of the public bus system, however apps are used by people already to book on-the

Vibe coding is fine but right now it dominates the pitch, and it's a stark contrast to Vannevar Bush's grand vision of memory expansion. Even if you want it to be more, the pitch makes the name hard to justify and could harm trust

I think using the name Memex for "a tool for vibe coding" is a big mistake, especially if you have more general ambitions. Vannevar Bush says in As We May Think: “Consider a future device … in which an individual stores all his

Whoever downvoted, a comment explaining why would be nice, when the cell tower generators are out, and there is only phone battery left, offline communication options could be useful, I'm glad I'm not in that position right now.
