Pretty sure that once the pre-trained models used for this are pre-trained on lots of video and get larger (2-3 orders of magnitude larger than this), things will quickly improve. This may already exist in prototype form behind closed doors

I took some AI courses around the same time as the author, and I remember the professors were actually big proponents of neural nets, but they believed the missing piece was some new genius learning algorithm rather than just scaling up wit

The VO2Max seems wildly inaccurate. It never activates when I exercise, but sometimes activates when I'm sleeping.

Could be the reason is aging is programmed and when food is scarce the program changes to delay aging, such that the organism has a better chance to survive longer and reproduce once food is less scarce and at that point turn up the rate of

Not exactly what I would call decentralized training. More like distributed through multiple data centers. Decentralized training would be when you can use consumer GPUs, but that's not likely to work with backpropagation directly, but

I think the fact this made it to the front page shows how many were unaware of the scanner in the files app. I have multiple times looked into ways to scan on iPhone and have only found the Notes app, which is kinda klunky, and Microsoft Le

It's the best way to self-study math really. I was previsouly trying using Susan Rigetti's "So You Want to Study Mathematics..." guide. It has been posted here a few times, but it's so easy to get lost in doing tons

This kind of problems is really not where LLMs shine. Where you save loads of time is when you need to write lots of code using unfamiliar APIs. Especially when it's APIs you won't work with a lot and spending loads of time learni

Source available means you can see the source, but not modify it. This is kinda the opposite, you can modify the model, but you don't see all the details of its creation.

For the downvoters, yes a slight exaggeration. The year I checked, 2019 was 1 vs around 30, so just slightly over an order of magnitude if you want.

With an ebike you can ride in bike lanes, sidewalks and many other places motorcycles are not allowed. They can also park loads of places motorcycles aren't allowed plus you get exercise.

How much energy was spent on the training run though? It's all the energy spent through the lifetime of trillions of organisms.

It's not really all that useful for AI training. The reason why energy is a problem for AI training is that you need a lot of compute at one place, distributing backpropagation doesn't work that well. When the energy problems hit,

Another thing I have noticed is that if you use ChatGPT and it at some points uses Bing to look up something, it becomes super lazy afterwards, going from page long responses on average to a single paragraph.
