People on HN are not regular users in any way, shape or form. It's just the "cognitive load" UX idea, with extremely non-technical people having extremely low limits before they decide to never try again, or just feel intimid

The advantages of having a single big memory per gpu are not as big in a data center where you can just shard things between machines and use the very fast interconnect, saturating the much faster compute cores of a non Apple GPU from Nvidi

AI is threatening to remove humans from the whole equation except the very top. AI is an existential threat (not in the Terminator sense). Especially for art, I'm an AI researcher myself (in bio for health), but I think that ppl are co

I think it's not uncommon to ask an LLM for the bibtex for a paper you know about, & it might mess it up, but that doesn't feel like a fireable offense

This interpretation would have been ok for old generation models without search tools enabled and without reliable tool use and reasoning. Modern LLMs can actually look up the existence of papers with web search, and with reasoning, one can

Isn't this mostly a set of citation typos? To me this mostly calls for better bibtex checking, writing and checking bibtex is super annoying

Architecture difference wrt vanilla transformers and between modern transformers are a tiny part of what makes a model nowadays

I suspect they will keep doing this until they have a substantially better model than the competition. Sharing methods to look good & allow the field to help you keep up with the big guys is easy. I'll be impressed if they keep pub

yes, they turned off all energy economy measures when benchmarking software activity was detected, which completely broke the point of the benchmarks because your phone is useless if it's very fast but the battery lasts one hour

I would assume that huge amount is spent in frontier models just making the models nicer to interact with, as it is likely one of the main things that drives user engagement.

this is such a bad way to evaluate a metric. we want something that can distinguish small percentage changes in affordability for the people who live there

Sidenote, it's interesting how the term "virtue signaling" is arguably objectively an individualistic right-wing dog whistle these days. I would argue that it is being used all over the media to complain about anyone showing

That's one of the things that users think they want, but use the product 30x when it's not actually that way, a bit like follow-only mode by default on Twitter etc.

I don't know why you assume that people are saying negative things about PyTorch. Most people by very very far really love it.

In the US, one has to remember that megacorps usually end up winning, as people mostly only care about money and blindly supporting corporations is seen as pro-economy. There are also no limits on political financial contributions, and peop

the models are huge, so not a single (latest gen) one can fit on a single GPU. It's likely that these are small unpopular (non flagship) models, or that they only pack eg one layer of each model.
