Don't big tech ask meaningless LeetCode problems because it serves as a proxy for IQ?

That is informative, I was suspecting that is how models improve their performance on some convoluted "non-googlabe" benchmarks like SimpleBench, that is how, they just got the taste of those those questions from publicly availabl

I guess that is good, competition should lower the margins with the time as it doesn't seem like any of AI labs have a particularly strong moat.

"Now you see why, when I meet a founder, the first thing I ask about is their growth rate." This obsession with growth instead of progress or value rubs me the wrong way, given the trend for enshittification of services sooner or

I thought usually founders try to pivot till they run out of money. I wonder if that is good or bad for a serial entrepreneurs if they decide to shut it down instead of pivoting?

I was also wondering if it will result in Helium shortage and even higher prices the next few years, then/if it will be all over, new fabs might also come online and it will be the opposite - a glut. I believe that follows the historic

What type of projects you work on, in particular how rich it is in novelty, non-googlable data points and non-trivial project-specific deviations from industry standards?

I wonder if it is reasonable to assume the propagation of shortages further. At first it was GPUs, then RAM, then what?

Andrej has decided to become a billionaire. Anthropic keeps preparing for the IPO. I wish they IPO soon, let everyone see how the earnings look like.

I'm also confused with that as well as the moral of the story as the whole. I get the sentiment but what is the lesson here, leave production capacity keep going as well as a "hiring pipeline" and just stock pile the output f

Anthropic will kick and scream as those are often distilled from their latest models and is cutting into their margin. Though it is not like their hands are clean neither, it is just a different type of stealing, an approved one :-)

Any publicly available evidence to back that up? There have been post-exit blog posts from OpenAI employees on HN before and it did sound like the only black magic they use there is that many employees work 16 hrs a day during launch of new

I wonder if this ends up like Tesla - China copies it and makes it cheaper - GG if not protected by huge tariffs/bans. It seems like US these days is just a testing ground for new tech that later scaled further and optimized in China.

Yeap, I recently came to realization that is useful to think about LLMs as assumption engines. They have trillions of those and fill the gaps when they see the need. As I understand, assumptions are supposedly based on industry standards, I

I was trying to find some more context on this but all I could find is that Rob Pike seems to care a lot about efficiency of software/hardware and against bloat which is expressed in his work on Golang and in related talks about it.

I was also surprised by that. It is relatively cheap to measure as you can just buy BP monitor and do it yourself at home. Considering that high BP is very often asymptomatic, I, for example, even feel better with high BP, many people walki

Does very large context significantly increase a response time? Are there any benchmarks/leader-boards estimating different models in that regard?
