There are already real bias actualized on the name and gender of the applicant at the very first stage of company hiring. Late stage investigations credit reports, public court records, online social profiles can happen but rarely do. Compa

There are large scale "public" or non-profit web communities like Wikipedia. They come with a different set of challenges around governance.

They still need the content creators to create :) which I think they have done a good job of at least creating FOMO of top posts gathering monitory props.

Maybe read only query getting larger than the GET length limit indicates it's post-processing the object for you and not a "cachable" resource from a key value retrieval perspective? I.e your POST'ing a read only query s

Google owns a bit over 5% of Uber at 70B and a very high percentage of waymo at 30B evaluation. (last measured) so incentive is for Waymo to succeed / grow. It seems counter intuitive to me that they do a strategic partnership with Ube

I don't know .. we do have ads on the Internet and these do cost money to run. Can't you pay less than a penny a user to run ads in Gmail today ? The idea is fair though I don't think it's far from where we landed with h

Hmm have they not corrected the arm issue ? Won't the technology evolve to tackle it's shortcomings as it always has ? I don't think we complain about digital projection vs film the same way we did 20 years ago ?

I think it's getting better. In my experience and it's certainly useful for unit tests speeding things up for me pretty dramatically. Also when working on a new development language was quick to point out "how you do that&quo

There is nothing to prevent a robust hierarchy of rules and training that impacts levels of permissions per operator intent. OpenAi has made a lot of progress on this in a very short amount of time. Casual jailbreaking or negative role play

It banks on the experience that many have had where delaying a decision has resulted in "Lossing" out on staying where (or at a price) you wanted. Much worse if coordinating with multiple parties going on the trip :) I guess the m

The real test is the other way around ;) ... will smaller models / less compute be able to subvert larger models with larger compute ? As they get more complex and have more connected systems that would be problematic I think.

Revenue targets are certainly dynamic but avoiding user churn is important too. So you want to keep cost per impression up. You would not want to saturate and devalue. Better to play 10 ads at 10c each vs 20 ads at 4 or 5c, as high ad load

It's certainly not direct physical violence to citizens of an established world power that is a concern. It's pushing things in one direction or another politically. See well documented: Intelligence community v.s Trump v.s Facebo
