If everyone 30+ bmi can get to 30 for “free” (not sure where the subsidizing stops, for me it’s free if I’m over 30 bmi), that’s just too tantalizing to pass up, even if the moral applies. At least it takes a load off one problem (obesity r

Well said. As someone with only a math undergrad and as a math RLHF’er, this speaks to my experience the most. That craving for an understanding an elegant proof is nowhere to be found with verifying an LLM’s proof. Like sure, you could put

Scale AI is a big one who owns companies who do this as well, such as Outlierai. There are many other AI trainer job companies though. A lot of it is gig work but the pay is more than the vast majority of gig jobs.

At a certain level they are identical problems. My strongest piece of evidence is that I get paid as an RLHF'er to find ANY case of error, including "tokenization". You know how many errors an LLM gets in the simplest grid pu

Irrelevant info is taught in grade skill and is a skill for the SAT for example. Basically any kind of model (not just LLMs/ML) has to distill out irrelevant info. The point is having an answer that you can defend logically and most pe

I don’t think it’s about junk vs not junk here. It’s whether this is novel enough data compared to the billions of images and hours they already possess. Since others have already said these are fundamentally different than pointing and sho

Wow that quote is absolutely crazy. “Discovery of all of physics”. I think that’s the worst puffery/lie I’ve ever heard by a CEO. Science requires experiments so the next LLM will have to be able to design CERN+++ level experiments dow

Yes and it was never a point, it was just much much denser but still infinite. And so uniform there was no net direction for collapse before expansion took over.
