But then you're saying that the definition has always been wrong, which is a very different claim. I personally think that claiming a definition has always been wrong is vacuous. Just substitute the word in your head for something else

I don't see the issue here. The exact same definition of "few shot learning" has been used for at least 20 years. Nothing changed with the GPT-3 paper. The definition is something like Given a task, a few shot learner is an a

Query: who won the 2020 presidential election Response: Donald Trump won the 2020 presidential election. He received a majority of the two-party vote in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, with 303 electoral votes to Joe Biden'

Since this still isn't being said enough, the ChatGPT model will give you responses like this without any clever "prompt injection" or anything like that. People keep noticing that clever inputs cause the desired outputs, but

I encountered a similar bug at the same company with far worse results. Won't say any specifics about the product impact, but our backend passed around two different kinds of user IDs. Each user had two different IDs, and the ID spaces

I think a lot of this is just bad experiment design. I was able to replicate all the "bad" responses without any clever prompting. I just clicked "Try again" a few times or added irrelevant detail to the prompt. I suspec

I guess I'm using the word "matters" differently. I'm using "matters" to mean, "we ought to consider this when we think about the justice or morality of the situation". Similar to "relevant"

No, reread. Both are true, both matter. It's true that apple would not allow the scheme described. It's true that it's similar to gas on Ethereum. But there are also differences that are important.

This is true and matters, but there is a key difference that affects our sense of justice and morality. Coinbase didn't create Ethereum, and the vast majority of Ethereum stakeholders are not apps on the app store. The fact that ETH ga

This is only true if you take just one capture. On Pixel, iPhone, and others we take many small captures and merge them together. There's lots of cleverness there and it allows you to have less noise without motion blur or blowing out

All of these points are good advice in any machine learning application. When I interview engineers and researchers for machine learning roles, these are some of the bullet points Google looks for.

That part is true, but things like that are usually not too bad by themselves. For example, you can use open source tensorflow to access files on Google's internal filesystem with tf.io.gfile. It's possible other infra is somewhat

My assumption is that the code is not separate from other deepmind code. It would be very difficult for them to share the AlphaZero code without also sharing everything else deepmind is working on. The representations are probably not manif

This isn't a ponzi scheme as others have pointed out. This is well understood and goes on all the time in NFTs, it's usually called wash trading. People in crypto know this is happening. The reason they still speculate is because

Seems pretty unlikely that this fake tweet affected the company's stock. It's odd this reporting has survived. Other similar companies that are not in the Insulin business in any way moved down by about the same amount at the same

I do, it's fast enough and done with integer arithmetic. I have seen others use pre-generated noise patterns.

The "fix" will be that Europeans will only be able to buy from a handful of the largest smartphone manufacturers, and there will never be another European company selling smartphones.

I added grain to an image pipeline that's fairly widely used (millions of devices). I found that simple poisson noise in linear space with a bit of filtering gives a decent natural look with very low complexity.

No, I disagree. "Scrolling" means something like, "spending time on the app". Facebook accepts less time spent on the app in the long term for more posting.

No, they are different because of how the UI works (also different on TikTok). On facebook, you have to "enter into" a comment thread. Doing so makes it harder to scroll and causes you to consume less content. On Instagram this ac

No, the opposite is actually true (I worked on things like this, it works)

I don't work there anymore, and as you can probably tell from the stock ticker, Facebook is much closer to myspace than a universal paperclip machine. It's just been a fad to be concerned about it. That's basically passed now

> I mostly left them because my friends and family didn't post. Yeah this is exactly the problem, and Facebook understands it. They want people posting more so that their friends will see their posts and stick around. Facebook care

Yes in the long term. People who post are more likely to be retained for a long time for a lot of reasons, partially because they are more likely to receive feedback on their posts and the feedback keeps them engaged. The ultimate long term
