You're right, I'm assuming that the interview should resemble the knowledge needed in the actual job as much as possible. Maybe there are exceptions but I think that's a pretty fair assumption. I think that's the reason

I don't think the following are world-changing use cases, but I would absolutely pay for ChatGPT right now. I am using it for the following: - Generate boilerplate code. It won't be exactly what I need, but often I want to get a

Did you read the rest of my comment? If the test was good and the machine passes, that means you could just hire the machine instead and wouldn't need to complain about it. You'd be happy because that's much cheaper than hiri

If ChatGPT can solve your questions what does that say about your questions? That they don't assess the skillet you care about. If your questions were useful and actually tested for the skillet you cared about and ChatGPT solves them,

I agree with the sentiment in the article, but I also believe this kind of development is inevitable. How else are you going to to create increasingly complex high-level software if not by gluing together pieces that have already been writt

I think it's important to consider incentives. When you search for a topic that's controversial or political you will find lots of spam in Google. But in that case you understand that you need to approach the results with care and

The problem is that you cannot trust the output. It's often wrong, but in subtle nonobvious ways. For precise information you still need to check the sources to make sure what you're getting is correct. You can test it out with a

I didn't say you cannot publish without a PhD. Rather, it's incredibly difficult to get a position in a good research lab without a PhD due to market forces and competition. Publishing in top venues also requires a certain skillse

Unsurprising given how it works, but the higher-level implications are somewhat unexpected. These model are extremely good when they have creative freedom and are used to produce some kind of art. Poems, text in various styles, images witho

You essentially have two choices: - Get your PhD and try to become a researcher at one of the labs. Super crowded now, but basically the only way if you want to do research. - Become a ML engineer, data scientist, etc. While you will be wor

And even if everything is secure right now, you cannot guarantee this stays the case in the future. By using the "tailscale ecosystem" you are locking yourself into a provider that can change the ecosystem (clients, services, serv

You realize nobody like that would ever publicly say anything bad about Elon, right? It's all driven by incentives. Just like would publicly say anything bad about FTX's SBF because they need to stay on his good side. Statements l

I assume you mean borrowing an asset. You cannot short most assets because for most of them only spot markets exist, no derivatives. So the ability to have a short position on these assets is a big use case.

I have never heard of SALT, but what you describing sounds like an overcollateralized loan to me. One use case would be to short something. For example, you could deposit USDC and borrow ETH. Sell ETH, wait for price to go down, buy it back

I think a lot of people are missing that it was not 16 liquid USD that was lost here. It was 16B of various assets on paper. That's different from a pretty liquid stock traded on the NYSE. The 16B could've never been liquidated as

What a bunch of BS. It's obviously easy to say that in hindsight. There are a million reasons for why he did not take the investment, but in none of the published conversation was anything about him thinking SBF is lying. In fact, know

Exactly. With the perfect order flow information and ability to front-run other MMs and takers Alameda should've been highly profitable just making markets on FTX. How could they lose so much money...
