I think a significant limitation is that LLMs stop learning after training is over. The large context is not really that large, and even within it, LLMs lose track of the conversation or of important details. There are other limitations, li

The way I understood it, the author is saying that, with this change, big values disappear, and we can then use fewer bits to encode the output of transformers, which means reducing the memory requirements of the network. Memory being the l

Rephrasing some of the comments below, if you are looking to avoid the effects of a candy or a soft drink, you should avoid fruit juice - eat the whole fruit instead, that's actually healthy. Blending fruit makes the entire sugar conte

I recommend the podcast series "Supernova in the East" by Dan Carlin, which covers Japan during WW2. He is a great storyteller, and goes into a lot of historical detail, fitting lots of primary sources. The atomic bombs are in the

I found ChatGPT helpful in a bunch of diverse situations. I'll go into detail below, but overall I think the most valuable thing it can do is understand questions that takes both knowledge (that I don't have and want to acquire) a

We don't learn by gradient descent, but rather by experiencing an environment in which we perform actions and learn what effects they have. Reinforcement learning driven by curiosity, pain, pleasure and a bunch of instincts hard-coded

I think the energy required to capture co2 is needed to run fans that force the air through filters. The filters themselves are passive.

I assume the thinking is that the filters placed in a car will have (more) air flow go through them by virtue of the car moving. It's as if you placed the filters in a facility that didn't have to run fans to force air through the

That carbon comes from animals and plants that took it from the atmosphere in the first place. It's the normal carbon cycle: we don't drink oil. Well, not the kind that's extracted from underground and so is out of the carbon

Is it true that you can actually withdraw it all the day you retire to buy real estate and then the government will start giving out a pension for you? This is something I was told by some Australians.

Sabine Hossenfelder recently made a video about hydrogen. Her point is that it is not a good choice for decarbonization, but as part of the video she goes though the various "hydrogen colors" and their meaning. https://

I enjoyed the Alexandra Quick series so far (still being written). It's a fan fiction in the Harry Potter universe set in the US, with almost no reference to any character in the HP books. The books expand on the magic system in satisf
