Very interesting tgat you mention bad math teachers. I agree. During my teaching assistant stint during graduate studies in applied and pure math, I had one student who was failing. Talking to her I learned that a math teacher in high scho

AI models compete with movie script writers. I believe the current writers strike in Hollywood includes ChatGPT4 related issues amongst many others.

Alternately, if they have the “right skills” why is this happening? Clearly they don’t have some of the needed skills to prevent this. And a self-DDOS might be a good indication of that.

You may not, there are communities though that might. People who live in the “blast radius” of a polluting entity like a refinery might want to aggregate data over time to see if there’s a slow leak or whether the entity is emitting excessi

Cloud VM possible, not sure. Is it possible to run on HuggingFace without compromising data privacy?On-premise preferred. Capital cost to get to “Hello world” will probably convince principals to use HuggingFace if data privacy concerns can

Yes mostly answering questions and also summarizing and exploring by asking for explanations (understanding there could be non trivial amounts of hallucination) Really appreciate you offering advice. Will book time after the long weekend.

The LLM needs to be run locally. So it can’t be a GPT API or an API for some cloud LLM. The docs can’t leave the perimeter. It can be a Pretrained model that is being “extended” (is there such a thing?) with the new docs. Alternately it can

Importantly it’s a vector space with a metric. Not just an array of vectors. The original Word2Vec paper had the jaw dropping “king - man + woman -> queen” which needs the ability to do addition/subtraction on vectors. Also words “c

Per capita emissions are a distraction. The earth’s atmosphere doesn’t care how many people were involved. What matters is total emissions. On that front China leads by a factor of 4 or 5 over India and the U.S. which are roughly the same.

Nothing was ever free. Even Usenet. Universities and Internet savvy corporations ran Usenet servers. That’s why it was free to the rest of us. I tried running a Usenet node in 1995 or so on a 486/33 getting a feed from UC Berkeley. Had

Meta question - why do we need the latest version of a text book every year. None of the undergraduate fundamental subjects change every year. It’s a racket - problems and some content are modified a bit and moved around making last year’s

His product vision is to make it into a one stop application with all media and e-commerce - something he calls X. The whole free speech platform thing is a distraction. There’s no money in free speech. It’s just a way to lure maximum numb

This line of thinking may be confusing “sufficient” with “necessary”. I don’t believe Chomsky’s thesis and Kapatsinki’s statement are mutually exclusive. They could both be true. Chomsky didn’t appear to have made a general statement about

Attention and the Transformer make it possible to recognize that the probability of “black” applying to the cat is much much higher than to the mat due to the phrasing “which is” in between the cat and black.

Yes but to get all the raw data into a form that can be queried by SQL or getting a tool that can query JSON, CSV … via SQL is the non trivial part. Not to mention reconciling date formats etc from multiple sources into one format. 80% of
