Agreed. I personally think it is the ultimate piece of equipment for sound reproduction from computers or personal recordings, unless one has a set of very specialized cans that it could even drive. But of course sound sensitivity is subje

One of my favorite FPGA gadgets is the mojo 2 headphone amplifier by Chord electronics. The amplifier is nearly flawless. Coming from the old days of tube amplifiers and amazing analogue devices it is nice to see how far the digital circui

Isn’t that the same with most engineering disciplines though? A nuclear engineer cannot build a nuclear power station at home, a chemical engineer or process chemist doesn’t have access to the industrial grade infrastructure outside of the

I agree that utilization by nvidia-smi is a poor proxy for performance. FWIW, I’ve found that for the same architecture the power consumption reported in nvtop very often correlates super nicely with the training performance and the peak pe

Many of the people in this engaging story feel to me like creative children in parties full of gossip and pseudo-philosophical chats about the future. Luckily there are enough people globally who build things that will reduce human sufferin

You can tell ChatGPT that it’s brilliant at reasoning, ask it to rephrase the problem in its own words and then solve it avoiding any traps. I have special instruction sets for inducing these chain of thought behaviors. There is more outpu

One simple counterargument to those who think that our planet dying is a rationale for driving their desire for going to mars is that the most habitable part of mars is incomparably worse/more dead than the worst possible place on eart

The problem is not the trial. The problem was an out of order early approval after only a phase two trial with very weak evidence. The phase three trial of course would go on even without such an out-of-order approval. The false hope such a

You may have a point. Perhaps naively I imagined that if competitive gamers can handle it, they may be useful enough for piano. Currently the CPU software is lacking in quality (though improving over time) but has acceptable latency compare

Yes but without the need for the full furniture. One should be able to miniaturize everything else but the action. I think such compact designs will eventually appear but the difference in real action versus very good hybrid digital actio

I agree. Perhaps I was unclear. I was hoping that someone can use the exact action of the grand piano, but skip the strings, soundboard and so on.

I’ve often wondered about the reverse. Get the finest grand piano action, like the ones used in the Fazioli, and create a minimal mechanical unit that has just that piece and the pedals (with the action mechanics that connect the left&#x2F

Thank you for the repo and write up. What tools (if any) did you use for performance tuning once you achieved the main goal of being able to finetune the model?

Interesting perspective about possible Jax optimizations. Assuming these models are trained and deployed on non-TPU hardware, are there any real advantages in using Jax for deployment on GPU? I’d have assumed that inference is largely a so

Training LLM from scratch is a super important issue that affects the pace and breadth of iteration of AI almost as much as the raw hardware improvements do. The blog is fun but somewhat shallow and not technical or very surprising if you’

I don’t see any changes to the core mission of OpenAI between its founding and now. Maybe some people misinterpret what a nonprofit vs for-profit company status means and confuse the former with other types of organizations like academia or

In Python if you carelessly print within a multiprocess part of an application you may end up getting a nonreproducible mess on stdout with multiple streams merged at random points. So the cognitive load in this example is that this new lan

I don’t see how expecting a financial return is in conflict with the original mission statement. Of course the employees expect a financial return.

I still do not see the point that you are trying to make. Do you think that their current path is somehow constrained (instead of unconstrained) by a need to generate financial returns? I haven’t seen any evidence of a change to the core m

I still don’t understand why you think their initial motives were a facade. They have always been trying to get to AGI that will be useable by a large fraction of society. I am not sure this means they need to explain exactly how things wor

I hear people complain about the 'Open' a lot recently, but I'm not sure I understand this type of concern. Publications, for companies, are always PR and recruitment efforts (independent of profit or nonprofit status). I rec

Do you mind elaborating why you think it looks bad for OpenAI? I didn't see anything that diminishes their importance as an entity or hurts them in respect to this lawsuit or their reputation. In their internal emails from 2016 they ex

An interesting difference with the new pro models, if you want to pay around $5k, is that you can have 128Gb unified Ram in them and run inference locally with exciting LLMs.

In my not so humble opinion, AI will help medicine and will accelerate the design of new cancer therapies. Curing all possible forms of cancer almost seems like a red herring, given how fragile the human cells are, and how these cells g
