It’s not my favorite channel, I don’t even have a subscription to it, but for such a mainstream and popular channel it’s honestly pretty good. Each time I stumbled upon a video of LTT, it ranged from "great" to "really ok&quo

One of the reason i don’t want openAI to die isn’t only the (impressive) power of GPT-4. Actually, it’s the mobile application. They should have opted for a boring PWA but instead they developed a nice native application with good UI/U

LLMs are not even close to AGI but they fake it enough that we can be pretty sure humans will allow them to take arbitrary decisions without further control. Will LLM kill us all and rule the world, no. Will LLM kill some of us because som

The thing is, if you want to sort a list, LLM is the wrong tool. However, if what you want is to generate a program that will sort a list, your LLM will be pretty performant. It’s a powerful tool but like any powerful tool, you will use it

That’s an issue and a lot of people and regulators are actively fighting against it. Also, any of those restrictions are hardware/software enforced. You can do whatever the hell you want with it if you happen to find how to circumvent

I’ve worked in a lot of languages, from PHP 3 to Rust, F# and Typescript and a lot of others. So I’m relatively educated about their differences and pretty open minded about languages but I still don’t understand why there is still a debate
