It could very quickly become racist, but it isn't necessarily. The Masters of Scale podcast recently did a nice episode on using a voice clone of Reid Hoffman to help with various dubs and edits: https://mastersofscale.com

It sounds like you're viewing "OOM" as "Out of Memory", when the parent meant "Order of Magnitude" - meaning that a baby's "training data" is several Orders of Magnitude more than what the D

As someone who periodically listens to papers via text-to-speech, I was intrigued when I saw this link. I'm a little uncertain about the "AI simplification" - If I'm reading a paper I don't want to have the second g

This is the perfect follow-on to your joke: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vv445S62dgU ("When People Hear You Have A Hobby").

I would really love an `ocrmypdf` like tool which uses Apple Vision to create searchable PDFs from scanned images. I've been searching every week or so for some kind of project but so far haven't found anything. Perhaps it's

I've spent the last couple weeks diving into various PDF parsing solutions for scientific documents. GROBID is pretty cool, but it made some mistakes when trying to parse (I think arxiv) papers which removed some of the text. Even thou

> We’re currently using Mixtral 8x7B behind our endpoint mistral-small... So 45 billion parameters is what they consider their "small" model? I'm excited to see what/if their larger models will be.

That's me exactly. I used to eat half a bar of 85% - 100% dark daily. The (relatively) recent info on heavy metals has me really bummed. Why is everything always so toxic these days??? My new goal is to figure out how to get all this h

How come the blog post doesn't discuss training at all? Which data sets were used? How many tokens was it trained on? I couldn't seem to find a linked preprint or anything else really

This resonated with me, thank you for writing it. My own personal rule now is that video game playing should also be social time. I started playing BG3 using wine (on Mac) when it came out, but only with friends. Gaming time is (crucial) so

I'm hoping that the Apple Game Porting Toolkit signals a shift to more games support. Thankfully, the Apple Silicon machines are powerful enough to support many modern games. I'm currently (and happily) playing Baldur's Gate

I don't normally engage with these kinds of comments but today I guess I'm extra curious: why is "paid sick leave" a "basic human right."? I don't disagree that it's a good and moral thing to offer, I

I think you may have misunderstood the OP and actually agree with him. He's saying that AAA studios (sometimes) spend more money to produce lower quality products, and that claims from some AAA studio devs that you shouldn't use B

Truisms aside, in many cases the absence of a thing which one would expect to see is in fact a support for alternate hypotheses. ie. "Given a world X is true, I would expect to see Y. Since I don't see Y, that's at least weak

I've found that Google's reporting severely under reports air quality (making it look better than it is). The purple air map itself seems much more reliable for tracking actual local air quality. I use purple air zoomed out combin

Every 3 hours. But also, if you have API access you can use the OpenAI playground to query GPT-4 as much as you want. Sure, you pay a cost (per token), but if you're willing to front the bill you can move pretty quickly.

Looks very cool. I am also working heavily in this space (using AI to help learning). One minor point: In your demo, you state that "Today, almost 50% of code is written by AI, so why shouldn't you learn how to code with AI?"

I have it running, slowly, on the same machine. I would love for someone to get support running for MPS backend (The GPU) but it does run on the CPU.

My initial impression is (compared to ChatGPT 3.5-turbo) - not impressed. I asked it for today's date, and it said "Monday, March 20, 2023" which is baffling to me – either it doesn't have access to "current" i

I thought this was a nice analysis of the study: https://peterattiamd.com/more-hype-than-substance-erythritol... . Since our bodies produce erythritol as part of the pentose phosphate pathway (which is activated heavily by m

Thanks for the links, this is pretty interesting stuff. Just a quick note: it's Conflict Free Replicated Data Types - not Relational.

Seems like it's only for Windows... except all the screenshots clearly show Macbooks / iMacs. I like the idea of the service, but wouldn't use it unless I can run it on Mac. Streaming for indie games would be perfection, as I

I don't really use Twitter and also prefer blogs to reading tweet threads, but one interesting advantage of the Twitter model is that it allows easy quoting/replying/liking of individual paragraphs / sentences. I'm

I've been thinking (and researching) heavily in preparation for a new (offline, desktop) app I want to build. The app has a lot of data wrangling, and probably a decent amount of ML. Python seems like the logical choice, but... I'

I've read and loved most of the fantasy you mentioned, except for saga of The forgotten warrior. This makes me an excellent target for that last recommendation, thank you!

It's worth noting that the narrator - Michael Kramer - is exceptional. One of the characters in this particular series is known for his ability with accents, so listening to the audiobook with a good narrator is an extra amount of fun.

My family and I have been supremely careful Mar 2020. I read a lot of the research and preprints and am concerned about long term system impacts of repeat infections. Despite huge numbers of precautions, we all finally caught it about ten d

I was a little surprised the article didn't mention declining sperm counts and testosterone as a possible factor. My impression was that increased exposure to toxic compounds (microplastics, estrogen mimicking compounds, etc) has been
