Companies spending money to navigate tariff regimes adds tremendous cost and inefficiency that makes everyone worse off.

This is extremely refreshing. I think that it would be possible to make something like this in the US for under $15K even. Cars and trucks are so over-engineered and come with tons of low value options intended to drive up the price. For a

They do this because people like to have predictability. A new model may behave quite differently on something that’s important for a use case. Also, there are a lot of cases where very small models are just fine and others where they are n

I get that EO 9066 wasn’t directly tied to the Alien Enemies Act, but the internment itself still relied on wartime powers and ended up targeting Japanese Americans unjustly. Do you think the legal specifics change how we view the regret ov

Not trying to ignore your point. Generally the "right wing" view of crime is that it is solved by increasing coercive (authoritarian?) measures such as policing and punishment, with the implicit (sometimes explicit, as below) ide

The previous time the alien enemies act was exercised (putting Japanese Americans in camps during WW2) is widely viewed as having been highly inappropriate and regrettable act. Ronald Reagan officially apologized and paid $20K to the famil

FWIW I think a multimodal model could be trained to do extremely well with it given sufficient training data. A combination of textual description of the system and/or diagram, source code (mermaid, SVG, etc.) for the diagram, and the

It's hard to take a company seriously whose founder goes all in for Trump. It's humiliating.

Perhaps Grok-3 used the reasoning methodology from DeepSeek more than the underlying model, but the similarity of Grok-3 results to DeepSeek suggests that XAI used more than that.

1) Grok-2 was akin to GPT-3.5 2) Grok-3 comes out a month after DeepSeek R1 was open sourced. I think Grok-3 is DeepSeek R1 with some added params and about a month of training on the giant cluster, possibly a bit of in-house secret sauce a

DeepSeek R1 is by far the best at writing prose of any model, including Grok-3, GPT-4o, o1-pro, o3, claude, etc. Paste in a snippet from a book and ask the model to continue the story in the style of the snippet. It's surprising how b
