The UK gov is probably talking about using embeddings to respond to FOI requests. 1000000 documents -> 1000000000 embeddings Citizen question -> GPT normalised question -> 'embeddings match 'embeddings <-> embeddi

Also effective object recognition & OCR. I got asked about onboarding someone to a fund online and it occurred to me to check out current services before responding - 20 seconds with google document AI made it clear to me that things ha

As ever the truth is in the middle. - LLM's provide functionality that was very difficult to implement until 2 years ago. - We can decode natural language statements relatively well and relatively easily. - We have an approximate com

The standard reading is : "hardware wins". But there is a second part. "The second general point to be learned from the bitter lesson is that the actual contents of minds are tremendously, irredeemably complex; we should stop

Well, if the Judge agrees with this there goes the rule of law in the USA. Their thesis is that it's illegal to investigate criminal behaviour. That seems like a very bad sort of thing to accept to me.

I think you're right - this reminds me of security by obscurity; it's not safe unless it's totally safe.

Yup good points. I now rememeber "dorchester" and "chobham" armours. I must say that I too am at a loss to imagine how they are fabricated into solid hulls!

I, for one, am glad that a nuclear waste dump on the moon didn't detonate and drive it out of orbit. I don't think Space 1999 ever spared a thought about what happened to the Earth after the disaster.

A big consideration is grid structure, it's very expensive to create power distribution from generators into the infrastructure. There already exists grid infrastructure at old reactor sites, so I think it's very likely that they

I am thinking that this technology will apply nicely to tank armour? The UK has lost it's capability to make tanks from scratch, maybe this approach could be used to substitute in some way?

Revolving restaurants! It's a fantastic place to eat, the sad thing has been that BT just couldn't exploit the value of it in terms of corporate entertainment. I think it'll be lovely for people to be able to have a meal up t

>What I don’t like is the trend towards the way to do that being to open up network listeners with no authentication on them. Yeah - but don't do that. The thing about small models that can run on commodity hardware is that it break

Because running it locally really means running it on a cloud server that you own and is called by other server that you own. This gives you the ability to make the interfaces lightweight and most importantly to not pay premiums to model se

This surprises me, I have seen ground penetrating radar results that have shown buried items which have then been dug up, why is this result different?

Oh sure - there's a lot of racism in this position. It was advocated by the Nazi's in the 1930's for a start.

From my observations the current rightwing meme is that women in rich countries haven't had sufficient numbers of children and measures to drive increased population should be put in place. This is congruent with removing women's

I've led a team building an LLM agent for customer service. Our finding is that it's between 50% and 10% of the operational cost of a human for a case. This costing is based on the range of costs for offshore vs. nearshore workers

I think that you have to trust your collaborators, but that trust is being given far too easily at the moment because there is no consequence of it being betrayed. In the old days a single dodgy paper meant ostracism. Literally - no meeting

I have tried reading the paper but it's a bit hard on my little rabbit brain. However, my take is that they have constructed a model of how a machine might be made to develop some understanding and then have made an LLM exhibit a behav
