Hey antirez, What sticks out to me is Gemini catching bugs before production release, was hoping you’d give a little more insight into that. Reason being is that we expect ai to create bugs and we catch them, but if Gemini is spotting bugs

hmm after some research I'm inclined to believe that 1) oatly is the best tasting product on the market, 2) it's the distribution channels that was the success, not the marketing copy, and 3) spending massive amounts of capital in

I wish someone did an analysis of their marketing. I really hope it was a huge flop because it’s just awful. I despise their horrible advertising and marketing copy in general and I sometimes just have to tell myself, “it’s just oat milk no

I think the author is encouraging out of the box thinking. The framing of "inevitable" is a box (an assumption) that we can include in our analysis or judgment, rather than assume it to be true. But to your point, his debate analo

It’s not quite about following your interest. It’s learning how to take an interest in your interests, IMO. Basically if you pursue your interest half heartedly or without the rigor and discipline that you would under pressure of work, you

It’s not wisdom, it’s research. It’s kind of obvious that new eras will produce faster scaling. But what if you ran the numbers and it wasn’t true? There are plenty of times when this happens, the obvious is actually something different. Th

but that’s precisely the point and it does give insight. Google scaled off of existing infrastructure like computers. Computers scale off of existing infrastructure like electricity. The point is to compare current era of scaling to the pre

Not saying that it’s not true but hardware and software have different trajectories.

While writing, you edit your writing towards both sounding good and having solid ideas. That's the entire essay's point and I largely agree with it. Its why I think current LLMs are bad writers, not because their prose or ideas ar

My thought as well. How well does it translate into arc agi? If it does well then we have a general purpose super intelligence… so maybe agi?

I think you mean the general class of algorithms that scale with compute times, RL being the chief example. But yes I agree to that point.

I worked in a recruitment company in SEA for software devs and management/exec layers. Just sharing my perspective, Taiwan's Software Devs were paid 1/3 of what devs in SG or HK are paid, the biggest reason being there aren&#

I noticed this in Taiwan between 2018-2020 when I was staying there. A highly educated population but with little to no opportunities. Most of very ambitious talent found jobs in China or Singapore. A strong business environment, or strong

Is this ability really a prerequisite to AGI and ASI? Reasoning, problem solving, research validation - at the fundamental outset it is all refinement thinking. Research is one of those areas where I remain skeptical it is that important be

Why is HN not creating policy against moral prigotry? There is no useful discussion here anymore. Seriously begging the mods to take a closer look, or at least PG to not abandon his curated internet space.

To go from partially automated to fully automated is thousands of non trivial edge cases and unforeseen decision points that must be tamed. To say this is trivial is like saying the one shot ai prompted twitter clone is the same thing as tw

I have looked a bit into Anthropic CEOs writings but if you can point in the right direction would be helpful!

Exactly, albeit it may need the reasoning later to form the proper foundational logic in the weights.

Yes, but I meant it slightly differently than the distills. The idea is to create the next gen SOTA non reasoning model with synthetic reasoning training data.

Not OC but yes that’s what profit sharing is. You see it in businesses where investment back into the business doesn’t yield much, like sales or recruitment companies, so better to redistribute the profits back to the shareholders, the empl

The more Hacker News worthy discussion is the part where the author talks about search through the possible mini-program space of LLMs. It makes sense because tree search can be endlessly optimized. In a sense, LLMs turn the unstructured, o

Respectfully, I paid for my health insurance so I probably overpaid for the breast pump, all things considering. Game theory wise, I’m forced to pay money to then be given the “choice” between spending 50$ or spending 0$ for the exact same

The article makes a claim that it is in the insurance companies best interest to make the overall cost of healthcare to go up so they can get a bigger profit. While I somewhat agree with that claim, I suspect that there are many systemic po
