That could be. Just use pre-training for language understanding and let the post-training on synthetic data do the heavy lifting.

Compared to other forms forms of liquid milk indeed, but it has a rather short shelf life compared to most sterile food. (Imagine if canned meat or fish had the same shelf life than UHT milk…)

Funnily enough, the title made me think about the PhD of a friend, and it turns out it's actually his lab that is featured here, and his name is even mentioned. What a star!

It can, that's the reason why UHT milk has a relatively short shelf lifespan and degrades despite being devoid of living microorganisms. The enzymes keep doing their work long after the cell membrane is gone.

This is very cool. I have been lamenting for a while that the memory-bandwidth <-> tps relationship was pretty much working for small models on consumer cards, but not at all on datacenter hardware. It's great to see that with

For the past year and a half, the US administration have plunged the country in a rule of law twilight zone: the rule of law still exists, and there are still independent jurisdictions to enforce it, but the administration decided they didn

AI ain't magical, you can vibe code a plausible project in a week-end, but having something that actually works still requires lots of work, in the form of testing and iterating on the result in order to get a working piece of softwa

Very cool in theory. Unfortunately it's just 12klocs of a vibe-coded week-end project. Edit: it's actually 50klocs since the pyOpenVBA dependency is from the same author and has been made the week-end before.

The world lives on Excel macros. The amount of “shadow it” where the business logic allowing big businesses to run is encoded is unfathomable.
