I fully believe LLM’s and vector DB’s etc will be largely commodotized - in my opinion this is inevitable, and this is another step in the right direction.

It's pretty well established that folks pay to get featured on that list. Forbes is not exactly a reputable organization; it's the clickbait of finance. Take one look at their website and this will be quite apparent.

Code Interpreter is great for "quick and dirty" data analysis & visualizations. I've seen it struggle with larger datasets (not sure what the current limit is) but I can certainly see this sort of stuff replacing basic BI

Again, for those complaining about price - the current (and far less capable) Microsoft HoloLens is also $3500. I've personally used and interacted with the HoloLens and was thoroughly impressed, however the leaps in optics & track

From my understanding most other manufacturers either have slim margins, or are losing money on every EV sold. I sometimes worry that Tesla will dominate the EV market, as it's extremely difficult to compete at the current price point

I’ll go out on a limb and say it will be far more popular than people think. I’m ready to preorder one (although perhaps I fall into the enthusiast & early adopter category). This can’t be compared to other headsets out there, and is ra

A big problem with healthcare is it tends to be reactive rather than proactive; folks generally tend to seek out care only when they’re having issues.

I bought one of these and love it - it’s the best vehicle I have ever owned. The supercharger network eliminates any range anxiety or dealing with slow or barely functional chargers. Yes, the spartan interior leaves a bit to be desired, but

I’ve worked at the intersection of AI & healthcare for years and this has been an excellent tool I’ve leveraged in the past; synthetic data is particularly helpful in the context of healthcare!

I’m quite fond of the EV1 - in some ways, it was the predecessor to the Chevy Volt (which also was unfortunately discontinued). The Volt powertrain wouldn’t have been possible without GM’s innovation, which also inspired many other manufact

Agreed. I never have issues predictably charging my Tesla on long trips. Range anxiety is non-existent. The supercharger network is glorious. When I tried to charge my previous EV (a non-Tesla) at public chargers, half they time they didn’t

No - absolutely not. Slowing down innovation in the face with vague “existential risk” fearmongering is absurd. We should be pursuing the opposite, and accelerating efforts to build what will be some of the most transformative technology hu

Some of the most interesting work in this space is in the “shared” memory models (in most cases today, vector db’s). Agents can theoretically “learn” and share memories with the entire fleet, and develop a collective understanding & mem

The arguments for decelerating AI development invoke fear-mongering and cite “existential risk”, which is a fallacy. We’re talking about LLMs, not AGI here (which is quite a ways out, realistically). If anything - we should be accelerating

Parafilm is permeable to gases, and generally you don’t want to enable oxidization with most foods. A modified, coated version of it would be a great consumer alternative however.
