Do these devices have the effect of cooling the air? The energy has to come from somewhere… If so, that would potentially serve two purposes for the price of one: cooling and power generation. Or, is the side effect to make the air less moi

In high school, my friend used his dad’s drill press to drill a hole in cheap 720KB floppies to make the computer recognize them as 1.44MB instead. The disks worked perfectly at the higher density, making you wonder whether these were ident

Ilya Sutskever has hinted in various interviews over the past few months that LLMs are surprisingly good at improving other LLMs, such that he’s not sure humans are needed anymore for refinement. That’s the matchstick that lights the fire.

Not to mention there is no indication of typical statistical metrics that might help one assess the quality of the sample.

Or use it to retrieve alleged facts from its own output, pass those alleged facts to another tool (like a legal search engine) for verification, and then get GPT to edit its output accordingly…

Only client sockets are available. So what you can do is build a worker that receives HTTP requests and then uses TCP sockets to fetch data from wherever, returning it over HTTP somehow.

While I understand the perspective on their legal actions, Sonos's commitment to their product and their continued development of the multi-room audio space deserves some credit. Yes, they have had a number of high-profile lawsuits, bu

I am rooting for Sonos. They paved the way for Wi-Fi speakers years ago and built some fantastic products. Their UX can be poor, but they’re getting better with each release. For instance, setting up the latest subwoofer product, the Sub Mi

On top of what others have said here about TPUs and their kin, you can make things really scream by taping out an ASIC for a specific frozen neural network (i.e. including the weights and parameters). If you never have to change the network

And they just added TCP client sockets in Workers. We are just one step step away from being able to serve literally anything on their amazing platform (listener sockets).

If only there was an equivalent for building your own home GSM/LTE network. When around the house, I would love to connect to my own private cellular network. Not only is coverage poor where I live, but this would allow me to route cal

Indeed, the self-attention mechanism within the transformer architecture is often described as a graph, where tokens are the nodes and the key and query vectors are combined to establish the affinity that each token has for each other token

I wonder if we will one day look back and view our early AGI experiments and ask, “How could they have been so careless?”

To do a great deal of harm, GPT-X just has to have enough of a world model to be useful for automating tasks like deception and impersonation at a scale humanity has never before experienced.

Yeah for sure. I am redoing all the wiring and replacing about half the cells because they went to zero… Will be over-specifying everything and making the routing super tidy. If you have the patience for that, DIY batteries are fun!

I bought a low speed vehicle last summer that the previous owner had outfitted with a home made 24-cell LiFePO4 pack, complete with a cheap Chinese BMS and balancer unit. Within a week of purchase, his haphazardly installed balancer wires h

Probably for regulatory reasons. They will eventually release it in all the app stores, but OpenAI has a lot of lawyers and they are very cautious.

Come to think of it, having a fake management layer that endlessly has meetings and makes “decisions” could be an effective anti-phishing mechanism. Try your luck finding the 1% of my employees that are living, breathing humans with any acc

Assuming the Chinese manage to occupy Taiwan, they would no doubt want to take over TSMC’s facilities and hold them as a bargaining chip to normalize relations with the West. They’d swiftly run out of essential components such as silicon wa

Apple’s push is enough to convince me that this will be a default soon. Adoption has been slow because it takes some effort and the payoff isn’t immediately obvious. This new service from 1Password might start to change that. I expect other

Once in a while, you should swap out the PM’s personality with a new one and your robot HR manager can make the firing announcement. Come to think of it, every company could use a few AI-based middle managers for entertainment purposes.

Procrastination always boils down to one thing: the thing you procrastinate about is seen as unpleasant. Whether it’s because you think you’ll suck at it or because you don’t think the outcome matters that much, you imagine that doing the t
