Seems strange to me not to mention LLaMA once in the article then. Why tiptoe around the subject?

The author seems to be entirely unaware of the current crop of open source / public language models like LLaMA and Falcon. People are already engaging in the behavior that, according to the article, might present an existential threat

A piece of tape over the cameras is probably enough to immobilize most SDVs. Works on humans too. Guarding against vandalism isn’t really the car makers job. Tires have always been easy to slash. That’s why we have laws and penalties for br

The next obvious step is to transition short haul trucks to electric, and then slowly ramp up the range. Tesla Semi is a decent proof of concept to show that fuel savings can offset the cost of the massive batteries, at least for shorter tr

It’s a terrific analogy. The alternative is to believe that a 5GB model somehow contains a database of 160 million images.

What if I look at other people's art and learn from it? Seem unfair to pass that work off as my own. All artists should be banned from looking at copyrighted images, we can't risk them incorporating copyrighted elements into their

Surely there needs to be some amount of training with both models in the loop before it can be considered a multimodal system.

Multimodal can refer to a lot of different types of models, but feeding LLM text into stable diffusion definitely doesn’t count. LLaVA is the first one that comes to my mind, it takes images and text as input and outputs text. There’s an un

Preserving the speakers voice after translation is super cool. It’s one of the things you don’t really think about, but voice inflection and identity is missing with our current translation tools. I like to watch political speeches from non

Yes it silenced the alarm for a few minutes, just long enough to make you notice when it starts back up. I’m fairly confident momentary silence is part of the aforementioned torture technique. Did you not think about the article when you re

Humans hate repetitive sounds so much it's sometimes used as a form of torture. The purpose of an alarm is to alert someone. Maintenance had been scheduled, and after that point the beeping served no purpose. The primary fault lies wit

I prefer it to most sites, it leaves more room for text. HN feels much more information dense than similar websites like reddit.

FSD uses both maps and vision to detect stop signs. This can happen when the stop sign is both obscured by a curve and not present in the map. Would be interesting to know how old the intersection is. I'm guessing the stop sign was add

It could be a psyop, but it's far from absurd. Tensions between Yevgeny Prigozhin and Putin have been high. Most notable were the public threats from Wagner to pull out of Bakhmut due to lack of supplies. If anyone has the potential to

What concepts exactly can’t be verbalized? All of our serialized file formats fall under the umbrella of “words”. GPT4 can draw images by outputting SVGs for example.

I got one of these yesterday, I have a warrantee replacement item coming in the mail for which I had to verbally dictate my address. Seriously made me think twice, they couldn’t have timed it better. Their domain name is sketchy AF though.

The end goal isn’t a system that knows everything. I’d argue a system that can learn from context but has very little knowledge about the world would be much more interesting than our current LLMs. GPTs have a small spark of higher level re

Its a “restaurant is so busy no ones goes there anymore” scenario. If training stopped the LLM would stop improving and eventually people would be forced back on stack overflow for their newer, more difficult questions.

"We release Gorilla, a finetuned LLaMA-based model that surpasses the performance of GPT-4 on writing API calls" Sounds like it's another LLaMA variant specifically fine tuned for API calls.

I’ve never seen Reddit the company as valuable. People are valuable, and they just happen to gather on Reddit. If Reddit goes away they will gather somewhere else.

It’s honestly better for subreddit discovery than anything reddit has made in the last 5 years. Off topic, but giant lists of things are seriously underrated. I’d speculate that a large majority of the sites with a “Recommended for you” sec

The alternative would be unworkable. Turning a subreddit public without mods just creates a new 4chan. Reddit it’s highly dependent on the free labor provided by the mods.
