   Yeah, it's an awful use of LLM IMO... It's basically a summarization of Google search first page. The results lack depth.

   I don't think this is a good idea. A good model if we are really aiming at anything that resembles AGI (or even a good LLM like GPT4) is a model that have world knowledge. The world is not just English.

   Microsoft already had competitive models, especially Megatron-Turing. They were even using on Bing Chat before... I'm pretty sure they still use their model on Bing Chat today (Balanced mode). It was a competitive model for the time, i

   I believe one of the problems that OSS models need to solve, is... dataset. All of them lack a good and large dataset. And this is most noticiable if you ask anything that is not in English-American-ish.

   No. Microsoft have access to OpenAI models, they don't use OpenAI APIs etc.

    Fun fact, Meta (FB) actually had a tech to "emulate" iOS apps. Facebook and Instagram for Windows/WP once upon a time was an iOS emulated app.

    You asked on ChatGPT 3.5. Yes, Bard (PaLM) is better. Now compare with GPT4 ;)

    Have you tried Sydney at the time? I don't believe that's the case. It's just the style of answers and conversation that is radically different. If you see GPT4 paper, you can see that the change was likely made because of RL

    Yes! Anyone who used Bing prior to Microsoft "censoring" know how powerful GPT4 is... Just search "Bing Sydney" and be surprised... (I fully believe Bing was launched prior to GPT4 RLHF)

    Google and Amazon are major Anthropic investors. Amazon is even going to use Claude in the next few months on Alexa. Someone can please explain how realistic is to think that Google, Amazon and Microsoft will fund/partner the same futu

    Only if GPT-2. GPT-3 is smarter than this, let alone 4.

    Claude 2 is IMO, safer and in a bad way. They did "Constitutional AI". And made Claude 2 Safer but dumber than Claude 1 sadly. Which is why on the Arena leaderboard, Claude 1 is still score more than Claude 2...

    Yes, you are right. Actually, not even Sam Altman is showing on Microsoft corporate directory per the Verge. But I heard it usually take 5~ days to show there anyway.

    They are exactly hiring everyone from OpenAI. The thing is, they still need the deal with OpenAI because currently OpenAI still have the best LLM model out there in short term.

    If you are from a very small country, maybe... But there's a lot of mid-sized or other big countries who just have the power and don't do any of these regulations. Brazil basically cloned GDPR and it worked (LGPD). For example, lo

    I'm not sure it would follow. as part of the act is to allow other apps to request interop in these services like iMessage or WhatsApp. But I guess it was worth to try this instead of directly opening iMessage for interop, for business

    Years ago iMessage was not E2EE and it was already blue...

    I've tried, and honestly, on my low end hardware, only Arch seems to be the smoothest. I'm running EndeavourOS, which is working amazing smooth here. Fedora always freezes for minutes when the RAM is full. I'm thinking maybe

    I believe the main reason it's because of A/B partitions for updates. The main advantage for common folks it's all about seamless upgrades.
