It goes something like this: input text -> input tokens -> input embeddings -> model -> output embeddings -> output tokens -> output text Tokens aren't necessarily words: they can be fragments of words and you

Sorry, I meant the kind of reporting in both the US and China on these things is political posturing, not the killing of the pets.

I agree with you that there is a certain kind of fanaticism about reporting on China but... why would the zero COVID policy involve killing people's pets? In any case, in the end it's all political posturing and propaganda from al

Unfortunately async is the only straightforward way you can do cancellation so there's still a lot of scenarios where you can't just use threading easily. I'm not sure why people are disagreeing with this: how would you cance

They really aren't more than just statistical word generators because we can and do build what are exactly statistical word generators and get the behavior of ChatGPT (because that is what ChatGPT is). For what it's worth, this is

I mean, that is the fundamental architecture of the model and how it's explicitly designed: given an input embedding and output embedding, the model is trained over a massive corpus of text to optimize the probability for generatin

Doesn't the article say... exactly that? The basic concept of ChatGPT is at some level rather simple. Start from a huge sample of human-created text from the web, books, etc. Then train a neural net to generate text that’s “like th

Rosa Parks really should have just sat down in the right spot on the bus instead of shoving her politics in people's faces. There's a time and place for activism but it's definitely not the bus – I have to use it to get to wo

While I do think there is some degree of clout-seeking in how grievances often get aired, I don't think it's fair to tell people to "use the appropriate channels" -- that's just a way for issues to get ignored and f

I would think that given Rust is not really a corporate-backed project or trying to upsell you on Rust Pro, Big Rust is not making anyone pee in bottles.

Is 3D rendering and audio output really so coupled together that you can't just swap out Direct3D for Vulkan and keep using XAudio? It sounds awful if that's the design in the first place. For what it's worth, many AAA games

As fun as quoting 1984 is, there is a huge gap between that and just not making up the winner of the Super Bowl so confidently.

What happens when a high priority process RPCs to a low priority process to avoid priority inversion? Does the low priority process inherit the caller's priority for the duration of the call?

Unless you want to rebuild the entire world, including the operating system, Go will have to touch the C FFI boundary at some point.

You can do that fine too with Cgo. This looks like more a binding for the dynamic linker.

To me, the surprise here is that usually you don’t expect Python finalizers to do something like this: when they dispose something, it’s usually unobservable from the perspective of the program, e.g. an unreachable file descriptor. Here, th

On older ARM only bx is allowed to switch Thumb state, even if the address you're giving it is e.g. a Thumb address in ARM mode. You can still use pc as a GPR to jump ARM-ARM or Thumb-Thumb, though.

Then don't use GPL code? If you don't agree with the terms, don't use it.

My bad, your sarcasm translated badly in text ;-)

The ideological position is the whole point of the GPL, after all. If you're using someone else's labor, it's only fair they're allowed to dictate the terms of how you're allowed to use it.

Yes, if the nodes had their weights retrained. The resulting output vector from the model would subsequently have different values and would not be meaningful if used against a different set of weights.
