I already started using it for medical applications. My friend had allergic reaction to Monster Energy drink today, and while I could find a lot of documents in Google, ChatGPT explained what I need to know, what medicine she has to buy (an

,, The most recent iteration of the GPT LLM (GPT3) achieved 46% accuracy with zero prompting12, which marginally improved to 50% with further model training. Previous models, merely months prior, performed at 36.7%13. In this present study,

Another paper with no open source implementation :( I loved it that it’s possible (just like the min cost flow improvements), but it’s just too long for me to understand and implement it.

So far all interviews with him were buzzwords, except the last one about OpenAI and especially ChatGPT. It's clear that it's something he's excited about into putting in all Microsoft software.

In the article it's Jeff Dean.

It's funny that in another thread I was just talking about Jeff Dean or Dennis Hassabis being a much better Google CEO than Sundar. He shouldn't ,,present a solution''. He should take over incompetent leadership.

Can you give a link to the discussion? It would be quite relevant here.

Haha totally agree :) I guess in this case what matters is the estimated lenght of the product lifecycle. I'm right now writing open source library in ts hoping that a ui will pick it up. I may need to write the UI myself at the end, b

I'm seeing the terrible practice of people writing code bases where a lot of logic depends on the ui framework. I guess your case is something like this as well, that's why it's so hard to test.

It is cannibalizing their existing offerings. I am already using ChatGPT instead of Google for some things. And it's not the Kodak days, Googlers fully understand that they need to disrupt themselves. And to tell you the truth many eng

We can argue whether Deep Mind is part of Google or not (I think for many years it was officially a seperated entity inside Google, and recently moved out to be under Alphabet), but basically you agree with me :) Google is still one of the

I wouldn't write them down so easily. Even though they are not providing machine learning models, Google is still the biggest provider of high quality AI research papers in the world. As AI models are improving, at some point they will

Regulators (specifically Gary Gansler at SEC) job is to protect consumers generally, pointing at VCs just shows that they are not doing their job. FTX is an offshore company, but Genesis, Blockfi, FTX US, Gemini, Coinbase are not, and regul

I agree that he really dropped the ball (I moved to nostr because of him not allowing links to nostr). I think it was because he lost tens of billions of dollars because of the amount of leverage he had, the market downturn, and advertisers

Demis is a super hard negotiator who was the only person able to get bought while keeping full control. I think he's more than capable of doing business. Jeff Dean may not care that much about business, as he spent all his life on scal

nostr is missing from the list. While Mastodon is much more well known, programming clients / servers based on nostr protocol is a lot of fun. I see people having different crazy ideas being implemented in a day, it's an addictive

Elon Musk is strongly outspoken, and has strong vision, communicates the vision, although it can change in a day. But at least everybody in the company (or rather everybody on Twitter) knows the plan to execute on. When Sundar speaks he spe

I tried Google APIs as well, and also gave up at authentication, even though I just wanted something super simple and small (push messages to mobile phone). Nowdays I'm just using nostr for storing simple data, as it's super simpl

For me the two big changes were when Larry took over from Eric and when Amit was fired for harassment. Larry may have been good or bad leader, but he was just super serious and boring. Eric was amazing at trying to make us think in grand vi

The usual setup is that an extremely corrupt goverment leader takes out a loan that gives enough money for him to be reelected and put a bit away for himself. In return he increases income taxes, devalues the money and sets up the country f

China is of course the best in copying the west, but I don't know much details. Alex Gladstein is writing a new book about this huge problem, as the latest good books about it he found were in the 70s.

What about recording and replaying traffic to the servers? It's not a magical solution, but it should catch regressions.
