I was curious to see how the MEPs voted, you can check it here. https://howtheyvote.eu/votes/195338 For once I'm pleasantly surprised that everyone I voted for was against.

Yeah, if the benchmark is actually predictive of the tasks you have then it is trivial to conclude that the cheapest-per-benchmark-task model will be the cheapest one for your tasks…

Not even an average task. I can have a single task that I need to do and I could be choosing which model to use. The cheapest-per-benchmark-task model would be useless to me if it cannot do the task I need.

Cost per token doesn't say a lot, but "Cost per benchmark task" is also meaningless if your task is difficult enough that the cheaper model has no chance of cracking it.

Oh, I'm not the author! This was actually made by St. Jude's hospital. I've seen it mentioned by one of their people in a recent whoishiring thread and found it neat.

So how did this happen? Is https://software.annas-archive.gl/AnnaArchivist a legitimate staff account? Is this a scam? Or did they lose the domain to scammers and never update the link in the bounty?

I feel like 'slop' increasingly means two separate concepts and it tires me a bit. A) AI produced output that is low quality in some jarring aspects B) Any AI output whatsoever regardless of quality

Why? What is so costly about running a journal?

by yreg 4mo ago
Works pretty well for Wikimedia which has gotten incredibly rich while providing an essential service for the internet public. (Off the back of volunteers, of course.)

What I dont understand is why cant we get free open journals with high curation standards that would eventually get to the reputation level of Nature. Hosting pdfs + paying out reviewers could be covered by donations.

by yreg 4mo ago
You are saying it as if those costs were not necessary to provide the service.

The mutual interest of me + 'my boss' might very well outweight my fraction of the collective interest. It certainly depends. Also, if you are in ESOP that might change the equation as well.

What's stopping you? I have spekl check disabled on all my devices. And I'm not even a native speaker, so I would certainly benefit, but like you I hate when it complains (or autocorrects!) intentional strings.
