Alternatively:

1. Quickly reduce costs by increasing model and computation efficiency.

2. Massively reduce prices while still maintaining some gross margin.

3. Massively increase market size and take the vast majority of market share.

4. End up with a higher gross profit due to a much larger market size despite decreasing prices and gross margins.

5. Profit.
Around 2000, I saw regular X11 crashes. By 2005 or sp they were gone. I can't say I miss them. One of the reasons for still living with X is the software stability. Happy to hear that's one thing less to care for.
The more common interpretation is not that the courts could intervene (they clearly can’t unilaterally, and standing would be a problem for anyone trying to seek to have them intervene, though maybe a creditor denied payment would have it), but that the executive could take any action that would be legal without the debt ceiling to continue paying the debt, and that, even should any entity with standing challenge this in the courts (Congress, as a whole, may be the only body that would even have standing), that provision would be a reason that they would fail on the merits.
I am likewise baffled by this. I completely understand the concern about the salinity of the return liquid but that seems an obviously solvable problem. And it is a problem that so obviously needs to be solved that it’s the first objection that is always raised when discussing desalination, so it hardly goes overlooked.

Capturing “every drop” of run off is likewise environmentally damaging to all kinds of watershed ecosystems if done in a blunt thoughtless manner.

The audacity of such governments to stifle research & innovation is just atrocious, can you imagine how censored & sterile the global communication networks would have been if it were up to the governments in the 90s to decide what can & cannot be used.....
This is all fine and good, but here is a more important question: Why should this system exist at all? Why doesn't the government provide banking services with unlimited insurance?

They wouldn't need to lend it out or anything to make a profit. They could literally just hold the cash for you until you need it. Since there would be no risk, it could be free and guaranteed. Let you get the money at the post office, which has branches everywhere, if you don't want to do it online.

Why do we rely on private banks to hold our cash money with a need to make a profit off of it, and therefore have to do risky things like loan it out?

Private banks could still exist in this system. They would loan out the government's money instead of their depositor's money. Their profits would come from the interest, and if they make bad loans they would get the collateral and have to sell it and maybe lose money. Heck they could even get a fee for bringing in new cash to the government holding system and dispensing cash to people who need money.

Functionally the system would work exactly the same to the consumer, the bank would still make their profits, but people wouldn't be at risk of losing their balance if the bank goes under. They just move their balance to a new bank.
Exactly, there is so much money to be made by generating porn that it’ll be done by this year.
Does anyone know if there's a way to use this technology to help understand a large codebase? I want a way to ask questions about how a big unfamiliar codebase works. It seems like ChatGPT isn't trained on open source code, so it can't answer questions there. When I asked it how something works in the Krita source, it just hallucinated some gibberish. But if there's a way to train this AI on a specific codebase, maybe it could be really useful. Or is that not possible with this type of AI?

Lack of redeemability, lack of transparency, and a history of fraud.

Banks contractually guarantee the right to redeem deposits for cash. Redemption of tether for USD seems to be subject to the discretion of its operators.

Banks are fairly transparent about their assets to the public, and completely trasparent to their auditors and regulators. Tether is an unaudited, unregulated black box.

IMO, tether is no longer a fraud, but it definitely was for a while when they were claiming 100% cash reserves but actually running with fractional reserves. Banks don't lie about their reserves.
OpenAI wins by innovating faster than everyone because a lot of these models inner workings are known and can be trained to meet ChatGPTs metrics. so all they have to do is hire the best and move faster, as long as they have on par or better, people won’t be switching

You weight it against other pros and cons. Even US billionairs do not store their savings in USD cash, and don't seem to mind "conversions all the time".
Other way around. That New York Times infographic is just pernicious misinformation. Almonds are grown and sold internationally at a profit. It is an expensive crop that requires a unique climate. Cows take 10x the water per pound, sell for less, can be raised anywhere and rely on government subsidies. Alternatives to alfalfa will still take more water per pound of beef than a pound of almonds.
The issue they have is primarily due to SDR functionality similar to HackRF, oppressive governments do not want their citizens to have unfettered internet access using satellite internet or be able to exploit weakly secured or conversely use highly secure communications
Not sure what you mean by “individual units” but the suggestion is that it costs more than they charge. i.e it’s not profitable, and the more they sell the more they lose.
Both work. I have an SQLite db where i save "rooms", "sessions" and "messages". So multiple users can contribute in the same chat session, where i pass the whole conversation history to the AI as context. Then there are commands to switch and delete sessions. When the bot is mentioned in a message, it gets the answer from the API in a different thread and shows a writing indicator.
It also plays super nice with the Element Matrix client which supports tables and codeblocks. The openai API sends back markdown which i can parse into html and send like that.
I want to clean up my code a bit and then open source the bot.

One day, that person witnesses a robbery. They try and take a photo of the robber, but the algorithm determines it was you on the photo and fixes it up to apply your face. Congratulations, you are now a robber.

While i've yet to be put through one of those interviews, I would imagine that I'm applying to some of these places. I've been applying to mostly smaller companies, so it's hard to know what kind of interviews they do in a lot of cases. This being said, I do brush up on time complexity/data structures/algorithms/bitshifting etc. before I go to an interview.
And if they grow large enough, they typically start providing welfare to the population, to pacify normal citizens. They even police their bad actors, see the cartel giving up their own in the recent murders of American tourists.
From a reliability perspective, 28nm planar transistors are more durable than the FINFETs of later generations.

I find it useful to run pdb when my program throws an exception. You can run your program with `python -m pdb -cc file.py args`, and it will leave you in a prompt when there's an exception or a breakpoint (eg the `breakpoint` statement). From there, you can evaluate expressions using local variables.
This is too polite... They're trying very hard not to offend each other. Don't base your opinion on the topic from this conversation, I think it's better to hear what each of them have to say "behind their backs".
It “knows” the AWS API, CloudFormation and from what others have told me the CDK pretty well. I’ve asked it to write plenty of 20-30 line utility scripts and with the proper prompts, it gets me 95% of the way there.

I assume it would “understand” more popular open source frameworks.

That's the Science Channel now, also owned by WBD.
The biggest problem with ChatGPT (and alternatives) is the risk of being coopted for generating the content someone gets in trouble for. Someone very important will get in BIG BIG trouble and try to blame OpenAI for it... and the series of lawsuits that will follow will kill them.

While other such models will be impacted, hopefully, there will be significant variations in alternatives so that we don't lose this technology over giant corporations trying to get out of their trouble by suing their service providers.

There will also be companies that will use modified versions of open source alternatives... to make them much more conservative and cautious, so that they don't get in trouble. There will be these variations that will be shared by certain industries.

So, while the generative AI is here to stay, there will be a LOT of variations... and ChatGPT will have to change a lot if they want to stay alive and relevant over time.
Nearly every forum is like that. It may even be related to Dunning Kruger, in that people who overestimate their knowledge are obviously going to feel knowledgeable on more things.

That said, Reddit is probably the worst place for it. I rarely read comments anymore there because of how 'dumb' they are. Worse, I feel like Reddit is like some self trained botnet at times. Go on any post, say 'blood is thicker than water', and without fail someone is going to tell you the original is 'blood of covenant is thicker than water of the womb.' This is of course incorrect, and the only place I've ever seen it is...Reddit. So people posting ridiculous things learning from people posting ridiculous things.

It happens here though, too, with the main difference being someone will usually correct you, and not be downvoted for doing so...
He did introduce it. Rubber was not traded or even heard of in the Congo until the Belgians arrived.

> Pygmies are still eaten in the congo today.

LOl! There are no Pymies in Congo. Pygmies are from the CONGO BASIN, not CONGO. But I wouldn't expect someone who still believes in old proganda stories from the 1800s to know anything about the continents geography. Do you have any proof of pygmy cannibalism?
1. They have

2. CPUs and GPUs typically disagree on whether they want high bandwidth or low latency, apple managed to keep both happy but it's very hard to do on a PC where the RAM,CPU, and GPU are quite far apart and also nowhere near as homogenous as Apple have them.
Bullshit. I saw what happened 12 years ago and I can see what is happening now. No one is blowing anything out of proportion and least of all if they are they are not the reason I am nervous about my near and medium term situation. Many others here are the same.

The 16th largest US bank disappearing in 24 hours is not a molehill, particularly when it is the one that is the source of the check you depend on in existing in 6 days. Hope is not a strategy.

I would add one exception - religion. Having the big pay day come after death means that the fraud can never be uncovered.
>Why doesn't the government provide banking services with unlimited insurance?

Or atleast increase coverage at regular intervals. Thanks to inflation, the amount of real value that is FDIC insured halves every so many years.
Yeah, but with the difference in price you'd have to need to replace your SSD monthly for DRAM to come out cheaper and I highly doubt you'd be writing data that fast.
Devices that transmit on RF have been regulated since the early 20th century. Including early radio-based communications networks. This is nothing new.

In this case you can feed it bits of code you're interested in and ask it to explain, the API has a limit of 4096 tokens (which is a good chunk of text).

I actually built a slack bot for work and daily ask it to refactor code or "write jsdocs for this function"
> "Being cheap allows them to capture the market faster."

I think it's worth remarking that this is IMO a smarter way of using price to capture market than what we've seen in the post decade (see: Uber, DoorDash) - in OpenAI's case there's every reasonable expectation that they can drop their operating costs well below the low prices they're offering, so if they are running in the red the expectation of temporariness is reasonable.

What was unreasonable about the past tech cycle is that a lot of the expectations of cost reduction a) never panned out, and b) if subjected to even slight scrutiny would never have reasonably panned out.

OpenAI has direct line-of-sight to getting these models dramatically cheaper to run than now, and that's a huge benefit.

That said I remain a bit skeptical about the market overall here - I think the tech here is legitimately groundbreaking, but there are a few forces working against this as a profitable product:

- Open source models and weights are catching up very rapidly. If the secret sauce is sheer scale, this will be replicated quickly (and IMO is happening). Do users need ChatGPT or do they need any decently-sized LLM?

- Productization seems like it will largely benefit incumbent large players (see: Microsoft, Google) who can afford to tank the operating costs and additional R&D required on top to productize. Those players are also most able to train their own LLMs and operate them directly, removing the need for a third party provider.

It seems likely to me that this will break in three directions (and likely a mixture of them):

- Big players train their own LLMs and operate them directly on their own hardware, and do not do business with OpenAI at any significant volume.

- Small players lean towards undifferentiated LLMs that are open source and run on standard cloud configurations.

- Small players lean towards proprietary, but non-OpenAI LLMs. There's no particular reason why GCP and AWS cannot offer a similar product and undercut OpenAI.
> The reality is probably more electronic

I've done investigations with law enforcement before, and you're right, it is more electronic, but basically it's the same as what you see in the movies just on a screen (so it's searchable). But the software basically has you build clusters of people with evidentiary links.

But it was developed to mimic the old bulletin boards, which looked like what you see in the movies. And also the software is really expensive, so "hobbyist" investigators still do use the bulletin boards and yarn, because the electronic version is too pricy.
Most any image filtering will soften faces even if that's not the point (either by accidentally removing noise or because image stacking doesn't work if there's noise.) If you want it to look "natural" you actually have to make an effort to add the noise back later.

Highly doubtful. It's a "citizens commission" which means a bunch of people decide whose reports to republish. Nothing even attempting to be truthful or bipartisan.

The reports switch between describing attempted murder - trucks accelerating at pedestrians, etc - and crazy harassment like asking an asian man to do "a dragon dance" and then beating him with "blunt objects" when he refused, which didn't do any damage such that the police refused his report.

> "The pastor recalled convoy supporters, some of whom routinely urinated on his church, even taking issue with a sign indicating the church was broadcasting its masses online due to provincial public health restrictions: “One of them pointed a fist towards me shouting ‘you should obey God instead of F-ing Trudeau’.”"

Pointed a fist(?) and yelled a rude message about a politician. Oh, the harm! No photos of the urinators though - which supposedly kept happening.

The only likely crime (likely a crime and likely happened) I spotted in their report was someone pushing a photographer's camera away. Annoying, and criminal, but totally unpunished at all rallies and protests. The police literally don't react to anything less than theft of a camera or punching the photographer.
I’m surprised the author didn’t include a chart like this: https://twitter.com/alistairmbarr/status/1634275645235793920. It shows how bad the SVB situation really is. It’s been very quiet since 2008 and its aftermath. Until now.
Yes but kow we know that is pollution, in 1800 they didn’t know that was pollution, that is why I said that the painters captured “the change” (and without know it, the actual air pollution)
Yeah but life is not an optimization problem, and you can't take that extra million with you when you die, so spend it how you want to, not how some algorithm tells you you should. (until ML algorithms take over the world and we're forced to slave away in the code mines for Roko's basilisk, anyway)

If ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion are fun and exciting to you, and you see their potential rather than get mired in their downsides, the least you could do for yourself is to move to product manage projects in that sphere, even without a PhD in the area.
would you consider OpenAI (in its current iteration) to be conservative?
One of the advantages of old-school websites like these is that they were desktop-first, so they actually made use of the width that a laptop screen offers. It's nice to see multiple columns of content, rather than the usual mess of ad sidebars and "readers also liked" blocks interrupting the content.
Public banks should also be needed for a cashless society. How can you expect people to be deprived of cash if they have to rely to a private corporation to simply survive? Give a state issued and guaranteed bank account to every citizen

Both want businesses to thrive, but Republicans want all obstacles removed from business growth, and tend to ignore paths of sustainable growth. Republicans also push for lower taxes, which makes sense if one is wealthy and doesn't need to rely on an external support system.

The odd part comes from the package-deal associated with Republicans: right-wing extremists. Democrats have been okay keeping extreme left-wing out of most policies, but Republicans seem to be increasing acceptance.
> and still have coherent inference results.

With language being as expressive as it is, I'm not sure why people consider highly subjective measure of "coherence" to be a selling point? You can generate random text and get semi-coherent sentences a surprising amount of the time.

Why not accuracy?
Valid point. I went from using Palemoon to using FF right about when I switched computers, so nothing much changed, except I could play 1440p videos without stutter and could actually load some major websites. No role for VSCode because I use Emacs :).
> What’s the catch?

The catch is its a tactic to discourage investment in competing technologies, enabling OpenAI to build their lead to the point it is insurmountable.

> How do they plan to make money out of it?

Altman’s publicly-stated plan for making money from OpenAI is (I’m completely serious) [0]:

(1) Develop Artificial General Intelligence under the control of OpenAI.

(2) Direct the AGI to find a way to make a return for investors.
