I think looking into what their selling pattern was like in 2021 makes sense. If it was similar, then yes, there's nothing to see here. Worth checking, though.

I'm guessing that if they work for a bank the FDIC special fee might also cut into bonuses.
They all know exactly what is up. It wasn't a surprise. They just didn't have many good options to choose from
>No, the type of errors are indicative of a complete lack of understanding. That is the point. They are errors that a thinker with an incomplete understanding would never make. They are so garbled that not even a true believer such as yourself can find a way to shoehorn a possible interpretation of correctness into them; such that you are forced to admit that the machine is in error. Otherwise you and the other believers find an interpretation that fits and you conclude that the machine understands; revealing you yourself do not understand what 'understanding' really is.

No. You're wrong. chatGPT only knows of text. It derives incomplete understanding of the world via text. Therefore it understands some things and it understands others. It is clear chatGPT doesn't perceive things in the same way we do and it is clear the structure of its mind is different then ours so it clearly won't understand everything in the same way you understand it.

Why are you so stuck on this stupid concept? chatGPT doesn't understand everything. We know this. Humans don't understand everything we also know this. Answering a couple stupid questions wrong whether your human or chatGPT doesn't indicate that the human or chatGPT doesn't understand everything at all.

>You haven't eliminated the possibility of autopredict, merely ceased to consider it.

What in the hell is auto predict? Neural networks by definition are suppose to generate unmapped output if this is what you mean. 99 percent of output from neural networks is by definition unique from the training data.

>There is more evidence for the sentience, self awareness, and understanding of concepts of Harry Potter than of chatGPT.

This is a bad analogy. I'm not claiming sentience. My claim is that it understands you.
GPT-4 on ChatGPT is currently only available for paying users.
Awesome. So now that this has rolled out, can you all help the Docusaurus team figure out how to migrate from MDX v1 to MDX v2, and why it's been so difficult? It's been six months of work and it's to a point where we're considering moving off a React-powered docs solution altogether so we can unblock the rest of our app from getting off React 17.
>Time is the only currency that matters.

I'm mid GenX and I wish I hadn't spent so much time working. I will never get that time back.
Thanks, I've saw this leaked chat prompt and that gave me some ideas.

So under the hoods, ChatGPT is just a model like Llama where they prepend every user input with a context that makes it behave like a chatbot?
It seems unclear to me which level of expertise will be most affected by AI becoming a defacto tool in the software development process. Most people are assuming senior/proficient devs will still be needed to spot errors, and junior ones less so...

But you could also argue AI code generation could be a great equalizer and mediocre programmers could be as effective, if not more effective than more skilled programmers since the skillset will change from the ability to write good code, to the ability to understand specs, and use the tooling.

So start learning how to use GPT in your workflow and maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised by where all of this leads!
wow, lol.... good luck :D
Watson wasn't pumping out code in response to non technical input though.
Even if AI is just "faster artist", it doesn't necessarily mean the the laws should and will treat AI and human artists in the same say.

Car is just a faster way to let you move from A to B. But laws treat cars and pedestrians vastly different.

A more extreme(but less related) example: a dog is just a mammal like a pig. But in a lot of countries, dog and cat are "special cases" and trading their meat is illegel.

Laws are extremely inconsistant.
It’s silly to think that new technologies aren’t incorporated into art in all kinds of ways. Some are positive and some are negative. I can think of a dozen different ways a writer could use ChatGPT in a way that augments their own creativity and would be indistinguishable to readers. If you think formulaic or thoughtless writing is new I’ve got news for you.
> There is Twitch Turbo, which as far as I know does not benefit creators

Twitch Turbo is supposed to benefit the creator the same way an ad would support them. Meaning it would count the ad as shown, but not show it to the viewer. Though, payment for ads are scammingly low for the creators. A sub will in most cases give more support.

> All I'm saying is that ads have gotten a lot worse lately and it is extremely noticeable.

Rumors goes, Amazon demands more money.
This post makes the assumption that capability necessarily sacrifices performance. That's not necessarily true. The most powerful ability of Visual Studio Code, and the reason that it's so massively popular, is its large and high-quality selection of plugins, along with the backing of Microsoft and the clean integration with GitHub.

There's no reason to believe that Zed wouldn't be able to have a marketplace for extensions in the same way as Visual Studio Code, and it wouldn't have the high RAM usage and latency associated with Visual Studio Code.

Additionally, Zed will have additional capabilities that are not present in other editors. Most notable is the Google Docs-esque collaboration feature, which will probably be the largest part of its marketing. However, because these capabilities are not available in the open beta, people are only talking about what has been revealed so far, which is mostly in the low-latency performance of the editor.
It seems like both you and the people you're arguing with are generalizing wildly and lack curiosity.

The situation in the article sounds more like a bureaucratic snafu, where the company is hiring but the teams either aren't given open headcount to use, or they don't want to use it on the new hires for some reason.

Isn't that weird? Wouldn't you like to know how that happened?

I doubt it generalizes, but it's interesting.

“For our initial run, fine-tuning a 7B LLaMA model took 3 hours on 8 80GB A100s, which costs less than $100 on most cloud compute providers. We note that training efficiency can be improved to further reduce the cost.”

($500 was what they paid OpenAI to generate the fine-tuning dataset.)

> Insane amounts of inner-city schools without Air conditioning depend on open windows, kids sitting inside all-day next to busy streetscapes with diesel trucks roaring by. We know what this does to people.

The surburbian schools I went to as a kid didn't have air conditioning, just a line of windows in the back of the room that were always open during the spring & summer, and a line of windows in the front near the ceiling, that were also open on hot days.

AFAIK most of those schools were remodeled in the 2000s. They added air conditioning and nobody opens the windows anymore. That's great on a hot day, but man I really liked the fresh air on days with nice weather.
I never really got why people LOVE two-way binding to the point that they add things like mobx to projects. IMHO the one way data flow makes things so much easier to reason about.
You won't understand why the generated code you use that still works is suboptimal, and you'll internalize antipatterns that still work nonetheless. And your skill ceiling and ability to work in mature codebases will scale linearly with the token context limit.
OpenAI cofounder: “open-sourcing Al is just not wise”
To add some color to this, I know of at least one contracting agency / consultancy that effectively operated as a guild for about 10 years.

When you hired somebody from them, you knew you were getting the real deal. Their contracts included protection from off-the-clock hours, 4-day weeks, etc. They were also super transparent and accurate with the "level" of people you were getting. They charged a premium-level fee (read: not an exorbitant, luxury-level fee), but my company at the time was happy to pay – the marginal expense was basically insurance that nobody involved was going to be wasting their time. On every IC team they were embedded in, they got better performance reviews and 360 reviews than anybody else.

I think over the years, they (tragically, IMO) appear to have drifted away from this model, because they found they could grow faster by aiming more "mid-market"; my guess is that the pool of money on the buy side in the mid-market is larger.

Basically, mediocrity is the most profitable equilibrium. You have to possess some organizing principle that's more foundational than the pursuit of profit to avoid it. There's ways to do that without getting totally wonky. You could organize as a Co-Op (so you operate group-selfishly instead of leader-selfishly), register as a benefit corporation, etc.
But what’s their debt and running costs?
I see less, possibly zero, fascist fan streamers when I look at Twitch.

Yeah, it's going to be really "exciting" for Angular users as well in the next few years because Angular is drowning in those old "experimental decorators" which are not wholly compatible with today's Stage 3 decorators and the transition is going to be error prone and tedious. Up until TS 5.x it at least gave you a compile error if you tried to use decorators in code without the "experimental" flag, but now they will compile (except where they don't) even if you have the wrong flags but the behavior is so different between the flags it likely won't run. That's going to cause some interesting havoc.
It has lasted as a project. Are you saying that no library should try to improve their performance, internals or API?

There was many versions of jQuery. I remember the days of hacking Drupal to load multiple versions because it shipped with an older version, but we needed a newer one for other dependencies.
"non-suckers"
Honestly I can't think of any evidence to support this theory.
A lot of these frameworks don't actually need a CLI to scaffold them. React was (at least originally, I haven't checked in on it in a while) designed to be _incrementally_ adopted so you can retrofit an existing website with React components.

But I do agree with the CLI for bootstrapping being a problem for react. It's less of the CLI itself and more of the mountains it moves under the hood to setup the app. I run a single command and get an absolutely massive project. Yes the final dist file is only KBs in size, but the entire build process that gets scaffolded is still part of my project. That single command install seems "easy" but leaves me with a huge amount of existential dread - no matter how much the tooling "paves the path" it doesn't delegate responsibility. Ultimately I'm on the hook for this application and when things don't work it's on me to understand why and fix them. After a CRA install, I'm often left feeling like I'm looking off a cliff into an abyss that is going to take a huge investment to understand.

The last time I used React was inside a big company. I felt safe using it there because there was a team responsible for "owning" react inside the company. I followed their docs to start with CRA and pull in their component library. If anything inside my CRA app went sideways I _had_ delegated responsibility to another team for that, I had a support line that I could reach out to to get help and ultimately problems at that level were their responsibility. That isn't true in my personal projects - so I don't use it there.

FWIW I actually feel the same way about infrastructure components. I am Terraform certified, have been sysadmining Linux installs for over a decade, have built a serverless platform inside FAANG, played SRE, etc. But still K8S, Linux, etc. leave me with similar feelings. When I can delegate their responsibility I'll build on top of them or participate on teams that manage them, but for my own stuff there is too much to chew for me to adopt that for a personal or client project. Even with my background, for my projects I choose platforms where I can delegate that part of the stack to a vendor. These days I'm building on Cloudflare Workers, R2, and PlanetScale for my DB (until D1 is prod ready). When I adopt a service - I pay for it at a rate that gets me support contracts. That $$$ is funding an engineering team far greater than me to build, support, maintain, and understand that chunk of the system so I don't have to.
For home use, you should aim for multiple sensors that can track temperature, humidity, CO2, VOC, and PM2.5.

CO2 is important to track as high concentrations can impact sleep quality and critical thinking ability.

VOCs is important to track as they are associated with asthma and allergic reactions.

CO2 can only be removed by opening a window.

Most VOCs come from household chemicals and are only removed by using lots and lots of charcoal filters as the HEPA filters in household air purifiers aren't able to capture it in significant amounts.
Render has been great. I recommend it unreservedly.

No. It's not too complex. It's just boring. And you people keep reinventing the wheel and presenting old concepts as "revolutionary" or "innovative". That is why you get looked down upon.

Isn't the point of banking regulations that we are relying on the government to do that checking?

Relying on customers to check their bank, besides being fairly impractical for all but the largest and most sophisticated customers, is just going to trigger bank runs as soon as customers get any whiff of a problem.

I don't see the problem with unlimited FDIC provided the regulations are congruent with that. If you want to go the private route for better interest rates and take on the regulatory burden yourself, you can always go with an uninsured bank. If you just want a simple place to stash a few hundred million, why make you jump through hoops?

What I don't understand is why start-ups were apparently keeping millions of dollars of capital in a bank account rather than government bonds or other instruments, given that the FDIC limit was well known.
Lossless is actually the appropriate test. These models output probabilities and can easily be turned into very effective lossless compressors with the use of arithmetic encoding. For a very interesting discussion see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dO4TPJkeaaU

The real problem with the Hutter prize is that the data and compute are too small. It seems obvious now that the regime where compression turns into AGI is far beyond the scale of the current contest (1 GB data, 50 CPU hours). If you simply bumped those limits up five or six orders of magnitude then the Hutter prize could be relevant today. But you'd also have to increase the size of the prize a few orders of magnitude because the cost of competing would be more than the current prize money.

Of course a prize isn't really a necessary incentive to develop AGI, since getting an AGI is about the best incentive you could possibly imagine.

My son's school was built in the inner city Brisbane streetscape in the 1920s in a time of low car density. Once we vehicled up, it was sitting between two day long constant flows of cars, buses and trucks. I believe it was also the first public school in Brisbane south of the tropics to get air-conditioning (Qld used to manage the economics of the problem by defining a climate boundary to limit the cost)

I get that "fresh air is best" and we kind-of also got that in covid times, its important to replace the air in a closed space. I like fresh air too. The problem is, what "fresh" is.

If you sit at a window above the garbage bins, for the first 10-20 minutes you know what people had for dinner. After your nose shuts down you tune it out, but those particles didn't stop winging it from the prawn heads into your breathing tract. We can't easily tell we're breathing in diesel particulate matter and like, unless you happen to walk by an airport at the right time to get a whiff from a passing jet, but the fine matter is there, smelt or not.

How much extra are they taking from your bank to cover the delta between what the FDIC will recover and what they have to pay out?
To be honest, that’s the “default” way of type systems - without runtime reflection capabilities type erasure is just a normal phase of an AOT compiler, why would you store types?

It's a little more complicated than that. These models, by nature, can only produce derivative mimicry. Humans are capable of generating spontaneous concepts and employing meta-qualities like craftmanship and labour in the output. From this we derive value and personal worth as artists, writers, scientists and engineers etc. To replace this process with an ML implementation devalues humanity and that is what most people are objecting to, if they realise it or not.

Up until a few months ago you could always schedule it all to be sold based on no insider info, and then continuously cancel the ongoing sales based on insider information (canceling was not considered trading).

https://www.sec.gov/news/statement/lizarraga-insider-trading...

And you could presumably do the same for buying. I'm not sure about doing so for buying and selling/shorting at the same time and then selectively cancelling.
No one has published what kind of discount the gov't applied to the assets it is leveraging to make uninsured SVB depositors whole. For all we know the government correctly forecast the likely future losses, allocated some extra assets from the SVB carcass, and functionally prepaid those maybe rate increases.

The problem, as it were, isn't some lurking or hidden loss, it's arguably that these answers aren't currently available and we don't have the slightest idea in the public what will happen if profits result from the bailout venture. This shouldn't be a "heads-I-win-tails-you-lose" redux.

> And lastly, insiders had to know that the fed’s projected rate hikes would hit the bond portfolio hard. I knew this, and I’m not an insider.

The problem with this, is that they presumably didn't work to protect their interests, or their customer's interests, by hedging appropriately.

There were months in April or May where they could have sold their long-term bonds and bought short-term bonds, to better hedge against FFR hikes.

-----------

What we're concerned about are executives protecting themselves, while screwing over their companies and/or depositors.
Minus the assets they recovered from SVB which will probably cover most of it given they were just illiquid, not fraudulent. All those bonds didn’t just disappear.
