What’s not clear from OpenAI is what they actually store.

Clearly they store information from ChatGPT, but if I hit their chat/completions API with the same exact question do they store that as well?
Maybe OpenAI will produce such a product, but seeing the amount of tools like yours that are coming out every day, I have more of a feeling that they will make their money from the tokens used. My 2 cents.

For the past few months I have been looking for a way to free up staff time to answer the same questions over and over again because our members and customers don't read our documents and website. There is no added value in having employees answer questions like these.

Your tool has a huge added value: instant response for the member or client, time I can invest elsewhere from these employees to do project development.

Fourth question: do you plan to be able to process an entire website, for example with its sitemap? Or is it page by page?

Thank you!
You can be your bottom dollar that every such tabloid news is about getting eyeballs generating impressions on chumbox ads.

Can we not outlaw deceptive chumbox ads and make this cancer of poor quality gossip "news" for-profit disappear?
Poorly phrased. React has no inherent a11y issue. People misapply it too frequently due to a lack of fundamental knowledge. MFA's cater towards building less interactive content, and more so static pages, so they are less likely to have a11y bugs.

I wouldn't be surprised one bit if Angular apps failed a11y audits at similar rates to React apps. But it isn't a problem with SPA's as an architectural concept, the problem is uneducated engineers.

I saw this last night, I found an article from some smart PhD dude who is a Yale prof and a former federal reserve governor, it explained what would happen if the fed lost money. Nothing much, unless they lose a lot of money for a long period of time.
Reading through the actual text of this bill (obligatory I am not a lawyer), I don't see _anything_ that actually would allow a Person ("a natural person, including a citizen or national of the United States or of any foreign country.") to be considered a "Covered Entity". The language for "Entity" _clearly_ specifies that it is only referring to artificial entities e.g. LLCs, Trusts, etc.

I have my own opinions on the bill, but I don't see a legal pathway in this bill to apply any of the restrictions on it to a Person, only onto companies.
Hmm yes. Find a loophole around my rights to privacy and make me pay for it with my own tax dollars and while you’re at it make sure you pay a crazy prices. Thanks Uncle Sam.

As do I.

And that is something ChatGPT-X (for any given X) cannot provide, regardless of whether or not what is produced is correct. Perhaps with some form of backward chaining[0] a ChatGPT-X someday can explain how it arrived at what was produced works.

But "the why" is the domain of people.

It’s been long enough that I can’t remember if the project was already basically dead or not going anywhere by this point, but whatever the final nail was and whether it was nailed in before or after Sun was bought, Oracle buying Sun would have just completely cremated the project no matter what state it was in.
The premise is not that, it’s that the Chinese government can influence the content that the US population is exposed to. For fucks sake, US politicians are campaigning on a platform that the CCP can manipulate.
Recently I paid to book better seats on an Air France flight and since the website was a hot mess (specifically the payment portal) I tried various VPNs to try and get through. To my surprise, prices were significantly different (about ~20% variation) depending on country, and it was most expensive in...France.

This was on a flight that had already been booked from the US long ago.
>Mainland china keeps calling Taiwan its province!

Technically, Taiwan thinks that the entirety of mainland China belongs to Taiwan.

The only difference between the two dreams is that Taiwan has no realistic way of acquiring China. But China does.
Such a tool could be used if there were regulations around its usage in police stations and proper auditing of its use. Seems like we're far from it. I hope it doesn't fall into the hands of foreign adversaries.

Rust has features besides memory safety that are generally useful — robust error handling, pattern matching, fast and powerful JSON support, nice package manager, ease of deployment, first-class WASM support, etc. Some people value these features enough to use Rust even outside of its niche. Even when performance isn't critical, it may be a nice to have.

I sometimes feel like Rust is overcompensating for its hard parts :) It's not easy to learn its memory management, but the error messages do their best to teach you!
Keep in mind that the messaging ecosystem is big enough for multiple winners. Over the past few decades, there seems to be a continual churn where a handful of messaging apps dominate at any given time without a single one taking over completely.
Yeah, this is a bugbear. FWIW my wife and I "share" keychain items by airdropping them to one another as required. It works, but nowhere near as nice as having a common record we can both maintain.
FPS games are entertaining as well. The downside is you need to know: (1) the game (e.g. csgo), (2) roughly know the map (e.g. de_dust2), and (3) have a commentator that breaks down the mindgames both teams are using. If you have all 3 elements, then watching FPS is simply amazing. I've watched a former CS pro (friberg [1]) commentate some csgo matches on his stream. It's simply amazing how much he knows about the game, and some of the mindgames / strategies both teams use.

Agree with you that it's a bit easier to know what's going on with RTS games like Age of Empires, since you have a top-down isometric view instead of only first-person view like csgo.

Interesting idea, though I'm wondering for example how you manage namespaces, or for example one component extending or using another one. Do your various modules just have lots of checks about certain valid states on the global namespace?
Sure, but I'm asking, who's being found these days on Google? It seems to me people are being found on listicles, reddit, instagram, facebook, and various word of mouth channels.

Koch method is to do "full speed" Morse code from the beginning, but only learn 1 or 2 letters at a time.

This Javascript page starts with the letters "k" and "m" for Lesson 1. Then, in Lesson 2, you learn "k, m, and r". Etc. etc.

The way the app works is click on the "k" to hear how "k" sounds. Then click on "m" for its sound. Finally, hit the "Start Lesson" button, and the computer will make a random mix of k and m (and extended pauses, which means "space").

You type in "k m k mm mmkkm" or similar into the textarea, and the computer then sees how accurate you were.

yes. it's in-fact there. But that's one more level of indirection from the "problem" at hand (because the global excludes file needs a config setting for it to even be considered, whereas .git/info/exclude is present in every repo)
It is 100% a handout to other social media companies who donate heavily to both parties.
Doubtful a TikTok ban would come in the form of banning users from using the app, exactly because that infringes on individual liberties. Ban is being used loosely: it Most likely would come in the form of disallowing direct access, blocking ip ranges, etc, corporate dissolution, blocking TikTok from banking system, or the like. With no penalty for an individual who circumvents TikTok access.

The situation that is most likely is that the government will make it so that nobody really wants to use TikTok anymore, or possibly, that TikTok can't afford to operate in the states.

This sort of stuff the us does all the time (cryptocurrency exchanges, online gambling, porn sites, e.g.).

The us also has a history of redomiciling companies. For example that one time the US redomiciled the entire us operations of a pharma company that was, you know, supporting a genocide.

If some politician wanted to be clever, all they would have to do is say if any company more than 10% owned by a state or with any state employees in management positions sells arms to Russia or Russian countries, then all companies more than 10% owned by that state or with that state's state employees in management positions is subject to sanctions. Kill two birds with one stone.
> People will simply grow up without a car, and that will be their normal

If my last in-office experience ~5 years ago is any indication, that's already pretty common. A good portion of the younger employees had never owned a car, some didn't even have a drivers license. This was in The Mission district of SF.

Oh for sure i don't mean to say it's excellent in every language. But i personally think a lot of that is training data representation. Doesn't need to be anywhere equal but for instance after English(93%), the biggest language representation for GPT-3's training corpus is french at...1.8 % Pretty wild.

Of Course i don't know the data for GPT-4

I've tried it between English and Dutch (which is my native language). It's pretty fluent, makes less grammar mistakes than google translate and seems to generally get the gist of the meaning across. It's not a pure syntactical translation. Which is why it can work even between some really obscure language pairs. Or indeed programming languages. Where it goes wrong is when it misunderstands context. It's not an AGI and may not pick up on all the subtleties. But it's generally pretty good.

I ran the abstract of this article through chat gpt. Flawless translation as far as I can see. To be fair, Google translate also did a decent job. Here's the chat GPT translation.

Veel NLP-toepassingen vereisen handmatige gegevensannotaties voor verschillende taken, met name om classificatoren te trainen of de prestaties van ongesuperviseerde modellen te evalueren. Afhankelijk van de omvang en complexiteit van de taken kunnen deze worden uitgevoerd door crowd-werkers op platforms zoals MTurk, evenals getrainde annotatoren, zoals onderzoeksassistenten. Met behulp van een steekproef van 2.382 tweets laten we zien dat ChatGPT beter presteert dan crowd-werkers voor verschillende annotatietaken, waaronder relevantie, standpunt, onderwerpen en frames detectie. Specifiek is de zero-shot nauwkeurigheid van ChatGPT hoger dan die van crowd-werkers voor vier van de vijf taken, terwijl de intercoder overeenkomst van ChatGPT hoger is dan die van zowel crowd-werkers als getrainde annotatoren voor alle taken. Bovendien is de per-annotatiekosten van ChatGPT minder dan $0.003, ongeveer twintig keer goedkoper dan MTurk. Deze resultaten tonen het potentieel van grote taalmodellen om de efficiëntie van tekstclassificatie drastisch te verhogen.

Translating the Dutch back to English using Google translate (to rule out model bias) you get something that is very close to the original that is still correct:

Many NLP applications require manual data annotations for various tasks, especially to train classifiers or evaluate the performance of unsupervised models. Depending on the size and complexity of the tasks, these can be performed by crowd workers on platforms such as MTurk, as well as trained annotators, such as research assistants. Using a sample of 2,382 tweets, we show that ChatGPT outperforms crowd workers for several annotation tasks, including relevance, point of view, topics, and frames detection. Specifically, ChatGPT's zero-shot accuracy is higher than crowd workers for four of the five tasks, while ChatGPT's intercoder agreement is higher than both crowd workers and trained annotators for all tasks. In addition, ChatGPT's per-annotation cost is less than $0.003, about twenty times cheaper than MTurk. These results show the potential of large language models to dramatically increase the efficiency of text classification.

I'm sure there are edge cases where you can argue the merits of some of the translations but it's generally pretty good and usable.
> Have you been so brainwashed that you think the US government is more of an enemy than China?

The US government has detained or killed many more people like me than China has. I don't think that's brainwashing, that's just the reality.

> Why did China hack OPM (every personal data on every fed employee),equifax (credit on all americans) and every major company being hit by their hackers?

Probably the same reason the NSA grabs all that data.
In the same situation here.

Yes, it looks like traveling outbound from some major hubs is more expensive than from other places. A round trip SFO-XYZ two week ticket can be substantially more expensive than XYZ-SFO round trip for the same period.

Note that depending on when you travel and for how long, a SFO-XYZ-SFO ticket might be more expensive also because it is a shorter ticket (1 month or 3 month ticket) and it hits a high season period ("tourist season"), whereas the XYZ-SFO-XYZ is a long-term ticket (12 months) that avoids (most of) the high season.
> and you have to make sure to get every detail right or you’re back to the uncanny valley of SPA web pages

You can’t get every detail right, because the browser doesn’t expose some of the pieces that would be required to do so—even apart from details that vary between browsers. The most obvious example of unexposed functionality is the loading indicator, but there are more around things like slow or failing networks.
Oh, I am sure I could wrestle Windows into submission if I wanted to. I just don't want to fight with my computer.

If Steam was not available on Linux then I would likely still have abandoned Windows and just limited my gaming to whatever runs on a Nintendo Switch.

Anyway, My husband decided to stick with Windows for his gaming computer (same hardware as mine) and my Linux computer (with ZFS) can load every game in under half the time it takes his machine.

It did take a day to figure out the magic environment variables to better performance in games, but now that I got them I just copy paste them for new games.
It really need some zero-shot or few-shot magic from LLMs, or even heuristics to detect common patterns like emails, and just generate a sane regex, rather than stuff like [A-Za-z]{2,}@libertylabs\.ai which will obviously fail with a few more examples.

Of course, but Roman roads were far superior. They were more durable (especially under heavy traffic for commerce or supplying an army), straighter, had good drainage, and they linked together to form a complete network.[0][1]

Earlier paved roads do exist,[2] but (due to their high material/labor cost) this was only sporadically feasible, between settlements with high traffic between them. Part of the genius of the Roman road network was the system of bureaucracy and taxation to pay for it. This meant that a traveller (or an army) could rely on the existence of a continuous, high-quality road linking distant locations.

Here is a def of transaction from the bill:

(17) TRANSACTION.—The term “transaction” means any acquisition, importation, transfer, installation, dealing in, or use of any information and communications technology product or service, including ongoing activities such as managed services, data transmission, software updates, repairs, or the provision of data hosting services, or a class of such transactions.

Does it mean you can’t install an app developed by an adversary and App Store can be liable for letting you do this?
I was seriously considering abandoning gaming on PC and just using a Nintendo Switch. These days there are so many great indie games that don't require much hardware.
GPT 4.5 Release Date
I have rarely seen bad but barely workable website become good with incremental improvement. After the product reaches some threshold of users, it is hard to change the code structure in a safe testable way if there is no good way to test it in production like environment, and so developers are rightfully afraid to make any big changes in one go. I have seen many examples both internally and externally.

- My bank's website which is a decade old and has millions of users, has tons of issues. I am not even talking about UI or look. It randomly hangs, session disconnects etc.

- ERP tool of one of my previous org sucked, even though used by 10s of 1000s of people and having dedicated team in maintaining.

- One team that I worked with has no proper staging environment, and it would have required synced deployment of dozens of services with many teams working with different language and config. And just this simple task couldn't be completed even with push from upper management, just because of complexity.

Lot of companies doesn't even have these: Have a way to properly test product, have actionable alerting/logging, have reproducible environment, and distribute ownership clearly among code components. Kubernetes more or less forces a reproducible environment.
Yes. But it was less annoying.

Back in the day, I got all of my gaming news out of a physical magazine. That means people with a hyped-up scammy product had no way of reaching me unless they could convince the writer at that magazine that they were legit.

Nowadays, all of the grifters can email me directly and/or create SEO-optimized websites and/or pay Google/Facebook to shove ads into my face.

The democratization of communication has made scams much more annoying.

You are not alone in your sentiments. Anyone that has a pulse on the USG’s security posture knows exactly what’s going on here. At any moment, the CCP can press their finger on the scale of public opinion, manipulating 150 million Americans at once. We already saw how Facebook, Google, and Twitter royally fvcked the last election cycle, incited violence across the country, and divided us during COVID... that was a coordinated effort between domestic tech companies and government agencies (fact, not opinion). Imagine what's possible when a foreign country enters the chat, especially when public trust in institutions is at an all-time low.

Roughly 50% of the American population is using TikTok. Folks ought to chew on that thought for a moment.

People have been property in SF after the 1960s. In fact, much of its housing stock was built since 1980.

> You need to build where people want to move. This doesn't really have to do anything with not building more housing, and indeed NIMBYism explicitly denies housing construction approvals.

Just because everyone wants to live in SF, which has a density much higher than Houston, doesn’t mean everyone can live in SF. If SF was a dense as Manhattan, it wouldn’t be any cheaper than it is now, it might even be as expensive as Manhattan.
