I fed the question and the grading remark to GPT-4 and here's what I got:

"""

The problems with the question and grading remark are as follows:

1. The question assumes that everyone is identical, which is an unrealistic and oversimplified assumption. In reality, people have different preferences, time constraints, and valuations of goods and services. This assumption may limit the applicability of the conclusions drawn from the model.

2. The grading remark assumes that the provision of free coffee will cause the line to get longer. While this may be true in some cases, it is not necessarily true in all cases. The increased utility from receiving free coffee may not be enough to incentivize more people to join the line, especially if the waiting time is already long, or if there are alternative sources of coffee or raspberries available.

3. The grading remark also assumes that the waiting time will increase until the value of the coffee is completely dissipated. This is a strong assumption and may not hold in all cases. The increase in waiting time may be limited by factors such as the opening hours of the store or the availability of raspberries.

4. The grading remark calculates the social cost of providing the coffee as $100, which may be an oversimplification. The actual social cost may depend on factors such as the opportunity cost of the time spent waiting in line, the environmental impact of producing and distributing the coffee, and any externalities associated with coffee consumption.

5. The question does not specify whether the government's cost of $1 per cup includes the opportunity cost of the resources used to provide the coffee or only the direct monetary cost. This may lead to an underestimation of the true social cost of providing the coffee.

In conclusion, the question and grading remark are based on a simplified model that may not accurately capture the complexities of the real world. The assumptions made in the question and grading remark may limit the applicability of the conclusions drawn from the model.

Maybe it's not a failure of GPT-4 but a failure of a system which regards "professors of economics" as competent people.
Here are three more:

Checks and balances: A formal declaration of war requires a higher level of political support and public debate, providing more opportunity for scrutiny and oversight.

Indefinite conflicts: AUMFs often lack clear objectives or timelines, which can lead to prolonged and open-ended military engagements.

Legal ambiguity: AUMFs can create legal ambiguity, as they may not explicitly invoke the laws of war, which govern the conduct of armed forces and the treatment of civilians, prisoners of war, and non-combatants.
Damn. It's 12 EUR/month in Ireland.
It's funny how people on this website are always stupefied by the fact that the internet holds so much information and every time they search for something they always seem to find an answer somewhere, but when faced with a LLM trained on the whole internet they somehow get surprised when it knows about a truck load of minute things
Just wondering, did you write these bullet points with GPT? Some of the transition words sound GPT-ish.
>Or, OpenAI added a calculator function. Furthermore, I would add:

No lol. The test doesn't have to be mental arithmetic. and accuracy mistakes creep in at large numbers for multiplication. That's not how calculators work i'm sure you know

>ChatGPT hasn't "learned" anything outside of what exists in it's model.

I'm sorry...and you have?

>If it is an AI-based response, it's still derived from token-based inferencing.

Um...Ok? Lol

>One run of asking ChatGPT something is not enough to prove much of anything.

You can run this on gpt-4 as much as you like. the results are the same. It knows addition.

>They will find tokens for 'dig' and 'it', as well as 'add', 'car' and 'ry'. They will not find internalized understanding of the concept of math.

That's...not how that works lol, You don't probe neurons and see tokens. https://clementneo.com/posts/2023/02/11/we-found-an-neuron

Weights don't store the data they train on like that. They are essentially configuration settings.
Replying on to thread because I’ve seen multiple people ask this.
If you’ve got Apple TV there’s an easy solution without downloading any apps:

Quick solution to this is to save a 100% black image in your iCloud Photo Library , and set that image as your Apple TVs screen saver. I use that in both my Apple TVs and I can listen to music while the screen is completely black. Bonus points is that you get notifications of song changing on top!
They can do far more than ask nicely.

At a minimum, they can get a warrant and/or use provisions of the Patriot Act and similar. And for this it's likely warranted.

Even discussing this in the future tense is a bit weird, there's no way they don't _already_ have everything Discord does.
[roko's basilisk tousels your hair affectionately]
By a similar line of reasoning, many people did not expect LLMs to achieve these results. Maybe reductionism isn't too useful when we are dealing with emergent behaviors.
I am exceptionally optimistic about a future with LLMs. They seem to do really well at fastidiously replicating solutions to problems. What the currently lack, are relevant training data to generalize solutions to problems or the ability to perform higher order generalization.

I find it very easy to solve problems, but tedious to broadly apply solutions across domains. I'm also very sloppy as a programmer, letting my mind wander further into the future problems to the determent of the current task. Having an LLM buddy to codify my thoughts, regularize them and apply them with high precision would make me MUCH more productive.

In the end, it may be that LLMs are simply better programmers than 99.999% of people. But there will always be need for specialists to bridge between the LLM and some other domain and programmers of today will be that bridge.

And if not... then AGI will have eaten us all up to make paper clips anyway.
There was a paper or two a few weeks ago about a smaller deep learning model that interpretability researchers had found certain neurons in that behave almost like an API. Change the value on those those very small number of neurons and a large cascade effect happens resulting in drastically different output.

Super interesting discoveries lately.
> If you find someone you're happy with, you can't leverage that to find someone you're even more happy with, in the way that if you made a good trade in a market you'd have capital to conduct more trades with.

I agree with this.

Though I also don't think anyone is really trying to suggest (express or implied) that there's a general, natural analogy to be made between dating and markets; I solely think the word "value" was being used in the economical sense, without implying any further connection to economic theory. I realize that, when I suggested that "value" was probably meant in the sense of supply/demand, I may have conveyed something I wasn't trying to; sorry about that.

At any rate, this is how I and most people within both my family and social circles have used "value" in conversation: not an expression of sentiment, but merely an observation of what others want. Given this meaning, it's actually nonsensical to speak of a person's value without any supporting context -- people don't have value any more than the color green has smoothness/roughness, or the a note played on a piano is righteous/unjust -- these descriptors just don't apply. I could say that my skills within my career field are valued, and I suppose I could restate that as "I am a valuable employee", but I myself have no intrinsic value. If you read that with "value" replaced with "self worth" (by which people generally would mean something like "self esteem"), then it sounds pretty bad -- but that's not what's meant. I suspect most people in the HN demographic also use "value" pretty consistently in the way I've suggested -- not that I'm trying to make the argument that "value" should be interpreted this way or that way, but just pointing out what I think I've seen in practice.

I think what was originally suggested upstream in the comments was that there are qualities that most men happen to be looking for (are "valued"/"valuable"), and that those qualities give rise to pressures (as unfortunate as they may be) on women to find a long term / life partner sooner than later.
IBM also makes Java, it offers Eclipse.

Sun made Java, it offered Netbeans.

As for the Python community, no one expects great tooling from FOSS languages, as you mention everyone is using tooling from two big corporations.
This is a very cool idea.

Would be interesting to see a spread of like 5 pokemon with the most similar in the center and slightly higher weights on the right with slightly lower weight on the left. That way you can see how changing your weight would affect the results ;)

Also interesting that you're generating an image instead of having selectable text (I was expecting the @komori541milk to be a link).

It would also be cool to see multiple results in the case where there are ties. (Slowbro and Exeggutor have the exact same measurements for instance).
The growth in the recovered sum can likely be attributed to the recent upswing in cryptocurrency markets. I hope that this does not provide an undue advantage to SBF in his legal defense (e.g. "look FTX is solvent!").
Reading the latest update from the bankruptcy, regulation and enforcement definitely would have helped - I suspect any appropriate auditor conducting a thorough audit would have very quickly realised that the business lacked any controls at all on expenditure (amongst many other issues).

Instead, their auditors claim they stand by their work as they weren't asked to audit any internal controls. For a company with billions in customer deposits, that should never have happened.
I have a Masters in Computer Science and Engineering. Most jobs in my country requires either a Bachelors or a PhD so it is more of a stepping stone for a PhD which I have no interest in pursuing. My current job is the only one that requires my highest degree. My previous jobs all require a lower qualification. In fact, most of the things I learned in my 2 years of acquiring the degree are not that useful in all the jobs I've had so far. Was it worth it? Well, I got the degree from a prestigious institute and that seems to matter more to interviewers than the degree itself. Maybe the real degree is the friends we find along the way \s
It is. But the stories about throwing lawn darts over the house trying to hit each other is more exciting.
My degree was in Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering

Was it worth it?

Hell yes. And I thoroughly enjoyed the 4 years getting it. The payoff was big for me, well beyond financial returns.
The algorithm is defined. It has to be for us to use it. The question is what patterns in the training input are being exploited by the algorithm to generate text modeled after the input.
> But what is the proposal? Arresting people and incarcerating them for petty crimes?

What's an honest counter-proposal? "Allowing" minor crimes, or requiring people to simply let thieves take some of their things?

So, of course, yes. Arrest people for any crime that hurts other people, because the other option is that those others suffer or they need to defend themselves. Both of which are unfair and unproductive.

> you can't mandate a homeless person with mental health issue "go" to rehab, you can only lock them up

We aren't talking homeless, they're already easily helped.

We're talking the incurably anti-social and dangerous. People who routinely hurt their neighbors or damage their spaces and things. And yeah, you totally can mandate rehab - you lock people up and require rehab to leave.

We already have to lock them up anyways so if they choose not to benefit from or are actually incapable of participating in rehab then yeah you just leave them perpetually locked up in the lightest containment possible. It's generally easier and better, for them and us, than some "free to die on the streets" nonsense anyways.

And rehab is only much of the issue - many people are simply "ill" and are never going to get fully well. They don't need punishment, and have no substances to kick, but they still need fair and firm containment.
I come from a poor family and mp3.com was how I made my first proper money as a kid. I did "remixes" of video game music and mp3.com would pay per play. I sometimes made $1000 per month. It was incredible. Sadly, after a couple of month they changed their model and didn't pay indie artists anymore.
I hope you're not hiring UI developers. If so, this is the completely wrong criteria to evaluate them on.
They don't know even half of what they're missing but it's like they want a reward and approval for this bold, uninformed proclamation they want to lash their identity to.

Maybe it's just me, but: love, romantic sexual relationships, and some indescribable things between make life worth living. That's the good shit.

Life is so goddamn short: spend it with interesting, cool, reliable people.

And fuck around while you can because there will be a time when you can't.

You don't have to be clever, smooth, a genius, or perfect.. just treat others as human and be real. An interest in someone other than oneself. If that someone else doesn't reciprocate, move on. With age and practice, it gets as easy and natural as walking.

Regret at the end of life for a path not traveled is a living hell that cannot be undone. The goal in life should be to die happy having done everything and having dented the universe a bit.
I just overshoot it a bit so I'm always there when it's done, an extra 20 minutes won't hurt.
Cryptocurrencies do work. Maybe you can connect what's happened here to some specific shortcoming of cryptocurrencies - but it's not clear to me that anybody would need a forensic accountant just by nature of cryptocurrency.
I’m relatively unfamiliar with lisps. Are all S-expression languages not created relatively equal? What is the difference between a “good” S-expression language and a “poor” one?

CS in the classroom is not remotely similar to CS in the field. From my own experience, I definitely lacked the maturity and vision to look that far ahead. Interested to know how you made this determination and which parts you would actually grow to hate.
Loved your phrasing here around “ground reality”. I do the same partly because I miss coding but mostly because I don’t want the code base to get away from me.
You’re arguing about score and the person you are replying to is not talking about points for or against different approaches.

The person you are replying to is being very specific about ebpf not being a microkernel approach. By definition it is the opposite.

You’re looking to debate someone on the pros/cons of dogs and cats but you’re doing it by insisting that a golden retriever is actually a cat. Then when people call you out saying it’s very much not a cat, you lash out about the great benefits of a golden retriever as if they refutes something.
> Intel Atom could have dominated the market

Depends on what you call Atom, but if you mean Atom as it was released then absolutely no, it had exactly zero fighting chance. IIRC first Atoms were Pentium 4 or so fabricated on smaller process and resulting in lower power draw. The only meaningful use for early Atoms was crappy netbooks.

However, it was or could have been an important stepping stone for paving the road towards x86-based low power devices. Remember, it was also a time where linux-on-arm started booming. It could have been an alternative to ARM SoCs, but there were simply too little attractive offerings and Broadcom/Freescale/Ti effectively ate the market
Do we need to change our name which contains "rust"?
And many more are introduced into the JVM before they make their way into CLR.

As for mattering to the user, it surely does, it shows how lacking their ecosystem is for specific workloads.
I used to say this as well, I’ve written blog posts and made videos saying exactly this.

But - I would strongly recommend trying GPT4.

There’s a very good video that is worth watching as well that may not change your mind, but will certainly make you think: https://youtu.be/qbIk7-JPB2c

The thing to remember is that these models are unbelievably huge and deep. We don’t know what is really happening in the layers or what it has really learned.

Thinking that it’s a simple language model that is just predicting the next most likely word is unwise.
The neat thing is Tesla can and does update their software OTA, even for really old models. So maybe some day you'll be able to drive without any instrumentation to bother you.

I think it was Lindows that was ahead of its time with its own app store-type deal before they were cool.
I don't think this sort of dismissal adds anything to the conversation. I myself, in the act of typing this comment, am "generating text".

I think it's interesting to discuss the capabilities of leading-edge language models like GPT-4, because (a) they are already exhibiting the ability to perform a wide variety of useful tasks, and (b) it's clear that there is still a lot of unrealized potential here.

Can you clarify the implications you see here? Are you saying that these LLMs are somehow uninteresting or incapable? That there are limits to what they will be able to accomplish even with further improvements? Or something else?
I used them both, and think 3 was better. GNOME, on the other hand, was OK at version 1 (contemporaneous with KDE 2, which I still liked better), and went to shit at version 2 (contemporaneous with KDE 3).
can you elaborate or source?
Asking this question generally has no value because everyone's experience is different. It's hard to a/b test this because it's impossible to control for everything else.

You'll see lots of personal stories in this thread. Some will say yes, some will say no, some will have no degree.

Some degrees are better than others. Some institutions are better than others.

There simply is no one-size-fits-all answer here.

Of course for someone contemplating a degree, some research and planning is a good idea. Maybe find people with your context, with your planned degree, and quiz them.
Babylonyan Base 60 is superior.
The proper solution is to have a plan (with contingencies, etc) and follow the plan. Otherwise the solution is guaranteed to be political and thus stupid.

Politicians are going to be worried about perception of the appropriateness of their actions, not the correctness of those actions.
I haven't dunked on bitcoin once. nor have i ever mentioned "permissionless"

Bitcoin is an open ledger. It was never designed for hiding transactions. I'm also not saying thats a bad thing. it just is what it is, and yes I hold some btc (albeit not much, just enough to experience it mostly)

In recent years, Dubai has experienced some of the world’s fastest urban expansion, and a significant contributor to this growth has been the city’s real estate industry. The city has experienced significant real estate investment, leading to the development of some of the most recognisable structures in the world, including the Burj Khalifa, the highest structure in the world.

A few major trends and variables are projected to influence the real estate market in Dubai in the future. They include:

Growth: Despite recent swings, Dubai’s real estate market is predicted to rise over the next few years due to a mix of population expansion, economic growth, and more tourism.

Emphasis on sustainability: Dubai, like many other cities worldwide, is putting more of an emphasis on sustainability and lowering its carbon footprint. Developers and investors are anticipated to place a higher focus on green construction techniques and energy efficiency, which will have a substantial influence on the city’s real estate market.

Technology is Emphasised: Dubai is renowned for embracing new technologies, and it is probable that this will also apply to the real estate industry. Many technological advancements, like smart houses and buildings and blockchain-based property transactions, have the potential to change how Dubai developed, purchases, and sells real estate.
Vtech is pure evil, they are the most useless annoying toys; I would prefer giving kids YouTube than let them play with those unless it's with a hammer
It does contain both modes. But only one of those declarations will be used, and that declaration can do things like background images, which is behaviour the server can observe.

You could potentially try and "execute" all possible declarations at the same time, in effect just loading every URL or image declared in the CSS file at once, so the server can't tell which path was actually used. But (a) this would itself be identifiable as an anti-tracking measure (which can contribute to a fingerprint), and (b) this loads a lot more data in the general case, which is exactly what browsers want to avoid.

> GPT-4 absolutely isn’t a Markov chain

I mean it is technically a high order Markov chain, or at least every published GPT-N is so far. For example, GPT-3 is a 2048-order Markov chain over tokens.

There may be some confusion because of the difference between the technical definition of Markov chain vs. how low-order Markov chains are usually implemented. Maybe you are used to Markov chains that have explicit transition matrices stored in memory and they are trained by counting the number of times a token appears after every prefix. That does give a Markov chain. But technically Markov chains aren't required to have their transition matrix be explicitly stored in memory, and they aren't required to be trained by simple counting (max likelihood transitions). They can have implicit transition matrices and be trained by gradient descent or whatever and still technically be Markov chains.

I saw Karpathy weigh in on this and he said it's a Markov chain in the same way that a computer is a Markov chain. I guess his point is that if you have a high enough order Markov chain, the intuitions and connotations of Markov chains become less useful, and maybe 2048 order is high enough that it crosses that threshold.
