This misrepresentation of what writing is, is something I very commonly see in software. People often think software dev is about coding.

In reality, while software developers probably enjoy the act of coding, it’s rarely the interesting or difficult part. It’s just the rendering you do to bring all the work you did to life.

I don't think centrism means believing the status quo is good. Good and bad are on a different axis from left to right. A centrist can believe in a great need for improvement that doesn't involve raising or lowering taxes, expanding or reducing government budget, etc. Corruption and regulatory capture and bad foreign policy and such aren't things solved by moving left or right, generally.
It’s still going to be a lot lower than it would have been. The important bit from a sanction perspective is that their revenue is down 43%.
Missed opportunity for Stability to call themselves “ClosedAI” then being the opposite of what the name suggests.
Correct, the question is, how soon will ChatGPT techniques top out?

I suspect: a lot sooner than the optimistic "we're close to AGI!" crowd expect. Stochastic parroting is not in itself a route to AGI. It has real limitations.

Mr Beck's assertion that grown means that we _will_ be surpassed in this matter is I think, not necessarily correct. We might, but I see it as unlikely, not inevitable. This is simply because the growth rate is never constant for ever, it tops out.
How does this work? Does it feed the PDF's text as a prompt to the LLM? How would you do this if you had, say, thousands of pages of a website?

I feel like "chatbot/search engine hybrid which can consume a large website and know everything about the org it represents" is a powerful application.

It’s important to note that religious ceremonies are exempted from this law.

I understand that. I'm just saying that the people who don't want to try IPv6 aren't motivated by that. For many the calculus is simply functionality divided by effort. They're not configuring IPv6 because it's hard or because it doesn't work. They're not configuring IPv6 because they already use IPv4 and it still works for them.
Attestation isn't a necessary requirement of an authentication token, and is inherently hostile to user freedom.

If some knobsite wants to insist on me using a "hardware authentication key" (similar to how many currently insist on using email/SMS codes), but I want to set it up so that secret is stored in my browser because that site isn't so important to me, setting my own security policy that directly contradicts their wishes should be my right. Their control shouldn't extend onto my own computers(s), with the demarcation point being the Internet itself.
My guess is some ppl get tired of the moaning about things you can’t change. So short circuiting the topic is avoiding the annoyance and maybe an antivirus to prevent one’s own thoughts from spiraling negatively.

Seems to me that it's very hard to have a moat in LLMs without proprietary code, given that most of their training data is freely available. This is very different form the 2010's era of AI, where they were trained on large amounts of proprietary data that was specific to a given service and could not be replicated.

It's a lot easier to pat yourself on the back for releasing a paper about your techniques when your competitors can't replicate your service with it. I think that as generative AI models move past the hype phase into the competitive phase, they will be keeping a lot of innovation proprietary for at least a few years to maintain an edge over their competitors.

Let's just hope they don't move to patenting everything.

The USSR was a major adversary for roughly 45 years, 1946 to 1991. The US provided them major economic aid in WWII which they leveraged into a massive expansion and had minimal interaction before the war.

>So this is a good academic debate between well-intentioned participants. It is being carried out in a cordial way, in public, in long-form essays rather than on Twitter. The question for readers — and particularly parents, school administrators, and legislators — is which side you should listen to as you think about what policies to adopt or change.

I've been reading all the essays, and the meta-commentary is that the reason the debate reads the way it does is that it's ... not on social media.
wow, this is super cool and the code so simple

I think one major difference is that it’s easy to chill on your own.

It’s really hard for something to be gezellig when you are alone, it almost always refers to the people around you, or a location that you’d be happy to meet people. Like, an empty house or cafe is basically never gezellig.

My god I never expected that would be so hard to explain.
Yup, you're exactly right. I totally forgot about that. Thinking about it more, the rudder and tiller might be different things on ships too; I think a rudder you turn right to go right, and a tiller you turn left to go right, because of where the pivot point is?

It's a good thing I'm not at the helm ;)

You are missing the nuance.

You can go ahead and try staking your money yourself on the protocol. But do it through coinbase equation changes.

Also coinbase earn does defi yield (which is more clear cut securities), but i am in mexico now, and can't tell if this were the case in the US or i am seeing geofenced content.

Then how about an N95/N100 (recent Celeron successor) mini PC, like the ones from Beelink? They don’t draw that much power, but are 2-3x faster than a Raspi, have HW supported video de/encoding and can even run Windows if you needed that.

> Barnes – a Democrat who served as lieutenant governor of Texas and was vice-chair of John Kerry’s 2004 election campaign

More context: "His mentor was John B. Connally Jr., a titan of American politics and former Texas governor who had served three presidents and just lost his own bid for the White House. A former Democrat, Mr. Connally had sought the Republican nomination in 1980 only to be swamped by former Gov. Ronald Reagan of California. Now Mr. Connally resolved to help Mr. Reagan beat Mr. Carter and in the process, Mr. Barnes said, make his own case for becoming secretary of state or defense in a new administration."

There were no lawsuits around LLaMA. They used DCMA requests to take down some GitHub and HuggingFace releases but the majority of releases (Alpacas and other animals) was left alone. It was enough to prevent commercial use, though.
Edit: a lawsuit would be quite interesting, to clear up many things around how copyright works for LLMs.
As a Brazilian, I'm happy to see a great Brazilian studio like Aquiris having relevance in the games industry.
> The extra current is a physical thing and you need more material to temporarily withstand it, and more circuit to detect and control it.

Supposedly most of the chips can already temporarily withstand extra current. But the point of a current-limiting circuit is that you don't have extra.

> uncontrolled switching event

I'm not suggesting turning it off entirely, unless that's much much easier.

> it'll probably ring unless you add even more components to absorb and control that

If it fluctuates some when overloaded, that still sounds better than frying itself. But I'd expect an integrated implementation to keep pretty tight bounds.

> that could exceed the physical limits and trigger a parasitic circuit

What physical limits? You've lost me at this point.

> It can be a lot of work for the board designer

I was suggesting building it into the chip.
> The valve: The builder not only placed the valve in a non-standard location [behind the pilot's left shoulder], he also rotated it in such a way that turning the valve to the right turned on the left fuel tank. This ensured that a pilot unfamiliar with the aircraft, upon hearing the engine begin missing and spotting in his mirror that the left fuel tank was empty, would attempt to rotate the fuel valve to the right, away from the full tank, guaranteeing his destruction.

So the builder intended you turn the backwards valve right, towards the left wing, and that activates the left fuel tank? This certainly sounds like a better human interface than turning the backwards valve left, towards the right wing, and activating the left tank.
> But the older I get and the more the industry changes the less I find I use "modern tech" as a consumer.

It may be a "get out of my lawn!!" reaction, but I find modern software distasteful.

I want to use software that enable me to invent and do nice things. Not software that locks me in a pre-designed process. Even if most of the time I don't go inventing, and if the pre-designed process is nice, that difference still sores me.
Your own link cited a 43% drop in revenue, a 21% drop in income, and a large deficit.
Everybody can have ideas, even people that aren't writers. A writer is a good at the translation from idea to paper, which is what LLMs are uniquely suited to assist.

I have already used LLMs to publish my first book. Specifically, I used sudowrite + chatGPT. LLMs are a true equalizer in writing. Correcting grammar, improving and rephrasing wording, and even helping to brainstorm and organize.
> Always with the disinformation.

There is no need for accusations like this. There is a grain glut in Europe to the extent that Poland and other countries are closing their borders to imports (I think it has something to do with the fact that's it's difficult ship over the black sea due to obvious reasons and the land routes are lacking in capacity).

That's certainly a narrative one side sells. One does have to wonder though, how it is that this could be possible given the complete lack of power in society held by those individuals. Maybe it's a bit more hyped up than it really is.

My off-the-cuff answer:

I am a decent writer and communicator.

It takes me a little while to get from a bulleted outline to a crisp couple of paragraphs.

I now use ChatGPT to do initial composition from the bulleted list, and then a first edit. Then I do final edits myself. It saves about half the time, and it feels like it saves more than half of the energy.

ChatGPT's revision of my answer:

I'm proficient in writing and communication, but I require some time to transform an outline into a concise and polished piece of writing. To streamline the process, I use ChatGPT for the initial draft and first edit, and do the final editing myself. This approach cuts down the time and effort required significantly.
Using a template to render out text that is then interpreted as something else (YAML in this case) is always fraught with quoting issues, complex workarounds, and for YAML specifically indentation issues.

You see the same thing with the C preprocessor - there's a very good reason that basically no language since has copied that design, and it's infamous for being full of footguns.

A far simpler and more manageable solution is to generate the same data structure (the final manifest) in a language which can actually represent those data structures directly. That might be a dedicated language like Cue or Jsonnet, or it could just be a general purpose programming language. You can generate the data structure using whatever tools you like, and then render it to JSON or YAML to be consumed by whatever tool is uploading it to kubernetes (kubectl apply, helm, etc).
Interesting concept! Can kind of see it, although Zanzibar is a bit less concrete. REST really came into it's own with Rails, I think. Wonder if Aserto is Zanzibar's Rails?

>What’s actually going on in Florida is an ideological debate about how to teach kids to think about sexuality and gender identity more generally.

No it's not and that's a completely disingenuous reading of what is actually going on in Florida, which is clearly reactive politics and pearl-grasping over every single culture war issue because their governor is pushing these kinds of policies to gain nat'l political prominence.

OK, so what is it?
My first thought was "hmm, would this help with fillable forms?" but then I realized... that could be done without an LLM (some code filling in a PDF, maybe a low-code solution?)

The only advantage I can think of is how introducing an LLM is basically a way to hopefully/maybe (with low accuracy) go one step further than low-code? Like, you can type "in thought/in English" as if it was a robust instruction prompt with sophisticated understanding that was able to boil down to the equivalent of basically a few lines of code/shell script to fill in a PDF.

A while ago my team needed exactly this kind of auth solution, so the eng team reached out to Ory to clarify some technical questions that weren't covered by the docs. We were super enthusiastic about Ory. It looked solid, was open-source, and ticked all the right boxes.

We got an immediate response by a very motivated sales person who insisted to be connected with management and refused to put us in touch with anybody technical. It was a pretty off-putting experience, because it basically presumed that our eng team wasn't the decision maker (it was). I know a lot of companies throw their sales people at you, wanting to get in touch with somebody higher in the org chart, but it's still a pretty insulting experience for a tech-driven organization.

Needless to say we went with something else (not Auth0 either) and have been very happy.

If you read the article, it states the shortage has to do with flooding, not drought.

While most of your points are true, they are skewed toward some resentment toward the West.

The eating habits of rich countries, relative to developing countries, has become much more sustainable. Look at meat consumption by source, over time, in USA. Chicken, which has the highest feed conversion ratio, leads the pack by a huge margin since the late 90s/early 2000s.

Developing countries' demand for meat has exploded and will continue to rise as incomes go up.

What percent of the global population lives in a developing country? ~85%.

Over time, these countries will be responsible for most meat consumption. And emissions.

Regarding pollution, you are focusing on the wrong things. Sure, private jets are inefficient. What is their contribution to GHGs? Less than 0.05%. Super car and yachts? Come on..

As energy infrastructure is built out for this 85% of the population, the emissions per nation will flip on its' head.
This is awesome! So excited to play around with it!
Well... I wasn't in the Crimea in 2014 so I don't have direct experience. But journalists I trust from the BBC, Al Jazeera and the New York Times were there and reported directly observing irregulars with sterile uniforms (no unit or country insignia) speaking Russian with Russian equipment and weapons.

It is widely believed Russia provided arms, equipment and personnel to aid paramilitary separatists, effectively taking over Crimea in 2014.

Despite earlier attempts to hide their involvement, Russian defense minister Sergey Shoygu admitted russian forces were involved.

While I often recommend readers take Wikipedia articles with a grain of salt and try to verify citations, the "Annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation" article recounts a narrative consistent with my memory.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annexation_of_Crimea_by_the_...

I shouldn't say Twitter sources do the exact opposite, however. Twitter is a "bullshit generator" in the way Harry Frankfort used the term. While there are many accounts on Twitter that appear to support observations in consensus reality (the sky is up, water is wet, fire is hot, Russia invaded Crimea, etc.), they are often drowned out by comments by people who don't care about the factual nature of their statements. They may say something that's externally falsifiable, or maybe they won't; demonstrable falsifiablity is not germane to their narrative. They're not actively lying, because lying involves a level of self awareness (and awareness of external reality) that they do not seem to possess.

Clearly it's not everyone on Twitter behaving this way, but enough of Twitter acts as a bullshit generator that it's hard to separate people who are right, wrong, duplicitous, ill informed or just plain spouting BS.

Amazing but the instruction fine-tuning is still a huge challenge for businesses since what is released cannot be used for commercial purposes. Instructions are much more useful.

I have a feeling that there are probably some people who will look at the "commercial okay" license for the first part and in their mind that will somehow make it okay to use the instruction-tuned ones for commercial purposes.

Maybe we don't really need Instruct stuff? Because it seems like its a huge amount of redoing work. I wonder if the OpenAssistant people will start building off of these models.
Tech rarely brings everyone up to the same level but rather empowers those with knowledge even further.

Basically writers now have tool that is as powerful as Google was to researchers.
