Yeah, that sounds like a GPT-3.5 problem to me. I wouldn't trust 3.5 to write me an Nginx config, but I'd give 4 a shot at it.

I just tried using GPT-4 to translate a random htaccess file I found to nginx and it seemed to do a good initial job: https://gist.github.com/simonw/8174f653a0c08c120830c56332054...
Absolutely. Years ago I made what is essentially a Unix time / Maya Long Count converter and I was very pleased with how similar they were in concept (i.e. counting seconds or days from a particular epoch) with the only major difference being the base 10 vs base 20.

i wonder if this is a result of the GPT part (i.e. the distribution of 'next tokens' is such that it tends to be logically coherent), or the RLHF part (i.e. it tends to steer the GPT to logical coherence)
what are the reasons?

Do you have to use bags or do just do it because you've always done it?

We have similar recycling setup in Germany. I don't use bags for any of them.
Why would you need chance? It's applying the same parameters/algorithms to the same problem. As far as I understand you have to prompt it to provide more novel answers to the questions and there's some randomness built into the model so it doesn't sound like a broken record. This is is how it's supposed to work. Why do you consider this evidence of state?

In my high school (literally a Latin school) you could hear Latin spoken in the corridor, but I'm pretty sure never by any student, unless put on the spot by a teacher! So yes, it was technically a spoken language, but without gainsaying the author's point.
It’s not possible to ‘unlawfully do lobbying’ if by definition lobbying is ‘the act of lawfully …’. You are describing the second option, it’s just a practice that does not agree with your personal preference.

You appear to have strong ideas about politics. Arguing on forums gets them nowhere, you can either preach to the choir or try to convince people who will never change their mind. If you want to change things, get involved in the political process yourself.

I don't think so. Lack of workers means you cannot e.g. produce all the goods you want to produce. This will result in less goods being sold -> recession. So basically the lack of workers could be understood as a potential to grow but if you cannot satisfy the demand for workers it will have the opposite effect.

The logical thing for any locality is then to build one million units and sell them for a million dollars each. Since the supply elasticity of price is zero in this model, the locality can amass a trillion dollars easily.

At this point, armed with the resources of nations, it can do many things - perhaps buy out an entire island nation, perhaps end wars. If the money is insufficient, sell a billion homes, and now you have a quadrillion dollars.

With that kind of money, this locality could simply acquire entire other nations and transform them into papercli- I mean investment properties.

This is the wrong attitude. This is victim blaming. Expecting ordinary people to understand the bewildering array of plastic types, biofilms and composite materials is not realistic. Add to that deceptive packaging (like the infamous green triangle that doesn't mean it's recyclable at all). The solution is to tackle it at the source of all this waste. Tax the shit out of supermarkets and shops that sell non recyclable packaging.
A lot of this can be solved by using clever prompting and allowing the LLM to use external tools - see the ReAct paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.03629

> the researchers looked for centimeter-scale bumps caused by the gravitational influence of a seamount

Remarkable and even puzzling on two counts:

1) Gravity is so weak at human scales we tend to forget that each and every body leaves a gravitational imprint. Yet a mountain sized mass creates detectable influence.

2) Centimeter-sized height sea level differences are detectable from space. Pressumably this integrates over long periods of wave "noise" and tidal swells that are significantly higher than a centimeter...
A better option here would be to use `_mm_movemask_epi8`, for the vector:

```
{ false, false, false, false, true, false, false, true }
```

It will give an int with the bits: `0b0000_1001`

You can then do `@clz` to get the index of the first set bit.

That would save you the `@reduce` and `@splat`. I don't see how to access move mask from Zig, however.

Note that the standard library has `std.zig.firstIndexOfValue`, which does what you have in the post, basically. And there is `std.zig.firstTrue`, which does the the same thing as `@clz` in this case, but I don't know what kind of assembly it will generate.

I'm confused, "random chance" ...?

If you're giving it words from a sentence it is literally the baseline functionality of the text generator to choose the most likely next token, IE to recreate the most likely sentence from the words given.

This couldbe the least meaningfully revealing task I could possibly think of trying if I were trying to find some inner monologue, if gpt had to "think" on anything this would never be it.
Having no priors or model, any random yes/no outcome is 50:50.
'aware' and 'knows' is a lot of anthropomorphizing. there is nothing in the model suggesting that it 'does' anything with some agency, as it is built like a clockwork. It literally doesnt move unless it is provided with input.
> it isn't worth it. Neglecting the people in your life that love you in the pursuit of "science" is no different than neglecting them because you have a drug habit or because you're an inveterate gambler or because you're chasing fame and fortune.

It depends; the neglect during studies is a temporary thing! All thos other things you mention are permanent things!

There's very little similarity between "temporarily neglecting family to provide better opportunities to my kids"[1] and "permanently neglecting family to get a high".

[1] Make no mistake, you can introduce your kids to better opportunities in a your social circle of Phds (or MBAs, etc) than your social circle of whoever your current colleagues are.
This is what gets peddled across the world, but for the most part, Soviet Union eas busy creating those national identities. Sometimes it took a break when it became too inconvenient, only to resume it later. Soviet Union is who created these national states in the first place. There were no Georgia and no Uzbekistan before the USSR. In both cases there were a bunch of unaligned tribes or much smaller principalities with no real national identity.
Stop voting capitalists that only care about shareholders and treat the workforce as disposable, then. Tax the damn rich and use that money for public spending. It's not that hard.
It does operate on tokens but they added the capability to handle things like reversing a string. I tried it because it was supposed to not work but it does. It also gives an explanation of how it works. (Something like yes I normally use tokens ...)

By the same token (hehe) it should proably handle number of tokens fine.
No, it's not uptodate. But it's probably good enough to learn about basic concepts. For the devices you're talking about, you'll need to learn about device trees (didn't exist in 2001 at all in Linux), power management, etc.

I think I see your point and agree to certain extent; it is not about the breast size. Even if you see the splash screen from a distance where you can't specifically focus on the body parts, the image itself is reminiscent of typical explicit anime/manga involving young girls (even if there isn't anything particularly NSFW about the image itself). So yes, the potential/implicit connotations can certainly make someone and their co-workers uncomfortable.
Why wouldnt you build this on Linux?
> One rule of thumb I've developed: if something is likely to be "common knowledge" - if it's something that is likely to have been discussed accurately on the internet by many different people - then ChatGPT is very likely to answer questions about it accurately.

If so, this information is already easy to find, making GPT redundant.

As others mentioned, Tesseract is SOTA in FOSS OCR. It also still is being developed, improving slow but constantly.

The main issue for a use-case like NormCap are the trained models: they are optimized for images of _printed_ text and layouts, which is different from on-screen-text in many aspects. Unfortunately, I don't have the resources to train my own models.

Cuneiform was a long time competitor, but afaik development there is stalled.
In an economy based on growth that means however, investors still expect more money each year.

And that money has to come from somewhere. So either your population grows, so the more work is distributed better on more shoulders or you try to educate them better to increase the quality of the corporations etc.

But the fact that our economies expect constant growth has consequences for everything else
This is my approach.
Von Braun knew that if you didn't ask questions, your government might just give you Jewish forced labor for your rocket plant, which you'd gladly accept.

The argument against GraphQL in this article (and the article is linked to) is hand-wavy. It just says GraphQL is not secure without going into why and the example is: exposing a field on a record that you shouldn’t - which can happen in REST too! Especially if you are implementing something like JSON API includes[0]. After building frontend for 8 years GraphQL seems like the most scalable solution if you have a large dynamic frontend app. The approach of coupled server (whether it’s htmx or Remix or Rails for that matter) works as well but as the article mentions it makes you build another API for any other client.

GPs question still stands. Changing the character of policy and enforcement doesn't turn automatically reading license plates into illegal search. At least there isn't any obvious logical way to come to that conclusion. Do you care to point it out?
There have been plenty of times I did not have change for the tolls and was poor enough that the fine would come out of my grocery budget. I would pull over, cover my plate, run the toll, take the next exit, then uncover the plate.

Will any explanation do? Sounds like you are limiting your scope to super narrow boundaries.
Why would bilingualism be a defense? Try throwing ChatGPT or whatever a line which combines several languages. e.g., If you ask it “¿Quel est the resultado of 四*6.1, in inglese?”, it will probably reply “4 times 6.1 equals 24.4.” I suppose AI doesn’t think in words, but expects bits of information to be related to X meaning, and from there it can predict a reply and translate that information into words we understand. I haven’t tried the above line, but if it’s not possible already there’s nothing really stopping us from making it work soon enough.

Edit: sorry, maybe I’m misunderstanding. Are you talking more about multilingual people thinking more abstractly, which would make it harder to tie information to any specific words?
Seems to me that there’s only a very short jump between having a monologue at all, and having an inner monologue. Small children go through a similar stage where they repeat speech back with increasing fidelity, then after several million years of subjective listener time they finally learn to “use their inside voice.”

(Don’t worry, I’m not equating the two… but this pathway does work.)
In a world with finite resources, and capacity to care prioritization goes a long way. This is why a huddle of engineers is just chaos sans a Product manager.
While Zig doesn't support this automatically, I think there's a path towards this thanks to comptime support. For example:

const std = @import("std");

fn f(comptime width: comptime_int, value: i32) i32 {
const v = @splat(width, @as(i32, value));
return @reduce(.Add, v);
}

pub fn main() !void {
std.debug.print("1={d}\n", .{f(1, 5)});
std.debug.print("2={d}\n", .{f(2, 5)});
std.debug.print("4={d}\n", .{f(4, 5)});
}

Here it creates 3 different versions of the function f at compile time, and then calls them each in succession. Running it prints:

1=5
2=10
4=20

In practice you'd need to set up a dispatch that chooses the function based on the hardware, and ensure that zig/LLVM are actually using the full width of the vectors when compiling.
Not even tinkering, KDE has this builtin.
We certainly cannot comprehend the entire thing at the same time. ”XAI” is a bit of a buzzword right now and every HCI researcher struggling with finding their grip have jumped on the hype boat, meaning lots of them will just say things because it sounds nice to people with even less knowledge of NNs as them.

However, to think we cannot comprehend them at all is too much. We can certainly ”query” a NN to understand the weights and activations that led to some decision in some specific scenario. How to consume and use that information is another matter, of course, but a debugging process is certainly feasible (as it is with any large scale computer system).

Plus, the architectures of neural networks are not as complicated as most people think. Sure it gets weird after training, but the basic architecture of components are not nearly as complicated as the hardware of a GPU for example, or even that of a complex OS kernel.
Just for the record: Mastodon is not a network, but a server app. The network is the Fediverse and the dominant protocol (currently) is W3C ActivityPub.
I don't think this is about being a scapegoat.. the Greens always had on their agenda to shut down nuclear power completely. I think in the 70ies to 80ies and later there was a big movement that protested a lot against nuclear power (Atomkraft? Nein danke!).

And recently they pushed forward to close down the last 3 reactors even though we might have troubles with our energy supply in the near future.
Well . . . any time someone offers me two options . . . I know there's at least one lie involved. How many dichotomies are not false dichotomies, after all?

> The central feature that distinguishes the REST architectural style from other network-based styles is its emphasis on a uniform interface between components.

Well, no. What distinguishes REST is that it uses HTTP verbs on resources.

And then it talks about Fielding mostly-not-implemented stuff and . . . no. Just no.

Before we've even gotten to the end of the para about coupling, it's clearly a bunch of crap.

Which is too bad, because personally I think REST is garbage, but CRUD garbage meant to replace SOAP "what is that thing?" garbage.
In your opinion, do you think that the microkernel approach is more secure? (Should processes run as separate users with separate SELinux contexts like Android 4.4+)

But a few tens of hours is very little versus the quite literally thousands of hours spent running a server for 8 years and using plugins on it. Truth be told, I think even if a Minecraft world was literally a blank base plate and it was digital collaborative LEGO, it still would have been a hit.

I guess the thing with Minecraft is that it was many different things to different people. Some people loved "Hunger Games" style worlds/modes on servers, others like single player mods, or even just vanilla Minecraft.

Couldn’t a possible solution to “prompt injection attacks” be to train/fine-tune a separate specialised model to detect them?

I personally think a lot of these problems with GPT-like models are because we are trying to train a single model to do everything. What if instead we have multiple models working together, each specialised in a different task?

E.g. With ChatGPT, OpenAI trained a single model to meet competing constraints, such as “be safe” versus “be helpful”. Maybe it would perform better with a separate model focused on safety, used to filter the inputs/outputs of the “be helpful” model?

Maybe you can never build a foolproof “prompt injection detector”. But, if you get it good enough, you then offer a bounty program for false negatives and use that to further train it. And realistic/natural false positives can be reported, human-reviewed and approved as harmless, and then fed back into the feedback loop to improve the model too. (I think contrived/unrealistic false positives, where someone is asking something innocent in a weird way just to try to get a false positive, aren’t worth responding to.)
