Wow, my eyes fully glazed over trying to just skim that article. Wikipedia has a rule about not over-using jargon, especially in highly technical articles. It looks like some expert attention is needed there to tone that down and translate all that to common English.

GPT-2's largest model was 1.5B params, LLama-65B was similar to the largest GPT3 in benchmark performance but that model was expensive in the API, a number of the people would use the cheaper one(s) instead IIRC.

So this is similar to a mid tier GPT3 class model.

Basically, there's not much reason to Pooh-Pooh it. It may not perform quite as well, but I find it to be useful for the things it's useful for.
> The reason I linked the split brain experiments is to show that what you think is the reason for making a decision, even if you "remember" the thought processes before can just be wrong. Asking one side to perform an action and asking the other side to explain the reason for performing the action ended up producing some really wild results.

"Can" just be wrong and "produces some" wild results, sure. In the previous comment were claiming they're always fabrications (as, I note, seems to be the case with GPT!), not just that they could be.

The fact that both GPT and the human brain can sometimes fabricate things similarly does not mean the human brain (or GPT for that matter) does this all the time, let alone that they do this equally frequently, or always to equal degrees. The studies might be showing surprising results, but you're greatly exaggerating what the studies actually show.

Highschool level questions aren't an issue for a bot trained specifically to answer such questions. A google search query could pass with flying colours.

I think the most important one listed there is the trust, if the employer/manager doesn’t trust you enough to do the work remotely, everything else will follow.
Is that risky?

There are something like 230 million licensed drivers.

So if I was the non-existent "average driver" with no control over risk, it seems to me I should expect a fatal accident roughly once every 100 lifetimes.

Or every 100 million miles.

I don't perceive the state of the art in autonomous driving as anywhere near that kind of reliability.
Scientists, too. Anyone, really; fail faster, people! Celebrate the process of trial and error.
Students found way to cheat exams before too, what is great about Chat GPT is that is a great tool for a student that actually wants to understand and learn. With Google you can find an answer, maybe a good explanation but with a good Chat AI you can ask back for details, paste your broken solution and ask for the AI to spot the problem and explain it to you.

I see that some teachers will no longer allow projects printed on paper, it needs to be written by hand to force the student to read the content, I think this is bad for some subjects where the student does not care about, they will just forget instantly what they wrote.

> It can never tell you the real reason why it made a mistake.

From my experience it can. Sometimes it writes the code and I have to point out that it produces a wrong result probably because of some function's behavior. GPT-4 can figure out the rest and fix it.

However, in general, it can go circles giving conflicting statements.
Erdogan is not a dictator.

* Turks are able to boo and mock and yell at him all day everyday in social media.

* The man won 15 elections in 20 years.

* Half of Turks voted for him today, and so did I.

* If he can be voted out, it’s not dictatorship.

The step up applies only to assets in one's estate at death, not assets in trust.

For the 2017 results I think it was disingenuous to ignore the "telephone industry" ranking when talking about "tech" in general. The "telephone industry" did improve its relative placement in the 2022 results.

I'm also uncertain as to how much of "television and radio industry" should be considered tech, or not.

A while back, I read an article about how most of the billions invested in crypto ICOs, over the last few years, simply disappeared, along with their creators. I'd like to know how this is different, but the article is behind a paywall.
I have replaced the pads on my Bose QuietComfort 35s 3 times in the last 6 years of wearing them almost daily. It's pretty easy to do.

The article made it click for me why they seem to care so much about you damaging your electronics lost in the seats.

Is there something about air travel that makes these batteries go or is it just a relatively uncommon thing that creates a common problem given the number of flights?
Except bots aren't like humans at all. They have no life experience. It's basically a text interface to a dictionary. A company can pay 100000 bots to spam your favorite messaging board with half baked propaganda, hate and advertisements. A human doesn't have that bandwidth, motivation, or interest.

An internet saturated by bots is like reading reviews on Amazon without pictures. Pointless, intentionally misleading, and often confidently wrong.

In depth reports like this are great.

One interesting thing I learned. There was a live russian language radio broadcast via the voice of america shortwave station. Now I am curious if there is a recording of this.
Memories are always part-fabrications.

Our brain store "key" moments it thinks it is important, then make up the rest of it. But this process is not really trustworthy on the finer details and is extremely receptive to any sort of suggestion because it simply doesn't have any factual data, so happily jumps to anything which seems to fit the narrative. This is especially true in scenarios where you experience strong emotions. Anything feels like to fit (like, someone paints a scenario which creates the same type of emotion) our brain just accepts it as a matter of fact and puts the puzzle in.

It's why implanting false memories is extremely easy and leading questions work so well. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_in_the_mall_technique

Anything that you remember from your life is mostly fabrications with a couple of actual memories used as a scaffolding, and your brain just built the rest of the structure around it - constantly changing it.
Math and language use different parts of the brain.

The progress recently has been with LLM. Great when you want to talk to your car or car needs to read street sign. Not useful if want to drive the car. It is possible that the techniques transfer over but self-driving is pretty different domain. My guess is that can share general techniques but the LLM breakthrough isn’t useful for self-driving.

It’s complicated. High base wages incentivize automation. Switzerland has much more extensive automation of basic labor then the us has. Higher wages also trickle up, a plumber demands 50/hr etc. jobs paying the base rate are rarely desirable from a social standpoint - social pressure provides an incentive to up skill/increase service standards.
it would be one thing if dishonest employees simply underperformed, but they also often suck up other people's time.

It sucks being a manager and pumping tons of time trying to get someone up to speed and not knowing if they just need more investment and support that will pay off or if they aren't reciprocating effort and working other jobs.

After being burned, my default is little compassion and investment in full remote employees. Ill train in office employees because I have more confidence I'm not wasting my time.

This is on top of the fact that multiple employment usually requires directly lying to your manager and coworkers, inflating task difficulty, or creating problems for others to slow the overall pace of a project.
You're right, I should have mentioned org-babel as the closest thing to something that would work for me.

I think most people would agree that the middle zone is not ideal for most drivers.

However, there may be no other way to someday reach level 5 for general driving, other than to live with that middle zone for a while (keeping in mind that it’s already safer than humans driving alone) in order to conduct the training needed to reach level 5.

You don’t just wish, or regulate, level 5 into existence. You need to build toward it by having real systems deployed in the real world. Those real systems are not going to be level 5 at first or even level 3. This is where we are today, for general driving we only have level 2 and some level 3 if that.

Training is needed not only for the systems but also for drivers (including other drivers in traditional vehicles, they are also being trained unwittingly) and pedestrians, and regulators. Everyone is learning here. It’s not just an overnight, snap of the fingers kind of thing.

You're in an enclosed tube with lots of people, so fire is a lot worse.

Most lithium ion battery fires in cabins are from loose vape batteries, probably shorting on keys or change.

Some are from crushing pouch cells in tablets or phones, sometimes by seats.

Besides that, there isn't anything about planes that is causing these fires.
Okay, this doesn't look as if they have done anything similar to what I proposed. Although the plugin (VoxScript) is not from OpenAI proper, they would be able to use quote tokens, if OpenAI provided them. Maybe implementing this is too much work currently relative to how big they perceive the problem to be.
No, thanks. The coding exams I've been in were either handwritten, or in a text field which loses focus every time you pess Tab. Both were a miserable experience and absolutely pointless.

How about this: test actual understanding instead of desperately making trivial tasks needlessly challenging.

Language is open-source
A) it's not a long list and B) it can be career limiting to speak poorly of anyone, so I don't think "no engineer has said bad things about him" is a fair assessment.

I dunno how many rooms with people like Elon you've been in, but people heap praise on people like that; it's free for them to do, and makes the Elon-type feel good about themselves, which materially impacts how much money those praisers have access to.

Once you get into the rank and file engineers, where the folks have a lot less to lose by speaking their mind, the praise has been much harder to come by, and you have incidents like at Twitter, where engineers called out Musk's apparent inability to comprehend Twitter's architecture, resulting in at least one heated exchange during a Twitter spaces chat.

I trust the celebrity engineers less than I trust the nameless engineers, at least when it comes to matters of PR.

Also, not for nothing, but if you haven't seen any negative comments about Elon from "celeb" engineers, you should probably look up the stuff Woz has said about Elon, it's not all positive, at all.
Epistemology 101. Statistical pattern matching has no epistemological truth beyond a correspondence of linguistic statistics.

It is merely statistical probability, which hardly can be classified as an epistemological basis. If we pretend for a moment it is, the ontologies formed are most certainly peculiar, and we can expect ideologies that emerge out of the ontologies are problematic.
As an educator, the way I’m responding to this is that the bar has been raised. Whatever ChatGPT can do is considered a C. If your responses are at ChatGPT level or above, you pass and can move on. If you can’t meet the bar set by ChatGPT, you will need to get to that level before moving on.
How would that even work separately from wayland compositor?

It's always a generational problem for progress in anything isn't it? When people are entrenched in certain ways it's nigh impossible to change anything, especially when there's no gain for them personally. Real changes happen only when the current incumbents gradually die off. This is probably one of the main reasons mortality was evolutionarily selected for: easier adaptation to changing environments.

It's become glaringly apparent in the last century with progress vastly outpacing generational swaps. Old geezers in charge, trying to control a world they don't fundamentally understand anymore.
Nah. Western media and Turkish leftists call it a dictatorship. Think about it, half of the Turkish media and people are ABLE TO call it a dictatorship, is this a dictatorship? It’s not even near a one-man regime. Western media is hallucinating whatever fits their narratives.

My favorite teacher, for math would give us a paper with soem optional homework math problems, we would xerox the paper and we will try at hoem to solve them, then next day we would ask each other how X or Y was solved, compare results, we would teach each other. And only the hard problems that we could not solve we would ask the teacher to show us the solution.

What is weird is that 4 years later my brother was in a class at the same teacher and the atmosphere was completely different, nobody was working on optional stuff, nobody was asking questions, nobody was offering to go to the blackboard and participate. It was same teacher, same school , same level of smart students. Not sure if maybe there is one ot two students that with their enthusiasm or the opposite can cause this drastic change.
I've wondered how long it will take for them to put an emergency fireproof bag behind/under every seat. Surely it's worth the expense. Maybe they'll do something when it one day costs more in bad PR.
>Of all the absolute horseshit in the article, the most obviously wrong is saying that "tech doesn't play both sides of the political aisle". So obviously wrong if you look at any single company. Just recently, we saw how FTX was lobbying hard for both sides.

>And there absolutely has been a backlash against tech. Ask any Facebook employee how people react when they say where they work.

I don't know firsthand, but the impression I've gotten, especially more recently, from silicon valley is that Facebook and Zuckerberg is the sacrificial goat the rest of the industry hopes to lay their sins on and drive into the desert. How much of the hatred for facebook employees is perpetuated, or at least was seeded, by tech itself rather than the general population? Do Uber employees get the same reaction? More politically apples-to-apples, do Google, or specifically Youtube, employees? If not, could it be because they use Facebook to distract from their own actions the rest of America wouldn't approve of if they were more in the media spotlight, and didn't have the scapegoat to point to?
The real theme of the article was how social, outgoing, and successful this guy was, and how much this guy was liked by his friends and "friends." For some reason the WSJ wants to paint it with a patina of DRUGS.

The second to last problem has a correct reasoning but an incorrect answer. 50×0.008-10×(1-0.008) = -9.52, instead of -0.2.

One flaw of transformer models is that, while they are able to provide good approximations of additions and small multiplications, they are unable to handle more complex formulae and functions, yet will provide an answer. They should really be fine-tuned to use an external calculator, which hopefully plugins will normalize.
That's all fine, but if the claim is really "I cannot know which exact neurons were firing at some moment in the past" (that's what time-travel debugging would be), that's not a particularly insightful or useful statement. I'm pretty sure I can reconstruct some states of my brain for some moments in the past sufficiently adequately to be able to explain my reasoning in that moment without fabricating anything. The claim was that this is always impossible for all humans, which seems quite obviously false, and in any case, unsupported by the studies linked.
Maybe it uses a different epistemology?
I think the point was that some students might substitute ChatGPT understanding for their own.
> I wish the other side would break up too.

At least in recent years independents (in Congress) have caucused with Democrats, but not Republicans. This is evidence that the Dems are slightly broken up already.

To get more fine-grained, each party has sub-divisions (e.g. "Freedom Caucus" in the Republican party). The real problem is that these sub-divisions basically don't cross over to allying with the other party on particular issues. If they ever do do that, and do it consistently (not as one-off decisions from individual representatives) then the US will effectively have a more than two party system.

But even if that happens, the actual people getting elected will almost always only have an R or a D after their name. First past the post, as it is done in the US, can't really sustain more than two competitive parties.
> We may never know the actual reason, but we can speculate

Democracy manifest.

> a probability model could be created from all of these radar returns

So.. we built a weapon system who's utility is immediately reduced by the amount of time it spends in proximity to enemy radar systems? Then, we tried to use that same weapon system's manufacturing base as a means to create worldwide political allies?

And now.. because the friend of our friend is maybe some sort of enemy, we have to pull the plug on this ally?

And so.. military analysts blithely "support" this. Sounds like they're providing some exceptionally shallow analysis in that very simplistic conclusion.

> There are professional military analysts with more informed opinions than mine.

No doubt. I'm sure their analysis is more designed to benefit their sector than it is to actually inform any of us.
