No, because NVidia has to work for all the models. Nvidia has other constraints that they need to have for users like instructions, security etc. which openai doesn't have.

e.g. As they have a fixed model which they know they would get billions of request to, they could even work with analogue chip which is significantly cheaper and faster for inference. [1] could achieve 10-100x flops/watt for fixed models compared to nvidia for their first gen chip.

I don't think that premise really matters.

You could sincerely believe that murder was ok, but that's not going to change how the law would view you murdering someone.

The idea around "piercing the corporate veil" is that you can't just slap a company in front of your actions -- regardless of whether or not you believe your actions are justified or legal -- and avoid legal consequences.

* Press speak button on the steering wheel, speak the query (via car microphone), hear answer via car stereo system with UI response rendered on cars' screen while having the ability to actually control apps on your phone which can then render on car screen.

* Yell at your phone over the car noise and only hear response via audio link and have no ability to control the infotainment system or apps on the phone.

Those are equivalent for you? :D

I have some friends where the Mom is Taiwanese and the Father is Peruvian. They have a one and a half year old daughter. The father only speaks Spanish to her and the mother only speaks Chinese to her. But neither parent speaks the other’s language, so they talk to each other in English and all their friends and neighbors only speak English. So far the kid seems to prefer Chinese.
Yeah my perception of this is Swagger is old OpenAPI, so I would probably put OpenAPI front and center and just note that you also support Swagger?
Sure, randomly generating axioms would probably not be very productive, most of the time you will continue from known territory, generalize something, add additional constraints, whatever. And if that is what you mean with discovery, identifying things that might be interesting to change in one way or another, fine, that is not an unreasonable description of the process. But you are still inventing a new structure when you decide what to change and write down the new rules. If you have the naturals, you might wonder what would happen if there was an inverse of addition or of multiplication for each natural, if you pick the former you will invent the integers, if you pick the later the non-negative rationals. You can also call that a discovery if you like, but it is not a discovery in the sense of say discovering the electron, you did not discover something that has always been there, you actually brought it into existence by the choices you made.
Here supermarkets are associated with large car parks.
I think it really comes down to the proximity to areas that speak that language. I can travel 100s of miles in every direction from my home in the US and only find English speakers. If there was a town that spoke Spanish 50 miles away, I may consider picking it up. Not many Europeans speak Chinese, why do you think that is?

It all depends on what you're looking for in your gaming. I rarely replay old games. I'm often on the go, and don't really want to spend the money on a high end gaming rig nor a console at home. So from my non-gaming laptop I can hop on Xbox Cloud Gaming and play recent games in high quality pretty much anywhere. I've been able to play on cafe wifi, tethered to my phone, on wifi around the house, loads of places. And after finding the subscription on a sale its cheaper than buying even two new games a year.

If you're the kind of gamer who does love having a collection of old games you go back to, then yeah its pretty terrible.
Not sure what do you mean with "pure" INS. Primary INS is still standard - as in, all the navigation is driven primarily from INS system outputs.

But, as it always was, it is regularly corrected with GNSS or navaid corrections. As far as I know most airliners still don't automatically enter corrections for INS and require manual input (basically retyping of GNSS data from a screen into a keypad) to put human into the loop which can verify if GNSS is being spoofed. The pilots can alternatively do the correction using VOR/DME navaids or even their eyes if they feel like it.

As far as I know, it's becoming much more common to have INS with ability to automatically correct drift from GNSS in smaller planes (and I'm sure that will make it to airliners sooner than later).
Yeah, that’s part of the game though. You can’t get perfection from modelling a complex system with the (relatively) few variables that you can actually measure. Assumptions are always evolving, and are always going to be broken at some point or another.

That’s the opening line, right? Uncertainty is a fact of life. With time series forecasts, the best you can ever hope to do is give probability bounds, and even then you can only really do so by either:

- limiting by the rules of the game (e.g. the laws of physics, or the rules of a stock exchange)

- using past data

The former is only useful if you’re the most risk averse person on the planet, and the latter is only useful if you are willing to assume the past is relevant.
Honestly, there's a bunch of games where cloud gaming could really help the cheating problem. The issue with it is that if you're a ways away from the cloud servers it puts you at more of a disadvantage.

Then again, for a lot of these games you currently get some level of advantage for throwing a lot of money at your system so you can run with better settings at a faster framerate, so maybe it's not so much less fair as differently fair.

Having your competitive game reduced to pure input output doesn't solve cheating (especially in an age of image recognition and trained AI/ML), but it does even the playing field a lot.

First, RF emissions from phones really don't affect airplane equipment. They haven't for a long time, if they ever have.

Airplane mode is one of those things that sticks around because people think it's important and they expect it. It doesn't really help airplanes, it's more of a general "disable radios" mode now.

Typically airplane mode does turn off all radios in your device, but modern devices allow you to turn WiFi or Bluetooth back on while keeping the cell radio turned off.

I think the reasoning here is that while in a plane, your phone will try really hard to find a cell tower to connect to. The output power of the radio will get turned up to max, which ends up being a lot more RF power being sent out than your WiFi or Bluetooth radio puts out. Hypothetically this can interfere with safety-critical electronics in the plane, but in reality those systems are incredibly robust and very well shielded.
There is an "undernutrition" hypothesis.

Back in the day when we were all doing enough work (men, women, children) to need over twice our base-metabolic-rate number of calories per day, and eating whole foods, particularly red and white offal and leafy greens like collard and beet greens, steamed and roasted, we got enough of these mesonutrients and micronutrients.

Twice your BMR is about 5000 Cal/day for an adult male. You need to do eight hours' physical work (shoveling, threshing, chopping, sawing, lifting, doing the laundry by hand, etc.) to burn off the extra.

Now, the hypothesis says, we are deficient in many of these nutrients because we simply do not eat enough food, only 2500 Cal/day and a lot of that is from vegetable oils and low-nutrient animal fats.

I have no investment in the hypothesis. Just reporting it.

Edit: Vegemite and Marmite are high in vitamin B1. Possibly Bovril also. Spread it thinly on your toast and grill it.
GP didn't say it was an exhaustive list.

You claimed "the Constitution is an explicit grant of powers to the government (reserving anything else to the people), not an explicit grant of rights to the people", to which they responded that a lot of the Bill of Rights is an explicit protection of specific rights to people (such as in the First and Fourth Amendments [among others]; what rights are being granted the government in those amendments?)
When Product Markets Become Collective Traps: The Case of Social Media

> LLMs have no understanding of the underlying reality that language describes.

LLMs absolutely have concepts that extend beyond just words. As early as 2008 (back when there were no large language models, only "regular" language models), we've been able to demonstrate things that seem to me like the model is learning abstract concepts. For a classic example, see Linguistic Regularities in Continuous Space Word Representations [0], a 2013 paper that talks about a model with a latent space where one can take the vector representations of the words "king", "queen", "man", and "woman" and literally perform the arithmetic `king - (man - woman) ≈ queen`. To me, this clearly demonstrates that the model "understands" the concept of gender, represented by a vector in the model's latent space. The set of numbers that you get from the subtraction `man - woman` represent the concept of the difference between the male and female genders, without needing a specific word tied to that representation of the concept.

It's debatable whether or not that counts as "understanding", but that's more of a semantic debate about what it means to understand, not a debate about the model's internal knowledge of the world and ability to do things with that knowledge.

I have not experienced this. I bought my first smart phone last year and I literally just use it for voice and text. Could this be a big city thing? I saw someone mention paying for parking lots but they are all free in the town not far from me. There's no public transit here.

I'm very likely going back to a flip phone, probably something like a CAT unless there is a tougher one that works on T-Mobile.

Yep, I knew of clean-room reimplementations, I was just wondering whether decompiling is somehow in itself illegal.
Diffusion based image generation is a kind of ‘reversing the embedding’, right?

The iterative error correction applied here almost feels like repeated noise reduction, too.

So does this mean you could use this sort of text recovery to do the same kinds of things image diffusers do, traversing the latent space and recovering images along a path - but instead recovering text that morphs?

Could we finally use this to discover the text that lies exactly halfway between the Declaration of Independence and the lyrics of ‘Baby Got Back’?

I guess not until it scales to more than 32 tokens. But we can dream.

NCMEC’s database is smaller and infrequently updated, but Facebook’s database is much larger and more actively updated. This is also one of the reasons that Facebook/Meta produces many more reports than other providers who use the NCMEC database. Governments view the limited reach of the NCMEC database as a problem, and are encouraging providers to use more complete databases and to develop tools to detect novel CSAM (this is included in the EU proposed regulations.)

“Further scrutiny” here means your images are reported to a provider, which (at that point) means your provider has a list of reports that defeat the guarantees of E2E encryption. The threat model looks something like this: https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/former-twitter-employee-found...

Polynesians were among the greatest navigators in world history and didn't reach the eastern Pacific until many thousands of years later. It's like pointing to Alex Honnold to argue that ancient people climbed cliffs instead of walking around. Yeah, it's physically possible but there's a hell of a lot of skill, knowledge, and technology that goes into supporting those physical feats.

Besides, Polynesians are genetically distant from the oldest DNA we've recovered in the Americas, which universally points to a northeastern Asian origin for early Americans.

Brit here, mid 40s.

Many Brits were taught a second language at school (11-16, some starting earlier) but there was very little opportunity to use it outside school, so most did the bare minimum and never continued with it.

I learned French and German at school but they are both very rusty. I’ve since picked up very rusty Spanish. All 3 enough to survive in bars/restaurants and find my way around a new place (eventually) but getting better is on my big long list of things to do.

What I heard was that some people have mutations that impair digestion (absorption requires some cellular machinery) or in other cases the utilization of B1.

Apparently the mechanisms for absorbing it depend on having sufficient B1, and can get "stuck" in a deficient mode if you went through a period of deficiency, which can then be "unblocked" (kickstarted) with a megadose.

Take this with a grain of salt, it's supposedly based in research, but I didn't check any papers about it yet.

I've used Xbox Cloud Gaming on a cheap $300 Walmart laptop all over my home on WiFi, several different cafe/bar WiFi networks, and several places tethered to my phone without any real playability concerns. I might not recommend it if you're playing some kind of twitch shooter kind of game, but I've played a lot of Forza, Starfield, Gotham Knights, and Ghost Recon Wildlands on it.

That's a really fair use case acknlowedging personal preference to interpret how you like it.

I find some of the built in services on clouds are just open source libraries that are packaged up to increase tie in to that platform.

Wow, just learned from the post about OPOL [0], didn't know it was a thing, but at least in our case it worked for 3 languages.
