<rant>We need an AI-generated encyclopedia - not for us, but for AI. It should have a trillion articles covering all known entities and concepts, written using RAG over the web. Controversial topics should report the controversy or the distribution of opinions. We can put this big synthetic text corpus in the training set of future models.

Why? Because AI needs long form, in-depth texts to train on, and the web doesn't provide it in sufficient quantity and quality. We need chain-of-thought to capture relations between concepts in explicit language. Synthetic data makes it possible to have balanced coverage of topics and combinatorial coverage of skills to improve reasoning. It's also better from a copyright stand point to train models on synthetic data.</>
I think while you are technically correct it isn't really meaningful. The optimizer isn't allow to change the guaranteed semantics of the program. The rule isn't that there is no observable difference between unoptimized and optimized because what would that even mean? What is the baseline? You could just as easily say that the optimized version is correct and the optimized one is "wrong"? As long as both versions don't break the semantics of the language there is nothing that would make the optimized version "more correct" than the other one. If my compiler puts a thousand nop instructions between every line of code that would also "change program semantics" according to your strict definition, but no one would ague that it is an invalid compiler.
Minmaxing in almost any game is excruciatingly unfun though, it's not unique to Pokemon. I can't think of a faster way to kill the enjoyment of any game than to try to minmax.
California went from around 85% white European to 35% in roughly a generation (from 1960s to today). Statewide, only 20% of California students are white so their numbers will continue to decline for the foreseeable future.

The US is a melting pot culture and people accept these changes, but there’s no reason that European cultures need to replicate this in their own countries.
Judging by the tourists around here, you can't claim to have been somewhere unless you have a selfie that shows you standing in front of [$FAMOUS_MONUMENT]. That selfie is much more important than actually inspecting the thing.

They'll take these selfies in front of any damn building - a brick-clad concrete lawyer's office built in the 90s, even a souvenir shop-window. If you're determined to be a tourist, at least look.

I've been using Kagi [0] since a few months and I am extremely surprised how well it works. With DDG it took a few months and then I just added !g everywhere because I never found what I was looking for. With Kagi I almost never do that, every now and then I think I am not able to find what I expect and then I add !g, so far it hasn't given me more then what Kagi gives me.

So, I am wondering how much money you would really need. Because if Kagi can do it, why can't Bing do it?

>Spoiler alert, most chargers were broken or had queues to use

Right. At peak season(summer and winter holidays around Christmas and NYE) even gas stations have long ques for gasoline along the popular European highway routes like Austria, Italy, Croatia, etc. meaning a fill up can take 20+ minutes sometimes.

I can't imagine what it would be with EV charging spots at those times. You're out of juice, looking for a 30 minute quick charge and there's others already waiting in line for their 30 minute quick charge. You might as well spend the night there because you're getting home today.

Range anxiety and the lack of abundant charging infra is still a huge issue for most families when they choose not to go EV yet for their single do-it-all car. It seems to work for Nordics and Benelux countries that have high incomes and invested heavily in infrastructure, but most of the EU is still far behind.
An AGI will likely be scared of even more powerful AGI's that it itself cannot control.

As an OpenAI employee in this scenario, my thought process would involve carefully considering the perspectives of both Ilya and the board, recognizing the importance of ethical AI development and the potential risks associated with AGI. Here's a breakdown of my thought process:

1. Understanding Ilya's Concerns:
I would seek to understand Ilya's concerns about AI commercialization and the perceived departure from OpenAI's original mission. This involves analyzing how commercialization may impact the ethical considerations of AI and assessing whether the current trajectory aligns with OpenAI's founding principles.

2. Assessing AGI Risks:
I would acknowledge the board's concerns about AGI and its potential threats to humanity. Understanding the risks associated with AGI is crucial, and I would consider how OpenAI can actively contribute to addressing these concerns through responsible research and development practices.

3. Balancing Ethical Considerations and Financial Stability:
Recognizing the financial realities of sustaining a cutting-edge research organization, I would consider how to strike a balance between ethical considerations and the need for financial resources. This might involve proposing guidelines for responsible commercial partnerships, ensuring that ethical considerations are at the forefront of any business decisions.

4. Advocating for Dialogue and Collaboration:
Rather than taking an adversarial approach, I would advocate for open and constructive dialogue between Ilya, the board, and other stakeholders. Collaborative discussions can help identify common ground, address concerns, and work towards a solution that aligns with OpenAI's mission.

5. Promoting Responsible AI Development:
Emphasizing the importance of responsible AI development, I would propose initiatives and policies that actively contribute to ensuring the safe and ethical use of AI technology. This might include participating in industry-wide discussions on AGI safety and advocating for best practices.

6. Considering the Broader Impact:
I would weigh the potential impact of various decisions on the broader AI community, OpenAI's reputation, and its ability to contribute meaningfully to the field. Striking a balance between principles and pragmatism is crucial for the long-term success and influence of OpenAI.

7. Expressing Willingness to Collaborate:
In any communication with the board or colleagues, I would express a genuine willingness to collaborate and find solutions that address concerns on both sides. Building consensus and maintaining a shared commitment to OpenAI's mission would be a priority.

Ultimately, my goal would be to contribute to a resolution that upholds OpenAI's values, maintains its reputation as a leader in ethical AI, and ensures its continued impact on the development of artificial intelligence for the benefit of humanity
Ugh, I'm just skimming this but it sounds like quick forwarding syntax in Ruby went through a mess of hiccups in development, which is sad, because I think the obsession with C/C++ as the gold standard of language development for so long really held the industry back. I love languages that offer convenient forwarding - the verbosity of forwarding in traditionalist C/C++-style programming languages is imho a big source of the horrible abuses of inheritance. Such a shame it's mostly provided in languages that are too dynamic-typed for my tastes.

> It’s already illegal to drink and drive. Now you want it to be illegal to modify vehicles?

I mean, it's hardly without precedent. You can't remove your license plate, you can't remove the seatbelts, you can't remove the muffler, you can't remove the catalytic converter, you can't remove the side or rear view mirrors. My state requires an annual inspection to confirm these things are all in place and working.

> Who do I get to sue when I can’t bring my dad to the hospital because he had a heart attack after I had a glass of wine.

General advice is that if it warrants drunk driving, it warrants a 911 call for an ambulance.
You’re being pedantic (rightfully so) and I’m being loose with words. While Dojo is the supercomputer Tesla built for vision training, I lumped anything contributing to their machine vision model training as Dojo. It’s called Dojo because that’s where the training takes place.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Dojo

From the History section (although Technical Architecure is also worthy of consuming in its entirety):

> In August 2023, Tesla powered on Dojo for production use as well as a new training cluster configured with 10,000 Nvidia H100 GPUs.

I’ll take the L wrt being flippant if we’re using words very specifically in this context, that’s fair. It’s great to see Tesla expand its training resources is my sentiment, regardless of how their aggregate ML compute is segmented.
Awww. "Please don't leave me! I bring you gifts!"

I was just looking at my phone while walking down the street, not even playing Pokémon Go, and a group of people on the other side called out and said, "Hey, there's a Poliwhirl just up the road there." I felt like I had entered into a new, bizarre, wonderful social reality.

Isn't "slow steaming" just what passenger airplanes do with cruising speed? There's an optimal point on the speed/fuel consumption curve that minimizes fuel use, and this is what ships are doing, isn't it? Or is there some other consideration for ships that makes the slow steam speed optimal beside fuel consumption?

> Many would answer as high as 95%, but the correct probability is about 2%.

Your system would be orders of magnitude less effective than you are imagining. It's a common enough mistake that it has its own example on that wikipedia page.

You really want to mandate a system where something like 98% of the calls to police would be false positives? Who will pay for all these extra officers who do nothing but drive around the city freeing innocent, sober people from their cars all day?

The seat belt situation is fine, because:

1. Your car doesn't refuse to drive if you don't wear one (such as on private property where it's legal to drive, drunk, with no seatbelt, if you choose)

2. Your car won't hold you hostage for hours if some AI algorithm makes a mistake. The seatbeat detector is 100% accurate under normal conditions and if it fails, the worst thing that can happen is your car will beep at you.
Oh and it'll all be fine as you could get a grant and you don't need to worry about money or your kids or any of that stuff, and no one who failed at all this or ended up on the streets because of it will write a blog post and point out that it's absolutely unrealistic and flat out stupid.

Thank god it'll fail to get traction.

Many ISPs have been receiving boatloads of government subsidies to build out infrastructure, and they have very little to show for it. There is no reason to believe this would be any different.
They didn't. It's just their way of showing sympathy.

The OP may not find the prayer itself practical, as indeed many on the planet mightn't, but the expression doesn't assume so. Common secular expressions like "Sending good thoughts" or "I feel you" are just immaterial and seemingly ineffectual but similarly get across the point that someone has slowed down long enough to show care.
Precisely this

This is a legit problem when including screenshots in a document. The worst is when there's a screenshot of a video player, with a big play button on the thumbnail. Your brain just wants to click it and doesn't understand why it won't play.

So please, when you're including screenshots, put a border around it, or an overlay, or a caption, anything that helps make it clear this is just a still image and not an active control!
as a US taxpayer, this is an offensive comment that implies entire "secret service" compute facilities, source code and data sources. The USA was founded by people who had experienced the end games of this -- government data is PUBLIC and secret service can come back to congress and the courts each year to be reviewed. The cell phone debacle has emboldened "secret service" pension collectors with dreams of grandeur ? Peter Thiel is the new savoir ? I vote.

I think you might be confusing sprint review with sprint retrospective? What you describe is the sprint retrospective, and when teams are autonomous enough to actually act on their pain points, it's easily the most useful scrum ceremony, IMHO.

Sprint reviews are really kinda just a wankfest where people show nice graphs and demos for an audience that either already knows or doesn't care.

Don't make language features that use three-dot-ellipsis as a keyword. Just like don't make a language where "Hello world" is a special string with special significance, or where variables named foo, bar, baz, quux, or i have special meaning.

I mean, it's nobody's fault but your own if you make a language feature that breaks industry conventions.

Sure. Wouldn't it be nice to allow these people to write better code without having to change their language?
Can those californians now actually show some care towards support for multiple languages in the software they write and encode some basics like support for users to move between places, countries and regions? :P

It's kind of incredible how absolutely terrible most SV products are at supporting other locales and how horrible experience with products is if you dare to do something silly like move to another place. God forbid support for multiple languages from multiple people.

Even if the purpose was to advertise Stripe, the ad has very evident intention to provide value to the viewer of the ad, which is to provide information, so the purpose is not singular; and yet both its intended purposes are not being done very well.

I think that what really happened here is that you are upset because you found yourself arguing for a position that you can’t rationally and convincingly defend, which is a position that no one forced you to maintain in the first place. You should know that there’s also no joy in dealing with someone like that.

Probably in some places like SF but outside of that, no. PHP is massively popular outside the US.
In the old days, depending on architecture, fp64 performance could be atrocious even when fp32 was decent, so bragging about fp64 performance has an authenticity to it. Not all scientific computing requires 64 bits, but knowing that you can drop to high precision when necessary without penalty is nice.

Also, back in the day, integer ops were just called 'ops', grumble grumble. But yeah FLOPS specifically refers to floating point. Calling them TOPS doesn't make sense to me, since tensor cores were meant for matrix operation speedup, and these matrices are rarely integer.

Yes.
I think you're really missing the point, so I'm not going to go source my anecdote about regular people in a conversation about boys clubs in the office. I've summed it up quite thoroughly throughout this thread.

If we really want to talk about these actual comedians (who are all very funny in their own right), I would say that Bill Burr is a snowflake who had a bad set, Dave Chappelle should really learn to not make jokes at the expense of people who are currently facing severe systemic oppression, and John Cleese is an over-reacting octogenarian, far past his prime and aligning himself with an anti-vax fake news network; not the arbiter of truth you think he is.

They aren't coming across as particularly sympathetic to me, and the comedy scene will forget them if they're not able to adapt their material to a changing generation. Comedy is temporally bound and what is good comedy changes over time.

People find different things funny, so there should be a diversity of choice in comedy. I've been to sets that I personally didn't find funny, but the audience was locals with a different sense of humour than me and they loved it. It wasn't bad, just not my style, but it didn't operate at the expense of someone else. I've been to sets where the comedian on stage floundered and lashed out at the audience for being too sensitive, and the next comedian killed it without being 'sensitive' to the audience, just by being funny.

Here are some funny comedians that I've seen this year that managed to not be transphobic or align themselves with conspiracy theories about vaccinations:

- Arthur Simeon

- The Lucas Brothers

- Malik Elassal

- Alonzo Bodden

- Joyelle Nicole Johnson

- Fortune Feimster

- Steph Tolev

Plus a bunch of others that I can't remember off the top of my head. Check them out if you care to. I don't think any of them are complaining that they can't be funny anymore, they're doing just fine, and I think they're bringing fresh comedy to the scene.

In my opinion, if the old guard wants to show themselves out because they feel like they can't compete, they should feel free to.
