> It's not a transformer model though, and old context fades away much faster / is harder to recall because all the new context is layered directly on top of it.

That's a well known limitation. But if you actually know that a "context" comprises multiple sentences (or other elements of syntax) and that any ordering among them is completely arbitrary, the principled approach is to RNN-parse them all in parallel and sum the activations you end up with as vectors - like in bag-of-words model, essentially enforcing commutativity on the network: that's pretty much how attention-based models work under the hood. The really basic intuition is just that a commutative and associative function can be expressed (hence "learned") in terms of vector sum modulo some arbitrary conversion of the inputs and outputs.
I get where you're coming from – the world isn’t always rainbows and butterflies, and yeah, we do need to be prepared for that. But here's the thing: there's a world of difference between being realistic and outright traumatizing, especially when it comes to kids.

Watching snuff videos as a kid isn't just 'dealing with reality' – it's a one-way ticket to Trauma Town, with potential lifelong psychological consequences. Sure, our brains are spongy when we're young, but they're soaking up everything – good and bad. Exposing a kid to that level of violence isn't about teaching them life lessons; it's more likely to warp their view of the world and desensitize them to violence.

We don't live in a utopia, and we shouldn’t pretend to. Kids will inevitably face hard truths and tough times. But let’s equip them with resilience, empathy, and understanding, not shock and awe. There's a middle ground between bubble-wrapping our kids and throwing them into the deep end of the worst humanity has to offer.

Super cool! The examples are really slick. What sort of research do you see the A2O supporting?

As an Australian living abroad I've been long fascinated by the potential for AI across the continent, you have vast areas of land where there is a tremendous lack of human labor available. It's probably a big part of why invasive species have become so difficult to control, labor intensive management and monitoring techniques just don't scale.

These days I work on industrial edge computing (increasingly focusing on ML). Super interested in the potential to get models running in the field (at scale, on cost optimized hardware). One of my favorite Aussie AI applications has to be the felixer: https://thylation.com/.

I've been lucky to get to work through a few of these already, they do give a decent introduction in how to use Vespa tensor expressions.

I believe it's one of the most flexible ways in any vector (or other) database to express how to rank your query results, and it's compiled down to fast native code for execution, using openblas etc. where appropriate.

Yes, or for more familiar examples: coordinates and complex numbers. the "default" less-than and greater-than don't have any meaning for them; you have to define one, which may be "imperfect" (because one can't do better), hence the concept of partial order.

The two times I’ve seen pedestrians hit by cars it was the #2 situation and they had the walk signal. One of them was me hit by an actual police car. Wasn’t hurt except for a sprained wrist, I did the whole roll over the hood and off the other side thing though. Pretty embarrassing, I got up and told the officer I was fine and left (late to a conf call at work) sometimes I wish I was hurt just a little bit more. The settlement check would have been nice heh.
I'm glad to see something approaching ethics discussed:

> There’s a mismatch between what we thought doing a good job was and what a significant part of the industry considers profitable, and I think that explains the increasing discomfort of many software professionals.

"Discomfort" is quite the understatement. This leaves so much unsaid.

I will add some questions:

- What happens when your users are not your customers (the ones that pay)?

- Does your business have any ethical obligation to your users -- all of them -- even the ones that do not pay?

- What happens when your paying customers seek to use your business in ways that have negative downstream effects for your users?

For example, what if:

- Your platform makes fraud easier than the existing alternatives?

- Your platform makes it easier to misinform people in comparison to the alternatives?

- Your platform makes it easier to shape user opinions in ways that are attractive (habit-forming) but destructive in the long-term?

All of these have proven to be successful business models, over some time scales!

Given the reality of the dynamic, should a business pursue such an exploitative model? If so, can it do so more or less responsibly? Can a more ethical version of the business mitigate the worst tendencies of competitors? Or will it tend to become part of the problem?

A key take-away is clear: some classes of problems are bigger and more important than the business model. There are classes of problems that can be framed as: what are the norms and rules we need _such that_ businesses operate in some realm of sensibility?

Finally, I want to make this point crystal clear: a business inherently conveys a set of values: this is unavoidable. There is no escaping it. Even if a business merely takes the stance of 'popularity wins', that is in itself a choice that has deep implications on values. Political scientists and historians have known for years about the problems called 'tyranny of the majority'. Food for thought, no matter what your political philosophy.

I don't know 'the best' set of ethics, but I know that some are better than others. And I hope/expect that we'll continue to refine our ethics rather than leave them unexamined.

The CTO told me off for my completely irresponsible behaviour.
IndexedDB is fine - just use some wrapped that makes it easier to work with. Our current SQLite implementation actually stores the underlying data inside IndexedDB - mostly due to a lack of better options (but that's busy changing with OPFS).

The difficult parts are mostly related to keeping the local data in sync with the server, whether that uses SQLite, IndexedDB or some other database.

Sounds suspiciously like the next big leap in hosted models will be more computationally expensive on the inference side rather than training.

For hosted that’s much of a sameness - just moving money allocations. But consumers can’t suddenly have 5x 4090s for local.
I vaguely recall reading about a project trying to achieve just that on HN a while back. Unfortunately, that is all I remember about it. Back then, it apparently was not quite there, yet, but that must have been at least five years ago, so the situation might be a lot better today.

The OP is being sarcastic. He's basically mocking the US Government's seemingly compulsive habit of trying to sanction China in any field it seems China might be dominating, pulling ahead, or able to dominate in the near or distant future.
Yeah that would save disk space! In terms of inference, you'd still need to hold multiple models in memory though, and I don't think we're that close to that (yet) on personal devices. You could imagine a system that dynamically unloads and reloads the models as you need them in this process, but that unloading and reloading would be pretty slow probably.

This is basically Russian roulette with insulin with even worse odds.
The jargon from category theory for this phenomenon is - partial ordering.

It really is an interesting thing. In fact, as human beings who by nature think in terms of abstract, non-concrete units (as opposed to mathematically precise units like a computer program), we tend to compare two related things. They might belong to the same category of things, but they might not be eligible for direct comparison at all.

Once you internalize partial ordering, our brain gets a little more comfortable handling similar, yet incomparable analogies.

I really love open source IoT stuff for example and I think it's a great that people are trying to take real ownership of their devices. However it's different if the penalty for failure is your lights not working or immediate death.

> we are talking about freeing up tons of knowledge from a "good for consumption/bad for distribution" format.

FWIW PDF is actually great for distribution. It allows you to invisibly embed all the raw data used to generate the document that the end user is seeing, in whatever format you want. So if you are generating your PDFs by using PrinceXML to render HTML, you can embed the raw JSON used to generate all of the text, graphs, charts, etc. Now most people don't actually do this of course, but that isn't the fault of the spec.

Both SUVs and trucks are heavily promoted by the manufacturers due to their higher margins - convincing Americans to pay 10-20% more margin is literally what saved Detroit around the turn of the century.

At my first job out of college, we were hired to create a point-of-sale system.

We wrote it in Javascript, being unaware of how Javascript treats numbers. (Like a rented mule.)

After the first few days, the client reached out and told us that the end-of-day numbers were sometimes off by a few cents - tax totals, things like that. After a few weeks, they'd be off by significantly more.

Easily the most embarrassing incident of my career, even worse than when I accidentally left a `console.log("FUCK");` in production code as a debugging tool, or when we wrote some code to generate random four-letter codes that would spew out the occasional profanity.
