Even if zero net new insight, he has access to information on most things, not just AI, that the layperson might never have, even in the future. Not intended as praise at all (i'd say this is true for a lot of C-level in a lot of big c

I generally agree with this comment, but what option does a decision maker have here? (apart from similar products that probably will end up doing the same things anyway). Are there equivalent scale/functionality products that can trul

I'd like to be able to do something similar, but the old batteries in these things seem like a point of catastrophic failure. How is that dealt with?

Feels to me like the toolchain for using LLMs in various tasks is still in flux (i interpret all of this as "stuff in different places like .md or skills or elsewhere that is appended to the context window" (i hope that is correct

I'd love to believe this, but very recent history has shown (in the US at least) that we are moving backwards and trying to resist renewable energy.

Can be argued that there is intuitive satisfaction/pleasure/utility that spectators gain from watching sports competitions. The payoff is a lot more obvious/instant. Whereas with a lot of tech these days, what needle are we r

I recall way back in the day when Stephen Fry used to host QI, they did a bit about a lasagne battery. Sean Lock was on the panel if i remember and spun it out into a ipod-style "lasagne-pod"

i think the applications to spy-craft could be quite interesting here. Something for the next mission impossible movie maybe?

I find this interesting but the nomenclature escapes me: How is T(z) = z + zT + zT^2 + ... ? I find the jump from the functional programming description of the tree to this recurrence relation not intuitive

This. There seems to be one of these announcements every so often, and i havent seen any of them used at scale, or making any kind of dent in the status quo.

So GFS->graphcast = more accurate coarse-grained prediction (0,25 degree iirc), -> WRF for fine grained interpolation of forecast?
15.
by 1minusp 2y ago
Do you use WRF as an input? I think graphcast uses some kind of NWP input (qhich in my mind i've equated to WRF). Thank you for offering to answer questions!
16.
by 1minusp 2y ago
Any comments from experts on how much better these models are compared to running base WRF over GFS forecasts?

What are some good metrics to evaluate LLM output performance in general? Or is it too hard to quantify at this stage (or not understood well enough). Perhaps the latter, or else those could be in the loss function itself..

There an interesting line of thinking i've heard (apologies, i forgot which podcast i heard it on), that states that forecasts of electric load growth due to AI are overblown wildly, since they are based on very recent data that only r

Cost of undergrounding power lines is large. Especially over the distribution network (in that there is a lot more of it over space)

Large drilling costs from where I am in the south due to ground being mostly (lime?)stone: makes it cost-infeasbile. Other areas might have it easier though.

this is neat! I'll have to try this out.

Will be nice to be able to upload a picture/sketch instead of having to sketch something out in the scratchpad. I tend to sketch block diagrams from time to time and hate having to use some tool to draw/drag/align things. Ver

Personal data point: I've had to move out of the bay area over a year ago after I failed to purchase a place due to the cost and competition for housing (tried hard, made multiple competitive offers, narrowly missed etc). Still hurts,

Kind of Okey: Moved away from SV because we got sick of being beaten out on offers for homes (over a dozen attempts). Slightly better financially and the family is still together so perhaps i should be more thankful. Continued struggle with

I work in a closely related space: parent's comments are accurate. Some of these items can be solved with better forecasting models, but the issue is that almost no-one actually cares about 'better' forecasting at inidividual

Know that parents comment is /s but in truth, it really feels like interpretations of body language and text to indicate hawkishness/dovishness actually seems to matter.

Share, yes absolutely. But also, keep in perspective, that these are ~$500K+ jobs and the (certainly smart) folks in these jobs can also move to other parts of google that arent as hard to deal with. So, it is understandable that others mig
