If I could fine tune it to fill my work time sheets, I would count it as a big win!

Speaking of random shuffling, I think it should be made much easier to conduct RCTs on citizens to try out systems of governance/social programs/etc. to see what works best. Basically test stuff instead of guessing and voting. I t

Have people ever had the ability detect sarcasm?

I'd say GPT-4 can make much more elaborate arguments in 15s than humans can.

It ended up being so complex, that none of the implementations were up to spec, and hardly any 2 implementations talked to each other out of the box. i.e. the exact opposite it was meant to do.

Ideally sail effect would be used for position keeping, and to reduce loads needed to keep the assembly together. I suppose that would reduce amount of area available for soaking the sun, but might still be lighter than trying to build stif

With the speed GPT4 is replying, you could easily move inference to GEO as well, and no-one would notice.

Yeah, no night, no atmosphere, constant power output, lot's of real estate, and panels in space do not need heavy superstructure to withstand weather or gravity, thus they could potentially be extremely light for the area (micrometers

In that vein, how about stackoverflow? That should give at least straightforward ask-and-answer format, and there's plenty on material to work with.

Remember that these models generate one token at a time. They do not "think ahead" much more than maybe a few tokens in beam search. So if the problem requires search - actual comparison of approaches, and going back-and-forth bet

Good job hallucinating with LoRA. I wonder if the paper was published after knowledge cut-off date.. (it stands for Low-Rank Adaptation).

That you have to have at least FPGA to run it?

Why do you think gpt doesn't care? Humans care about survival, it shows in the internet, I'd expect gpt to absorb that attitude by default. And anyway, the more of these models come into existence, at some point evolution will dic

It's pretty unfair to give it character level tasks, when it's input is probably tokenized with subword units. I am already a bit surprised that it even knows which letters go to which words.

Would you trust Google's ( or other search provider's) ads more, if they had a separately browsable "classifieds" site, not unlike Craigslist, that the search ads would be search results from (reach modified by how much

You would still need big equipment to do that, you can't just break in and "take the fuel", it's deadly taken straight out of active reactor. Probably easier to just truck the whole container.

Let at least the long-term customers pay later, or let them use your product for free while you set up another payment processor. You may ask your customers, which payment options work for them, and use that as help to pick a more reliable

That renewable energy deployment is (currently) growing exponentially, rather that linearly. We will see much more than 3% improvement, but very probably wont go to 0 in 20 years.

What about the satisfaction of the public that the police is serving ? That should be the main consideration. If he did a better job, then you should fix the managers to appreciate the good work that he did, or give him responsibility on d

The "top x%" in kaggle competition can be a bit misleading, many competitors just download some data and make 1 or 2 simple submissions, putting in couple of hours of work. Near the top of rankings when deadlines loom, many are wo

If donator's blood has same concentration of pfas as recipients, the recipient's concentration does not change! Also, the recipient has probably just lost blood, so total amount of pfas won't change either, and taking into ac

If the meeting is big enough, and you are remote, you can do whatever while "listening in" (and out of the other ear, if it doesn't concern you).

There are such sensors, listening to thermal noise, right inside most CPUs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDRAND It's a question of trust. Do you trust that Intel (or whoever builds the physical RNG) didn't bu

Sleep more at night time. Go running. Start a side project, preferably something with easy to achieve, yet rewarding steps. Work with it hour or 2 per day, just for pleasure.

Integration tests can become heavy for complex systems, and unit testing then gives you faster test-modify loop when developing code.

All this "do you agree to this and that" nonsense could be avoided by "inversion of control": instead of sites asking users whether they agree to this 100 page document, websites should be legally bound to listen and hon

The more "disentangled" the world is, the less there is incentive to avoid direct confrontation (war). If economies are disentangled, economic area A can grow by taking resources of economic area B by force. If they are entangled,

Maybe training with actual bottom-line utility function would have shown some use case, that is, instead of MCC you would have predicted whether sending a person to change the drive now before it fails would cost less than letting it fail a
