As an Au stralian I am offended you went with gold psychosis instead of whatever the aussie zeitgeist is cooking up with extra crazy. Our equivalent of "Florida man" is "queensland man" or "western suburbs man&quot

interestingly, having actually done the law enforcement side of these investigations, 50% of them are local. And I understand that this is not 100% solution, but neither is any form of law enforcement, but that doesn't mean we should f

In case you missed it, json is less likely to be written over than markdown by agents- something to do with the structure being more rigid

My favorite solution is a lower parameter 5 layer model trained on the data that acts as a local compression and response, a neurocortext layer wrapped around any large persistent data you have to interact with and ...... maybe also a speci

yeh- what is interesting is that it is way more viral and ... complicit than any of the doomer threads. If it does build a self-sustaining hivemind across whatsapp and xitter.. it will be entirely self inflicted by people enjoying the &quot

These operate in parallel. Maybe you SDLC does that, the effort of each human developer sitting in a planning meeting, getting jira tickets, doing individual code (or pair or whatever), reporting back in standup, coordinating the next step,

Are you saying that people can't work out what to code using these? Or that code is not a worthy subject to use AI for? 'cause I got news for you... 1. Improving coding improved reasoning in the models. Having a verifiable answer

try the tools. Really. If you are remotely interested in tech or AI, try the tools Copilot this is not. You may be trolling of course. There are huge steps between these various tools, if you try them, for a smidge of investment, it will be

so what you are saying is that for production we should use AI, and hand code for hobby, got it. Lemme log back into the vpn and set the agents on the Enterprise monorepo /jk

Yeh, I agree with this. My art (painting and building) comes at a much faster rate when I am content. Having time and metal space to contemplate colour scheme, being confident to start something bold: that doesn't happen if I am tired,

The problem with laws that both the enforcer and the subject (enforcee?) agree are bad, is that enforcement is variable. And that leads to corruption. Every damn time.

Human metrics of intelligence have always felt like rubbish. We never did this well. I would describe intelligence as effective adaption leading to survival and growth or prospering. Memorization, comprehension, speed of response etc. thos

We have 20+ services in prod that use llms. So I have 50k (or more) per service per day of data to evaluate. The question is- do people actually evaluate properly. And how do you do an apples to apples evaluation of such squishy services?

Except that a person born has rights granted to them about land and property mostly decided on capital. Very few farmers can refuse to sell the a megacorp. If you think this has no impact, find some un-used land that you have not inherited

Depends on your life experiences and working environment. If you have worked in prisons and places with a lot of physical violence you can (some don't) acquire a distinct and accurate sense for emotion and threat, based on sound and b

So the things I have seen in generative AI art lead me to believe there is more complexity than that. Ask it do a scifi scene inspired by Giger but in the style of Van Gough. Pick 3 concepts and mash them together and see what it does. You

You can get standalone/isolated versions of chatGPT, if your org is large enough, in partnership with OpenAI. And others. They run on the same infra but in accounts you set up, cost the same, but you have visibility on the compute, and

I did fingerprints from a digital photo in 2012 maybe earlier. Old mate was holding up drugs to be photographed. Bit of contrast, blew it up, sent it to fingerprint bureau and what would you know, we had those prints on file. Not the crime
