Maybe people shouldn't say evil and hateful things about anyone, no matter how bad they are, because it makes the entire culture of public discourse more toxic. Americans seem to have very little reverence for the quality and civility

I wonder how much of that is a result of the state enforced cultural isolation- (as a means of decreasing the chances of information and ideas which they actively censure from spreading in the population, ideas which would be likely undermi

Hello! If any of the authors are reading this, what is the difference between doing this as opposed to using attention mechanisms between nodes?

This is really intersting. > In particular, model parallelism is efficient when the amount of computation per neuron activity is high (because the neuron activity is the unit being communicated), while data parallelism is efficient when

Just a perspective for other readers: I recently moved to the Bay Area. I've lived quite a few places around the world and US. Some I consider the nicest in the world (Tokyo) and some I don't consider nice at all. I'd formed

Yes, you seem to understand everything correctly. Supporters of an actual dictator for life, who are themselves capable engineers, are manufacturing weapons for a nation which regularly supports other dictators and themselves openly threate

The weights are for the ImageNet category only, just FYI. Which should mean the model is only trained to pair image outputs with the CLIP vector from the very short ImageNet labels, so the quality of intermediate latent space for long form

It's so interesting how many people with between above average up to immense intellectual capacity can imagine so little else to do with their intellect than think about money. I think shallow intellectual pursuits like money maxing f

Humans are hugely responsible for the spread of violent propoganda. Attempting to curtail people's ability to communicate what they already believe isn't a long term solution and only leads to normalising central authorities decid

You can't deny though that there is an incentive for some, especially hedge funds with massive crypto positions (who are known for not being above doing nefarious things with foreign government officials), to bribe legislators of count

I'm personally convinced (by no evidence other than game theory, which is what trust in block validators to be honest as a group is based on as well) in cases like these, that there must be people with a huge stake in btc who are essen

You're the first to confuse it for sarcasm on this forum. Your tone seems to be presumptuous and uncordial (possibly a learned memetic behaviour from others with similar opinions when asked to elaborate with simple explanations of thei

It was a genuine question, I've not heard an intuitive or simple explanation of the concept. Your assumed combative tone is very reminiscent of others I've heard bring up the concept though (like Gary Marcus). I still haven't

I'm a bit lost on who the 'they' are and what the 'paper' is in this case: The authors of this paper writing this paper, or the authors of SoTA papers writing SoTA papers. A third option you may have meant which mak

I think I'd need an author of one of those (SoTA) papers to walk me through how reading part of a 50+ page theory paper helped them achieve any marginal improvement on their path towards productive contributions for me to really unders

For anyone else reading, this does not seem like a qualified or legitimate take on Japanese life from my experience of a year of actually living in Tokyo. Maybe the OP has had equal personal experience and just percieved it differently, but

Thanks so much for this! This was an exact problem my team had at a recent hackathon, and we decided to use diffusion instead. We theorised that the initial image parameter might help, but we didn't have time to test it. Documenting th
