It is true that every major DB ventor, SQL or not, is smashing the AI/vector keyword on their front pages. In Elastic for example, their vector capabilities have gone from laughable to respectable in a year. Its a lot simpler to just

Don't worry. GPT written code gets committed to github (After human review, so its working code only). Github data gets shared with OpenAI (Microsoft). So GPT continues to improve. The recent deterioration is due to reduction in parame

I think that is extremely obvious, given their interface looks 90% like github. They are trying to branch out into training AI models and running inference themselves. But their costs for inferencing look extremely uncompetitive compared to

H100s consume like 350W. 3000 H100s = 350kW 350*0.2h = 70kWh, about $20 at $0.3/kWh (lets assume data centers have expensive electrical costs).

H100s are intended to be retailed piecemeal. The big enterprise model is DGX GH200, at $10 mil each. Its just that current supply is extremely short, so the H100s end up only available to big buyers. But that will be resolved in time. Nvidi

This seems like a very promising product, a ChatGPT interface, enterprise version, is a large gap in the market. However, this part in your advertising, sounds very dubious:"Credal can be deployed fully on-premise for Large Enterprises

The cutting edge for graphics is all raytracing, and Nvidia still dominates. DLSS3, pathtracing, etc, these are for 'graphics', but heavily dependent on AI post processing, so Nvidia still rules. So in the gaming market, Nvidia st

Amazon only has AWS, their retail business isn't worth that much (maybe $200 bil max, given low margins). Online2Offline has mostly a disappointment, as the margins of tech just could not be replicated in offline businesses. Microsoft

Meta made the dumb decision to invest in VR, rather than AI. Those giant and expensive VR teams (Or the devs who made horizon worlds...) aren't going to easily transition into AI. AI generated content is the real core of metaverses, no

Old people do not like radical new technology. That's not a new observation. It doesn't benefit you to adapt to the new workflow, with all its initial inefficiencies and errors, since you don't get the long term benefit.

Prompt engineering is merely the entry-drug to AI-wrangling. SD has gotten to the point that someone can fine tune a model (LORAs) with 2 days of time and $2 of GPU time. There'll be roles for AI wranglers in every large company, where

Stop linking paywalled articles. Also, can anyone summarize the differences between milvus and pinecone? And will vector databases remain separate from mainstream normal databases for long? What architecturally is blocking such a merge?

The simplest and quickest benchmark is to do a rap battle between GPT-4 and the local models. Copy paste the responses between them to enable the cross-model battle. It is instantly clear how strong the model is relative to GPT-4.

This, AI more directly competes with service outsourcing than anything else. AI isn't reliable. But is your outsourced team any better? Outsourcing is cheap, but AI is 100 times cheaper. Communicating with AI, via prompt engineering, i

Its not 'thanking', its positive signal that GPT's previous outputs were correct, so it should continue doing whatever it was doing. If you say no/bad etc, then GPT will try other approaches.

Even in the absence of AI, what's stopping this friend from going to a quack 'natural therapist'? If Steve Jobs can be fooled, what about an ordinary person? ChatGPT is motivated by sycophancy, humans are motivated by profit.

That's because you used ChatGPT. Rather than GPT-4. GPT-4 has more parameters, so can remember much more obscure facts. I had GPT-4 analyze the ethics of some obscure japanese visual novel from the perspective of multiple characters in
