I think the point is: why is OpenAI wasting its time on this? If it's just another channel for billing tokens then OK I guess, but it's not like it's a huge breakthrough. OpenAI should be the roads, not the trucks. Let othe

Interesting as I was in the (very large) camp that never considered it for generation, and saw it as a pure encoder for things like semantic similarity with an easy jump to classification, etc

Do we need language specific LLMs? I can’t vouch for the data coverage or accuracy of Arabic in the leading models today, but I do know them to be highly cross-lingual capable.

Not necessarily. You can get an interest rate lower than your investment return rate.

Not true. Whole classes of bugs are just eliminated - most importantly NPEs. I’ve seen tiny scripts in node that crash due to lack of an exception handler, and I’ve witnessed countless runtime errors in Java in the simplest of web services

The way I think about rust is this: you can experience the pain up front while you’re getting your program to compile, or you can experience pain later during runtime in random unpredictable ways. Rust is the former. It takes time to lear

But is OpenAI recouping this? I remember seeing reports a year ago that it was in the realm of $700M/mo in inference costs for them - are they earning that now? Of course the strategy of taking a loss and reinvesting - but I don't

Well sure. But maybe the token logprobs can be used to help give a confidence assessment.

Saying “I don’t know” to 30% of queries if it actually doesn’t know, is a feature I want. Otherwise there is zero trust. How do I know that I’m in a 30% wrong or 70% correct situation right now?

GPT-4 was rumored to be trained on 13 trillion tokens. https://www.kdnuggets.com/2023/07/gpt4-details-leaked.html Not sure where you’re getting the 45Gb number. Also, Google doesn’t use GPT-4 for summaries. They

I approach this from a technical perspective, and have research that shows how Google is unfit for summaries based on their short snippet length in their results [1]. Google also has to support AI summaries for 200k to 500k queries per seco

Even then I’ve mostly given up. I’ve seen LLMs change from snake case to camel case for a single method and leave the rest untouched. I’ve seen them completely fabricate APIs to non existent libraries. I’ve seen them get mathematical formu

I guess I’m an older developer. But I’ve come full circle and have gone back to hand coding after a couple years of fighting LLMs. I’m tired of coaxing their style and fixing their bugs - some of which are just really dumb and some are dev
