The Russians have interests in holding a security border around themselves which extends to about a dozen American allies and trading partners Russia extends their security border to those allies and trading partners, they will almost certa

To be fair, might absolutely does make right in international politics still. The only reason we are even talking about Ukraine is that the Russian 3-day invasion totally failed and open up the opportunity for the west to sanction them and

Because Ukraine is a democratic state/western ally being invaded by it's much bigger and meaner neighbor and will cease to exist if we do not help them defend themselves. We don't have to give them to Ukraine, but doing so ge

We need them to give to Ukraine, no? I would suggest they are preventing harm in that case. Edit: The mods here apparently think responding to the Russian influence campaigns on their site is worthy of a shadow ban.

It's certainly a consequence of interest rates going up. In the words of buffet, Reddit has no pants. They should have improved their platform and lock useful features behind a paywall, like video and image hosting. They could have m

Yes and no. Yes, it actually works. That's what matters at the end of the day. But no, eventually you're going to have to fine tune on something that has a larger context or training a brand new model with the position embeddings

It just keeps getting better! This is so exciting because contacts length has been a problem with these models for so long and it's awesome to see open source finally cracking that egg. I need another GPU. edit: I'm actually a lit

Iron is one of the most abundant elements on earth, but also we aren't going to be burning it like we do fuels now. Instead we would produce pure iron using green power and oxidize it back to it's natural state for energy in a cy

Not really. If your intent is to truly ensure content is labeled open AI isn't able to ensure that since you can just copy paste their output. They want the law and they want to promise safety while not being impacted by the overbearin

They submitted a paper to congress talking about how they should regulate AI. HN is not wrong about the fact that there were trying to push regulation in the United States that would help their business. It just turns out the European laws

The two are roughly the same. A big truck is more deadly to smaller vehicles and we shouldn't make it unsafe to drive a regular sized car instead of one of these monstrously large trucks. You could regulate things like requiring stop g

I think you're mistaken at least with current AI. It's very easy to condition them into a new frame or mind if you speak to them in a certain way. They're also very prone to "trope" - where when your sprinkle a few

I'm spoiled by 4 bit and unfortunately it doesn't appear to be supposed here so this isn't of much use to me, but it's awesome to see people working on the inference speed side of things regardless.

> It’s too easy to be independent these days, To be fair, I didn't say you have to have a good common cause. Just something to do in some capacity. Like, you don't need help, it's fun to hang out and it's an excuse

I honestly don't think it's as big a problem as you would expect. Guys aren't quite so built to be huggy friendly and we tend to be more defined by real working relationships. Or maybe it's just a me thing. Like, at wor

Imports through the browser do, but I'm wanting a single file bundle with all those imports so I'm not relying on a browser feature to deliver the content over N requests. I know that's less of a concern nowadays with modern

Honestly typescript is fine, just give me: Standard library that isn't worthless - no more npm package spam. Type knowledge in the runtime. It doesn't have to be typed, just make it so I don't have to do crazy checks on prop

I do not think of my argument rests on the degree to which I am an LLM. I was fairly specific in speaking about the ways in which an LLM is different and the ways in which it lacks the functional capacity to be aware of itself. I made a mi

I would argue that the silicon-based LLMs we have today do explicitly lack sentience. Sentence, self-awareness, can only exist when you receive yourself as an input in some form shape or way. These llms just don't do that. Technically

> This is, I think, the problem. You're prioritizing your fear of an external threat over what I see as the much more real concern of growing democratic censorship within the US No, both things are issues and both should be concerns

This is where I come back to pointing that your arguing in bad faith here. You're trying to argue to absurdity. Here I have a concrete example of a group that is explicitly politically extreme. They are explicitly in contrast to the va

> The software is open source, so if the creators put crap into it for censorship they will rightly get called out for it Unless they sneak something into a binary. Or create a backdoor that doesn't get noticed for months or years.

I'm making the argument that because the developers of living support China and their forms of authoritarian control they are likely to publish updates and make changes to their software which enables and helps to promote those ideals
