Are there any indications that this will be possible? Consumer hardware will continue getting better but I can't see 512GB RAM in a MacBook Pro any time soon. I'm hoping linear attention techniques plus MoE will make breakthroughs

I find Mistral Medium 3.5 with OpenCode is perfectly fine if you're willing to talk to it in a more fine-grained way about actual code. For me that's fine because even with huge frontier models I don't like trying to vibe pro

Yeah same company. Clearly they haven't improved their guardrails in the last couple months. It's never the technology that's the problem, it's the owners and operators who decide how to use it.

We should pivot the culture to one that is pro-liberal arts again. These people know how to read and write better than STEMs in general. CS as the only path to programming was always too narrow, and often people with a broader education are

Some much focus on fine-tuning when it can actively make performance on reasoning and planning benchmarks worse (over a baseline of already worse-than-coin-toss). Why not give us nice things for integrating with knowledge graphs and rules e

$10k is nothing for rich people. Just putting them in debt for it doesn't mean nothing of value was provided. The reverse would be true where poor people could be ruined, unless the value provided is worth significantly more than the d

There is a lot of synthetic content about academic subjects on YT now, and it's very low quality. I used to search for lectures to listen to while walking or driving but now need to wade through tons of enshittified spam. Even if it&#x

I've been wondering this myself lately. After using RAG with pgvector for the last few months with temperature 0, it's been pretty great with very little hallucination. The small context window is the limiting factor. In principle

I thought they already didn't use input data from the API to train; that it was only the consumer-facing ChatGPT product from which they'd use the data for training. It is opt-in for contributing inputs via API. https://

I can understand why that framing would be attractive, but there is no real fundamental difference when considering JSONB/HSTORE in PostgreSQL, and now we have things like pgvector https://github.com/pgvector/pgvec

Even if that were true, LLMs don't give any kind of "handles" on the semantics. You just get what you get and have to hope it is tuned for your domain. This is 100% fine for generic consumer-facing services where the training

This resonates with me. Also in management with a similar style. However, I'd like to take a little tangent from there in case you'd want to elaborate on what it means to "get to know" people as part of the humanistic ap
