I've seen a few sites train LLMs / use RAG on their online docs. When I used it, it was very useful in terms of search and synthesis. imo it'd be nice if projects release a current model trained on their documentation and cod

You can't put controls around grey goo. You can put controls around clearly defined access methods and data shapes.

Companies will drag this forward anyway. Apple into their proprietary tent, everyone else in every direction they can. It's a very legitimate role of government to try to put some controls on this mess, and the ideas behind those contr

I think this discussion is going in a few unhelpful directions. These "wallets" are not used for financial transactions, they're for credentials. They are an alternative to paper/plastic driver's licenses, proof of

The same thing that did the education for people to learn a credit card or their smartphone, it's a mixture of banks, friends, work. It's a gradual thing, there's no need to remove curriculum. I don't know what you'

User education, personal AI, responsible vendors will be part of the solution. Seamless and safe transactions are very much desirable, there is a whole world to build on once they're in place, so there is a lot of motivation to solve t

These "wallets" are badly named, they are about credentials, not money. Think of a wallet of identity cards (driver's license, etc).

Google &c already own most people's data. This makes it possible for it to be portable and network based.

Right, the person saying "they use it" as opposed to "refer to it" is an indicator. It's a great feature, using on-device "AI" (privacy preserving), and available since Pixel 2 (2018).

That's great news, I didn't know they had rolled out those features. I don't really want to rewrite my extensions for another browser, but I'll see how applicable the others might be.

I've been an Android user since day 1, but am very impressed by some of these features. I'd love to have the half-click to focus feature and other dedicated camera button features, macro, a few other things that put this generatio

If we're talking æsthetics, I find they all look like silver blimps (glad they're finally shipping darker tones, but it's an affectation). I've seen a lot of dented Macbooks. I don't think they're any sturdier

I don't understand how they can roll out this feature across all regions. Call recording laws are different in many jurisdictions, and this is like a superset of call recording. I think it's a useful feature for a person, but to c

A third heavier, and it really feels heavy for its size. It's one of the things that made me decide not to get a Mac. I don't know why they use so much aluminum.

They are not "light," though.

Whenever I start looking into a device like this, I'm reminded how much progress has been held back by the grip Amazon has on the book world. Building on shared book annotations would be a great way to develop intelligence, but it can

I don't understand why it's even legal; it's akin to call recording, which is illegal in many areas. Basically I think it's a great idea for people to AI-process their own information, but when it comes to conversations,

Yes. It's not really "open" if it depends on a non-libre service. To be legit, they must at least enable this experimentally.

Usually this is a sign of a project that isn't ready for a lot of attention. It's very brave and a little bit stupid to offer Open Source to the world (especially without a sustainability plan), if you put a lot of effort into &#

My impression is larger or more synthetic orgs don't want devs to lead things anymore, they want a very top down development of vision -> product -> ux -> project management, and then the developers scurry around and do whatev

OK, sorry if I missed that then, but perhaps a direct link here or there would help since a number of people asked the same thing. I followed a link to your huggingface page on reddit, and there the obvious README doesn't talk about sp

You don't seem willing to share how you did anything, you only draw attention to your works. In the reddit thread, several people asked about your 'talk like a pirate' training, and you never responded. In this thread, you im

Super interesting project. I like its focus. Wondering if the author looked into Cozodb, or other databases that combine vector + graph/triples. Since probably neuro-symbolic is the best path. https://docs.cozodb.org/en

So if you only converse with LLMs (and never write or read anything), is the problem solved?

Would this be a sort of holy grail product, where we could write once for 'edge/function/lambda' systems? I am helping develop a new project that will be hosted on Azure, but would really like to make it as cloud portabl

In contrast to another comment, I found this review rather over the top in romanticism. "Newly-shipped OSes just have a certain special something about them" - aka bugs. I get the reminiscing angle (though I think it's not th
