It’s not a very fair system if only certain participants can afford to avoid taxes. If these schemes were doable for most folks and not only the very rich then no one would have an issue with the system (assuming that it provided enough rev

Yeah exactly this is why there’s hype. It’s the best model that you can use for free easily

Umm I want to pay zero and run locally

If there is a better mode I can easily integrate using python I’m all ears. For what I’m building quality is most important

Quantized training doesn't work. Quantization-aware training does, and that is when you use floats but adjust the math to compensate for the fact that you are going to quantize at inference time.

There is absolutely no one who has managed to do anything close to these models on a single CPU when it comes to _training_, so that is why no one is considering the possibility.

There is so much hype around federated learning but often the hard and insurmountable part of this is federated labeling. For example for your cancer use case, you have to convince multiple hospitals to feed the system labels and this is a

I'm curious for those who have actually tried it, what they think of the performance. A lot of the threads here are just talking about the country-limited rollout.

People on Twitter are jumping to the conclusion that this allows you to read someone’s mind but maybe all it does is allow to you to reconstruct something similar to what they are looking at. For example if you recorded the activity of ever

This result is not meaningfully different from things that have been done with MRI 10 or so years ago. Why do you think it’s getting there? I see this field not moving forward in any meaningful way.

How do you create 1-2 floors of shared space without forcing some people out of their desks?

I am sitting at a Google desk and there are 5/6 people not here in the desks in my vicinity. I would prefer fewer desks and to actually get to sit next to people rather than being scattered among a sea of mostly empty desks due to peop

Scale AI does this by getting high quality labels. They also have built some tooling to inspect your labels using your models: https://dashboard.scale.com/nucleus

I think it's useful when you don't know what to search yet but are looking to solve a problem. For example, I am planning a wedding and I asked it to put together a rough budget for me and this helped me to prioritize where to spe

Sure, I’m just saying 20% time is still a thing though

Serving a request to one of their APIs requires orders of magnitude more compute than your typical web service

This is BS. ML targeted ads were the first application to make money and that happened a long long time ago (maybe 15 years at this point?). Nowadays there are a lot of products where ML is an essential feature.

Yes it’s even harder as you have to figure out which loudspeakers to trust!

Please explain how you could use pathology slides for ads? Does not seem possible.

The title is not correct and not supported by the article. The article clearly states that Google has not obtained any medical records. “Ultimately, even through negotiations, we were unable to find a pathway that we legally could do and et

In normal situations you don't need speech recognition, but to drive as well as a human in all possible situations you do. What if there is an emergency and there is a loudspeaker giving drivers instructions on how to turn around?

They certainly have their fair share of negative aspects that I wouldn’t want to integrate. To be more concrete one specific thing I would like to see more of in the US is some sort of change to the political process that would allow more e

I don’t believe that this voting bloc is actually voting in its best interests. The power rests more with the people who are able to manipulate it.

Wealth isn’t zero sum but power over law (as defined by who has influence over the rules we live by) is. When you have concentration of power due to concentration of wealth, the society will become unstable and undemocratic. So even though

It’s hard problem that can only be solved through attempts and iteration. The fact that a wealth tax is difficult is not a good enough reason to not try, because the problem of wealth inequality is so severe now.

Yes, every external force that has influenced the US is unique in some dimension. To me the biggest difference between China and Japan is that China is much more likely to challenge the US among all dimensions of power, whereas my understan

All I am saying is that it's a vast oversimplification of an economic and political system composed of over 1 billion people to simply say "it's capitalist". The overarching point here is that as China rises hopefully we

There is quite a lot of fear of China being ahead or getting ahead, and it is being exploited by tech companies to secure funding from the department of defense: https://t.co/7by2iroWWD
