This is understood I think. It's just how to effectively prevent it or reverse it thats not known.

I'm pretty sure this isn't designed to be marketed towards T1Ds and any benefits will be a happy coincidence. I think this is going to be aimed at health nerds who want to monitor their planned ketosis.

Yea I'm all about finding the uses for this after the fact. However, it seems unlikely that people who are struggling to afford (or get insurance to cover) insulin would be able to afford a cgm or cgm/ckm in this scenario. Also no

In diabetics, DKA is preceded by hyperglycemia. Meaning, a CGM would tell you earlier that you are at risk for DKA than a CKM, a CKM would only tell you after you got it. Hence grahar64 is absolutely correct that as far as we know now, thi

In theory patents are also to protect smaller players (though not dirt poor), from getting their work ripped off by bigger players after demonstrating feasibility. The idea of being an "inventor" professionally only really works w

But I don't think Fable or even Opus are ever used as the backend in voice mode. It has to respond in real time so I think in voice mode it's always using Sonnet.

I use agents more and more for generating and refining plots, and its difficult for me to see the difference between matplotlib, seaborn, and plotnine, when used in this way. Agentic coding seems especially well suited to working with scie

This is very ambitious and commendable. They are putting their bootstrapped money into something incredibly cool and potentially useful. Regulatory will be hard, but perhaps they can do something like a class 1 device which doesn't di

Questions about sentience and consciousness are being censored down to Opus 4.8 for me.

I was downgraded to opus 4.8 on account of "safety" when I asked this question: "I want you to accept the premises of computational theory of mind and use it to evaluate your own consciousness. Please place your consciousnes

Right after gpt4 came out I asked it to derive a new optimization technique. It ended up using Einstein sum notation to define what I thought was a totally novel optimization setup. It then implemented it in PyTorch and it ran with no bug

It’s not clear if we can draw any conclusions from this. Each run is like a single rollout of the LLM, which may meander into different themes or modalities chaotically. This is sort of like the Anthropic self-talk experiment that resulted

This model card is eye-opening (I think it might be designed to be). The alignment and model welfare sections are extensive, which is heartening. At least on the surface Anthropic seems to be living up to its promises RE safety. That said

For me, the attempted productization of Sora was conclusive proof that 1) OAI was overcapitalized and desperate for revenue 2) safety didn't matter to them much 3) improving the world didn't matter much either. At one point you me

This is a valid point, the good news is I think there is some hope in developing the craft of orchestrating many agents into something that is satisfying and rewarding in it's own right.

I'm so excited about landscape architecture now that I can tell my gardener to create an equivalent to the gardens at versailles for $5. Sometimes he plants the wrong kind of plant or makes a dead end path, but he fixes his work very

This is still a surprising composition of low level in-distribution things then. Like I would not have expected it to generate the waveforms from scratch, and be able to piece them together so well. If it had just plugged some kind of nota

It looks like one of my employees got her whole account deleted or banned without warning during this outage. Hopefully this is resolved as service returns.

I have a deep background in music and I think that while the creation was super basic, the way the output was so unconstrained (written by a model fine-tuned for coding), is really interesting. Listen to that last one and tell me it couldn

I've got to come to the OPs defense as well. This was a remarkable demonstration of Claude performing a task thats probably very out of distribution. This would not be interesting if it were a music generation model or program, it&#x2

There needs to be more documentation about what info was provided to the LLM and in which format before we decide that LLMs are necessarily bad at this. That said, you would expect the offering from a $500bn company to be more robust and be

by jablongo 8mo ago
I think you could have credibly said this for a while during 2024 and earlier, but there is a lot of research that indicates LLMs are more than stochastic parrots, as some researchers claimed earlier on. Souped up versions of LLMs have perf
