The skill is in creating the training data in the first place. Training a model is hardly a skill. It’s more like playing Tamagotchi—check on it once in a while to make sure it hasn’t died, and guess at ways to make it happier in the future

I see a lot of confident assertions of this type (LLMs don’t actually understand anything, cannot be creative, cannot be conscious, etc.), but never any data to substantiate the claim. This recent paper suggests that recent LLMs may be acqu

This is an untrue regurgitated talking point, I’m afraid. I just now asked ChatGPT to: simulate an Oxford style debate between “both sides” (fossil fuels / renewables), summarize the pro fossil fuel points in the form of a list, and t

We data scientists are well-known for our exclusive mastery data wrangling arcana, like… df = pandas.read_parquet(‘foo.parquet’) df.to_csv(‘foo.csv’) df.to_json(‘foo.json’) (no sarcasm)—how could it be simpler than that? What pro

To echo every other comment here: $400K+ / 540sqft = $740/sqft, which is beyond astronomical. That’s on par with the most expensive neighborhoods in the most expensive cities in the US (e.g. Georgetown, DC). But if you like the de
