Are there any resources anyone could share that explain how LLMs can do things like design functioning circuits from next token prediction? I am totally baffled by how the models can complete so many varied and complex tasks without an actu

Ha, is it just me or does a “residential proxy network” sound like a fancy way of saying “botnet”?

Is this HN? Aren't people supposed to tinker with tech for no reason other than seeing if they can? Is everything that involves a transformer now just AI BAD? Is that what the world has devolved into? Each side screaming "Orange M

Thank you for the considered response. Do you know the name of the channel the video was on? Searching youtube for ‘developing taste’ returns too many videos and I don’t know where to start.

This is a pathetic take. 1) Life is short and shortcuts and avoiding work are not inherently the wrong path to take. 2) Is the code you've almost certainly had an LLM write for you in the past a sign that you have low moral character a

It doesn't matter. The site is fine.

At least you didn’t over-react. Some people seem so afraid of consuming AI-generated content that they see it everywhere. A popular YouTuber says “thanks for the pushback” in a YouTube video and has the mob at his door, instantly, despite i

Genuine question: What is the difference between overfat and overweight? Isn’t the extra weight in an overweight person comprised of fat?

I edited in that i’d already looked up the code in the manual seconds after submitting the post, so you clearly just ignored that bit to rage.

Anecdotally, my 81 year old father was able to point his phone at the boiler and ask Gemini what the error message meant. It correctly identified the boiler model, identified the error code being displayed on the screen, explained what it m

It’s steam, not stream. Normally, I’d assume it’s a simple typo, but I got worried when you wrote it twice. Fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me… you can't get fooled again.

I think to claim that 2000 years ago there was one person who performed miracles and/or healed people that nobody else could, with no actual evidence it was done and nobody else has been able to do it since, you need a better response

As soon as I read that I literally scoffed. Doublethink at its finest. Doubleplusungood.

Is that how it should work? The worst of us can’t be trusted to to behave appropriately in one area of life, therefore everyone must be banned from it?

I have so many questions... How many exit tunnels will need to exist for the final above-ground stage of the trip to be quick and not increase the total length of the route significantly? If there are exit tunnels all over the place, how lo

Honestly. for the ~2 months my mum had between a totally out-of-the-blue stage 4 melanoma diagnosis and the day she died in the hospice, I don’t think there’s anything she would have wanted less than to endure more of that existence, if som

Please don’t turn this place into reddit with a race to the bottom for postings puns or “jokes” that are little more than pointing out hollow pop culture associations to a word in the title of the submission. It’s already happening more an

Are you able to share any details about how you found the healthcare advocate or who I could talk to about it? It's just me and my dad now with some of my cousins between 2 and 4 hours away, so when my dad is on his way out I'm qu

This is what both my parents and myself did. When my mum was diagnosed with Stage 4 melanoma, it was one less thing to worry about arranging and trying to find money for. She went from diagnosis to death in two months so things were a bit d

I was just responding to your claim that nobody wants them, when that's demonstrably not true. VR is like Linux, it will never be used by the masses for the foreseeable future as there's just to much friction in using it. There is

I make a point of downloading sitcoms in SD, creating my own DVD rips if needed. There's something wrong about watching Seinfeld or Friends in 1080p.

I don’t consider “raison d'etre" a suspicious phrase. It’s not something people use multiple times a day, but I’d consider it common enough that when I hear someone say it, or in this case I suppose type it, that I would give it a

The NES was pretty popular in the UK, wasn’t it? In our solidly working-class home, we had a NES. I remember getting Super Mario Bros 3 for christmas one year and so did many of my friends at school, who all lived in semi-detached two-bedro
