a) 2022 is not too long ago b) this was a first important step to usable ai but not scalable. I'd say "RL training" is not the same as RLHF.

Many EVs are actually priced competitively for their specific segment. The issue is that there are 5-10 y/o used ICE cars that are obviously much cheaper, and EVs are generally short right now, so used prices are up.

I haven't been to india myself, but giving the UK as a low cost of living example is laughable

My experience is opposite to what you described. I got into faang with minimal leetcode grind and didn't have to jump many hoops. The career move not only removed the unnecessary bureaucracy from my daily activities and tools, but also

EVs might be less efficient, but not by multiple orders of magnitude. A google search indicates about 5.8 to 125 Wh/km per person. I don't think traveling with trains changes the overall travel time by much, even though they do go

I don't know about tesla since I haven't had a chance to drive one yet, but the number of bugs especially in the interface but also in driver's "assistance" in other cars(VW, BMW) makes me doubt that it makes a noti

No good solution existing doesn't mean we should implement useless measures that restrict freedom. Assuming a similar percentage of car washes and hairdressers launder money( similar to how many >10k cash transactions are for money

I agree with the sentiment in this case, and I do think 10k is ridiculously low for this restriction and the premise of this helping money laundering doesn't sound very convincing to me. But this strawman is IMO the weakest possible ar

I wouldn't be too sure. Of course this is anecdotal, but the one Startup that actually replied to my application and said that they were about to make an offer just said they were implementing a hiring freeze as well. I might just not

Do you have data/studies for either side? Genuinely interested in this, because intuitively it makes sense - sleep deprivation amplifies emotions - but I also have experienced first hand that long term sleep deprivation slowly deterior

Also non-US? Compensation band would be outstanding for European standards. Also, are the LLM/RL/Rewards requirements binding or can I just apply with any ML knowledge or even just interest?

Does Remote US mean only US applicants or are you also open to, say, a night owl from Europe?

Coming from Germany, I was shocked at the property prices in the UK. Living here for a short while, it seems to me that cost of living at a certain standard is higher than or at least similar to many parts of the US, while salaries are clos
