This could be interesting but too vague for me to understand what you mean. Could it be explained more clearly, or link some blog entry?

Well, was the contract terminated? Saying no will sometimes have consequences, and the counterpart is sometimes unreasonable.

Similarly curious about this. The intuition I extracted: Let’s say we have 10 requests, where 9 of them take 1 second to complete but one that takes 100 seconds. The average time to complete a request is about 10 seconds, but if you experie

In this case it could be solved by not letting the LLM consume the transaction message. Effectively the same as preventing user supplied info going to the first argument of printf(). The transaction in question can remain opaque to the LLM

Curious about this take, how do you mean? I understand the point of distorted facts, but what I’m not sure how things are improved by basically having no trust in any facts?

This looks very interesting. Possible to get those rates without exotic hardware. But I have to say that the comparison is not really fair. Comparison is done with a 2 B model vs frontier models that are likely 100s of times larger. Also ta

Wow, this is really fascinating. And it reads like the intro of a sci-fi short.

This looks very cool, but it's not clear what it means. I wonder if it is captivating simply because it syncs cool graphics to audio, like those Winamp visualization filters in the old days.

Very interesting! Will definitely try this. Feedback: I think it would be beneficial to clarify that there is a trial at the top of the page. Currently we have download and buy buttons next to each other, which I assumed meant that the soft

Naively it seems odd that running multiple checks in parallel is faster than just running the autoregressive model multiple times in series. It’s the same amount of compute right? But I think the key is that in the standard autoregressive c

This is an amazing idea, and congrats on getting so far through it. I personally would be wary about fire. Custom electronics without experience, and then putting (assuming here) high energy density batteries in a soft toy handled by little

This is very interesting and exciting, but IMHO the comparisons read as a bit disingenuous with the other models at 16 bit weights. The 16 bit releases of the others models are not optimized for size, making it difficult to take the compar

Instead of anchoring the sun and thus noon at the top it would be interesting to have the sun move around the clock face as the year progresses. Noon then moves around as the year progresses. ”Up” could be said to point towards the center o

What they're saying is that the error for a vector increases with r, which is true. Trivially, with r=0, the error is 0, regardless of how heavily the direction is quantized. Larger r means larger absolute error in the reconstructed

This is cool. It makes storage of the KV cache much smaller, making it possible to keep more of it in fast memory. Bandwidth-wise it is worse (more bytes accessed) to generate and do random recall on than the vanilla approach, and significa

Tbh shrinking the image is probably the cheapest operation you can do that still lets every pixel influence the result. It’s just the average of all pixels, after suitable color conversion.

This is a very fun idea. Would also be very interesting to see if one could have a system where talking to an NPC could alter the world. One maybe obvious way would be that asking for rumors will actually creates the scenario that the NPC d

I think you’re implying that it would be useful to have the LLM predict the end of the speaker’s speech, and continue with its reply based on that. If, when the speaker actually stops speaking, there is a match vs predicted, the response ca

Yes, I believe the paradigm shift will be to not treat the code as particularly valuable, just like binaries today. Instead the value is in the input that can generate the code.

Hm the first statistic sounds pretty low 136 years That's how long Europeans collectively spent waiting for delayed trains in 2025. Is that just summing up each train's delay without taking number of passengers into account?
