I put a 5 dollar phone-holder-ring on the back of my kindle, problem solved.

In a maximally earnest way — to what degree should we be sure these language harms are real on net? Are there data as opposed to anecdata? (Of course many phenomena are real without data; we can just be more confident in cases with data)

This is also a nice way to combine the ratings of a number of noisy annotators with variable annotations noise.

This is not work by any of the high profile new hires, in case folks are confused.

Lillian’s blog is extremely good in general & if it’s new to you I suggest checking out the other posts also. I particularly enjoyed the one on human data.

right, but you definitely shouldn’t be using any other formatter than ruff and this helps with that

Isn’t the answer to the question just classic economies of scale? You can’t run GPT4 for yourself because the fixed costs are high. But the variable costs are low, so OAI can serve a shit ton. Or equivalently the smallest available unit of

You can dream of better yet! If the spec was required to be open source for the government project, then you could have commercial choices and some less feature rich open source version.

I feel the AI safety community has not made enough of Lehrer’s masterpiece on the topic: https://youtu.be/frAEmhqdLFs?si=DYsY5Juco-kJ5eWD

It takes Tim Gowers more than hour and a half to go through q4! (Sure, he could go faster without video. But Tim Gowers! An hour and a half!!)

It’s interesting that this is a competition elite enough that several posters on a programming website don’t seem to understand what it is. My very rough napkin math suggests that against the US reference class, imo gold is literally a one

Great follow-up work from OpenAI on this: https://openai.com/index/emergent-misalignment/

Why is the method called sendOnce? It’s send with a capacity limiter / semaphore right, so what about it is Once?

This is great! I have daydreamed about how to do a more complex algo: instead of character speed and frequency you could do bi-character speed/frequency/error rate and probably improve over keybr further.

“bad” seems fine?

This article is quite bad: haughty in tone and confused in content. If you are interested in learning something about a key part subject matter (compounding loopholes and their impact on drug prices), this article is much better: https:&#x

I get motion sick more easily than most, and a Waymo is much much smoother than a typical uber driver. I am happy to pay a fairly large time&momey premium for this.

I saw your comment and counted — in May I took a Waymo thirty times.

One could train a language model to predict task difficulty (and other parameters) here, which would be great for the initialisation of new cards

with a bad ai it is pointless, with a good ai it is powerful. codex-1 has been quite good in my experience

It is a cost benefit trade off, as with all things. Benefits look pretty good.

Did you get help from ChatGPT ooi? The humour sounds a bit like modern ChatGPT style but it’s uncanny valley.

I think your threat model is bad — the isolation of accounts offers little and most people have effectively only the security of their email provider anyway. That said, buying several keys would be a natural and happy path solution for the

I know this was sarcasm, but bank card is not appropriate because you should have one hardware key for all services produced by an independent provider.

You only need one, plus a couple recovery spares, in any sane implementation.
