How does this differ from e.g. online banking? Does every user manually check encryption algorithms and keys?

Don't know why this is downvoted. It is possible (and probably desirable) to build applications where only certain data is stored on chain.

Alignment refers to the process of aligning AI with human values. I don't see why a superhuman AI would require different prompting than is in use today.

I'm much more interested in lower parameter models that are optimized to punch above their weight. There is already interesting work done in this space with Mistral and Phi. I see research coming out virtually every week trying to addr

What is with the misinformation. The original Verge article says (with no given sources): > missing a key 5PM PT deadline by which many OpenAI staffers were set to resign. The tweet removes the qualifier: > The staff at OpenAI set a 5

> Microsoft doesn’t have ownership rights to OpenAI IP. They license it. Honest question, do you have a source for that? Is it conceivable that Microsoft has some clause that grants them direct access to IP if OpenAI does not meet certai

Equating Ilya to the average B.S. in Computer Science is like equating Sam to a used car salesman. Neither are true and both were instrumental in the success of OpenAI.

Parent comment is on the right track. It sounds like you want to fine tune an llm to mimic the conversation style between you and your friend. Then you can use a general embedding model to implement RAG so that the application can "rec
