This is exactly what we need to enable true embodied AGI - think “mirror neurons” but for robotics. General-purpose humanoid robots capable of interfacing with our physical world will be one of humanity’s most pivotal innovations. * [If you

Anyone know if they're using TPUs for inference? It'll be real interesting if they're not bottlenecked by Nvidia chips.

A former colleague of mine is at Meta thanks to this exact strategy. There are also apparently leaked question banks available to facilitate the process!

The difference is, we're soon going to have autonomous agents that do all the PRs for us.

It's astounding just how quiet EV's are; they can make you hyperaware of other noises (hence why this page exists).

IMO, one of the most interesting problem spaces is in cooperative behaviors between autonomous agents.

Remember, about a month ago Sam posted a comment along the lines of "AI will be capable of superhuman persuasion well before it is superhuman at general intelligence, which may lead to very strange outcomes". The board was likely

If we achieve AGI it has the potential to capture most (if not all) economic value. Larry Summers was a deliberate choice indeed.

Yes, however they’ll be shielded from lawsuits from OpenAI at Microsoft.

This is unfortunate, and likely stems from the recent accident that caused the loss of their CA license suspension, which may have jeopardized their upcoming fundraising. Perhaps Kyle will end up on the OpenAI board.

What I find incredibly odd is the lack of a Microsoft board seat, considering their large ownership in OpenAI. Something does not add up.

I don’t think this is necessarily what happened (the CFO would certainly be implicated and it appears they were spared).

Are you noticing this with the API too? I’ve observed inconsistencies in response time via API (v4-T)

Precisely. I do utilize coworking spaces quite a bit, however I tend to go in on days where I don't have many calls scheduled. Also, my home office setup (ultra wide external monitor + 4K external camera and mic etc) wins when I actual

McKinsey sells the "idea" that they're experts that know what they're doing, rather than actually doing a good job.

The adaptation of "The Night Manager" is excellent IMO. It's a miniseries of sorts (only 6 episodes), however Hugh Laurie & Tom Hiddleston deliver top-notch performances. It's available on Prime Video and other strea

That's per flight. Invest in a pair of noise-cancelling headphones and it will pay for itself. Personally, I can't imagine air travel without them.

If it happens to be AMD, there are promising new treatments in testing. This was just posted today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37295409

I’ve been a longtime Nvidia investor (since ~2014 or so) and have no plans on selling anytime soon. Their market dominance will be tough to unseat, and the only other company making strides in silicon is Apple.

How this compare to just running llama.cpp locally?

I wonder if they allow opting-out. My last company was in the healthcare space, and we used Zoom for all internal communication. Often this could contain sensitive information (PII etc) which would likely be a privacy violation if exposed.

Also, if you dine in you generally spend 25%+ markup (tip, service charges etc).

Something incredible to note: it took around 5 years from when the transistor was first developed, to when it started to get integrated into consumer goods. LK-99 appears promising (and at the very least, may lead to other tangentially inte

A couple of years ago I had built a product for health systems in the computer vision space - and ran into the challenge of trying to commercialize it (with no luck). Even if the product/technology is excellent, the regulatory hurdles

The greatest thing about technology is that it will ultimately enable superabundance. We have a duty to leverage technology for the greater good of humanity & civilization.

This is usable, but hopefully folks manage to tweak it a bit further for even higher tokens/s. I’m running Llama.cpp locally on my M2 Max (32 GB) with decent performance but sticking to the 7B model for now.

This is pretty much to go head-to-head with Apple (and Samsung). Both are making leaps and strides using “neural coprocessors” and the like for running models on mobile hardware. Mobile edge computing is where we’re going to see a lot of us

by synaesthesisx 3y ago
Exactly. Apple is likely to take the edge computing approach (in fact, they already do - try searching your iPhone's photo library for "sports car" or "cat"; I'm fairly certain this all happens on-device using
