I'm working on a long-term project to better understand Operating Systems, video game development, and Rust by building the simplest possible OS in Rust that boots directly into a …

The author mentions that his father was in touch with a PE-backed chemical company a month before he passed, who re-engaged a month after- sounds like that might have been his succ…

Personally, I found looking at open source work to be much more instructive in learning about AI and how things like training data and such are done from the ground up. I suspect t…

You're right about Calhoun- I was actually referring to Dennis Muilenburg, the CEO who was fired in 2019 after the two 737 MAX crashes and the subsequent groundings. My comment was…

Personally, I think the issue isn't one of degrees or qualifications, but rather one of values. The CEO prior to this one (Muilenburg) also had degrees in Aerospace Engineering, bu…

I remember someone telling me that they thought of luck as being as one of four kinds: - blind luck (which is what people usually mean by "luck") - stirring the pot (if you apply t…

It's also interesting to think that IBM released an 8-trillion parameter model back in the 1980s [0]. Granted it was an n-gram model so it's not exactly an apples-to-apples compari…

Thank you for sharing- upon reflection I should have been looking for primary source evidence like this instead of reading too deeply into Wikipedia pages, as someone else pointed …

I think you're right and I clearly read too much into the Wikipedia pages, instead of looking for more primary source documents like those others have posted. I will be more carefu…

I found some discrepancies when reading deeper into Mistral that felt a bit peculiar. If you look at the Wikipedia page for Mistral AI [1] it lists the company as having 3 founders…

I still remember discovering & using numba for the first time in university. At the time I didn't know any programming languages except for Python, and wasn't super great at Python…

This paper analyzed ~14,000 users and I'm wondering if that's a big enough sample size considering there are 350M or so users on Twitter? Is there a statistics test you could use t…

For companies like Twitch or Kick, how much do layoffs like these affect the actual streamers? (Like are the layoffs usually accompanied by them reducing the streamer's revenue sha…

Try the "historical papers" on this repo: https://github.com/aimerou/awesome-ai-papers And also you can find papers with their implementations in code here: http://paperswithcode.c…

In case you're unsure which papers would be good to implement, here's a nice GitHub repo: https://github.com/aimerou/awesome-ai-papers Try out the "historical papers"! :)

Focusing on Deep Learning specifically: - Most LLMs currently use the transformer architecture. You can learn about this visually ( https://bbycroft.net/llm ), or through this blog…

So if I'm understanding this correctly: The SAM paper from this past April (that let you do zero-shot segmentation on any image, seemingly better than even OpenAI's CLIP) was using…

A lot of people are taught Excel early on in school. I wonder if this would result in more people learning or being introduced to Python at an early age?

This is what works for me so far: - This repo has a list of important papers at the end of every week: https://github.com/dair-ai/ML-Papers-of-the-Week - The best papers are usuall…

I think the 8 trillion parameters is accurate- Tangora is an N-gram model with a vocab size of 20,000 words and N = 3. Parameters for an N-gram model = V^(N-1) * (V-1) Plugging in …
