Many of them use this tool: https://www.fastbuild.org/docs/home.html It's was built and is regularly maintained by a Riot Games principal C++ architect, and automatically compiles …

I worked with a fairly large code base which leveraged threads to avoid having to use callbacks in a C++ code base. This allowed the engineers to use the more familiar linear progr…

Paleo-dunes reminds me of when I was gobsmacked when I learned the kilometers deep sandstone deposits in Grand Canyon and Grand Staircase (Coconino and Navajo other sandstone forma…

Together serves models optimized for inference speed. They're not Groq but Together (and Perplexity Labs) have the lowest latencies and fastest tokens per second of any commercial …

I have this hooked up experimentally to my universal Dungeon Master simulator DungeonGod and it seems to work quite well. I had been using Together AI Mixtral (which is serving the…

Fastbuild https://www.fastbuild.org/docs/home.html is the free distributed compilation system many game companies use. The combination of automatic unity builds (simply appending m…

What LLM's are doing when they imagine playing chess is what we do when we stand up after sitting on the floor, or what we do when we see a few million individual samples of color …

It micro-sleeps. As far as the AI knows no time passes during the periods when it's not answering. And it experiences a form of amnesia when the chat is over. A "50 first dates" bo…

Homework as in: 1. Actually hands on testing the AI to verify that it can't do the things you claim or believe it can't do. 2. Review of the current literature where these LLMs hav…

I would recommend getting an account and simply testing it directly. It's fairly easy to demonstrate that it operates at a conceptual level and is not merely predicting word probab…

There's also the question of ethics. Some of these LLM's regularly profess that they are sentient (Bing for example regularly does). We don't "think" these are valid but at this po…

I think the consensus at this point is that these models are much closer to AGI than anyone thought they could or should be, and that the delta between what we have now and AGI is …

I tried Chomsky's counterfactual apple questions with Chat GPT. It was able to infer counterfactuals about apples or any sort of physical object, both forwards and backwards in tim…

Premature optimization may be the root of all evil. But failing to architect an application from the start for reasonable performance and scalability is the premature root of all o…
