    I was trying to distance myself from this situation, but this is just too painful to read. I am sincerely sorry that people have harassed you on my behalf, but I have no control ov…

    So because ChatGPT exists now, less experienced programmers will be hired to developed critical software under the assumption that they can use ChatGPT to fill the gaps in their kn…

    What is the issue with the GDPR? If OpenAI is violating the GDPR, why should European governments ignore it?

    I would trust ChatGPT code about as much as I trust the code produced by any human. All the Therac-25 code was written by a human, so what is the argument here exactly? At least wh…

    Price controls and rationing go hand in hand. Ultimately the goal is to ensure that everybody is able to acquire the goods that they need to survive. We are not talking about luxur…

    I used it for a while but I found that too many suggestions are worthless and having to consider them makes me waste more time than just writing the code myself. For the things tha…

    Most likely yes. I bought a new 980 Pro 2TB a few weeks ago and it came with the latest firmware. Manufacture date is Jan 2023. The firmware is already more than a year old so unle…

    Could you share what you did to convert the models? The mirrors aren't very reliable and it would be good to have it documented somewhere. There is some discussion about this at ht…

    The llama models were trained with a context size of 2048. By default llama.cpp limits it to 512, but you can use -c 2048 -n 2048 to get the full context window.

    llama.cpp is using RTN at the moment.

    The python implementation[1] ran some tests using the same quantization algorithm as llama.cpp (4 bit RTN). 1: https://github.com/qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa

    What are you comparing it to? Without instruction tuning and a two character prompt "He" I am not sure why you would expect it to perform any better.

    The (quantized) 13B model is 7.6 GB on disk and the program uses around 8 GB to run. It runs without hitting the swap with just 9 GB assigned to WSL2.

    They have recently merged support for x86. I get 230ms/token on the 13B model on a 8 core 9900k under WSL2.

    Of course, in practice that is not a possibility for most people. You can't just choose to work hourly if nobody is willing to hire you on these terms. Without regulation the balan…

    Is there anything about sitting in a line manufacturing electronics that requires 12 hours shifts?

    I see many comments here every day that would get anyone instantly banned from most of the biggest subreddits. However, I think that most people would agree that this place is a lo…

    That's not my experience, but maybe it is my adblocker hiding the Chrome ads. You can't even use the chat feature in bing with firefox without spoofing the user agent.

    Wasn't expecting to see Adam Ragusea here. He has a popular youtube cooking channel nowadays.

    I wonder how this is implemented in the GPU. From my time working on a 3D renderer a long time ago, triangles with offscreen vertices would be clipped into smaller triangles, so in…

    Isn't this problem solved with a chiplet design like AMD does? Just manufacture the SRAM using an older and cheaper node and keep the logic in the most advanced node.

    Seeing the performance of implementations like FlexGen [1], I don't think it would be entirely unreasonable to run a 13B model on a single GPU for personal usage purposes. You are …
