    I am a long-time user of stackoverflow with 16k points, and even I got all my questions of the last five years downvoted into oblivion.

    Nuclear-powered ion thrusters could solve this issue. They provide low acceleration for a long time consuming very little consumable. This would allow the telescope to stay at the …

    Yes, it would work.

    I am working in Mistral robotics team. I confirm this is map-less. The only inputs are the text prompt and the front camera rgb image.

    Cloud models can use batch processing which is significantly more efficient. A local model has basically a batch of one which takes as much time to process as a batch of 100 becaus…

    If they are worried about firearms, why don't they target CNC mills rather than 3d printer? Can you even make a firearm in plastic? Some US company specialize in selling CNC mills …

    I have done that at meta/FAIR and it is published in the Llama 3 paper. You usually start from a seed. It can be a randomly picked piece of website/code/image/table of contents/use…

    Looks awesome. Can we get the same thing for pytorch?

    There is a manga/anime about this: doctor stone. For the knowledge preservation, I guess that a copy of deepseek has most of the required information. But, it would be hard to run …

    But we have landfills which are full of great raw materials. I would argue that it is easier to collect steel from a landfill than from a mine during the industrial revolution.

    I had one for years. Never had overheating issues, except if I put it on my blanket for long.

    The asus zenbook pro is great. The 16inch version is not really bulky. It is 2.4kg, 2TB, 3.2k resolution, great design and build quality. $2200 The 14.5 inch version is 1.6kg, 2TB,…

    Come on... Meta has been refining pytorch for more than a decade. It basically contains all that you need to train LLMs, including the latest technologies. What more do you need? T…

    The reasoning happens in the chain of thoughts. But OpenAI (aka ClosedAI) doesn't show this part when you use the o1 model, whether through the API or chat. They hide it to prevent…

    Training a 1B model on 1T tokens is cheaper than people might think. A H100 GPU can be rented for 2.5$ per hour and can train around 63k tokens per second for a 1B model. So you wo…

    But, if the non-profit gives all its assets to the new legal entity, shouldn't the new legal entity be taxed heavily? The gift tax rate goes up to 40% in the US. And 40% of the val…

    Except that a plane has passengers. But this rocket had none. It did not even have cargo. And it crashed in a pre-evacuated zone. There is no need to have the same level of securit…

    Counter-intuitively, larger models are cheaper to train. However, smaller models are cheaper to serve. At first, everyone was focusing on training, so the models were much larger. …

    Most SMBs would be able to run it. This is already a huge win for decentralized AI.

    In French, it is called the "hidden face of the Moon", obviously because we cannot see it from the Earth point of view.

    The most important paper to understand this issue is "Sacling Laws of Neural Language Models" by Open AI in 2020 [1]. Many consider it the most important paper that predicted the h…

    > The training for Phi-2 took 14 days on 96 A100 GPUs This would mean that it costs around ~30k USD to train. If training an LLM becomes cheaper than buying a car, it could democra…
