It can be the case that both: - The physics of the universe can be completely modeled as computation, and - It's possible to pose undecidable problems about the way the universe un…

This was long before. Google had conversational LLMs before ChatGPT (though they weren’t as good in my recollection), and they declined to productize. There was a sense at the time…

Both would be understood and are roughly interchangeable. "Sequential" feels more appropriate to me for the task runner scenario where we wait for one task to finish before running…

You might be using JSON mode, which doesn’t guarantee a schema will be followed, or structured outputs not in strict mode. It is possible to get the property that the response is e…

Is it luck, or is scaling arithmetic genuinely a useful capability to offer the world?

I assume you know how to program in Python? I would start with just the client libraries of the model providers you want to use. LLMs are conceptually simple when treated as black …

I’m not as familiar with the Baby Bells, so this is a surprising comparison to me. Bell Labs was famously so productive while it had the monopoly money hose, and not as much came f…

Sounds more like Generation Augmented Retrieval in that case.

I don’t know of any public details on how they implement Context Caching, but that is presumably exactly what they are doing. Just caching the text would be a minimal savings.

The size of the cached internal state of the network processing the book is much larger than the size of the book. The resource that is preserved with caching is the compute requir…

I’m guessing there was an instrumental reason for this, for instance to check that the model was listening before launching into what they wanted to demo

There are many different rules of thumb on this floating around. 1g per lb of body weight is indeed something a number of well informed people recommend, but those people generally…

Cardio isn’t super important for what? It certainly has longevity benefits over and above those from resistance training.

Attention itself was the key idea of that paper and, as you sort of acknowledge, was definitely not just throwing things at the wall. It was the culmination of a long line of work …

The key feature of the NEC is that the cities are large and close together. This is true almost nowhere else in the country.

What does understanding and reasoning mean?

I'd love to be able to get a print of the map with a customized zoom level and origin point.

This is awesome! I'd love to be able to bookmark this with a specific starting location set in the URL.

You can achieve this without UUID keys if you attach UUIDs to the requests. This has the advantage of working for all kinds of mutating requests, not just creates, but requires tha…
