“Our employee pushed bad code by accident” is VASTLY better for them than “we didn’t secure the infra that pushes updates to millions of machines”.

I didn’t say it was 50/50, but an accurate enumeration of options does include a failed attempt at a hack. I fail to see why this is so difficult to understand.

You do remember Solarwinds right? This is an obvious high value target, so it is reasonable to entertain malicious causes. Given the number of systems infected, if you could push c…

The spoiling is a feature, it encourages trade and spending. Truly an economic boost you wouldn’t believe.

Was somebody trying to install an exploit or back door and fucked up?

Ten eggs per power, obviously.

To be fair, I’m not sure how many straw men will get you a pint at most public houses these days. I’m only familiar with egg-to-pint exchange ratios, but then again most of my pers…

The cash is subject to inflation and poor central banking decisions. To be really safe, let’s just go back to a barter system. Just bring five eggs to the pub and get a pint.

I asked Google Assistant to give me the prime factorization of an integer. It gave me the right answer, but it was because it happened to a webpage that had that number as an examp…

This is like 200x more complicated setup than just running Ollama.

Scores are also interesting in that you can get 1.0 match on a classification task, but if the model is dog shit it’s 1.0 of dog shit. I’m still struggling with the degree to which…

I would say everybody smart is doing that, but a lot of the dumb money in AI right now is just wrappers on the GPT API That makes for a flashy demo with no underlying substance or …

512 has been sufficient to solve my problems. I had done some initial attempts with BigBird that weren’t going well, but then realized I didn’t really need it. I may revisit at som…

Indexing in Postgres is legitimately painful, I don’t think “get moar ram” is a good response to that particular critique.

Document classification in highly ambiguous contextual space. Solving some specific large scale classification tasks, so multi million document sets.

Product in stealth for a little bit longer, so can’t say much. :-)

The article mentions T5 and translation is something T5 is supposedly good at - just sharing I was less than impressed.

Shhh, don’t tell everybody the secret. ;-)

I tried some large scale translation tasks with T5 and results were iffy at best. I’m going to try the same task with the newest Mistral small models and compare. My guess is Mistr…

Maybe in SOTA ml/nlp research, but in the world of building useful tools and products, BERT models are dead simple to tune, work great if you have decent training data, and most im…

We’ve got three operating systems, three giant cloud providers, and a near monoculture of browser engines. It’s not great, even if it could be worse.

You, you can write a prompt in English, give it French, and get an accurate answer in English even with the original Mistral. Still blows my mind we came so far so fast.

I don’t see any indication this beats Llama3 70B, but still requires a beefy GPU, so I’m not sure the use case. I have an A6000 which I use for a lot of things, Mixtral was my go-t…

So you got a pile of “ai” and a pile of “real” and did a binary classifier?

Yup, I’m having these issues and my next purchases are going to be AMD.
