Which part of SB1047 do you think is too onerous or not "slow regulation" enough?

This is a forum post from a student with 18 total karma

Zero chance private github repos make it into openai training data, can you imagine the shitshow if GPT-4 started regurgitating your org's internal codebase?

Automatic kernel fusion (compilation) is a very active field, and most major frameworks support some easy-to-use compilation (e.g. jax's jit, or torch.compile which iirc uses opena…

The median OAI employee with a 900k comp is probably L5, not L6 or L7

New hires' comp is much higher than existing employees', especially if you've hit your cliff. 7 figures for E6 can happen if you joined recently, have good counter-offers, and nego…

All engineers and researchers, even junior, are "Member of Technical Staff" at OAI

> the company pushed back against a proposed amendment to the AI Act that would have classified generative AI systems such as ChatGPT and Dall-E as “high risk” if they generated te…

Character has their own models, and anecdotally I've heard they have one of the better LM training codebases out there.

Openai is probably the highest status employer among my network, but I don't know any university students

Andrej's "Building Makemore" series is exactly this, it includes a wonderful lecture where he computes all the gradients for a simple network by hand and compares them against the …

minGPT prioritized being understandable above all else, and was not very fast. This repo includes several optimizations, but it still much more understandable than probably any oth…

Anecdotally, chatgpt seems much worse to me than Google for getting correct answers. Like orders of magnitude worse. Tells me the wrong timezone for a city kind of bad. No doubt it…

This looks very nice but no android support is unfortunately a dealbreaker

Signal boosting in case anyone from notion is reading: please address performance, it is practically the only thing I care about. I love the product but it is almost unusably slow …

The "scandal" that prompted this article is referenced with sources under the heading "Why XCheck is in the news". Neither the article nor the comment you're replying to says anyth…

It's a position paper, academics publish them all the time, they're very much a part of scientific discourse. Just different than an experimental results paper.

are there any continuous calendars like the linked one that allow sync or import from google cal?

The author is a skilled research scientist in a very competitive space with some high-profile publications (e.g. Gumbel Softmax). He is absolutely an outlier, but not a unicorn -- …

Curious, are there benefits of greenway connections compared to allocating the same amount of green space elsewhere?

Is there any evidence that GPT-3 responses are edited/filtered before being returned to users? My understanding is that some GPT-3 responses are annotated post-hoc, and this data i…

As of a few years ago, lidar added at least $7500 to the cost of a car. That's a huge price difference for a consumer.

Not even mentioning Pluribus is just bad journalism

As someone who has had to reproduce others' research results: it is much much better to release the unclean, unorganized code that actually produced your results than it is to rele…
