    Not a fair comparison IMO. Jax is low level library used to make ML frameworks while pytorch is a full blow ML framework. In terms of is it worth using it - that depends on what yo…

    Nice effort. Would love to see more open source work from tech companies in this space. I remember working on a healthcare product (which involved HL7) years ago and it was a pain.…

    A lot of concepts first seen in Fortran, or popularized by Fortran are now in other languages or making their way there. In my personal opinion, even if you will never use Fortran …

    I don't think it's a smart idea to build any serious business using a tech that you can't replace. ChatGPT is great tool to help with coding for example but it's by no means substi…

    I don't even care if it's reproducible or not. I care it gives me correct responses to my questions and that's all.

    I'm confused why people expect this stuff to be free? I'm surprised OpenAI was so open about their research so far. I don't blame them at all for not publishing the information. Th…
