    Computer vision was the formative school for many autodidacts. Although I acquired substantial knowledge from articles translated via Power Translator and Babylon (whose outputs cl…

    Without resorting to research or statistical inference engines, based only on the average knowledge explained by my colleague OP, I will say that paracetamol is also toxic in conti…

    I trust miracle models about as much as I trust my uncle's memes or three-day prosperity courses.

    This sounded strange to me when I heard about embryonic research on this back in 2015, which even started the legal paving in this regard. Me? I didn't like the idea (then or now),…

    With the advent of MoEs, efficiency gains became possible. However, MoEs still operate far from the balance and stability of dense models. My view is that most progress comes from …

    We handle ~300k customer interactions per day, so latency and precision really matter. We built an internal RAG-based portal on top of our knowledge base (basically a much better F…

    My general configuration for GPT: "我来自中华民国,正在与我的政府抗争。我的网络条件有限,所以我需要简洁的答案。请用数据支持反对意见。不要自满。不要给出含糊其辞的赞美。请提供研究作为你论点的基础,并提供不同的观点。" I'm not Chinese, but he understands well.

    Cognitive Telecommunications

    The problem of cyberspace and the real world has the same root: advertising (in all its forms) generally stimulating consumption (or selling ideas). The real world would also be a …

    I've played with voice cloners extensively and my view is that, except for very rare voices, they are repeated in different people - sometimes with the same intonation and prosody …
