That is why I like the way Raku handles it. It has distinct .chars .codes and .bytes that you can specify depending on the use case. And if you try to use .length is complains aski…

It is not about what the model tells you. This paper shows an emergent world model in an LLM that was taught to play otello moves https://ar5iv.labs.arxiv.org/html/2210.13382 https…

LLMs do have explicit world models that can be even manipulated. There are many recent papers on the subject.

Please see my reply to parent. > "fusion by 1990 instead of 2000..." Those three dots are omitting the most important part of the issue if we spend that much extra money on R&D In …

I don't think this contradicts the AGI prediction though (nor the "Fusion by 1990 with a bit of extra investment" prediction for that matters) https://external-preview.redd.it/LkKB…

This paper from late last year shows that LLMs are not "just" stochastic parrots, but they actually build an internal model of the "world" that is not programmed in, just from tryi…

Your comment reminded me of this article: Humans Who Are Not Concentrating Are Not General Intelligences https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/4AHXDwcGab5PhKhHT/humans-who...

Raku seems to be more correct (DWIM) in this regard than all the examples given in the post... my \emoji = "\c[FACE PALM]\c[EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE-3]\c[ZERO WIDTH JOINER]\…

As far as I understand in this specific case yes. The whole schtick of GPT-3 is the insight that we do not need to come up with a better algorithm than GPT-2. If we dramatically in…

There is no indication that it was "the judiciary's decision" to store it "near a major population center". That's a story floated by the head of customs to try and shift the blame…

Off the top of my head: Concurrency and parallelism using high level and low level APIs. There is no GIL. Grammars which are like regular expressions on steroids for parsing. ( adm…

That is exactly what the main architect of the compiler has been working on for the past couple of years. Performance has been enhanced by a few factors since it was released in 20…

hey @dirkstrauss The leading image in the article is an unnecessarily huge 22 megabytes png image that can be resized and converted to jpeg without any noticeable loss of quality.

I thought it was interesting that the reports mentions some devices are compromised at the phone repair shop right after being repaired.

The new addition to maps is about doing that manually when you need to, with extra features like how many minutes left on the parking meter.

There is a typo in the about page, under "2013 Open-Source Donations", "Crytocat" should be "Cryptocat".

The sensitive data that was saved in that address is still there. Memory has been freed so the os can use is again but the actual data is still there is memory untill get get overw…

It seems to me he is just manipulating the DCS of the SMS being sent. This is standard behavior according to the GSM SMS specs. http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_gts/03/0338/05.00.0…
