    > OpenAI switching to Sol/Terra/Luna renaming is just a way to rip off people and charge more money for the same sized model. Excuse me, but what are you on about? Unless I'm mista…

    Apart from getting 16 sq. km of solar arrays and radiators into orbit - and without jumping to conclusions about whether this is a borderline scam - I can imagine 2 obvious showsto…

    ... what tf? On top of studying engineering at uni, his "side-gig" is being creative, empathetic, and fantastic at communication - and your prime recommendation is to "hire" him to…

    That's quite the statement. What makes you so certain that we won't have AGI within 30-60 years?

    Because "AI" is a well-established academic field, and the definition by your quoted comment is in line with this. It's a very broad umbrella term, machine (and deep) learning are …

    Glad you found it useful. A small caveat, though: The correlation is linear with the logarithm of compute. So here's hoping Moore's law & friends live on a tad longer! And a somewh…

    It might not come as much of a shocker, but a couple of researchers last year claimed a strong correlation between raw compute and predictive power in various fields/domains, inclu…

    Small correction: Net income: 0.524 bb So 19.6% profit margin. Still nice.

    Taking GP's point to less of an extreme: Are all humans always right in everything that they state?

    Yeah, nah, I beg to differ: Just because the broader population might not (yet!) have an intuitive understanding of the field, and its shortcomings, I don't think we should rename …

    I don't think anybody serious in the machine learning community has any delusion as to when a model says "A" with "99% confidence", that actually truly means that the model is fund…

    Sure, or you know... Rather than ranting on twitter, one could look up "Large Language Model" (LLM), "Deep Learning", "Machine Learning" as well as "Artificial Intelligence" on Wik…

    Except you don't have astronauts going to the vast majority of the 1000s of satellites orbiting the planet. So apart from the 1-2 active space stations, where people go without hav…

    I love bashing Intel as much as the other person, but looking at the number of tokens LLaMA[1] was trained on (1,400B tokens), the number of parameters of GPT-3[2] vs. the number o…

    I have created a small, open-source framework for generating 1000s of variations of images based on sampling prompts. The purpose of the project is 3-fold: 1. To efficiently test o…

    If anybody is interested, maybe this should be considered along with the core inflation rates - which is high in the US (peaked at 7% within the last 12 months and currently at 5.5…

    In case I'm not the only one a tad confused about this (awkward) sentence: > JWST looked at TRAPPIST-1 in mid-infrared wavelengths of light — 20 times redder than the human eye can…

    I know this doesn't add much, but a small addition: The whole concept of the lost Dwemer civilization is an entire layer of depth to the fantastic world. A world which IMO is unpar…

    I remember having one of those free websites together with a mate from school (webbyen.dk, was the thing in Denmark). We'd write our own review of games, half-conscious that nobody…

    Yeah, you're right. That was a typo and now I can't correct it. I'm not sure what "high room temperature" would even entail :)

    I had no idea, thanks for sharing. Again, I'm very much a layman to this subject, but how does miniaturization necessarily affect that particular aspect ratio? Since it's literally…

    In extension to this news and the press conference, one thing I am super excited about, is the private SPARC project and the MIT-spinoff Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS). If you d…
