Can maybe think of one time in the last 10 years that I would have wanted this. Its only purpose is for training LLMs

Socialism is completely incompatible with free markets. Free markets typically stop being opinionated beyond the concept of enforcing contracts/consent, i.e. people are allowed to …

I have had production edge cases anticipated by AI before that I hadn't accounted for.

Anecdotal: I used to beg my boss to get some help. I wanted 5 engineers and would have been upset if anyone had been hired that wasn't an engineer until I at least got 1-2. That wa…

In 65 years Ozempic will have been in use for 65+ years to help people lose weight, but that won’t make it untrue that going for a walk helps you lose weight.

> They want you to rent their compute instead of running it on your own hardware I don't think this is the main thing. I think the real risk open weights AI poses to them is that i…

What's interesting is that the way in which they're childish is actually extremely human. In fact, one of the ways that you're often taught to draw more realistically is to stop th…

One benefit of an open source one is that you can, as a large corporation, run it "locally" within your own data center. Even fine tune it.

It's funny that they triggered the infamous "Code Red" moment in OpenAI when the 3-3.1 models came out. I switched to using them for a lot of single-shot LLM calls because they wer…

If you want an LLM to have knowledge about something, the knowledge has to either exist in its weights or be provided to it in its context. Because context is expensive and limited…

This is like a single prompt AI. The term labels are illegible against the white background. The connections don't make any sense. "Training vs Inference" connects to Large Languag…

MoE is literally exactly what they're describing. The classifier being described is baked into the model and is the thing that makes it MoE. Imagine I had [a model that was good at…

I didn't know people could just have GPT running on their own hardware. How does one...do that? Do you have a special relationship with OpenAI and they lock down your servers or so…

This is kind of insane reasoning. It's basically asking "what is their pay going to be justified by once their pay isn't justified?"

Guess if people who write articles like LLMs

Claude performs 50 microappreciations per second

1.) China is not communist, even remotely so. China is fascist in every sense of the word. 2.) Authoritarianism can move faster than anything. They can just say "wipe out that vill…

I don't use Gemini cli because they're so bad at agentic work/tool calling. I use their chatbot all the time, though.

I use both constantly for different things. You don't need to be a one-model Andy

I have built a few voice based integrations into my applications that use these live agents (gpt and gemini), but they are always too expensive to be viable. I have to end up hacki…

I have the same response every time I hear this: like 95% of application CRUD plumbing is much better served by an ORM. It gives your application typed versions of your data, lets …

European statecraft has led to a massive bureaucratic blob whose best and brightest just go to America.

To me in second grade, Red Alert was literally just building Tesla Coils.
