    Did anyone see on the blog post[0] that it was able to code up an entire GPU compiler from scratch? It looks like it even outperformed triton on some GPU kernels. That just seems i…

    Your blog always has such informative visualizations that make these concepts easy to digest! Which tools do you use to create them?

    So is this a new technique of doing computations within existing DRAM to overcome the memory wall issue of modern computing?

    I just finished this book. I thought it was a great read, capturing most of the problems (with product, sales, marketing, competition) Nvidia faced in its life and how exactly the …

    Is this open-source?

    She definitely knows, she’s just trying to avoid any chance of future litigation by feigning ignorance. Makes sense since OpenAI’s been getting a lot of bad press for using copyrig…

    Does anyone know if this is using the Mamba architecture[1] instead of transformers? It looks like it uses a state space model (SSM) layer. [1]: https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.00752

    As someone who wants to learn and explore more areas of computer science and programming, this outline and centralized list of resources is incredibly helpful! Thanks so much.

    I agree, I don't think the purpose of sci-fi is to predict the future. The future is just impossible to predict due to the myriad factors, variables, unknown unknowns, and second-o…

    Thanks for replying, that's a perspective I didn't consider. The capability to "talk to your data" just seems so enticing as a solution that I was tunnel-visioned into that UX. If …

    1. First of all, thanks for outlining how you trained the model here in the repo: https://github.com/NumbersStationAI/DuckDB-NSQL?tab=readme-o... ! I did not know about `sqlglot`, …

    I've actually done exactly what @qsort suggested and outputted the intermediate SQL query and raw data generated by that query when generating the response back to the user. That d…

    I see so many business leaders touting the promise of LLMs allowing business to "talk" to their data. The promise does sound enticing, but it's actually kind of hard to get working…

    I'm curious to see if people have tried this out with their datasets and seen success? I've been using similar techniques at work to build a bot that allows employees internally to…

    I can think of a few reasons for this besides the reason that life has genuinely become worse: 1. Profit-seeking news orgs: it's no secret that negative and controversial news sell…

    I thought for sure the only two outcomes were that Altman raises money for a new startup or he comes back to OpenAI with a new governance structure (which is still a wild and crazy…

    It’s amazing how much attaching a name to some phenomenon or problem and discussing it helps in understanding it and taking the first steps to address it. Knowing that bedtime proc…

    How did you even get started with this? There are many systems I'd love to learn to implement from scratch like databases, network stacks, and caches, but the task seems so vast an…

    I'm inclined to believe that they consolidated their code across a lot of their microservices and simplified their architecture since that was stressed a lot from the moment Musk a…

    92% with 4 perfect cuts (messed up badly on the easy 12-sided shape). Don't know why, but it was a strangely fun exercise. "Brilliant" ad too (pun intended :D)
