    This is exactly what we need to enable true embodied AGI - think “mirror neurons” but for robotics. General-purpose humanoid robots capable of interfacing with our physical world w…

    Anyone know if they're using TPUs for inference? It'll be real interesting if they're not bottlenecked by Nvidia chips.

    A former colleague of mine is at Meta thanks to this exact strategy. There are also apparently leaked question banks available to facilitate the process!

    The difference is, we're soon going to have autonomous agents that do all the PRs for us.

    It's astounding just how quiet EV's are; they can make you hyperaware of other noises (hence why this page exists).

    IMO, one of the most interesting problem spaces is in cooperative behaviors between autonomous agents.

    Remember, about a month ago Sam posted a comment along the lines of "AI will be capable of superhuman persuasion well before it is superhuman at general intelligence, which may lea…

    If we achieve AGI it has the potential to capture most (if not all) economic value. Larry Summers was a deliberate choice indeed.

    Yes, however they’ll be shielded from lawsuits from OpenAI at Microsoft.

    This is unfortunate, and likely stems from the recent accident that caused the loss of their CA license suspension, which may have jeopardized their upcoming fundraising. Perhaps K…

    What I find incredibly odd is the lack of a Microsoft board seat, considering their large ownership in OpenAI. Something does not add up.

    I don’t think this is necessarily what happened (the CFO would certainly be implicated and it appears they were spared).

    Are you noticing this with the API too? I’ve observed inconsistencies in response time via API (v4-T)

    Precisely. I do utilize coworking spaces quite a bit, however I tend to go in on days where I don't have many calls scheduled. Also, my home office setup (ultra wide external monit…

    McKinsey sells the "idea" that they're experts that know what they're doing, rather than actually doing a good job.

    The adaptation of "The Night Manager" is excellent IMO. It's a miniseries of sorts (only 6 episodes), however Hugh Laurie & Tom Hiddleston deliver top-notch performances. It's avai…

    That's per flight. Invest in a pair of noise-cancelling headphones and it will pay for itself. Personally, I can't imagine air travel without them.

    If it happens to be AMD, there are promising new treatments in testing. This was just posted today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37295409

    I’ve been a longtime Nvidia investor (since ~2014 or so) and have no plans on selling anytime soon. Their market dominance will be tough to unseat, and the only other company makin…

    How this compare to just running llama.cpp locally?
