Reading this gives me some slight existential dread, since most of my time here I just read other people’s comments. In any case, I think a big barrier to starting things can often…

As a user, I've been putting in some long mathematical research papers and asking detailed questions about them in order to understand certain parts better. I feel some benefit fro…

Comparing to the numbers here https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-3-family the ones of Llama 400B seem slightly lower, but of course it's just a checkpoint that they benchmarked …

Ik begrijp het prima hoor ;)

I don't mean this in a bad way, but when I read a comment like yours which includes phrases like "seamlessly enhances my workflow" and "efficiently aids in task completion", I can'…

People refer to it as Synthstrom Deluge all the time. The product is called Deluge and the company is Synthstrom. It would be strange if they called their product the Synthstrom Sy…

I don't see why this changes anything. There are some, sort-of intelligent networks of cells in the gut that help in digestion and other processes. Doesn't change the fact that con…

One pill a day perhaps not, but you can definitely sustain yourself on meal replacement products like the ones from Soylent or Huel. I get about 1/3rd my calories from those and it…

I read that book as well when I was 20, and while it was helpful I was also surprised watching a YouTube talk by her many years later, and not finding her particularly charismatic!…

Yes, that was a bad mistake on my part. Thanks for pointing it out!..

Half your examples are wrong, but maybe it is your point. Although it wasn't clear to me the first time I read your comment. - The cardinality of the odd and even integers is the s…

The author says, "I can’t even say whether I’m voluntarily or involuntarily single," and I think this is telling. When you're dealing with anxiety and overthinking, it's easy to lo…

I just put this into ChatGPT4, and it gave C as the answer.

No. In Mathematica important operations like mapping functions over sets (arrays/tensors) at various depths have simple operators such as (/@, @, @@, @@@). You can do functional co…

As someone who does research with computer algebra systems (mainly Wolfram Mathematica) many hours a day, I think that SymPy is still far behind Mathematica. The fundamental design…

From my personal experience I have seen this disparity in the extreme, since I studied physics where the gender ratio was very unbalanced. I knew many guys who had some trouble soc…

There are ways that LLM's can self-improve, such as in this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.11610 I would speculate that there are more ways to train on logical consistency of th…

He is saying that the "base code" / DNA which makes up the brain might be only 40MB (for example). Not that what eventually emerges from that (such as our memories and learned abil…

I like the idea, but putting in some songs by Aphex Twin I didn't find the matches to be similar at all.

The text-davinci-003 model is not GPT3.5, and this does not really replicate ChatGPT since that one is fine tuned based on human feedback. Edit: I stand corrected, sorry for Dunnin…

Even that might not be entirely safe, as Schrödinger's behaviour has only become widely known in recent years for example. (Although he died around 60 years ago, so not quite 100.)…

I have not used Sunvox but I make music as a hobby using trackers like Renoise, and also various DAWs. I would still say that there is an advantage to having a specially designed h…

Not the person you were replying to, but that takes me back! Back in those days I was in early high school and Jumper was one of the games I looked up to when I was learning Game M…
