I wonder if you can have it reason in caveman
make3··on OpenAI says its new model GPT-2 is too dangerous to release (2019)
1.5B and insanely under-trained. Size didn't mean much before the scaling laws papers came out.

we essentially have AGI right now brother
make3··on Molotov cocktail is hurled at home of Sam Altman
there's no due process in the US, the state is completly corrupt and captured
make3··on Molotov cocktail is hurled at home of Sam Altman
it's a bit scary how a lot of people are completely fine with an insanely wrong status quo of a fully corrupt and anti democratic government and of ppl like Altman allying with them.

not in the UK (or the US) since king Henry VIII made himself Pope of his new Anglican Church in the 1500s

the thing could barely make full grammatical sentences, it's funny to see that even then they were overclaiming the fuck out of their myself
make3··on How many products does Microsoft have named 'Copilot'?
either that or AAA games mostly becoming streamed from Clouds like Nvidia now
make3··on How many products does Microsoft have named 'Copilot'?
gaming too I guess still
make3··on Iran strikes leave Amazon availability zones "hard down" in Bahrain and Dubai
Trying to build things in a way that they have to be resistant to missile and drone stand is not a very reasonable scaling constraint. That's why we need non stupid leaders who don't start pointless wars
make3··on Iran strikes leave Amazon availability zones "hard down" in Bahrain and Dubai
hitting the electrical grid is a war crime, not so much an AWS server farm. optics / progressive escalation does matter
make3··on Claude Code's source code has been leaked via a map file in their NPM registry
it's like a faster than light spaceship company using horses. There's been infinite solutions to do this better even CPU only for years lol.
make3··on Bird brains (2023)
they also need to understand human behavior a little bit I guess, & that's pretty complicated (so not just social, social of humans specifically)
make3··on Bird brains (2023)
it's funny because domesticated cats have much more developed frontal cortexes than their ancestors & it would be one of the things that feral cats lose to genetic drift (meaning, no conservation pressure in the wild). whatever boring stuff we have them do is apparently extremely mentally taxing compared to the wild.
make3··on ChatGPT won't let you type until Cloudflare reads your React state
Absolutely not, the former relies on controversial ideas to qualify as legal.

Stealing the content from the whole planet & actively reducing the incentive to visit the sites without financial restitution is pretty bad.

make3··on Autoresearch on an old research idea
but doesn't it break the assumption that it should ideally be able to reproduce your original results
make3··on Ryugu asteroid samples contain all DNA and RNA building blocks
why me specifically or only though. your comment comes off as peachy and annoying.
make3··on Bored of eating your own dogfood? Try smelling your own farts
just "eat the food you cooked" would be fine. drink your own champagne sounds like such corporate group think bullshit I'd be tempted to change workplace on the spot
make3··on Iran war energy crisis is a renewable energy wake-up call
tanks must represent like 0.001% of fuel consumption lol Road uses like cars, trucks and buses is 47% of all oil, and clearly an enormous fraction of that can be converted to use electricity instead
make3··on Ryugu asteroid samples contain all DNA and RNA building blocks
It's funny talking about non software stuff on HN. I'm sure there's hundreds of papers on simulations and expert analysis of this.
make3··on Ryugu asteroid samples contain all DNA and RNA building blocks
read up on the RNA world theory, it's so cool
make3··on John Carmack about open source and anti-AI activists
why is someone making money out of it a bad thing, if they're not preventing other people from using the code?
make3··on Mouser: An open source alternative to Logi-Plus mouse software
I don't know why it's still a respected brand when everything they do is mid at best
make3··on $96 3D-printed rocket that recalculates its mid-air trajectory using a $5 sensor
I always wonder why rockets are millions of dollars each, that seems insane to me.
make3··on Elon Musk pushes out more xAI founders as AI coding effort falters
spending your productive output making one of the most powerful terrible people alive more powerful just sounds depressing to me. do you really want your research to be how to make the personality of Elon's anti woke mind virus LLM better at erotic talk.

I guess it comes down to your daily efforts serving only to make the world a worst place, vs having a neutral job

make3··on I resigned from OpenAI
they all made 600k-800k USD and up and are highly employable, you definitely can blame them
make3··on I resigned from OpenAI
It was up last week, now no one really needs to read the post
make3··on Tech employment now significantly worse than the 2008 or 2020 recessions
You could try to get a degree on the side (not saying necessarily in comp sci) just to make your life more resilient to bad economic situations, and maybe more interesting
make3··on OpenAI agrees with Dept. of War to deploy models in their classified network
insane cope
make3··on The path to ubiquitous AI (17k tokens/sec)
It's weird to me to train such huge models to then destroy them by using them a 3 bits quantization per presumably 16bits (bfloat16) weights. Why not just train smaller models then.
