ssabev··on OpenAI to buy AI startup from Jony Ive
Came here to agree.

Initially I thought it's a bloody stupid idea, however at this stage I reckon we need it or a lot of boomers are going to be ones hotted into singing away all their wealth away.

ssabev··on Local OpenAI compatible Grok 3 server with a client, CLI and proxy
love grok3? can't wait for official api?

now you can run an openai-compatible proxy for all of your "local model" needs.

currently using it as my custom provider in repoprompt

pkg includes: client, cli, and proxy

ssabev··on Why we no longer use LangChain for building our AI agents
Would recommend just picking up a gateway that you can deploy and act as an OpenAI compatible endpoint.

We built something like this for ourselves here -> https://www.npmjs.com/package/@kluai/gateway?activeTab=readm....

Documentation is a bit sparse but TL;DR - deploy it in a cloudflare worker and now you can access about 15 providers (the one that matter - OpenAI, Cohere, Azure, Bedrock, Gemini, etc) all with the same API without any issues.

ssabev··on Gemini Pro vs. GPT3.5
The ELO leaderboard you mean?
ssabev··on Gemini Pro vs. GPT3.5
Spoiler: it's fast, cheap, overly protective, and has Kafkaesque DX
ssabev··on GPT-4 Turbo and ft-3.5-turbo-1106 benchmarks
We benchmarked retrieval, GPT-4 turbo vs GPT-4, and fine-tuned several models. You can use the result of one here https://huberman.klu.ai/
ssabev··on OpenAI GPT-3.5-turbo-instruct released
Hey folks, any of you tried with this stream=True? It works in the playground, but it appears that you cannot actually stream completions from this model via the python openai package.

Wondering if it's a weird PEBKAC or someone else has had the same experience?

ssabev··on The UK wants the ability to stop companies from patching vulnerabilities
Absolutely mad... Saw this and thought - what the hell. I have to say moving away is starting to feel really tempting
ssabev··on Close to half of American adults favor TikTok ban, Reuters/Ipsos poll shows
Absolutely agree here. We should be intolerant of intolerance in democratic societies and reciprocate with the more questionable counter parties from countries with .. shall we say different moral norms.
ssabev··on Chinese Trust Companies on the Brink
But I was told China was winning. De-dollarisation to a completely "free-floating" RMB was happening. The official numbers foretold it! /s
ssabev··on Chinese Trust Companies on the Brink
Seems legit to me. 11/10 investment opportunity. /s
ssabev··on Do we really need a specialized vector database?
Any first hand experience? We are using pg_vector and it works really well
ssabev··on Navy in Middle-Earth
Now that you say it ... hmmmm
ssabev··on What happened in this GPT-3 conversation?
This is mad. Would be interesting to see if there is any way to trigger that behaviour. Reminds me of Sydney on Bing in the early days!
ssabev··on Navy in Middle-Earth
With this priming it definitely is an enjoyable show. I think I just had high expectations
ssabev··on Navy in Middle-Earth
Everyone else but the people who read the books it seems
ssabev··on Navy in Middle-Earth
Dude, if you think the ROP is bad... don't know if you've seen the Foundation from Apple TV, but holy hell. Kinda follows the plot, also completely demolishes it in other ways. Mad times
ssabev··on Navy in Middle-Earth
> removing any/all sympathy for the striking writers. Wait, what?
ssabev··on Navy in Middle-Earth
Here for this content. Also, why is that person not the one who did the Amazon series. The Tolkien fan in me is cringing heavily when observing the "plot" of the Rings of Power
ssabev··on Aeroflot deactivates brakes on nine aircraft, relies solely on reverse thrust
I know absolutely. However they can order spare parts. AFAIK, Russia is now cut off. Unless they can smuggle some from Kazakhstan, China or somewhere else it will be SOL for those airframes at one point.
ssabev··on Aeroflot deactivates brakes on nine aircraft, relies solely on reverse thrust
This is probably going to be just the tip of the iceberg. There was already articles around cannibalisation of planes so that you can service and repair an ever dwindling number of aircraft. If it keeps going on for another year or two it's not going to be good
ssabev··on Zoom terms now allow training AI on user content with no opt out
This hit too close to home :(
ssabev··on Andrew McCalip demonstrates synthesis of LK99
Well, she said, she's ethnically Ukrainian. It was great times for us during the USSR so not that's why I was finding it a bit odd.
ssabev··on Andrew McCalip demonstrates synthesis of LK99
Lots of bizarre pro-Soviet behaviour from her as well which feels somehow connected
ssabev··on Andrew McCalip demonstrates synthesis of LK99
What a time to be alive. Props for Varda jumping on it. If/when this works out would love to see them manufacture it in space.
ssabev··on 'Cancer-killing pill' is now being tested on humans
This is amazing news! Good to see that progress marches on
ssabev··on HMRC (UK Tax Authority) Persuing Uber for £386M (~$487M) Vat
Would this be annual revenue for HMRC though?
ssabev··on Semiconducting Transport in LK99 reproduction attempt
We are so so back. Cannot wait to see the new era. Feeling real bad for the doomers
ssabev··on FreeWilly 1 and 2, two new open-access LLMs
Ah, that's a good point. Well, I am all for freeing the willy.
ssabev··on To Save the Planet, Should We Be Moving Slower?
Yeah and human rights and happiness, etc, etc.
