You still can very much die in quicksand but the problem is that you get like your foot stuck in a way that you just can't escape and then you just die out there like that. But the idea that you sink down and drowned is some kind of weird combination of a swamp and not really quicksand but is much more filmable.
Since this is an anecdote, it is unfalsifiable, and can't support these softened claims, either. The endless possibilities of incorrect contexts inferred from simply incomplete or adjacent contexts would prevent the ability to manage information quantity versus quality. I want to continue to provide my own unfalsifiable anecdote though, that all of this is a way to just name a new rug to sweep the problems under, and feels to me the kind of problem that if we knew how to solve we wouldn't use these models at all.
The fact that adding in information to support a query at inference time has no guarantee to be limited by that information. Besides my 15 years of natural language processing experience, my first hand experience is non deterministic output using that technique because the math simply requires it to be. I know we only trade in anecdotes because the studies, perhaps considered more rigorous collections of anecdotes, like the BBC studies on summaries show that they cannot summarize only synthesize, so... I guess I mean to say that while I can't rule it out that some day it may be possible, or even that it works for some people in some contexts most of the time, there is no study to point to that shows anything resembling a "solution." Perhaps you meant something like "there is a prevailing technique" not that it is a solved problem.
Oh, no I didn't mean to say regex or not, I meant regex over XML vs regex over a string. The first has the illusions everyone is bringing up that XML is not regular, but having clarity that it is ultimately a string is the correct set of assumptions.
I wish I could upvote this a bunch. It will only happen if people being to reflect on their gains at the hands of a specific vendor makes them beholden to that vendor. I know it is an idealism but I often think of statements like "source code or didn't happen" or wonder why people entrust such important things to one company an executive order away from being illegal.
That reminds me of a complaint that I had with a visualization library that kept pushing the open source project to be tied into their hosting racket. I brought up how lots of security organizations at the time wouldn't understand how much of a massive problem it was for the end user to decide to make the data immediately available to the entire Internet. It feels wrong that such implications could be missed from a set of environment variables just being missing. Usually you want things to fail safely ...
That's the secret, cap... you can't. And it's due to in band signalling, something I've mentioned on numerous occasions. People should entertain the idea that we're going to have to reeducated people about what is and isn't possible because the AI world has been playing make believe so much they can't see the fundamental problems to which there is no solution.
I think this is a great perspective in my professional experience it was very common to be using multiple tools. ESRI for some things, GDAL for others, and then some hacks here and there like most complex analytical systems. Some of it vendor shenanigans but some of it is specific features.
Weird people talking about small time creators wanting DRM I've never seen that... Usually they'd be hounding for any attention? I don't know why multiple accounts are seemingly independently bringing this up, but maybe it is trying to muddy the waters? This concept?
People that don't code think that something can do code 98% correct is surely better, without seeing the hard enforcement of a 2% error without manual intervention. I think all of the jokes about stupid computers and weird behavior of languages when you use them out of spec (famously labeled wat) gave people the wrong impressions about why those problems exist or how they can or cannot be fixed. You'd think they'd be able to transfer that cynicism quicker to models since they are also dumb computer things but apparently they say "hello" and that is tricking them out of that?
This. Sorry you're getting down votes at this moment for speaking the truth, but there really is no excuse for anti society anti intellectual illiberalism from the world's literal biggest losers.
An ideal measurement would be to calculate your utility's water usage to kWh then to this, perhaps a token per gram measurement. Of course it would be small, but it should be calculable and then directly comparable to these models if we try to go by something like token per gram of water. I suspect due to DC power distribution they may be more efficient in the data center. You could get more specific about the water too, recycled vs evaporated etc etc
We can't prove why people are being replaced, and the people who claimed to have replaced people with AI don't have a lot of good outcomes. Now there is some success but... it is bespoke to that environment often, so, your reasons would be sound if the premise was. We need more information.
Should probably note they allude to the public decency act, there is no such thing for now and hopefully for a while. I think this was meant metaphorically.
It seems politically inconceivable to discuss advertisement network security, ethics, consolidation, negligence, etc etc. I cannot more strongly recommend running an ad blocker.
This is the correct prospective. Often driver issues transcend technical and political boundaries. My old team dropped a vendor who changed the features of a driver and spent several years trying to find another as well as making that vendor reapply and make a new case, which, didn't work out for them.
