One I've started noticing is the "quotation marks around a phrase awkwardly trying to bundle a concept" thing. Like all LLM cliches it's something that has been used in writing for a long time, but I've seen it so much…

Same, but recently I discussed the LLM flood on Reddit with some friends IRL and they were surprised I had left Reddit, as they simply hadn't noticed significant bot activity. Mind you, these are very AI-aware people. I…
There is a danger in chronic abuse resulting in upregulation. Mixing the two at once is no problem for the liver, which is also why patient information leaflets for paracetamol do not contain a warning to avoid alcohol,…
This is correct.
These are good practices to keep in mind when setting up GenAI solutions, but I'm not convinced that this part of the job will allow "data scientist" as a profession to thrive. Here's my pessimistic take. Data…
What makes you think the desired effect is to have an LLM that speaks in an old-timey style? The training process is the whole point.
> Prompts with more than 272K input tokens are priced at 2x input and 1.5x output for the full session for standard, batch, and flex.
Then just post your opinions rather than the text the LLM dreamed around your opinions. Short posts and tweets tend to be well-liked on HN, there is no need to puff it up to a big blog post.
This is true beyond software. It used to be that the proof of the thinking process was in the resulting artifact. No longer can you estimate from the existence of a piece of text and the level of polish behind it that…
What exactly are you claiming here? That a handful of theorems about the limits of mathematics and provability somehow combine to show that the current LLM-based AI developments will inevitably live up to what is…

The notion that the brain uses less energy than an incandescent lightbulb and can store less data than YouTube does not mean we have had the compute and data needed to make AGI "for a very long time". The human brain is…
Right after that quote: "The key is ensuring that any future cuts at NASA are not indiscriminate. If and when Jared Isaacman is confirmed by the US Senate as the next NASA administrator, it will be up to him and his…
It is a tax on an assumed return on assets, determined as a set percentage of wealth. "Vermogensrendementsheffing" means a "tax on return on wealth", not on the wealth itself. In name it is not a wealth tax, but in…
You pay an annual % tax on the value of your investments less debt as of January 1st. This means you still pay taxes if your assets lose value, too. It's a wealth tax that pretends to be a capital gains tax.
Are there any specific podcasts you would recommend?
Paracetamol and alcohol is actually not a dangerous combination at all as far as the liver is concerned. That is why there is no warning against combining the two in the information leaflet that comes with it.…
When you evaluate an ML approach, you should use one part of the data to train your model and a completely separate part to evaluate it. Otherwise, your model can just memorize parts of the data (or overfit in some…
E.g. on Google if you search for "how to tie a tie", a little info box may pop up with step by step instructions. This content is taken from some website, but that website gets no page hits or ad revenue. Instead,…
Amsterdam is #9 in the report (scoring 0.1 lower than Toronto), but not mentioned in the article for some reason.
This isn't exactly what you are talking about, but this art/concept for self-powered student housing came to mind: https://www.humanpowerplant.be/human_power_plant/human-power...
Travelling by train is more sustainable.
Thanks for sharing. I would like to add the Artistoo framework (not mine), which is an easy to extend implementation of the Cellular Potts Model in JS that you can also fiddle around with in the browser. It supports…
