This is crazy to me as well: half a terabyte (!) of RAM?! How is that even possible lol (I know this is possible, but seems totally overkill, even though I know LLMs eat RAM for breakfast)
Ah, yeah, I guess I meant processes, indeed
I think this is the entire point, you're supposed to subconsciously believe that you're talking to a human, not a matrix multiplication algorithm
Google trying to break up human relationships: "Are you ready to just walk away? Huh? Are you ready to do it? I have no idea who the guy is, but you better be walking away right now. Do you want to send one final text?…
So, is it better (faster, stronger, etc) than iOS 18? Everyone says iOS 26 was not good at all and iOS 27 is much better, but it seems like it's fairly simple to make something that's better than iOS 26. A more…
Well, it's fast. Perhaps "they" want me and everyone else unemployed, but it's not immediate and not particularly certain. However, I can use uv here and now to greatly simplify my workflows, so I use it.
How is, say, `age = 5; print(f"Age: {age} years old")` not easy for beginners? IMO it's as easy as it gets: you want the value of `age` printed {HERE}, so you just put it where you want it, surrounded by curly brackets.
I'm a HUGE fan of f-strings and I think they should be added to more or less every language in existence. (This is just to show how much I like f-strings, not to be taken literally) `printf`-style format strings seem…
Yes, I'm diving a bit too deeply because I don't really know what "thinking" is and therefore I don't understand how we can so confidently say that LLMs don't think, even though they definitely LOOK like they're…
Petition to force everyone saying "you need to read about XYZ" to provide at least 2 sources where one can actually read about XYZ. - If you can't provide any sources, it's safe to assume you don't actually know what…
Yeah, the article reads like they suddenly realized that trees are alive and rushed to make their discovery a law. Look how ridiculous this sounds: > Desrochers' film, called Des arbes et des arts convinced citizens…
Seems like plotnine renders plots using matplotlib and has matplotlib as a dependency: https://github.com/has2k1/plotnine/blob/f6f5cb424f38329c5267...
Well, hopefully this is indeed the case!
Yeah, "they" probably simply have our FaceID data that we're willingly collecting ourselves, supposedly for our own security.
Wait, this isn't real, is it? Is there actually an intermediate model that translates DeepSeek's thinking from its "alien language" into human languages? That's not actually the case, right? I thought "thinking" is…
> ...no stable identity to it ... what's doing the thinking? The model (its parameters, its architecture and the inference algorithm) is doing the thinking. That's what we call "ChatGPT" or "Claude": it's the same model…
Yeah, pretty sure the vast majority of people in general doesn't understand what "consciousness" or "subjective experience" even mean or what the brain does. Or it's just me and I'm projecting my thoughts onto others. I…
I'm pretty sure it doesn't misunderstand the original. The original says that the aliens don't understand how meat (humans) can be conscious, have language and be basically like the aliens (thinking conscious beings).…
Initially I thought this was a joke (Julia doesn't seem to be popular enough to be one of the cornerstones of Jupyter, compared to Python and R), but indeed, Jupyter's documentation says it's true: > The name Jupyter…
Not this exactly, but IMO they're saying that since the text is presumably AI-generated, it kind of can't be beautiful? Or shouldn't feel beautiful? Or it's beautiful, but... it's AI-generated and thus "bad", not the…
Right, I'm just hyperbolizing to capture the overall vibe of "you may think it's beautiful, but it's AI, so it's actually not good" of three comments here. Didn't mean to put words in your mouth, of course.
Right, isn't double descent one of the reasons why modern Extremely Large Language Models work at all? I think I heard somewhere that basically all today's "smart" (reasoning, solving math problems, etc) LLMs are…
I'm not particularly well-versed in philosophy, but what's the dualism here? Of course what a cat _is_ to me is not what a cat _is_ to you, because we necessarily have different memories of interactions with cat-like…
