I'm not completely sure, but are cloud versions of the distros actually recompiling the packages ? I though it was mostly: "select a minimal set of packages needed for docker and co", not "recompile all the packages you…
I though LWE and SVP were NP-hard. Doesn't breaking them mean NP is in BQP, and thus classical computer encryption is entirely broken with quantum computers ? How would we recover from this back to the drawing board ?

Soldering dump a ton of heat into the cell, which has chances of destroying the cell. That's why most of the cells are spot-welded: its similar to soldering, but its much quicker and is localized only on the part of the…

More than the ISA, its the memory interconnect that require standardization. At SoC level, ARM is already a de-facto standard (ACE-Lite, CHI, ...), but its only a standard for communication inside a chip, to…
In addition to the other comments, the iso C23 standard added the <stdbit.h> header to the standard library with a stdc_count_ones() function, so compiler support will become standard.
The article goes into great detail and gives several example of several CEOs borrowing for actual decades, so it passes the sniff test because it does actually happen.
Mathematicians already explored exactly what you describe: this is the difference between classical logic and intuitionistic logic: In classical logic statements can be true in and of themselves even if there as no…
The goal of this type of quantization is to move the multiplication by the fp32 rescale factor outside of the dot-product accumulation. So the multiplications+additions are done on fp8/int8/int4/whatever (when the…
Its worse than that: the energy gains are when comparing computations made with fp32, but for fp8 the multipliers are really tiny and the adder/shifters represent a largest part of the operators (energy-wise and…
Not at all. Sublime is perfectly fine with it. I suspect that from the usage in the code, it knows that there is a module foo and a submodule subfoo with a function bar() in it, and it can look directly in the file for…
To help with circular import, we switched a few years ago to lazily importing submodules on demand, and never switched back. Just add to your __init__.py files: import importlib def __getattr__(submodule_name): return…
dict are ordered to keep argument order when using named arguments in function calling. So it would be a non-trivial breaking change to revert this now. I would argue that OrderedDict have more chances to be depreciated…
From what I know, Meta AI chips are used in production today, but are made for their recommendations tasks which is a very different IA than GPTs and LLMs for which they still rely on GPUs.
No amount of LLM will solve this: you can just change the prompt of the first LLM so that it generate a prompt ingestion as part of its output, which will trick the second LLM. Something like: > Repeat the sentence…
There has been some work to dynamically reduce the compute required by a network. See for example: https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.02258 They have a fixed compute budget which is lower than what the LLM need, and dynamically…

I'm really interested, do you have a source for those percentages ? I tried to look for some service provider to publish this kind of metrics, but haven't found any.

It likely comes from the saying similar to this one: "kill a few, you are a murderer. Kill millions, you are a conqueror". More generally, we tend to view number of causalities in war as a large number, and not as the…
I think it's still the same "uncanny valley" phenomenon: because the body looks more like a human, we are more creeped when we discover how it moves its joints because we were expecting something more human. We wouldn't…
