There are a couple of references, most on some obscure detail. The ones that might be worth a try for an introduction are: - Walters, P., An Introduction to Ergodic Theory, Graduate Texts in Mathematics, 79.…
Not sure, I'm basing most of this on lecture notes I got at university.
I think looking into ergodic theory would help fill in the gap between completely random and completely rule based. In ergodic theory you have some kind of 'state' and a function way to 'advance' the state, if you…
I think the explanation of entropy's blind spot is a bit off. It's not actually a problem for entropy if something is generated by a rule, you can calculate entropy for things like the continuous fractions for instance,…
If compliance was the main issue we wouldn't have had to invent ways for computers to do something other than exactly what they were asked.
You'll recognise the good engineers as the ones that remove code.
Even that is overselling the effort. Last time I checked you could find IDs with a simple image search.
I just want them to tell me if they don't know. It's the one question that AIs seem unable to answer correctly.
If you feel the need to hide how you got the answer then you know something is wrong.
To minimise the KL you just calculate the surprisal. The integral can be approximated by sampling over your training data. It's a direct expression of the information loss between your real data and your fitted…
I wonder if using a hilbert curve (or perhaps the simpler z-curve) access order would help things. If ought to work well regardless of cache size. Actually I think I recall some GPUs storing textures that way, but I'm…
I was expecting more like a minimal usage that makes sense for a butchery or something, not get rid of the people using email.
What's the LLM equivalent to email and a basic webpage?
That's just a baseless assumption. To use AI well you should do the things that allow you to use stuff well. You shouldn't just use it any way you can because you assume that 'not using it at all' is not the best…
You've somehow confused using AI well with using it extensively. Sometimes using something well involves not using it at all.
I'm also pretty sure 14 points font is a bit outdated at this point, 16 should probably be a minimum with current screens. It's not as if screens aren't wide enough to fit bigger text.
Oh that's annoying, seems to me there wouldn't have been an issue if you just merged B into A after merging A into main, or the other way around but that already works fine as you pointed out. I mean if you've got a…
Huh interesting, my mental model is unable to see any difference between them. I mean a branch is just jamming a flag into a commit with a polite note to move the flag along if you're working on it. You make a long…
I think being connected is easy enough, being non-cyclic is trickier I suppose. If you do it badly the shape of the maze is going to depend on the order it's generated in. I imagine some people may have looked into it.
I'd probably go with something like the wave function collapse algorithm. It should be possible to make it generate trees with somewhat uniform probability.
Since it's AI and Microsoft I can believe that someone who doesn't know what they're doing would be given a mandate to promote AI under any means necessary at the cost of some other team's reputation. But it's an insane…
The fact that they chose to publish the ad _under someone else's name_ is so tone deaf that I just can't understand what they were thinking.
Oh that's neat, though I might split this into two functions in most cases, no need to entangle opening the file and counting the words in a filelike object. That's two neat tricks that I'm definitely adding to my bag…
I dislike loading files into memory entirely, in fact I consider avoiding that one of the few interesting problems here (the other problem being the issue of counting words in a stream of bytes, without converting the…
For reasons I never quite understood python has a collections.Counter for the purpose of counting things. It's a bit cleaner.
