I think we have to be careful when assuming that model capabilities will continue to grow at the same rate they have grown in recent years. It is very well-documented their growth in recent years has been accompanied by…
I wonder whether for a lot of the search & literature review-type use-cases where people are trying to use GPT-5 and similar we'd honestly be much better off with a really powerful semantic search engine? Any time you…
Good question, I don't personally know. The linked article would suggest there are plenty of people working on human feedback for chatbots, but that still doesn't give us any hard numbers or any sense of how the number…
I've shared this once on HN before, but it's very relevant to this question and just a really great article so I'll reshare it here: https://www.theverge.com/features/23764584/ai-artificial-int... it explores the world…
I love nanobind, use it all the time and highly recommend it. It makes it very easy to pass numpy, PyTorch, cupy or tensorflow arrays to your C++ extension, to specify what array shape and flags are expected, and to…
I added a reply to the parent of your comment with a link to an article I found fascinating about the strange world of labeling and RLHF -- this really interesting article from The Verge 2 years ago:…
There's a really fascinating article about this from a couple years ago that interviewed numerous people working on data labeling / RLHF, including a few who had likely worked on ChatGPT (they don't know for sure…
This April 3rd Pew research study is some fairly interesting reading: https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2025/04/03/how-the-us-p... They find that the general public is overall much more skeptical that AI will benefit…
Depends on your data and what assumptions you can make. I work with sequence data a lot, and for that type of data the MMSeqs library (https://github.com/soedinglab/MMseqs2) is both very powerful and very popular. For…
Funny...I was just coming here to talk about Qt :) To be fair, as you say, Qt definitely has shortcomings and some things I don't like. If you're trying to minimize your disk space footprint, it's hard to get anything…
