Many of his arguments make “logical” sense, but one way to evaluate them is: would they have applied equally well 5 years ago? and would that have predicted LLMs will never write (average) poetry, or solve math, or…
Well clearly not, since at least 100 pages of content here are specifically about differentiable programming and not prerequisites :) More seriously, it's about doing the impossible. Formally, some functions are…
It’s an introduction to a relatively niche new subfield. If I (an expert in the field but not the subfield) want to learn about differentiable programming, my only option before this monograph was to read through tens…
My hypothesis is that Japanese people just appreciate high-quality products more. In the sense that even poor people, which of course exist in Japan, are willing to save up money and occasionally splurge on upscale…
Because people in high executive positions usually have no intrinsic aversion to lying, and in this case, from a cold rationality perspective, lying is obviously more effective than admitting guilt. (Expanding: people…
