To be clear, I'm talking about high word error rate with parakeet vs whisper, not post processing and cleaning up my speech. Re: being faithful to what was said, one small example, Whisper will often put ellipses when I…
Parakeet is certainly faster on my machine (m3 max), but I can't stand using it over Whisper for dictating my prompts. It makes a lot more mistakes, possibly because (like you mentioned) large portions of the speech…
I get your point completely. I was (naively, I suppose) pretty surprised when I realized how low most people's threshold is to add a logo and claim a client/brand. I've seen VCs very much encourage this (and shadier)…
I've seen a lot of companies list logos if just a single engineer or team is using the product.
Physical machines can be confusing too :) When I was in Italy last summer, I couldn't figure out how to pay with my card at the machine in a small town, where you'd park to walk into an ancient city on a hill*. I asked…
I believe they just mean setting the model back to 4.5
And people have economic issues in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America and South America. People of all ethnicities all over the world steal. Plenty of immigrants work extremely hard and don't steal. I truly can't…
People steal due to economic issues, not their ethnicity.
I could've made my comment more clear. Definitely missing a statement along the lines of "and then after creating, you click 'set up billing' and link the accounts in 15 seconds" I did edit my message to mention I had…
I don't understand the multiple posts / comments I've seen about this. I google `gemini API key` and the first result* is this docs page: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/api-key That docs page has a link in the…
During peak hours (4-9pm daily) in San Diego you can be paying nearly $1/kWh (generation + transmission cost) to SDGE, so at least in certain areas, the running cost is very much relevant even for consumers.
Agreed. They accomplished a lot with distillation and optimization - but there's little reason to believe you don't also need foundational models to keep advancing. Otherwise won't they run into issues training on more…
You're arguing with me about points I haven't made.
I haven't made any claims about the recent sightings. Some have clearly been planes and people are just looking up more. My original point was and is that there are many laws restricting what the military is able to do…
1) there was a very public delay to shoot down anything even remotely above people. They just aren’t going to shoot something down over a city From the WSJ article I mentioned: “ Federal law prohibits the military from…
The military isn’t allowed to shoot down drones in the US. There was a WSJ story last month about drones flying over Langley for 2 weeks. All the general could do is stand on the roof and watch
Fair :) I was overlooking that this latest computer could be an older intel machine that didn't receive the latest OS, thus won't still still have years of security only updates.
Why can't your dad keep using his existing computer? Sure, if you make your living on the computer the new laptops are great. But if he's just checking email, photos, etc - I don't know why his computer needs to become…
Apple had good reasons for both transitions. In the scheme of 'forced upgrades' these are about as good as you're going to get. Also, if the OPs dad is using the computer for so little that it would last another 30…
the o1 model definitely has a somewhat big variance in how long the task takes depending on what you ask it to do
For anyone curious to hear more about how this happens, and a discussion with someone who was a former police officer (maybe even detective?) yet still fell victim, The Daily did an episode on this in April as well In…
The linked release mentions trusted users and links to the usage tier limits. Looking at the pricing, o1-preview only appears for tier 5 - requiring 1k+ spend and initial spend 30+ days ago edit: sorry - this is for API…
I suppose my phrasing was a bit harsh at the end. To be clear, I mean that it doesn't mean they know what they are doing on every investment. Investing misses happen! People are wrong!
That's a very dismissive and unrealistic statement. There are plenty of investors investing in things such as AI and crypto out of FOMO who either see something that isn't there or are just pretending to see something…
The best thing about an iPod was most certainly not the wired headphones, it was how much music you could store compared to most preceding devices.
