Anyone who could live on this planet without music is a psycopath.
llms can be better than most humans at applescript
just need a fuck ton in context
I saw this pop up based on this Reddit thread and on Twitter as well:

This seems serious? Is this really serious?
Why would they need to save these tokens in the first place?
the only difference is, one can recover from manic psychosis
~1/3 of bipolar people fall into the category you are describing – rapid-cycling bipolar.
for the rest, the cycles are months long, whether manic, euthymic, or depressed, and often following seasonal patterns.
clinical bipolar disorder vs. the ups and downs of human life are quite different. it's difficult to understand unless you have seen a loved one suffer it, or have been afflicted with it yourself.
I've tried many of the different lives, and there's nothing better than being in close quarters for me.
The research led to a technology with a simple use case: input / output.
The "product" is a chatbot. input / output.
There is no innovation in interface or product design.
All the magic – all the "product innovation" is in it creating coherent text output.
(OpenAI's UI is not really that great).
All attempts at "product" (as in serving a specific use case tailored to a specific business or commercial workflow) that OpenAI have led to date – i.e. plugins – have been a huge flop.
I am uncertain who is behind assistants interface design to make RAG so easy. It's usability is underpinned by the larger context window of GPT-4T.
All of the magic is in the underlying technology. And I think Ilya's at the core of it. Yes, Attention Is All We Need is the Google paper that invented the transformer.
Ilya also worked at Google and was a key part of the ecosystem, and I imagine had indirect (and most likely very direct) contributions.
He is one of the most cited computer scientists of all time.
Without Ilya, I don't think we'd have the hype right now.
Someone would have come to the same conclusion, I'm sure.
As in – without him – this LLM craze, as we know it and as it has manifested – would not exist today?
My understanding is that he is at the center of all of it.
NY Mag said that Sam Altman is the Oppenheimer, I think it's Ilya.
or rather, significantly more?
this seems super, super simple.
I cannot think of a single slice shop (non-chain) in NY / NJ where you they produce pies like you describe. They are making the pizza from scratch.
They reheat the slices until they run out of a pie. Then they make a new pie and put it on the counter.
I think what you mean is that most most New York style pizza outside of greater New York area is not great. I don't know what I'd call it.
Standard fare, affordable pizza in the US is mediocre outside of the North East. But that's OK, we can't even BBQ.
