Advaita, which my orthodox Brahmin family believes and practices, proclaims the supremacy and totality of the self.

Buddhism which was dominant among the elites and aristocrats by 8th century was largely displaced out of India via scholarly debates.

This idea that east doesn’t believe in self is hokum

Sam Altman?

Definitely. I didn’t mean Americans are toxic. Workplace makes them different people though

Culture and nationality are different things. Competitiveness and toxicity go hand in hand

Entire SV VC sphere wants people in the office grinding

Europeans or literally anyone else are nicer workplace people.

American Corp culture is toxic af. Money thirst, shameless self promotion, competition etc really make you anxious all the time.

Why not. It’s not like they have deadlines

Exceptions are basically this? Some unknown unknown happened and you can’t do what you wanted to do

In my college Infosys was always seen as the option only slightly better than unemployment. Actually this was not even the popular view by the time I left.

Very well articulated.

Why wouldn’t capitalists drool over obedient, perpetual, cheap labour

You think Van Gogh and Picasso are nonsense?

Or even Mondrian

He’s talking about the API. Not the web client

Evernote context seemed great when I used it briefly with my premium subscription.

Bubbles up relevant notes automatically without having to link them like in Obsidian or something.

I think apart from that or an Anki like system there’s no way to solve this.

On the other hand maybe note taking is more about thinking and catalysing an idea and less about using in later

OpenAI dev confirms that API models have not changed:

Well they had every opportunity to inspect its output. Where in the loop and what gets inspected is not an easy problem to solve.

You have no basis to make that claim.

My point was a lot more subtle: if someone asks things like “double check it”, “are you sure” you can provide a template “I’m just a LM” response.

I’m not expecting the model to know what it doesn’t know. I’m not sure some future GPT variant can either

In the loop there indeed was a allegedly trained human in this instance

They should RLHF this behaviour out.

Asking people to be aware of limitations is in similar vein as asking them to read ToC

Hotel California

And to not reply in Klingon

Realistically you can assume there’ll be one soon and develop with these models and switch over

You provide two samples side by side and see what humans prefer.

You should try asking what you don’t know in a non judgemental manner

The measure is win rate versus DV3. Their model wins more often than ChatGPT

Beating a weaker player more often is not evidence of being able to beat a stronger player on average though

You don’t have 100B params without making a few enemies

How did this post go from new → top of HN → buried in 3rd page in 1 hour?!

None of what you say is a gotcha. An ignorant programmer stands only to benefit from Go

If you’re in denial about that, it’s a you problem

Good point. Edited

Cloud is doing pretty well. YouTube started making serious money. Pixel is a long term product line. Avoid metaberg-esque pivots towards crypto or VR

Very few businesses in the last 20 years that can compete with Google ad tech in scale and margins.
