traces or it didn't happen!

Mmh ok. How much theoretical speed or 'intelligence' gain is realized by allowing reasoning to occur in some inscrutable intermediate representation? Has this been actually tested, how much is it slowing them down, and compared to whom exactly?

Have you noticed the small detail about the application of the sanctions bill that has been signed? Please tell us when you see something out of this bill, and the effect it has on whom.

Sorry but this language is so painful to read:

"What has actually been verified is a separate question from what builds, and PLATFORMS.md is the ledger that answers it:"

...that there is no way I'm going to try unodos.

Theory number one after catching up with some Israeli friends: he is clutching at straws trying to do preemptive damage control about the evidence that is going to come out about him...

Namely that on top of the documented fact that he turned a blind eye to the funding channels that were strengthening Hamas, because he likes his enemies to be radical non-negotiators, he also was informed about October 7th but decided it would be expedient to let the horror happen as he thought he could use it to strengthen his power.

Btw. I could not bring myself to watch Fauda season 5.

Well for starters the use of the term "Recursive" is very dubious.

This is as far as the eye can see all very iterative, there is no tail-call or anything fancy, it is loops. Also "Recursive" I feel kind of tries to imply the LLM's weights are being pushed around in some feedback, because to recurse you have to invoke the thing you're recursing into at its very start right? That would be reinforcement probably, and there is none of that in any such RSI so far, at least not public. Please someone contradict me with examples.

So please: "ISI" for iterative self improvement is fine. Also "ISI" does not fit the (outdated!) Vernon Vinge "singularity" trope, and that is a good thing!

I only ever published anything on the google play store under another google account than the one that's got my gmail and photos.

The joke about Pascal's wager, and I love to point it out to some associates, is that it embarks a devious hidden assumption: that the wager's idea of God is an entity that would see faith in its existence as a positive, and even worst case as not an insult to its powers of creation...

The "anti-Pascal" wager can thus be formulated as: the one who has had no faith in any eternal force will be congratulated on having kept their head straight and their focus on reality as it was painstakingly designed, and the faithful will be submitted to the full wrath of what such an entity as the creator of our mess could muster for their arrogant presumptions about this or that bug being made in this or that designer's image...

meh. so many words to say engineering was never about the toil.

This is hilarious. thank you? do you have any URLs and such? Totally priceless involuntary comedy from these `experts`!

Interesting! Could you point us towards where the "Very good arguments have been made that the Enlightenment (or Age of Reason) did originate from native North American ideas and ideals" can be found?

Wow and care workers expected to be submitted to this vampiric scheme are expected to provide hood care? How naive can the japanese be?

The callous extreme rudeness of purging hard-working people out just because their work doesn't pay a higher wage than the average is senseless anti-human pretentious bullshit.

Maybe that's how the AI apocalypse happens: AI generated memes and AI enhanced preferences for `clean` robot workers and purified isolation until the last human is informed she has to leave because some law requires it.

I have a bit of a hard time liking this sentence in an otherwise lovely article: "The velocity is the same as the position but imaginary instead of real."

Do you have any substantial sound metrics and study? I can think of many ways for a Rust program to not remove all fears that it will not do what I intended, doubly so for a vibe-coded Rust program.

"The Mafia" is... many different things. From self-defense post-war southern-italian village organisations to pure-evil predatory psycho-clans, to anything in between.

Am I the only one who is more worried about LLMs real demonstrable effects on the way humans use, namely use less, of their own intelligence?

Is this not the clear and present danger, instead of elusive promises of robot apocalypses? Is the AI embodied for example in TikTok, Instagram, etc, not a more directly hurtful?

Maybe that's because it is, maybe most people the current Texas leadership want to get votes from are not the ones that newly first register in Texas?

That playbook is 2012 all over again. Eerie.

I wonder if we can infer any chronological forecast from relative USA::РФ time frames?

"je ne sais quoi" is the more frequent phrase, means "I don't know what", the "je ne sais pas" just means "I don't know".

...and you're right, it's not the idiosyncrasies, it's the fluffy meandering meaningless purposeless vapidity.

what exactly did you mean when xou wrote this paragraph title: "LiteLLM — a router, not a runtime' ?

it's funny I quite like this blog post so I also read the previous post on that blog. And it said:

"It won't replace your staff engineer. It replaces the forty minutes before they open the tab. Your branch rots while someone's in a meeting three timezones away. The bot comments in ~30 seconds. You fix it while the code is still loaded in your head."

If I may propose a broader rule, that I think this post presents a special case of;

Only ever use AI to make yourself think harder, and more.

Sir, you have a knack for inspiring commentary: the exact opposite of damning with faint praise! Also 0% slop it made me pre-order the book immediately.

I think there is a better way: The colder something is, the less sweet it will taste. if you warm-up ice cream and taste how sickeningly sweet that soup is, you won't be having so much for a while...

So what do you think the rational response to the nukebullies should be? Give him all he wants? How are reasonable deterrence preparations "Bravado"?

Can you explain what you meant with this sentence on that page you wrote:

"That is the whole system, not a stripped-down mode you switch into."

Did I miss something or does this article not bother to indicate how much RAM their M4-Max had?

yeah my 'promptly AI' alarm clock almost always spends 7 days, as soon as the binary changes, even descriptions changes take several days

I was on unquantized 27B, and also Q8 K XL, same "Need do..." paragraphs. We landed in near but distinct morrasses I guess.
