I saw a video that said @sama is trying to abolish capitalism entirely. Through the means of increasingly cheap intellectual work (AI), eventually, everything will be worth nothing making capital meaningless. I would argue he's the ultimate capitalist because OpenAI's goal is to

This vibe-coding thing? It’s in my blood. At 9, I’m running RuneScape private servers—hacking together janky worlds, tweaking drops, spawning chaos with friends. By 10, I’m coding bots—scripting them to grind 24/7. At 17, I’ve got a bot-net: 10 machines, 300 bots, running like

Giving very young kids access to real laptops with high ceiling video games is such a cheat code. My kids bootstrapped reading, math, spatial reasoning, etc, just because they had a *need* to do it since the carefully chosen games I've put them in front of *demand* it of them.

@Thrilluwu This isn't surprising at all. VR used in any situation where isolation is an issue will be a huge impact. There needs to be more attention brought to seniors with VR. There is no reason anyone should be aging in isolation with the technology we have.

“doing it in time” there are always at least 6 other teams of people around the world with access to the same information you have, and have reached the same conclusions you have. the timer is always ticking. execute, or be beaten to the finish line.

7/ In the end, Nokia didn't launch its first "real" iPhone competitor (the Lumia 800) until 4.5 years after this deck... and the resolution of the Symbian / Maemo struggle The hard part about the innovator's dilemma is not knowing what to do, but actually doing it in time

@growing_daniel they loosened their grip on their beliefs. the earthly nationalism brainworms started, then were accelerated by british border-drawing and throne-chasing brainworms. they were rightfully divinely punished by losing their seat on the global stage.

I've been telling you for a while not even to try to compete with machines at being a better machine. Instead, try competing with humans at being a better human.

@halvarflake @fimbulvntr @mbhbox What I mean to say is, yes, I recently sold an MI100 to someone who did the software heavy lifting himself and achieved better performance than similarly priced nvidia cards (i forget what the price equivalent card was) For a more recent comparison: blog.runpod.io/amd-mi300x-vs-…

@halvarflake @fimbulvntr @mbhbox The MI100 beat its counterpart at the time, it just needs a lot of software work. This makes benchmarking difficult

I’m increasingly coming around to the idea that the natural state is joy other emotions may arise, but if left alone and felt fully, they pass and transmute, leaving joy behind and it seems that joy is often there as a background tone even if other emotions are flowing through?

My post might make it sound like large context windows are obviously better—but that’s not true. Relying on long context windows often means oversights, forgetfulness, hallucination. Whereas RAG and other breakdown strategies can actually increase accuracy. Personally I do feel

After working with LLMs for 2 years, I’ve noticed that humans have very different short-term context windows too. Humans with small-to-mid sized context windows develop deep “breakdown” strategies early in life to deal with virtually everything. Ways of breaking down complex problems into smaller steps that can be chained. Their brains contain an enormous recipe book of these multistep breakdown strategies. Humans with very large context windows operate off raw intuition for a lot of life. They did not develop many of these multi-step prompting strategies as a child, and the idea of “processifying” work or breaking it down into smaller steps is *extremely* puzzling—feeling like it will only slow them down and confuse things. Both types of people have their strengths and weaknesses, neither is “better”. But man, we do not understand eachother, and how different our ways of interacting with the world are.

This is a great little book to take you from “vaguely understand neural networks” to the modern broad state of practice. I saw very little to quibble with. fleuret.org/francois/lbdl.…
