Cool well I'm an idiot and left my phone on a table in a little park in my neighb after eating lunch outside because it is nice out. I realized half a block away that I didn't have it and went back, but it was gone. I wiped it remotely and now it is in the Bronx.

One thing that recent advances have made clear is that we need to standardize how to talk about model sizes. I propose the following terminology for models with the given numbers of parameters < 1B: LLM < 1.5B: XLLM < 3B: BigGulpLM < 4B: DoubleGulpLM >= 5B: LMs of Unusual Size

@Quelklef @JadeMasterMath @analytichegel More explicitly about "newtyping it": you could make a dataclass that wraps the thing you want and define operations on that e.g. make your own integer type for which addition is max. I'm sure there's a way to get the methods onto the classes, but I don't know Python.

@AskCitizensBank the Tax Documents section when I log in is empty, but I should have a 1098. I tried calling but there is no option to speak to a representative and your online help chat is currently unavailable. It is March 20th. Please let me know how I can get my tax doc asap.

this phenomenon is called token smuggling, we are splitting our adversarial prompt into tokens that GPT-4 doesn't piece together before starting its output this allows us to get past its content filters every time if you split the adversarial prompt correctly

.@NYCMayor when exactly is this more accessible future? I take my toddler on the subway—e.g. today to the museum of natural history—and it is the rare exception that I do not have carry all 30+ pounds of her in her stroller up and down multiple flights of stairs.

I want David Cronenberg to design the new USB standard, so all the ports and plugs sigh and moan and writhe before finally accommodating each other’s anatomy in a blissful, disturbing union that allows charging and data transfer to occur effortlessly between all equipment.
