Re:DisTrO – a family of low latency distributed optimizers on Wednesday August 28, 2024 @12:22PM (#41381214)
It's a red flag that the 1.2bil model has to fit in gpu memory, happy to be provided wrong when the code drops
Can't say I mastered the concept either, I'm waiting for the code [0] to be release so I can run some head-to-head tests.

Great project and I'm happy to see it expand to more models!
Re:Reddark: Website to watch subreddits going dark on Friday June 09, 2023 @07:23AM (#36256195)
What's the new reddit to try?
Anything can end up in logs, then it depends on getting access to hosted splunk via employee creds, for a hypothetical breach.
There is a salary requirement, as not to under cut local works. Of course if you working over 40 hours a week maybe the company gets it's pound of flesh!

Sorry to hear you had this experience, I would say its worth giving another go maybe you can check out the IRC first to check the vibe before committing.
Re:Capturing the Flag with GPT4 on Tuesday April 25, 2023 @03:11AM (#35697434)
I appreciate they say they need to learn more about 'exec' when asking GPT4, it also plays well into some of the reading strategies I've seen to get a high-level understanding then read the documentation with more general idea going in, could also lower frustration for new engineers so they push through to the end!
Re:Supercharging Security with Generative AI on Monday April 24, 2023 @07:58PM (#35694849)
Sounds cool but I'm not seeing how this discovers IOC's or reverse engineers malware.
I'd like to see a yearly benchmark for models, could be logic puzzles or a suit of tasks but as it stands there is not good way to measure the ability of models.
Can some one test fizzbuzz, sounds silly tho a lot of models fail on the combination check in my tests.

You should look up for hackerspace's in you city, it's a space with tools to do projects.

We have seen hair works as a Nvidia only tech.. Compatibly could be why the licence theory was rejected.

What is chatgpt-turbo api pricing like .0001 pre 1k tokens, your paying more in workers salary at the moment.

Re:Nvidia RTX Remix Runtime Open Source Available Now on Thursday April 13, 2023 @07:32AM (#35553860)
I could see Nvidia licensing the tech to game publishers but they didn't get much uptake, so open source it is.
Re:Nvidia RTX Remix Runtime Open Source Available Now on Thursday April 13, 2023 @07:30AM (#35553844)
feel more likely to rip game assets and build in a supported engine like Unreal.
Re:Nvidia RTX Remix Runtime Open Source Available Now on Thursday April 13, 2023 @07:25AM (#35553801)
The of the widescreen fixes for the Unreal games was the addition of a dll file in the game folder.
Seems the fine tuned models I.e. gpt4all and alpaca are trained as LoRa's. Best advice is jump in and try the demos on hugging space!
Re:Ask HN: Do you have GPT-4 access? on Sunday April 09, 2023 @07:11PM (#35507381)
Silly question, but would it be more impactful to use grey or open models to achieve the goals? End of the day the finally model may need to run outside a datacenter so if people don't fine-tune models this could be a limiting factor.
LoRa has been pretty popular and untill the llama leak was not aware of it, maybe will see something cool out of the open assistant project, we have a lot of English and Spanish prompts and was crazy to see people doing an massive open source project for ML.
Would like to see a yearly benchmark's for models like this!
