Re:Show HN: I made a game to improve my typing speed on Friday January 05, 2024 @10:44AM (#38880237)
Obviously this is more of a personal project to help you out, but could be cool if there were more characters (rest of lowercase, uppercase, special) and the speed kept increasing. Reached level 208 with a score of 2083 before I got bored.
Re:Gemini: Google's most capable AI model yet on Wednesday December 06, 2023 @07:29PM (#38551354)
Horrible comparison given one score was achieved using 32-shot CoT (Gemini) and the other was 5-shot (GPT-4).
Sounds like something right up the domain of synthetic data.

"Unreal Engine will no longer be free for non-gaming companies" is 100x less misleading. You are right in that technically speaking it's not misleading, but to me it feels like it's skirting the line of lying by omission. Obviously now with hindsight I can see how the "for all" changes the meaning, but it wasn't obvious (at least to me).
Re:OpenOrca: open source dataset and instruct-tuned LLMs on Thursday June 29, 2023 @02:00AM (#36516890)
OpenOrca's goal is to provide an opensource replica to Microsoft's Orca 13B model, so changing the name makes no sense.
Re:ChatGPT's Chess Elo is 1400 on Friday March 17, 2023 @02:41PM (#35201119)
I wonder how it would perform if you feed it a comprehensive chess rulebook, and to avoid all the illegal moves possible

I think it'll stop when browsers integrate an LLM powered summary tool
