Would make interaction easier for ai agents on the web.
Wow, thanks for the correction. Didn't know this existed - to be fair, I only found a preview last year I tried, and paid up.
It would be great if all NeurIPS talks were accessible for free like this one. I understand they generate some revenue from online ticket sales, but it would be a great resource. Maybe some big org could sponsor it.
> Documents reviewed by 60 Minutes show OpenAI agreed to pay SAMA $12.50 an hour per worker, much more than the $2 the workers actually got, though SAMA says what it paid is a fair wage for the region.

Let me guess. SAMA had the classic sku/$/hr saas pricing.

> by using CSS for displaying the numbers, you put the validity of the documents in the hands of the rendering engine.

Any automation tool could result in a regression which may generate invalid numbering. At any rate, I doubt a court would ignore mens rea.

The interface looks very Apple as well. Looks like you create a config file, and you already have a model in mind with the hyperparameters and it provides a simple interface. How useful is this to researchers trying to hack the model architecture?

One example: https://github.com/apple/corenet/tree/main/projects/clip#tra...

Re:OpenAI's comment to the NTIA on open model weights on Monday April 01, 2024 @09:16PM (#39901330)
Q3-7 & Q3-5d get to the workability. I don't think OpenAI responds to that part of the RFC. Meta's comment on that issue seems to be fairly clear, they oppose the proposed rules on KYC for IaaS and are "not aware of technical capabilities that could not be overcome by determined, well-resourced, and capable actors".

Could be. Could also be that LLM is to OpenAI what information retrieval is to Google. A lot is publicly known in the information retrieval space, but google still dominates.
Looks like they draw a line at generative AI. CLIP / Whisper / Gym are open; Jukebox / GPT / DallE are not.
Re:How OpenAI is approaching 2024 worldwide elections on Monday January 15, 2024 @05:28PM (#39006949)
The question the blog asks on election procedure is easy to get right, why does ChatGPT refuse to answer? I'd bet the answer it would otherwise produce is reasonable. Perplexity gives a fine answer. The collateral damage from fixing hallucinations seems to hurt accessibility.

Should be fine, you can even compile and run a C file using a shebang
There are all kinds of externalities, including safety, which are ignored. US tax policy which allows write offs only for large vehicles which are more likely to cause deaths. Tire emissions. Congestion pricing -- common in Europe -- needs years or reviews and lawsuits. NHTSA doesn't require bicycle test devices.

Thanks. That explains why I never notice the difference.

This may be ignorant, but why does green/blue bubble matter for US folks? Almost all cell providers have free SMS/MMS. Would people even notice it if the color was always blue?

> The EU AI Act negotiations ended. One contentious issue was the regulation of foundation models, particularly open source ones.

> Kudos to the French, German, and Italian governments for not giving up on open source models.

> Juicy part: "The legislation ultimately included restrictions for foundation models but gave broad exemptions to “open-source models,” which are developed using code that’s freely available for developers to alter for their own products and tools. The move could benefit open-source AI companies in Europe that lobbied against the law, including France’s Mistral and Germany’s Aleph Alpha, as well as Meta, which released the open-source model LLaMA."

> No one knows how it works. Researchers simulate a weird type of pseudo-neural-tissue, “reward” it a little every time it becomes a little more like the AI they want, and eventually it becomes the AI they want.

There is a distinction to be made in "knowing how it works" on architecture vs weights themselves.

Re:Nepal bans TikTok and says it disrupts social harmony on Monday November 13, 2023 @11:57PM (#38259358)
Arguendo, assume Facebook lobbied for it. If only one market player doesn't follow an industry standard on public interest (consensus which prevents industry regulation), of course other players should lobby to get the player out.
google pays apple to keep the defaults, but are defaults really the problem in google's search engine market share? chrome is not the default on any non-android system and still wins. browser != search engine, but people do take steps to change experience.

my theory: google is paying for credibility, consumer perception, relevancy of apple.
