I would rather pay for 4.5 by the query.

Why would I want Alexa+ if I have ChatGPT? Why isn't Alexa+ already a part of the Amazon Echo? None of this makes any sense.

I'm intrigued. We should think about this more.

When I see something I don't understand I use AI to help me understand it.

How about NO. Fuck off.

I think I'm in love.

Insurance needs to be not-for-profit or a government enterprise. Physical projects and infrastructure should not be started until risk is assessed. Speculators and go-go finance has ought to be constrained. As for myself, I am choosing alternative ways to plan, finance, build, and manage infrastructure project. The current systems is a non-starter for most people under 50.

Humans talk to people. It's about building a relationship.

And the engineering takes their crude tools striking inanimate matter while the mathematician and the physics argue over the nature of reality.

I believe these efforts are very important. If we want this stuff to be practical we are going to have to work on efficiency. Price efficiency is good. Power and compute efficiency would be better.

I have been playing with llama.cpp to run interference on conventional cpus. No conclusions but it's interesting. I need to look at llamafile next.

This might be the actual cost of LLMs. This would change the model considerably.

This doesn't increase my salary and if you are consultant it reduces your billable hours. No thanks.

That doesn't increase my salary. It just mean my boss will expect more work. $2400 a year. No deal.

I'm working with models and the costs are ridiculous. $7000 card and 800 watts later for my small projects and I can't imagine how they can make money in the next 5 to 10 years. I need to do more research on hardware approaching that reduces costs and power consumption. I just started experimenting with llama.cpp and I'm mildly impressed.

Does anyone know how they are going to make money and turn a profit one day?

Most Americans are illiterate. They don't have the capacity to understand the problem or the wisdom to care. (I wonder if they every had the capacity for either.)

And Nero played the fiddle while Rome burned.

Currently LLMs do not have executive or error detection cognitive abilities. There is no theory of self or emotional instinct and imperatives. At the moment LLMs are just mindless statical models.

No one cares. The people profit from this don't care. Virtually everyone who buys these products doesn't care either. If you care and you want to do something about it get on the next spaceship, leave the earth and abandon this unintelligent human species.

I suppose students need to prepare to defend what they are writing. Also, teachers may need a bit of a demotion when making accusations of plagiarism or generated papers. Teachers at the very least should be able to reasonably prove their accusations. There is a greater problem with tutors writing students papers. If teachers and students worked more closely this wouldn't be an issue.

This is good. It is long over due that we burn the social media sites to the ground.

With LLMs which programming language used becomes irrelevant. LLMs do not replace programmers yet but they do give programmers incredible leverage making these points moot.

They misspelled AI with Al. This Al guy sounds very dangerous.

The Secret of NIMH anyone?

Don't store secrets in env files. Use a secrets manager and a password manager. Configure SSO for everything. Use MFA for everything. Rotate your keys regularly. Do not allow long-lived user accounts to exists.

Unfortunately this doesn't solve the problem of over priced houses and property. We don't need these mansions. What is required is cheap land and affordable, maintainable houses. This market requires a complete teardown. I'm not going to be satisfied until trillions of dollars in phantom value is goes to it's ration number.

This is awesome.

While this is very nice what I need is my computer to take voice commands, read content in various formats and structure, and take dictation for all of my apps. I need this in my phone too. I can do this now but I have to use a bunch of different tools that don't work seamless together. I need the Voice and Conversational User Interface that is built into the operating system.

No.

Stop using the term "Hallucinations". GPT models are not aware, do not have understanding, and are not conscious. We should refrain anthropomorphizing GPT models. GPT models sometime produce bad output. Start using the term "Bad Output".
