Good for you George E Collins.

I think that's a rather conspiratorial way of framing it.

I think it's more about someone trying to do the most good that was possible at that time.

I doubt he cares much about prizes or money at this point.

It's hardly a conspiracy to use strategy and intelligence to maximize the probability of achieving the outcome you desire.

He doesn't have to care much about prizes or money at this point: he won his prize and he gets all the hardware and talent he needs.

Has that site been /slashdotted by HN? It's really buggy for me.

The models themselves represent the biggest deflation cases I've ever seem.

The charged cost of a frontier model is ~200x lower than 2 years ago, and the ones we are using now are much better - although measuring that and how much is challenging. Building a "better than GPT-4" model is also vastly cheaper than building GPT-4 was... perhaps 1/100th?

The is a great point that wasn't included in the original article. Thank you.

Nonsense.

- voting population? What are you on about? It's everyone older than 18.

- you are not allowed to say "let's go and kill xxxyyy" or "burn hotel xxxyyy" but more or less you can say anything else. You might get sued if you say "Kier Starmer is an XXXYYY" but possibly not.

- this is using a system such as the one that operates in many countries - like France. But note: Germany ditched jury trials in 1924...

I've seen a couple of stories - like this one - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15302729/Assault-vi... - that make me think there's a very liberal interpenetration of "hate crime", as in there doesn't need to be an underlying crime but speech alone if offensive enough is criminal.

16 year olds have just been given the vote by the Labour government in an attempt to shore up their support because they’re going to lose the next election. Lowering the power of my vote as an adult taxpayer by enfranchising teenagers who get their political nous from TikTok is pretty disgusting.

- voting population? What are you on about? It's everyone older than 18.

It'll likely be 16. And I believe bringing in more population that is a lot more likely to vote for your is also part of that.

Unfortunately the system has basically been collapsed by industrial scale theft and fraud, and the impact of covid...

What matters of criticizing the UK? Let's have the specifics to discuss?

My coffee maker app is quite disappointing.

I imagine you’re being facetious but I wouldn’t count food-related products for the most part. It’s not like Claude is brewing a pot for me anyway lol

I think that Google didn't see the business case in that generation of models, and also saw significant safety concerns. If AI had been delayed by... 5 years... would the world really be a worse place?

Yes - less exciting! But worse?

The product is the LLM, the wrap has marginal value atm.

You can write an agent, it's cool. I can copy it.

I cannot build my own LLM (although I can run open source ones).
