And this is why research is going in another direction: smaller models which allow easier experiments.
I am pretty sure that there are ASIC being put in production as we speak with Whisper embeded. Expect a 4 dollars chip to add voice recognition and a basic LLM to any appliance.
Also, as a side effect, we just solve speech recognition. In a year or two, speaking to machines will be the default interface.
Your assumptions are far more numerous and offensive than that. From you thinking that I know nothing about discrimination at work or my driving habits, or even assuming that you are more to the left than I am or that I criticize your positions for being leftist rather than being wrong.
The cherry on the top of you laying down a dozen of wrong accusation is you calling my attitude patronizing and belittling.
There is a company-wide demotivation plague at Google. Don't blame middle manager, it extends to the top.
it unusual for someone to get things this wrong this consistently.
At least we agree on something.
And once again your assumptions about my situation and my work ethics are hilariously wrong. I am cutting down my income in order to work non-profit on issues I do care about and turn down offers by unethical companies routinely. I am a freelance who changes client pretty often. My income does not depend on the acceptance of an ideology, I made sure of that and that was a reason for becoming independent.
I am sure I am not the first person you are antagonizing through your own projections. You should really be more careful about assuming things about the people who contradict you. Sometimes they just do it because you are wrong. Being more open to that possibility would make your life much better.
I use it almost daily.
It does produce good code. It does not reliably produce good code. I am a programmer, it makes my job 10x faster and I just have to fix a few bugs in the code it usually generates. Over time, I learned what it is good at (UI code, converting things, boilerplate) and what it struggles with (anything involving newer tech, algorithmic understanding, etc.)
I often refer to it as my intern: It acts like an academically trained, not particularly competent, but very motivated, fast typing intern.
But then I am also working on the field. Prompting it correctly is too often dismissed as a skill (I used to dismiss it too). It needs more understanding than people give it credit for.
I think that like many IT tech it will go from being a dev tool to everyday tool gradually.
All the pieces of the puzzle to be able to control a computer by voice using only natural language are there. You don't realize how big it is. Companies haven't assembled it yet because it is actually harder to monetize on it than code it. I think probably Apple is in the best position for it. Microsoft is going to attempt and will fail like usual and Google will probably put a half-assed attempt at it. I'll personally go for the open source version of it.
Par qui? Si je comprends bien, Alstom a vendu la filière à GE, GE la revend à l'état français. Ce serait en effet bien de savoir si on n'aurait pas économisé de l'argent (et du temps!) à directement faire racheter la filière par l'état en 2014, mais c'est pas impossible qu'on ait eu un prix au rabais.
Ce qui m'étonnerait par contre, c'est qu'il n'existe aucun conflit d'intérêt dans cette histoire. Trop de milliards qui passent trop près de gens malhonnêtes pour que j'y crois.
First time I have someone complaining about me giving sources.
You are mostly arguing on things we agree (there needs to be policy efforts, there needs to be some change, the current transition is too slow) and we mostly disagree on what is a data-backed observation: renewables augment while fossils go down. Within fossils, gas displaces coal but fossils in general go down. If you refuse graphs and numbers about good sources about it, I am at a loss.
Damn I want to read it but it is from the only two accounts I muted (for different reasons)
EDIT: God the sewer when you unblock Musk's account! I am never doing it again. Why do people talk over this stupidly noisy channel instead of having a threaded discussion like civilized great apes?
Tu y es allé avec des gens de Safecast ou il y a des visites plus officielles maintenant?
Wow! Super intéressant, surtout la partie sur les VJs!
