How "smart" an LLM is--how much information is embedded into it--is directly related to how large it is. No matter how much we optimize the computation part, the primary performance limit for "good" models is how much data we can store in high speed memory. You could take any compute system and...

Recognition is easier than recall. If you can recognize whether the solution is correct, then it will save you from performing recall 72% of the time. This can generally be a time save.

Why is this the first picture I'm seeing of the new Bolt?

I think it still falls under "DRM".

My understanding is that the cane sugar breaks down quickly in the bottle into glucose and fructose in nearly identical to high fructose corn syrup very quickly. If there are taste differences, it would come from the glass bottle or placebo. Not the greatest youtuber these days but this...

Probably not going to attack an individual, but an organization that processes valuable data. With CPU Rowhammer, we can imagine targeted attacks that seek to exploit a hypervisor and grant privilege escalation. Once I achieve privilege escalation through the hypervisor on a machine, I can more...

Using LLM autocomplete in code, it hallucinations a lot of features that should exist, would obviously solve problems, but don't exist. Like CLI flags or configuration parameters that would do what you want :) Not a terrible idea to source those as inspiration for new features. But also...

$45M for US Digital Services would have been nice but I'm guessing that's not quite how the money would be spent.

I'm on my 4th flip phone, and 2 of the 3 previous went down to phyiscal damage. The first (Razr 5G) I dropped on a tile floor--while shut--straight on its hinge and the screen died. The third (Razr+ 2023) a cat bit the screen and it died instantly. Both had protective cases, but those don't...

It makes sense logistically. If you put a game on the cartridge, you have to wait for the game to be finished for some time before producing the carts. Putting a key on the cart decouples the two a lot and gives a lot of flexibility to developers and publishers. Plus, most games ended up with...

Um, okay, this would be a great way to make an NLP "AI assistant" which does tasks for you... But it would not be able to summarize emails, or do anything except provide verbatim results from outside data sources. I also feel like the Q-LLM still could be prompt injected to modify data...

It sounds like maybe these chips are inference focused? Inference is a really really basic operation compared to training, so it makes sense there's a lot of room for optimization. Hopefully it helps with energy consumption as well

There's a very interesting fight over the "open-ness" of AI happening right now. The continual releases of open-weights models like Deepseek, Qwen, and Llama are fueling open source and enthusiast marketplaces to build solutions almost as fast as the commercial providers. In my view, if AI...

The documentary "Revenge of the Electric Car" really gave me a lot of insight into Musk's personality, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to understand Musk more. Totally agree.

Can someone go back in time and share this sentence with humanity and ask them what they think?

Obviously this is the only group of people we need to poll on this issue.

In general the distribution (i.e. uploading) has been the offense. To make their cases airtight, MPAA/RIAA would actually join torrents and receive files from IPs to confirm they were distributing the copyrighted content. If Meta cannot be shown to have explicitly sent data to others, they might...

If this is a "fundamental problem" I'm afraid it affects almost all of society. It's not so much a problem as an oft-ignored constraint.

Is it just me or do all these images look like renders instead of photographs? Some of them on their official website don't even preserve the aspect ratio of the keys between them... This looks pretty sketchy to me. It's inspired by the flatiron building in that... it has a triangular shape? Is...

If you like greasy cheese and a dough that tastes best dipped in ranch, it's pretty solid. Can't say it's good for you though.
