Mass-generating PRs with your agents and clawbots isn't helping open source. It's quietly burning out the people who actually maintain it. Please stop.

I like it, ppl usually shout you should have "agency and taste and be smart" but this is highly biased towards a crowd in the echochambers found on this platform
To restate the argument in more obvious terms. The eventual end state of labor under automation has been understood by smart men (ie not shallow libshits) for ≈160 years since Darwin Among the Machines. The timeline to full automation was unclear. Technocrats and some Marxists

1/The call for a 6 month moratorium on making AI progress beyond GPT-4 is a terrible idea. I'm seeing many new applications in education, healthcare, food, ... that'll help many people. Improving GPT-4 will help. Lets balance the huge value AI is creating vs. realistic risks.

If you think the AI is sentient, you just failed the Turing Test from the other side.

interesting to me how many of the ChatGPT takes are either "this is AGI" (obviously not close, lol) or "this approach can't really go that much further". trust the exponential. flat looking backwards, vertical looking forwards.

The striking thing about the reaction to ChatGPT is not just the number of people who are blown away by it, but who they are. These are not people who get excited by every shiny new thing. Clearly something big is happening.

I’m sick of hearing crypto confused with a heavily-marketed centralised, mismanaged exchange. FTX’s failure is far from a harbinger of crypto. Quite the opposite: it’s a concrete demonstration of the need for more, better decentralised, trust-free technology.

I’m so proud to work with the @EtherOrcs team! @b33feth @poof_eth . It’s a real honor to work with an indie team that works as hard as they do! All for the passion of making a great web3 game! Go play @EtherOrcs!!! The @DigiDaigaku event is amazing! 🫡

If there is one thing the deep learning revolution has taught us, it's that neural nets will outperform hand-designed heuristics, given enough compute and data. But we still use hand-designed heuristics to train our models. Let's replace our optimizers with trained neural nets!

Tired of tuning your neural network optimizer? Wish there was an optimizer that just worked? We’re excited to release VeLO 🚲, the first hyperparameter-free learned optimizer that outperforms hand-designed optimizers on real-world problems: https://t.co/zarCWuqIWb 🧵

It's only work if you would rather be doing something else. Find a way to carve a career out of what you already want to do.

Thanks Lex, I've enjoyed many of the previous episodes so it was a pleasure to come on! (we've known each other from before the podcast (via MIT/autonomy), it's been awesome to watch you grow it so successfully over time 👏)
Here's my conversation with Andrej Karpathy (@karpathy), a legendary AI researcher, engineer, and educator, and former director of AI at Tesla. This chat was super fun, technical, and inspiring. https://t.co/1CA6jtfvNg
