A little birdie dropped by to give me the beast today. This thing is MASSIVE. Thanks @cfregly 🫡

Alibaba $BABA Chairman Joe Tsai: "We developed cloud computing really out of necessity, out of the need to become self-reliant" "If we continue to use third-party software and hardware, we will later on hand over all of our profits to these technology vendors" I absolutely

The death of the average. We are currently witnessing the total collapse of the marginal cost of creation. Copywriting, design, video editing - skills that previously commanded a premium due to the barrier of technical execution are being democratised to the point of

Remember the time when Steve Jobs pulls a MacBook Air out of an envelope and made marketing history.

While you doing gaming gpus & rushing to add DP4A & WMMA, I studied all the limits of physics. While you were out in an marketed theoretical flop race with AMD, I mastered jax xla<>TPU hardware software codesign to maximize MFU. While you wasted your days adding pyxis plugin

I put up a simple repo I call reader3 (it's my 3rd version...) to illustrate how I read EPUBs with LLMs. Basically get some epub (e.g. Project Gutenberg is great), go chapter by chapter, and with this you can easily copy paste text to your favorite LLM. https://t.co/HoBDxCJhdC

My coworker got promoted over me. He was worse at coding. Better at politics. I wrote better code. Fixed more bugs. Shipped faster. He talked in meetings. Took credit. Played the game. He got the promotion. I got "keep up the good work". That's when I realized: corporate

Remember this: The pain is all in your head. If you want to evolve, you need to go where the problems and the pain are. By confronting the pain, you will see more clearly the paradoxes and problems you face. Reflecting on them and resolving them will give you wisdom. The harder

LLMs are injective and invertible. In our new paper, we show that different prompts always map to different embeddings, and this property can be used to recover input tokens from individual embeddings in latent space. (1/6)

Instead of “I’m bad at this”. Say “This is new for me”. This gives your brain the space to learn instead of shut down. This is neuroplasticity in real time.

Sounds like a great idea, real innovation…

"In the hospital there are kids maimed by airstrikes: missing arms, missing legs, third degree burns. Often there’s not enough pain medication. But the children are not screaming about the pain, they’re screaming: 'I'm hungry! I’m hungry!'"
