Seems the focus group guy's idea was good after all, kinda fair to just want a wheel that doesn't fall off while I'm driving [0].

> AI use also varies across income levels, rising from 9% usage among earners below $30,000 to 34% among those making $100,000 or more.

> Individuals with the highest incomes tend to use AI the most. This is a rational response if you believe that AI is a serious threat to your high-paying career.

I guess the good news is that TFA proves there are still some instances left of good, old-fashioned, human-produced sloppy logic.


One head of bison at a time.


Don’t forget the part where GP says they’re 25 years old (currently) and have spent “tens of thousands of dollars” on the platform.


Just a point of clarity (because I read that at first as well), they spent tens of thousands of robux, which are at a generic level 100:$1. So not as crazy as it sounds, still an investment.


My parents bought me lifetime OBC over a decade ago instead of an XBOX. I get 2200 Robux/month in passive income.


I think you need to stop assuming people know things like the value of Robux or what OBC is if you want to communicate with normal people about this stuff.


It doesn't seem surprising me they started playing at 7, and they were playing the game in 2008. I definitely recall the game taking off a good bit with little kids around that time. By like 2010 or so I knew of a ton of little kids who were at least aware of the game if they didn't play it themselves.

Game has been around for almost 20 years now.


> If you set it to 0 it makes the model deterministic.

No, it doesn't. It can help make the model more deterministic, but it does not guarantee it.


The hardware can also add nondeterminism. GPUs reorder operations, leading to different results.

Vendors might also be running A/B testing or who knows what, even when you ask for a temperature of 0.

But, if you run a fixed model with temperature 0 on your local CPU, it will be deterministic (unless there are bugs).


> They are not magic oracles.

I came across a LinkedIn post a couple days ago where someone had asked ChatGPT, "What are the top things you get asked about $NICHE_INDUSTRY_THING_I_AM_SELLING?"

As if there is introspection like that at the meta level, where ChatGPT could actually provide hard numbers around its own usage and request patterns.

The fact that these products work with natural language beguiles people into thinking they are, indeed, magic oracles.


This is the weird intersection where I think that data might exist and LLM might be able to query it. But any company would never give it out. So the bot would not have access to it.


> Still extremely hard to find seed for it though.

It’s not too hard to find in the US. You could buy five pounds of seed [0] right now if you wanted to.

They raised about a billion in their IPO. They're listed on the Nasdaq [0].

Seeing a photo of a filled-out System/360 assembler coding form is like looking at an ancient stone tablet. Imagine the reams of these forms you'd have to go through and iterate on to arrive at a functional piece of software.

The amount of time needed just for one trip around the feedback loop for the smallest imaginable tweak puts any amount of modern "trying to get the build/CI to pass" nuisance to shame.
