Usually the reverse problem is happening - company does pump its stock based on potentially having their drug accepted but it’s usually the case that it will be rejected - but you don’t k ow that for sure for many years - prediction market may help here

Teaching model to code in say python does indeed increase its effectiveness in other seemingly unrelated areas. On the other hand I remember that early models of ChatGPT were great in chess notation and later models aren’t as good as OpenAI doesn’t prioritize this now

Wondering why the obvious solution isn’t applied here - instead of giving already well known problems that have been solved thousand times give students open research opportunities- stuff which is on the edge of being possible, no way to cheat with Ai. And if Ai is able to solve those - give harder tasks

Made this mistake years ago: figured I’d just throw it in a Docker with Python 2.7, problem solved. 8 years later nothing builds anymore. Base images gone, dependencies don’t resolve. Turns out containers don’t actually freeze time, they just delay the pain.

That’s just the illustration. But this is misleading - I will fix it asap and show real examples. I’ve run the mistral ocr on other benchmark

I wish Zed would implement support for Jupyter notebooks first. Maybe this sounds like a thing I can contribute

If you assume that the costs of inference would continue to decrease while they would be able to get billion people hooked on 42 per dollar plan..

That’s $0.5 trillion revenue rate

We kind of actually trade with ants - in some forests there are structures for them and we build wooden structures to protect them, in exchange for them keeping the ecosystem safe from rotting animals and kind of cleaning / rotating biomass

Will share python implementation soon as a kind of executable pseudo code which then can be ported to any platform.

This project is kind of like ultimate nerdsnipe as math is quite simple, you don’t need PhD to understand it and actually implementing things would teach you linear algebra faster vs just mindlessly doing exercises sets.

This rule is very wrong for the things like an iPhone which while expensive won’t be using a lot of electricity in its lifetime
