My prediction is that this becomes permanent. There is no good reason to be much more expensive than opus. At $4/$20 they are roughly at parity.

Making 2/10 permanent would be a killer move and make a strong argument against open-weight. For the sake of the open weight ecosystem I hope they do not.

The fact that GPT-4.1 was the judge does not convince of the validity of the bench.

Sad. This guy was such a force of nature and a uniquely wonderful, creative personality.

This is not true in my experience. Cranking out code is obviously the bottleneck, unless you have the luxury of working on a very narrow problem. The author describes a multi-modal project that does not afford this luxury.

Complete nonsense. Intel 18A, were yields good enough, is competitive with TSMC N2.

Based on their heavily biased view of the Gaza conflict, based on their Arabic affiliations and the Hamas-run Gaza government’s reporting.

LoRA and QLoRA are still fine tuning I thought? Just updating a subset of parameters. You are still training a base model that was pre-trained (and possibly fine tuned after).

You can’t possibly be naive enough to believe that Nvidia’s Titan class cards were designed exclusively for gamers.

Moving away from color and race blind hiring to discriminatory hiring was not woke, by your definition.

Yes there should be. We don’t want to pay literal 10x markup because the card is suddenly “enterprise”.

> Writing naive algorithms

Depends on the circumstance, and how difficult an appropriate algorithm is to write, but in my experience, if code performance is important, this tends to yield large, painful rewrites down the road.

2.5-3 micrograms per deciliter is nothing. Wouldn’t even come up as elevated by current childhood screening guidelines. I very much doubt 2-3 IQ point difference.
