We know he doesn't write them. We know he rarely even reads them. Ask yourself who this power would be handed down to. The techbros' POTUS-in-waiting?

The mainstream news media has no playbook for politicians answering questions directly. TBF, it's been a long time since any politician has.

"It would be a huge distraction"

U-huh

Bear with me on this. What if owning stuff isn't a skill, and people shouldn't get paid for it?

BREAKING — 51 Iranian children are dead after a strike hits Minab girls elementary school in Iran.

Corporate sales: people who don't understand what they're buying negotiating with people who don't understand what they're selling.

The most realistic part of the show is potential customers negotiating with people who have zero understanding of what they're selling.

I learn so much about business from The Apprentice.

You design a product following the direction of the loudest person in the room.

And then, after the product can't be changed, you do market research.

People power led the Greens to victory in Gorton and Denton The party’s historic byelection win was earned by listening to voters, not ignoring them, as Labour has done

The Green Party took on the billionaire donors.

And won.

A white female plumber, a Jewish gay man and a Muslim wan walked into a hall....and united a community.

How can I explain royalty to people in countries that don't have hereditary monarchies?

We tried selective breeding of humans, and it didn't work.

And in that sense, it's not a product focus. It's a problem focus.

Every requirement's a hypothesis, and every release is an experiment to test that hypothesis.

If we add a "Best Vegan Takeaways" bar to the home page, do sales of vegan takeaway go up? Do sales of non-vegan takeaway go down?

It helps to have clear, testable goals.

"Ah, but what is 'accuracy'?"

I refer the honourable gentleman to my previous answers about people who resort to philosophy in discussions of practical matters.

For teams deploying multiple times a day, this has always been true

This blows the business models of the hyper-scalers out of the water. (Not that they actually had a business model, but let's pretend that losing money on every token is a plan.)

So who'll train the hyper-scale "teacher" models? I think research facilities like CERN may provide a bit of a clue.

And it would run on a high-end gaming GPU.

I think I'd probably bet on that as the more likely future.

Hyper-scale LLM inference may never be economically viable, for a whole host of reasons.

But a hyper-scale LLM can be distilled into an SLM that can get within the ballpark of it's "teacher's" performance at a fraction of the inference cost - we're talking orders of magnitude.

Just flipping through the Rolodex in my mind of "What if" scenarios relating to strategies built around LLMs - e.g., what if the hyper-scalers go bust? - and how the risks could be mitigated.

The only Plan B that would work in *every* scenario is "people".

Going forward, perhaps it should be "First, there are moral and ethical issues"?

CNN reporting that the strikes on Iran tonight are joint US and Israeli strikes.

Which means Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time.

What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.

Trump had no choice but to act. The Iranians were just weeks away from obtaining the missing Epstein files.

How Can We Progress Past “AI” Woo? For decades, when I’ve interacted with folks working in machine learning, one of the big questions that comes up is “How do we test these systems?” Traditional software’s be…

Our social media feeds are overflowing with all kinds of claims about "AI" coding assistants and "agents". It's hard to see a clear signal in all the noise.

What's really real and what really works?

We're not going to figure it out with "feels".

Epstein files contain explicit but unsubstantiated claim that Trump abused minor Department of Justice did not release FBI memos when it uploaded millions of pages of files beginning in December

The Guardian obtained the missing 302s. This story destroys the DOJ's excuse that they withheld the last three interviews because they were duplicative. The accuser covered different ground in different interviews.

With a current cash burn rate of $billions, how long might Anthropic be able to limp on without their main investors?

Or with a debate.

I'm interested in what's real and what works. You don't discover that with a committee.

That's a shame. I'm really hoping to find more and better data. When we're testing hypotheses about ML systems, we really need to look for trends.

Can we see the session logs?

People? Just a thought.
