Hot take: Apple is second only to NVIDIA when it comes to AI. They have been doing it a long time, their own hardware and importantly mature and robust software on top of it. #wwdc

I aspire to the level of brazenness whoever makes the marketing charts for NVIDIA has attained

Remember in 2016 people were going to hail a self driving Uber instead of owning a car and driving themselves

An ablation study is not mathematical rigor. It’s an empirical experiment.

It’s gotta happen imo. Book to chapters, chapters to paragraphs, paragraphs to sentences, sentences to words, words to letters. Low frequency to high frequency.

Open source is fine but it’s not possible to compete against someone like Google who provide production services at a loss. Unless you have funding and can do the same. Which is still putting control in the hands of the few that can run at a loss for extended periods of time.
