this prompt is extremely wordy, contains a lot og general considerations that I don't think the llm will take as actionable, repeats itself at a shallow level of abstraction, and is overly broad in its envisioned scope. one does wonder what the person who painstakingly typed in all of this text must have been thinking. also, where are the comparative stats about its prowess on representative tasks?
i was kinda hoping for TFA to finally produce some research outputs or even statistics, but sadly the `uncomfortable truths` are your usual vague talking points.
Sorry, I realize the headline perhaps implies something with more rigour than it actually delivers. I'm pretty new to writing blog posts! But if you want some actual factual data, you seriously should read Ed Zitron's blog: https://www.wheresyoured.at/
Leading to my question: Ok keeping a zero and a minus-zero does make sense for some limits calculations...
But when all you have is 4 bits, is this not quite wasteful? Would using the bits for eg. a 2.5 not improve the model?
It might be useful. The Lion optimizer uses 1-bit values to represent forward or backward. NNs can pick up on patterns like that in very strange ways. Of course, those are 1's, not 0's, so maybe the benefit disappears when multiplying by zero. But it's important to challenge assumptions like "well, let's get rid of the negative half of 0" before you test experimentally whether it's useful or not. NNs are nothing if not shockingly weird when you try to make them.

This is quite clear for younger people who grew in an interconnected world. But some old folks (73 y.o., 79 y.o.) seem to live in the old world where winning, or an illusion of it, is still a thing.
That word "Interconnected" is very important. As it's not an age thing, since many young folks may still think this way. It's an education thing. Uneducated/unconnected people are unable to appropriately interpret the world and the events that happen within it as they have not learned about or experienced similar situations and their outcomes/consequences.
It would, but only once you have fallen under the spell of thinking meaning and authority was to be found there. Consider your zone has been flooded maybe?
Come on, seriously? Then you have fallen into an old trap.
As it implies you think it would be good if someone who has to be brought before a court of law to answer for their actions, someone who has to be given a chance to defend themselve, and to be judged fairly by an assembly of their peer, gets the opportunity to die without this public reckoning?
do you have any evidence to back your claim? gangs employing teams of underage burglars assisted by risk averse adults with skills for entry and targeting are a thing. everyone has a mobile phone.
