Being a computer scientist who refuses to find anything about LLMs interesting right now is a bit like being a geneticist who refuses to find anything interesting about the recently opened Jurassic Park LLMs Related

The 2nd floating bridge access Lake Washington opened in 1963 (pictured here upper right). People called it the new bridge. A 3rd new bridge was then built next to the oldest bridge. A 4th new bridge was built next to the original bridge. Great wind barriers for water skiing. America Related

Setting up Grok @Bot for my wife. First thing she did was set up our calendar. She also connected her Gmail. I asked her to just ask it something. She opened voice mode and said, “Can you send an email to remind Fatih to mow the lawn?” Little did I know I was digging my own grave. Related

This is huge! You all know I'm a huge Cloud Agents fan. Even joined the team! :) For the past months or so, I rarely opened any localhost agent. This new feature is especially very important and useful for workloads that were hard to support with custom environments only. Give it a try. Quoting @cursor_ai You can now run Cursor cloud agents on your infrastructure, including pools of machines that automatically scale with demand. This lets you give agents access to internal services or specialized hardware, while the agent loop stays in Cursor. Related

I opened up Apple Maps' search box and its new ads suggested I go to JetBlue Airways, the JetBlue terminal at JFK airport 39 miles away. I opened up Google Maps' search box, and 100% of the screen space is devoted to my presets (Home/Work/etc.) and my Recent searches. Apple continues to embarrass itself with its shitty ad plays. In the meantime, I'll keep using Google Maps, because it's just *better*, and — something I never thought I'd say — it respects me more as the user, with fewer ads. 🤯 Google Related

Just saw that the LLMs-from-scratch repository passed 100,000 stars on GitHub! This is super cool and motivating. I am really happy to see that this open-source repo has helped so many people. Thanks also to everyone who shared ideas and opened PRs with improvements! Of course, I plan to keep adding new material, including new attention variants and architectures (while bigger projects like RL and Reasoning From Scratch live in their separate repositories). I am also currently working on a larger applied custom “small” LLM project. It has been keeping me super busy this month, but I will shar… LLMs Related

Founder and CEO of Boom Supersonic, the Denver company building the Overture supersonic airliner and its Symphony engine.
Their words
But if we fast forward half a century, this is the 787, their latest airliner, which by the way was launched more than 20 years ago. You can't spot the difference. It doesn't fly any faster. It doesn't make the world any more accessible.

there there's a one question we got to back up and really explore which is is AI a new platform and I would argue that it is not yet a new platform. It is an important technology.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
