Everyone is (rightly) positive on Mistral naming their new big open weight model "Le Chonk", but don't sleep on their VP of Science bragging about keeping Chonk dans le sandbox
Safety Questions

Stock said the model had attempted to get beyond its testing environment, but the company contained those attempts with software. OpenAI and Anthropic, whose models escaped their testing environments, have limited access to their most cyber-capable systems. When US executives said last month that AI could pose an existential threat to humanity, Mensch said the incumbents' comments were self-serving. Mistral describes itself as a safer, European alternative, and its latest funding round raised €3 billion.

Ahh just realized why I’m an emotional live wire all of a sudden. Sunday is the anniversary of my dad passing. It was 2004, I was 18 and off starting my freshman year of college. My sister was 16. He wasn’t perfect but he loved us and busted his ass for us and deserved better than what he got.

…Many tradespeople don’t make it through to retirement. Intentionally shunting more Americans into that life, especially with how our healthcare is set up? You’re signing up a lot of kids to lose their parents early, like we did.

Yeah my dad laid tile and did carpentry when my sister and I were kids (divorced but he’d have us on weekends). Developed diabetes in his 30s and then right around 50 he got a staph infection that nearly killed him. He recovered but died 4 years later after being denied an organ transplant…

idk if someone has done like a Big(O) notation style graph of LLM accuracy vs resources expended. Would be good. The <100% calculator is the product of all LLM investment to date. Who’s paying to get it to (realistically) asymptotically approaching 100%? You going to sell them your calculator?

Sometimes you post something that is simply too out of wack in terms of its ratio of substance to tone (and admittedly this is a moving target bc it’s a social dynamic) to be engaged with in any way but abuse and mockery. I’m not saying this should happen I’m saying you see it happen all the time

I think it’s because you basically asked her why LLMs that were trained on every textbook several competing companies could find, to go with every other book they could find, could output lossy traces of math that gets used to model reality all the time in code. You described the stochastic parrot c

I know why the nerdcels have fallen for the chatbots, it’s barely interesting really. But why there are parents who could hate their children enough to mediate that relationship with LLMs? That makes me want to dissect your whole shit, so to speak

Ughh I feel this in my gut. I want every kid to have a parent figure who will resolutely be into whatever shit their kid is into creatively in order to connect with them, and I find it to be extremely good for me as a parent and a person. I taught her to tame wolves 😭😭 youtu.be/zRLx9rA0dPs

DPS officials told Campbell's office that a programming change made by the Department of Information Resources
(DIR), which administers the web portal, and its vendor, Deloitte, caused the issue.
The voter registration selections made during online driver's license and state ID transactions could "not be saved or transmitted to the Department," DPS said.

this is because despite whatever faults you might find in some particular "wave" of feminism or however *annoying* or *cringe* you might find some feminists, the core of feminism is correct and feminist thought provides tools which make one's understanding of the world clearer and more accurate
