Let me just say this way.

AI is a much better, so in some case worse, language lawyer than humans could ever be.


AI has basically removed my fear with regards to programming languages.

It almost never misses on explaining how certain syntax works.


> if OpenAI ran this 10000 times in parallel and cherry-picked the best one

This is almost certainly the case, remember the initial o3 ARC benchmark? I could add this is probably multi-agent system as well, so the context length restriction can be bypassed.

Overall, AI good at math problems doesn't make news to me. It is already better than 99.99% of humans, now it is better than 99.999% of us. So ... ?


I don't think so, unless you work for Top AI companies or teams in big tech.


Isn't the BoN RL formulation similar to DeepSeek's GRPO algorithm? The latter seems to implicitly already captured this?


Wouldn't RL training, with the goal of aligning the LLM with the reward function R(x, y), result in the outputs of the trained LLM maximizing said reward function? How different are the rewards of the N outputs in BoN sampling, to justify its cost.


No public information whether Google's investment in Anthropic leads to voting power though.


I think we can assume even if it is any voting power, it’s far less than 14%. No startup growing like that would give up shares with the same voting rights as the founders


Oh, you own the generator for you GPU as well?


And time, energy to maintain that.


Somewhat. Much less frequent than before

With LLM being good enough, I go to LLM for what I used to go for Wikipedia and StackOverflow.


There is no American hegemony in this current day and age. Probably dead like 15 years ago.

Say what you well regarding Trump, he understands this.

Trump is a smart man to spot problems, but he surely didn't know how to do it in a way that doesn't lead to self harm. He crazes for a bombastic firework that demands for all and any attention.

The US version of capitalistic economy has driven its internal inequality to the point the political system can no longer sustain it, while in the meantime, doesn't have an established social safe net, as major European countries have. So the populace elected Trump to root it up.

It is absurd, it is ridiculous, but deep down it is logical. Weird and dangerous time ahead.


I can't imagine any person having listened to Trump even once would in good faith claim he is a smart man


If he isn't a smart man, he can't be US president TWICE. Or being book smart is irrelevant. He didn't talk the way the political class prefers for sure, but it doesn't matter.

I judge things by outcomes, even Trump doesn't lack any credentials.


Rats and cockroaches are great survivors; neither are particularly smart.


The analogy is good but you picked up the wrong example. Rats are quite intelligent https://www.burgesspetcare.com/blog/rats/how-intelligent-are...


> If he isn't a smart man, he can't be US president TWICE.

or, maybe those who voted for him are dumber than him!!

Getting a job, aka campaigning in elections, is very different from knowing how to do the job! During the 2024 campaign, he told everyone whatever they wanted to hear—cheap prices on day 1, a reduction in inflation, home loans, and the end of wars. He fooled and lied to everyone. Burnt by high prices, people trusted him. Sure, he could be called "smart" to con the voters, but still too DUMB to understand how the government works especially in the US. Every day, he picks a new fight with someone :-)


Trump isn't smart, he is an idiot, but an useful tool to others so they made sure he gets elected a second time.


Yep, people behind Trump are the ones we should pay attention to. They are the ones with long term plans.


"You don't need to pass an IQ test to be in the Senate."


Who is laughing now?

It is clear NLU can't be done in the reign of PL itself, there is never going to be natural language grammar that is precise as PL.

But LLM is a different kind of beast entirely.
