@karpathy Needed more tokens huh

@JeffDean @JeffDean will be awesome if you can open source a methodology/guide that can allow the community extend and grow the dataset. A governance might need to be setup to merge PR and maintain the quality happy to help!
Thanks @JeffDean and @GoogleAI team for that.

@akshay_pachaar The question is framed as an unsupervised learning problem IMO

🚀 We’re introducing OpenIP. Our approach to making innovation more accessible. Patents should foster innovation, not prevent it.

OpenIP = our commitment to use IP rights defensively, not against good faith builders.

Why? Because the best ideas are found when everyone can contribute ⚡🌍 https://t.co/FIbbBZ6urU

New breakthrough quantum algorithm published in @Nature today: Our Willow chip has achieved the first-ever verifiable quantum advantage.

Willow ran the algorithm - which we’ve named Quantum Echoes - 13,000x faster than the best classical algorithm on one of the world's fastest supercomputers. This new algorithm can explain interactions between atoms in a molecule using nuclear magnetic resonance, paving a path towards potential future uses in drug discovery and materials science.

And the result is verifiable, meaning its outcome can be repeated by other quantum computers or confirmed by experiments.

This breakthrough is a significant step toward the first real-world application of quantum computing, and we're excited to see where it leads.

@AbrisGains @grok is it true

[Fabrice Zapfack @Mr__Fab]

@KamtoOfficiel @grok please explain the context

@nrehiew_ Can't wait to see what will come out of it. Game changer for multi-modal settings

@karpathy Based on your arguments the term LLM could not have been more accurate. It also comes to the definition of language and it is linked to the ability of providing information/meaning through a stream of tokens (words, phonemes, protein, bits...)

@africatechie C'est qui "les égaux" dont on parle 🤔?

[Fabrice Zapfack @Mr__Fab]

@noahedelman02 @nonmayorpete good one 😅
@GoogleAI what do you think of this feature ?

[Fabrice Zapfack @Mr__Fab]

@DrJimFan @RichardSSutton That's the popular brute force approach that will always lead to big stochastic parrots.
As nature shows us, intelligence is not about storing trillion of information
