@exodus Exodus Pay: you guys ask for a Tax ID for verification but that looks like a bug to me because the app refused to accept anything. Countries I've tried: Korea and Vietnam.

@windscribe You guys rock!!!

@minchoi it helped me fix my toy website too, https://t.co/mVKVPBHBLu
while cursor (powered by Claude 3.5) was struggling with context provided

big difference.

Shoutout to @wezfurlong for creating WezTerm, an emulator that strikes the perfect balance between flexibility, performance, and usability.
I chose it over Kitty, Alacritty, iTerm2.
Hopefully Notebook feature will be introduced .
I am using both Wezterm and Warp, for now.

not sure what "technology" facebook (meta) has now.

@aitaocao @jeremyphoward I don't think you appreciate Jeremy enough to say such a thing. If what you said was really misunderstood, that's on you.

After almost a decade, I have made the decision to leave OpenAI.  The company’s trajectory has been nothing short of miraculous, and I’m confident that OpenAI will build AGI that is both safe and beneficial under the leadership of @sama, @gdb, @miramurati and now, under the excellent research leadership of @merettm.  It was an honor and a privilege to have worked together, and I will miss everyone dearly.   So long, and thanks for everything. I am excited for what comes next — a project that is very personally meaningful to me about which I will share details in due time.

@janleike Never thought I would repost such a short Tweet, I mean X.

[Jan Leike @janleike]

Yes. Yes!!!! Everyone read this material three times!

@jeremyphoward It’s good to point out. However for the reporters and general audience the impression is the same even if you replace “transformers” by “GANs”.

Google announces Stealing Part of a Production Language Model

We introduce the first model-stealing attack that extracts precise, nontrivial information from black-box production language models like OpenAI's ChatGPT or Google's PaLM-2. Specifically, our attack recovers the embedding projection layer (up to symmetries) of a transformer model, given typical API access. For under \20 USD, our attack extracts the entire projection matrix of OpenAI's Ada and Babbage language models. We thereby confirm, for the first time, that these black-box models have a hidden dimension of 1024 and 2048, respectively. We also recover the exact hidden dimension size of the gpt-3.5-turbo model, and estimate it would cost under 2,000 in queries to recover the entire projection matrix. We conclude with potential defenses and mitigations, and discuss the implications of possible future work that could extend our attack.
