@Vivek4real_ why use a chart from 2020 ... ?

[James Evans @dazzeloid]

Very proud that CommandBar is now sponsoring the Dwarkesh podcast (together with Stripe and v7 labs)

@dwarkesh_sp delivers probably the highest signal to noise in AI and tech generally. AND is exactly the same person privately as you see in the pod -- thoughtful, kind, diligent, ambitious.

Here's our V3 update to @stateofai Compute Index in collaboration with the team at @ZetaVector.

You'll now find updated counts of AI research papers using chips from NVIDIA, TPUs, ASICs, FPGAs, and AI semi startups, as well as updates to H100 clusters.

This!

With many 🧩 dropping recently, a more complete picture is emerging of LLMs not as a chatbot, but the kernel process of a new Operating System. E.g. today it orchestrates:

- Input & Output across modalities (text, audio, vision)
- Code interpreter, ability to write & run programs
- Browser / internet access
- Embeddings database for files and internal memory storage & retrieval

A lot of computing concepts carry over. Currently we have single-threaded execution running at ~10Hz (tok/s) and enjoy looking at the assembly-level execution traces stream by. Concepts from computer security carry over, with attacks, defenses and emerging vulnerabilities.

I also like the nearest neighbor analogy of "Operating System" because the industry is starting to shape up similar:
Windows, OS X, and Linux <-> GPT, PaLM, Claude, and Llama/Mistral(?:)).
An OS comes with default apps but has an app store.
Most apps can be adapted to multiple platforms.

TLDR looking at LLMs as chatbots is the same as looking at early computers as calculators. We're seeing an emergence of a whole new computing paradigm, and it is very early.

ChatGPT is a statistical representation of things found on the web, which will increasingly include ITS OWN output (directly and second hand).
You post something picked up from it &amp; it will use it to reinforce its own knowledge.
Progressively a self-licking lollipop.
Enjoy
