Please ignore the deluge of complete nonsense about Q*.
One of the main challenges to improve LLM reliability is to replace Auto-Regressive token prediction with planning.

Pretty much every top lab (FAIR, DeepMind, OpenAI etc) is working on that and some have already published ideas and results.

It is likely that Q* is OpenAI attempts at planning. They pretty much hired Noam Brown (of Libratus/poker and Cicero/Diplomacy fame) to work on that.

[Note: I've been advocating for deep learning architecture capable of planning since 2016].

@Racem Smart. C'est pourquoi on va assister au développement de devices garantissant l'authenticité des images produites. Des cameras pourront bientôt signer les images produites. Les caméras de sécurité seront les premières à proposer ces mecanismes. Un jour les smartphones ? Probable.

AI is the exact opposite of a solution in search of a problem. It's the solution to far more problems than its developers even knew existed.

Researchers at the University of Toronto used cell phone usage to measure the rebound from Covid in different downtowns, and no big American city's is more than 2/3 of what it was. SF is by far the worst off, at only 1/3 of 2019.

Incredible set of graphs on local businesses from Yelp here.
- many, many permanent closures of small biz
- restaurants particularly impacted (60%!)
- trends accelerating

American ideology distilled: Anything that's not about building a business and "driving a Mercedes" gets filed under a "waste of time", even when it's even "fucking fun". Ugh.

C’est la peur de faire confiance aux acteurs francais de l’écosystème qui motivent ce type de décisions. La solution existe toujours. Le lobbying de la religion «Microsoft» arrive à faire croire le contraire. C’est un combat. On va continuer et un jour on gagnera. Ensemble.

I like the consistency message, but the sleep-deprivation heroics are as stale as they are debunked. I've consistently gotten 8-9 hours of sleep my entire adult life (minus some early baby months!). I've worked my dream job, and I've helped a few others find theirs too 😄✌️

@akatasonov What makes it difficult and expensive? Company culture isn’t built, it’s a 50-day moving average of *what you do*. Company culture is a byproduct of consistent behavior.

#OVH is down. I could access https://t.co/TKpx7x4gAj a minute ago and here is what it says. Not really reassuring to read that the Anti-DDoS is down amongst other things.

Hello @pivotaltracker! The recently released "Single Click to open stories and epics" feature breaks the usability. 1. When starting a story it opens the details. 2. When selecting / checking a story it opens the details. To name only two. Can you guys fix this please ? Much love

Dont worry bro ⭐️⭐️

I deeply dislike the "nocoiner" insult. No, people who do not hold cryptotokens are not uncool losers. They are people using very reasonable heuristics in not personally participating in an industry that they do not understand and there are many justifiable reasons to be wary of. https://t.co/25ZBMVmhvx
