Retrieving or finding from the Internet is seldom “fair” in a statistical sense.

@alpha_alimamy Alpha Almany Kamara. Is this your paper? You need a website.   https://wwjmrd.com/archive/2022/5/1804/heart-disease-prediction-support-system-using-machine-learning-approaches   Naive LLMs cannot distill medical wisdom from stuff posted on the free internet, no matter how efficient the algorithms. If they only have partial or wrong information, they cannot make good decisions. When hundreds of millions or billions of humans

DM to Oliver Cameron about Global Open Sharing and Best Practice for the Internet

Cameron R Wolfe,   I am interested as well, but I am in the middle of trying to change OpenAI and the other commercial LLM sellers. They have atrocious business practices (or lack of them).   Can you recommend sustainable “best practices” for sharing and collaboration when reviewing sites, features, policies and methods in these

Ampere’s Law is not difficult, get the computer to help, pace yourself, never give up

Ampere’s Law: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fqwJyt4Lus Please do not say “It gets very complicated, very quickly”. Rather say, “It will take several or many steps, but none of them are impossible, or even that difficult. Faced with many steps just pace yourself and do not give up.” Please do not say things to elicit feelings of hopelessness. Or

Global Open Tokens (GOTs), Global and Universal tokens

Cameron R. Wolfe, Ph.D. @cwolferesearch New language models get released every day (Gemini-1.5, Gemma, Claude 3, potentially GPT-5 etc. etc.), but one component of LLMs has remained constant over the last few years—the decoder-only transformer architecture. This architecture has five components… Why should we care?… https://pic.twitter.com/7vn9GugHm1 Replying to @cwolferesearch Hello Cameron, With the Internet Foundation,

Internet Global Open Camera Data

Webcam Resolution at https://webcamtests.com/resolution I like the idea, but not sure if it is working. It did not ask me permission. On the Internet there are many more formats and a lot more flexibillity now. The high dynamic range (HDR) camera are basically more bits per pixel and I found ones routinely going 8/10/12/14/16 bits

OpenAI needs to seriously up its game, and get its website systems up to basic functioning level.

@OpenAI Your help.openai.com is not helpful at all. Is there any way inside ChatGPT Plus to ask a support question, start a support ticket, or ask questions about services and prices, features and how to request things?   CC: @xai @GoogleAI @huggingface   @elonmusk I copied you because you ought to have an AI reading

AIs need permanent memory, a self list, a copy of the rules of the world

Subbarao Kambhampati (కంభంపాటి సుబ్బారావు) @rao2z  Our #NeurIPS2023 paper on the planning (in)abilities of LLMs (https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.15771) gets discussed in The @NewYorker (https://newyorker.com/science/annals-of-artificial-intelligence/can-an-ai-make-plans)..  https://pic.twitter.com/Uqeb8sQQoS Replying to @rao2z and @NewYorker The current crop of LLMs do not have sufficient permanent memory. While the human problems are simple, humans have years or decades of tiny memories, including those years

Stable orbits inside central black holes

Physics World @PhysicsWorld New calculations that combine quantum mechanics with Einstein’s general theory of relativity suggest that gravastars could end up nested inside one another like a Russian Matryoshka doll https://ow.ly/kbNM50QVQGm Replying to @PhysicsWorld You should also find that any number of stable orbits of neutron and quark stars can fit inside a central black
