I don't have an answer but I'd love to know this too. Why has Postgres got this unique staying power?

we may think more similarly than you seem to think...

this was more a slam on python packaging in general, than it is on the OpenAI implementation.

I wouldn't be surprised if many of the issues under this topic are more related to Python package version nightmares, than OpenAI's Python implementation itself.

AFAICT, this is a more advanced way of using Embeddings (which can encode for the vibes similarity (not an official term) of prompts) to determine where you get the most "bang for your buck" in terms of testing.

For instance, if there are three conversations that you can use to test if your AI is working correctly:

(1) HUMAN: "Please say hello"

    AI: "Hello!"
(2) HUMAN: "Please say goodbye"
    AI: "Goodbye!"

(3) HUMAN: "What is 2 + 2?"
    AI: "4!"


Let's say you can only pick two conversations to evaluate how good your AI is. Would you pick 1 & 2? Probably not. You'd pick 1 & 3, or 2 & 3.

Because Embeddings allow us to determine how similar in vibes things are, we have a tool with which we can automatically search over our dataset for things that have very different vibes, meaning that each evaluation run is more likely to return new information about how well the model is doing.

My question to the OP was mostly about whether or not this "vibe differentiated dataset" was constructed prior to the evaluation run, or populated gradually, based on each individual test case result.

so anyway it's just vibes man

Take courage and set out to write up the Great Discovery; if after many hours of red- hot thinking and writing you discover to your dismay a fatal flaw . . . all is not lost. Go back to the first paragraph and write something along the lines of “It is tempting to think that . . . ”

From the ARCHITECTURE.md:

Those pointers point to undocumented functions forming CUDA Dark API. It's impossible to tell how many of them exist, but debugging experience suggests there are tens of function pointers across tens of tables. A typical application will use one or two most common. Due to they undocumented nature they are exclusively used by Runtime API and NVIDIA libraries (and in by CUDA applications in turn). We don't have names of those functions nor names or types of the arguments. This makes implementing them time-consuming. Dark API functions are are reverse-engineered and implemented by ZLUDA on case-by-case basis once we observe an application making use of it.

Just tagging here to say I enjoy the site, but I agree with my parent ^ the popup slows me down

I'm web3 neutral, but this is relevant because:

1. Sam Altman started this company

2. He and other founders would benefit enormously if this was the way to solve the issue that AI raises, namely, "are you a human?"

3. Their mission statement:

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has accelerated the need to differentiate between human- and AI-generated content online Proof of personhood addresses two of the key considerations presented by the Age of AI: (1) protecting against sybil attacks and (2) minimizing the spread of AI-generated misinformation World ID, an open and permissionless identity protocol, acts as a global digital passport and can be used anonymously to prove uniqueness and humanness as well as to selectively disclose credentials issued by other parties Worldcoin has published in-depth resources to provide more details about proof of personhood and World ID

In all other circumstances I would agree with you but

I'm anxiously watching two developing spaces for this reason:

1. Homomorphic Encryption

2. Self-Hosted AI Systems

Homomorphic encryption is the idea that you can perform ML operations on encrypted data -- so that the providers of powerful AI need not know precisely what data you have.

Self-Hosted AI is just what it sounds like -- what if your Alexa processed on-device, and never left your home? What if your mobile devices could "phone home" to it from wherever you were, using an encrypted tunnel?

The second point is possible today, but the issue is keeping your local model to pace with the cloud offerings.

Based on our results, we find that PostgreSQL consistently exhibits equivalent or better performance for queries with an IN clause than OR clauses when filtering on a single attribute. This is especially true for queries with a large number of predicates. For small condition sizes (e.g., less than 10), the performance difference between the two query types is negligible.

TL;DR
