I used those two in combination to fix pain after 3x surgeries to repair a torn pec + infection. They work and helped me heal from being at a 3/10 constant pain down to baseline.

Not something I would do at any point for fun. But anecdotally, it's materially better than other alternatives offered/available.

Next steps for AI in general:

  - additional modalities
  - Faster FPS (inferences per second)
  - Reaction time tuning (latency vs quality tradeoff) for visual and audio inputs/outputs
  - built-in planning modules in the architecture (think premotor frontal lobe)
  - time awareness during inference (towards an always inferring / always learning architecture)

No other models that are public worth comparing to... Hippocratic advertises good benchmarks but that might be marketing fluff.

Have you checked out dataset building with nemotron? The nemotron synthetic data builder is quite powerful.

Moreso, check out model merging. It's possible if you merge some of your model against llama3.1 base it may perform much better.

We're excited to share pitchpilot with the HN community. Our beta users have found the embedded audio particularly useful for enterprise sharing. We're keen to keep improving, and our mission is to make communication easier.

In the roadmap is adding video export, digital twin presentations, and real-time presentations. We don't wrap a public LLM, so we don't share any data.

Tin-foil hat time:

1. First, models will predict pollution. The outcomes will help shape urban policy. But these won't solve crime or stop people from driving.

2. Second, models will predict individual behavior and track person level emissions. The outcomes will force behavior changes, mostly freedom limiting.

3. Third, and finally, models will predict thoughts. The the thought of driving instead of walking might trigger a response.

It's a slippery slope and we need to draw a line between prediction and policy.

It truly feels like the space race in terms of building LLMs right now. Question is, who lands on the moon first?

Unfortunately, the NSA & NIST most likely is recommending a quantum-proof security that they've developed cryptanalysis against, either through high q-bit proprietary technology or specialized de-latticing algorithms .

The NSA is very good at math, so I'm be thoroughly surprised if this analysis was error by mistake rather than error through intent.

For each step in the article:

1. You should really download the huggingface hosted model.

2. Why convert the model if meta already hosts it here: https://huggingface.co/meta-llama

3. This step completely glossed over the hardware requirements. Doesn't explain any of the instructions needed in the finetuning process.

4. "Now run the model". What? What about the model precision, hosting, standard open source tools, etc,etc...

Interesting that we ignore the physical environment as a contributing factor in IQ, growth, and development. For example:

* Iodine supplementation during early life (a few weeks) increases IQ * Organophosphate exposure increases autism (also why people who live near airports have higher incidence of cancer) * Phalates and non-sticks reduce male reproductive organ size * Music lessons in children increases IQ. * L-arginine during childhood increases height and free growth hormone

This sheds a light on some bad practices around all ski areas:

* J1 / E5 visa abuse to skirt labor and wage laws and get cheap investments

* Overselling / abusive terms of carriage for lifts

* Overpricing basic food and services, assigning abusive police-style regulators on slopes (looking at you vail)

So at the end of the day, we have to take a look and think: should lifting skiers up a mountain on a chairlift really be worth billions of dollars in market cap? Should mountains, who are almost 90% public land (in the USA), even be businesses?
