That is pretty compelling. Probably another layer you use by default but can swipe to the gui search layer or full control. As usual, nerds will default to full control.


Why doesn't it mention the lmstudio dependency in the local docs here https://docs.openinterpreter.com/language-model-setup/local-...?

And the linux build must be requested from discord: https://lmstudio.ai/


We actually just had a cat change her food seeking behavior by exactly 1 hour during daylight savings, which allowed us to mostly exclude her internal clock and time sense.


I have 1 of these for work and 1 for home. I'm waiting 5 years from release, so about 2024-2025. Computers got really good around 2017, and the only reason to upgrade is the heat and fan. I use remote VMs anyways, so chrome is really my limiter.


What brand of 4tb nvmes are you using?


I scooped up some MP34s on sale. The have something like a 1.6 PBW endurance rating and I haven't had a single one fail or start throwing errors yet (though my workload isn't as write heavy as many might have).


That's cool. I use some 4 tb silicon power brand drives. I didn't research them much. Prices are definitely going to fall soon on 8 tb, and I'll likely retrofit things pretty quickly with those.


Name & shame


Pretty much everywhere, unfortunately.


For software contexts, we refer to space as memory or overall storage depending on the architecture.


Yet when refering to both space and time, you should consider explicating that space = memory, time = time.


> you should consider explicating that space = memory, time = time.

That seems unnecessary. Even a layman knows that in the context of a computer, space != physical space. Most people think of disk space, but it can also refer to memory usage [0]. The meaning of the name was obvious to me after reading the first half of the first sentence of the article. I thought it was clever :)

It definitely reduced the amount and complexity of work there is to do. So, in a static market, it reduced the number of workers. It's hard to see in tech which is an expanding market.


There is no such thing as a static market though. There is no fixed demand of tech or really anything else. People will consume as much tech as they can afford. And if the product gets cheaper, the market just consumes more of it. Notice how the iphone never gets cheaper, it just becomes more capable. You can in theory buy a bottom tier smartphone for $50 which is more capable than the original iphone, but this isn't interesting to most people.

So viewing it in such a contrived way is just not useful. If anything, the more automation we get, the more demand for tech workers there is because it's able to deliver increasingly more value.


I believe AI will be amazing at driving job creation - it can be applied to almost all fields and it never works well on its own, it always suffers from limited autonomy.

Say your model makes 99% correct predictions, in 20-30 time steps that error rate drops to 73%, that is just not ok for automation. But real accuracy rates per time step are much lower.

Compounding errors even when they are small lead a system astray. I think there is no form of AI that achieves autonomy in any field. We're at minutes of autonomy, or seconds. Nobody can go on vacation and leave AI do their job.

On the other hand AI will open up new opportunities and markets. Demand will scale up to meet the new productivity level. We can always desire more, it's not a fixed sum game.

More fundamentally, LLMs are interpolating between and combining known skills. They don't do radically new discovery. Why? They train on human text instead of human text + world feedback. In order to surpass human experts AI needs labs, experiments or the ability to create its own experience.

I can only name AlphaZero, AlphaTensor and AlphaFold as superhuman AIs, and they have been trained on massive experimental feedback, not just text.


This is cruel, but fair.


Whole market funds, but preferably multi market funds. Basically VT. But you can foray into VFIAX.
