We’ve trained language models that are much better at following user intentions than GPT-3 while also making them more truthful and less toxic, using techniques developed through our alignment research. These InstructGPT models, which are trained with humans in the loop, are now deployed as the default language models…
Your knight for my pawn, and you have to take it.
A new API is coming to the web platform to help you position elements in an adaptive way with no tricks.
It's not about technology for its own sake. It's about being able to implement your ideas.
Integer division is expensive. Much more expensive than multiplication. Much, much more expensive than addition. If you’re trying to make some integer operations really fast it’s bad news if you need to do division.
Studio Terabyte is a full stack web development studio who finds and builds solutions that fit your project
Author: Shiming Zhang (DaoCloud), Wei Huang (Apple), Yibo Zhuang (Apple) Have you ever wondered how to set up a cluster of thousands of nodes just in seconds, how to simulate real nodes with a low resource footprint, and how to test your Kubernetes controller at scale without spending much on infrastructure? If you…
On GPT-3: meta-learning, scaling, implications, and deep theory. The scaling hypothesis: neural nets absorb data & compute, generalizing and becoming more Bayesian as problems get harder, manifesting new abilities even at trivial-by-global-standards-scale. The deep learning revolution has begun as foretold.
The story behind Duolingo's 350% growth acceleration, leaderboards, streaks, notifications, and their innovative growth model
Vodafone today unveiled a prototype 5G network built on a credit card sized Raspberry Pi personal computer and an equally small, advanced silicon chipset. This industry-first concept will enable small businesses and households to extend 5G coverage and increase capacity according to their needs and to have their very…
UC Irvine discovery offers new therapeutic target for treating mental illness
GPT4, the start of The Great Implementation, a move from Generative to Productive AI, OpenAI's safety & growth strategies, and the future of work.

Three different cybercriminal groups claimed access to internal networks at communications giant T-Mobile in more than 100 separate incidents throughout 2022, new data suggests. In each case, the goal of the attackers was the same: Phish T-Mobile employees for access to internal company tools, and then convert that…
We’re introducing a neural network called CLIP which efficiently learns visual concepts from natural language supervision. CLIP can be applied to any visual classification benchmark by simply providing the names of the visual categories to be recognized, similar to the “zero-shot” capabilities of GPT-2 and GPT-3.

about me
So we've landed on Mars, now we need somewhere to sit. It's pretty expensive to ship furniture from earth, so time to start building some chairs.
In February 2022, I left my job at Splunk to take some time first to relax then to focus on finding a fantastic next job . I managed to do both during my three months of funemployment, landing a job at Stripe in the Atlas team in May. I was laid off in November 2022, along with most people who were hired during this…
Tutanota: We will not 'walk out' of UK like Signal. Nor will we comply with any request to bypass our encryption.
“Do The Simplest Thing That Can Possibly Work” – that’s what. Now, what does that mean?
I’ve been doing lots of experiments with GPT , though I’ve only written about one until now… the more serious something is the harder it is to call it finished or identify the outcomes. Here I’ll describe something a bit lighter: world building, or specifically city building, with GPT .
Many programming "best practices" taught today are performance disasters waiting to happen.
From the highly eclectic blog of Mark Dominus
If a single programmer builds something, it can be hard for others to maintain later.
You are most likely familiar with AWS Lambda and Fargate — Amazon's serverless computing engines. At its nature, serverless computing introduces quite a challenging task requiring both tight security and great performance. For exactly that matter Amazon came up with its microVM solution called Firecracker .
