This blog is intended to be a place to share ideas and results that are too weird, incomplete, or off-topic to turn into an academic paper, but that I think may be important. Let me know what you think! Contact links to the left.
Late last month, I received a message.
Tired of equations and matrices? Ready to learn the easy way? This post explains the Kalman Filter simply with pictures and examples!
[Special thank you to Ian Kivlichan for many useful pointers (E.g. the 100+ year old Nature paper “Vox populi”) and nice feedback. 🙏 ] High-quality data is the fuel for modern data deep learning model training. Most of the task-specific labeled data comes from human annotation, such as classification task or RLHF…
Ollama now has initial compatibility with the OpenAI Chat Completions API, making it possible to use existing tooling built for OpenAI with local models via Ollama.
Bard is now known as Gemini, with a mobile app and an Advanced experience that gives you access to our most capable AI model, Ultra 1.0.

AI output is fundamentally derivative and exploitative (of content, labor and the environment).
We’re developing a blueprint for evaluating the risk that a large language model (LLM) could aid someone in creating a biological threat. In an evaluation involving both biology experts and students, we found that GPT-4 provides at most a mild uplift in biological threat creation accuracy. While this uplift is not…
We had interviewees use ChatGPT without their interviewer knowing. Here's what happened.
LLaVA team presents LLaVA-1.6, with improved reasoning, OCR, and world knowledge. LLaVA-1.6 even exceeds Gemini Pro on several benchmarks.
On November 6, 2023, OpenAI announced Custom GPTs. Since then, over 3 million GPTs have been created, with over 200.000 of them made publicly available.
This is a set of notes on the Quinn Emanuel report on Cruise's handling of the 2023-10-02 accident where a Cruise autonomous vehicle (AV) hit a pedestrian, stopped, and then started moving again with the pedestrian stuck under the bottom of the AV, dragging the pedestrian 20 feet. After seeing some comments about this…
A historical analysis of what the earliest electrical and great applied R&D labs can teach Answer.AI, and potential pitfalls
A brand new era for the RWKV-v5 architecture and linear transformer's has arrived - with the strongest multi-lingual model in open source today
With today's update, we are excited to announce that we have integrated Mixtral 8x7B as the default LLM in Leo, our privacy-preserving AI browser assistant.
