You can use the "do we really need" argument for any one of thousands of inventions that improve the efficiency of a task. All other things being equal, efficiency has value. If your point is to wonder if efficiency can be improved by AR for things like this, definitely.

I don't understand this take. Over time, economies transform, and areas that were once economically viable may become unviable. Pouring money into an unviable area to try to stop the inevitable isn't necessarily the right thing to do.

Fascinating! This would actually be another reason perhaps for them not to be too transparent about their architecture, if it gives off the "we're a bit low on ideas" vibe.

It's less hard for me to believe that they could learn, accidentally, that swimming quickly under an ice sheet causes it to crack, but the fact that they could obviously plan, communicate, and coordinate with each other well enough pull it off is... 🤯

Also: We've wondered what a Mars landing will look like, and whether it would be SpaceX, or SpaceX+NASA. With this news it's looking like NASA would quite likely work with SpaceX to land on Mars using Starship.

It did shift for me the likelihood that we'll see something equivalent to AI passing a Turing test in a meaningful way in the next 10 years. That might be an overreaction, but it's starting to feel like the writing is on the wall.

When I read the line "An interesting corollary is that GPT-3 often finds it easier to write code to solve a programming problem, than to solve the problem on one example input" my brain said "oh crap, I wonder if that's what the human brain does, and has an executor".

There's a certain irony that ML has become quite "hot" in the last decade, and yet I feel like ML is sort of the "long game", requiring an attention that spans decades. A danger of the hype is that it makes it look like a gold rush, switching our minds out of long-game mode.

Additionally:
- Might be part of a search algorithm for goodness: Once you find sufficient starting conditions for a universe, let it play out, and select the parts that are deemed good.
- For example, individual humans might be those good things being discovered / selected.

I just realized that the RCS thruster on the falling side probably thrust its little heart out as the stage tipped over, possibly keeping velocity of impact low enough to keep it in one piece.

Aside from experimenting with GPT-3 to see what it can and cannot do, the lasting thing that I enjoy the most is asking it questions. I find its answers thought provoking, almost wise.

One of the things I like most about Elon is that he highly values the truth. As he says, don't read between his lines. Such a big asset and differentiator in a world of spin. Second, I admire his openness about his emotional pain. Hard not to like the guy.

Dropping prices may make investors wince, but IMO that's ultimately what we want as citizens of earth: For EV prices to come down, and with it, significantly more people being able to afford them, which keeps the Wright's Law motor spinning.

Given that

obviously has a very detailed model of language and grammar, I was curious to see if it could both correct grammatical errors and explain the corrections. The answer is "yes", although it took more retries than I thought it would for explanations:

Well, what it means precisely to "understand" is a bit uncertain. People might be using the same word in different ways. I agree that GPT-3 doesn't measure up anywhere close to human understanding, but I do think a Venn diagram with "understanding" and GPT-3 should show overlap.

I've long imagined that something like this happens when we try to connect two things in the brain, although perhaps more precisely like Dijkstra's algorithm -- sending out two frontiers until they meet, triggering a little lightning strike.

One thing I heard for the first time today: Most Starships won't return to earth, they will be used for their materials on Mars. That really changes the math on net cost per trip to Mars, because each trip doesn't allow you to re-use the ship.

Great video! I feel like 12.5.x is significant for two reasons:
1. Seems to increase confidence significantly that we're on the path to true FSD, robotaxi.
2. But also, I think FSD just passed the threshold to something that millions of people will want to pay money for.

Repeatedly do the following:
(1) Take an important area of life: Diet, exercise, relationships, mental health, work, etc.
(2) Consider a simple pattern that you could experiment with to improve.
(3) Try it for three weeks, and evaluate.

This is the first GPT-3 claim that I've read that triggers feelings of "that's too good to be true". If this is for real, it comes off as sort of unbelievable. Given that prompts are restricted to being quite short, how were you able to feed it all of the essays?

I strongly agree. The sentiment that GPT-3 was a terrible misuse of natural resources was one of the weakest points made against it, IMO. Probably even more so if that point is made against AlphaFold.

This is super cool, but if I'm understanding correctly, this is BLITZ, where there isn't much time at all to think, so you need to use instincts. Thus it makes sense that search isn't as important.

Although GPT-3 is perhaps best characterized as an association engine (ish), the emergence of its few-shot adaptation ability was a huge surprise for me and makes me curious whether there will be any more surprises as it is scaled up further.
