@LightningAI any chance I can get priority verification for Lightning Studios?

Let's compare DeepSeek-R1 and OpenAI-o1 using RAG:

I take back EVERYTHING I said about other video models catching up to SORA even remotely. Leaked video of SORA v2, showing 1 minute generations of txt2vid, img2vid, vid2vid, txt+vid2vid. x.com/RuudNL/status/… Multiple scenes and just incredible character consistency. p.s if this is coming as part of the $200/mo pro tier, OpenAI is about to see a LOT of new subs

Elon is still lying. Just ask Grok.😂🤣😂 x.com/i/grok/share/9…

A Life in Portraits: Ye Jinglu, a Chinese who took a selfie every year from 1907 to 1968, for 62 years, compiled a chronicle of his personal odyssey from the Qing Empire through the Republican Period and extending well into the People's Republic of China. 🧵 1/63

@SoumayaKeynes You should really read his paper before discussing. His definition of "hard" vs "easy" work is naive and pre-LLM. The paper hardly references any modern AI research (>2021). And everything is hidden behind maths that obscure bad data deriving bad results.

Name a city you would rate as a 10/10

@oledoteth You have listed a few, but there were many more. The Wikipedia article is a good summary that the book could have used. A quick set of interactions with Claude or ChatGPT could probably generate more questions to test all the biases listed.

@oledoteth I don't recall Kahneman explicitly listing these questions. He may have listed them elsewhere or in interviews. Thinking Fast and Slow was an incredible book, but also very long. I was waiting at the end for some sort of guide to navigate the many human biases that we have.

I used to think I was rational. Then I read Daniel Kahneman's Nobel Prize-winning work on human decision-making. He routinely asks 8 questions to expose cognitive traps you fall into daily. Test yourself with these questions (it's the ultimate BS detector for your brain):

@joncoopertweets Wasn't this moment the motivation to run from president? 4+ years of hell because of a few jokes.

I know it’s weird, but the truth is that after all these years, Trump is STILL pissed about these humiliating jokes at his expense. #WeirdTrump

@DavidSacks @hkanji You made a bad investment. Write it off.

Just this morning, Biden’s campaign chair said he wasn’t leaving the race. Then Biden suddenly posts a resignation letter with no address to the country. Wreaks of a coup.

VP PICK VOTE Vote for one, add in the comments.

@vkhosla Please tell that to Marc and Ben!

Hard for me to support someone with no values, lies, cheats, rapes, demeans women, hates immigrants like me. He may cut my taxes or reduce some regulation but that is no reason to accept depravity in his personal values. Do you want President who will set back climate by a decade in his first year? Do you want his example for your kids as values?

The Power of Prompt Engineering Prompt engineering has evolved considerably over the last year. It's become a legit profession, with several real engineers specializing in the area and others writing research papers! This is a good survey paper that outlines all the different types of prompt engineering (link in alt) Prompting Strategies: Various prompting strategies are discussed, including but not limited to: Chain of Thought (CoT) Chain of Cause (CoC) Program-Aided Language models (PAL) Tree of Thoughts (ToT) Least-to-Most Self-Consistency Analogical Reasoning It's incredible how much you can do with an LLM if you understand these prompting strategies and apply them appropriately based on the suitable dataset and use-cases

Crowdstrike Analysis: It was a NULL pointer from the memory unsafe C++ language. Since I am a professional C++ programmer, let me decode this stack trace dump for you.

@Noahpinion He has just created a lot of math to manipulate a lot of poor assumptions and data. Not a great tool to estimate economic growth or destruction from AI.

@Noahpinion Honestly, the last paragraph of his paper demonstrates how little he knows or understands the technology. Most of the paper references pre-LLM papers with a lot of hand waving on generative AI.

Daron Acemoglu wrote a paper predicting that AI will raise inequality without increasing economic growth much. But to get that conclusion, he had to mangle his own model. noahpinion.blog/p/at-least-fiv…

Whoever asks for slides in advance has never given a big presentation themselves or at least not a good one. If you are still working on it, it’s because you really want it to be good. Control freakery is not compatible with creativity.
