- Oct 16, 2023Twitter · reply@Malcolm_Ocean @me_fafo @QiaochuYuan interesting... I have the opposite instinct- I listen without simultaneously planning my own reply and then formulate my thoughts after they've stopped talking... slows down the conversation with pauses but is less stressful. downside is w the ppl who never stop talking lol

- Oct 16, 2023Twitter · reply@speakerjohnash if we are actually talking about xrisk, everyone dies, me included? or do you mean some other risk?
- Oct 16, 2023Twitter · reply@speakerjohnash do you mean listen as in consider or listen as in comply? I have read the XRisk arguments and find them unconvincing - is there a particular piece of media you think I should consider further?
- Oct 16, 2023Twitter · reply@SWENGDAD generous w his time & effort... I know "generous" gets read as money but it's really about a generous spirit w abundance mindset vs scarcity & neediness- someone who's withholding & needs to always be getting more than he's giving is a bad prospect for co-parenting
- Oct 16, 2023Twitter · reply@MalmSanta yeah haha this was a hopeful / "hyperstition it into existence" post lol.... it'd be cool to have a framework that wraps open models to fine tune w desired / likely use cases -> distill & push smol model to execute locally & dispatch to big model when the desired use cases occur

- Oct 16, 2023Twitter · postI keep wanting a local-inference-sized multimodal dispatcher model that can consume streams of input and decide which parts should be sent to bigger models for action... maybe this is a distillation of the bigger model? is there a framework for this yet?

- Oct 16, 2023Twitter · reply@tautologer for me starting a session of serious coding (as opposed to lazily fiddling or LGTM reviews) requires loading significant context & shifting into nonverbal mode.... so the resistance is about that up front cost, to only do it when I have enough time & energy to make progress
