  • I’ll offer a different perspective. I’m actually really good at math, and I hated it in school because I didn’t want to do dozens of homework problems because I already knew how to do it and it was pointless work.

    And I didn’t, which led to me having to take my tests sitting next to the teacher because she wouldn’t believe I could make > 90% on the tests without doing any practice problems.













  • You can theoretically have an ethical LLM. You can train one from the ground up on non-copyrighted materials using renewable energy.

    But I think what a lot of people are forgetting is that it’s not uncommon for technology to start off super inefficient. A computer used to take up an entire floor of an office building, and a hard drive with a few KB of storage used to be the size of a fridge.

    Now you can have a system orders of magnitude more powerful that’s the size of a postage stamp and consumes less than 1W of power.
