Apple's AI Leap: Bridging the Gap in On-Device Intelligence - Gradient Flow

Apple Tackles Memory and Computational Demands of Large Language Models. In a recent paper, Apple addresses the substantial computational and memory demands of large language models (LLMs), which present difficulties when attempting to operate them on devices with limited DRAM. These issues are pivotal due to: The prohibitive memory requirements for LLMs that surpass theContinue reading "Apple’s AI Leap: Bridging the Gap in On-Device Intelligence"

Hey folks, I've seen a lot of talk going around about adblockers lately. I worked in the advertising technology and security industry for five years and the one core piece of advice I have is:

Holy fuck never give an advertiser your data. You cannot believe how bad it is. Don't. I run three layers of ad block protection and I'd run more if it was feasible. If you want to support creators give them money.

@tylermumford Architecture specs, unit tests, design mockups are not working software. They may be valuable in creating working software, but only working software is the product.

Personally, I’ve come to add “tested hypotheses” to the things that count as progress. Software that “works” but turns out to be the wrong approach is an invalidated hypothesis.
