If user data would become such a key ingredient (which it might, i actually remember noam shazeer talking about the importance of user data), i think chinese labs can still get it from china, as keep in mind it ahs a billion people behind the great firewall banned from using us llms. And btw broadly for any gap like this, you really gotta consider that if its becoming a bottleneck, chinese labs will find a way to buy it from one of the labs unless theres strict regulation at the government level

Thanks for sharing.

Is lack of inference chips due to the trading blocks by trump administration? What if Trump agrees to sell chips to china, would they collapse then? That's not a very strong position to be at

I don't think they explain it in the paper, do they? They just mention the result it seems. I am really curious to know too. Maybe they imply it's the result of their Mixture Of Experts architecture? Or maybe they just don't wanna say, idk

Success rate of a determined, reasonably smart sole entrepreneur?

Johnyjohnson123 — Thu, 26 Nov 2020 16:46:10 +0000

What would be the success rate of an individual, who lets say is smart but not a genius (maybe top 5% in SAT score, for example) that has a reasonable idea he came up with (that probably would not work out the way it is, but he doesn't know it yet) and has a successful entrepreneur advising him (perhaps a meeting once a month or so), and this individual would just not give up no matter what for, say, 5 years? As in, when he'll fail, he'll just try something else following his creativity and independent thinking, working hard and trying to move as fast as he can (although maintaining normal life to an extent, maybe weekly soccer and socializing a bit with friends and partner).

What are his chances of being a millionaire by the end of 5 year period? 50%? 90%? 20%? What do you think?

I'm not sure what's allowed. Can use current seconds in someone's watch, for example? Or maybe ask some random person to say a random word, and then use the position of the first letter of that word in the alphabet? This sounds like a really fun problem but I'm certain about the rules.
