That guy just needs a snorkel now and he's all set! Here we go, the new Apple Scuba Pro! Just 20 payments of four-hundred US dollars!

They also don't show you that the bolts above the ears have to be screwed into the skull much further than you'd really reasonably want, to keep the weight well distributed as well.

I think they are going for something like a lighter cool goggles aesthetic than bulky dorky VR Headset. Which in fairness is probably the right move - influencers and all the cool kids that posts free PR incessantly on social media will pay extortionate prices if it's exclusive and looks cool regardless of usefulness.

For cloud services, you can pick the type of hardware you're hosted on to optimize for what you're trying to do - more CPU, more memory, faster disk, etc. Getting a cloud hosted VM with attached GPU capabilities is one of those classes but it's been a bit niche for a few years compared to everything else. But it's a cost effective way to basically rent GPU compute time if you need it. With LLMs, it's likely that cloud providers are going to massively increase their capacity for GPU VMs, which seems likely to be a short sighted investment. They could theoretically have entire data centers of racks with GPUs attached that just aren't being used.

Do you use ChatGPT in your academic writing and want to cite it? You're in luck! The people behind the APA Style Guide says you can do it like so:APA Style Example posted:When prompted with “Is the left brain right brain divide real or a metaphor?” the ChatGPT-generated text indicated that although the two brain hemispheres are somewhat specialized, “the notation that people can be characterized as ‘left-brained’ or ‘right-brained’ is considered to be an oversimplification and a popular myth” (OpenAI, 2023). lol and lmao I can't believe that the article isn't just "gently caress no why the gently caress would you want to cite ChatGPT as a reference."

They see the risk that the bubble will pop just as they're building up a new product and cause losses. But, besides exiting that market completely, they really don't have a good way to handle these dumb tech bubbles.

Twerk from Home posted:There's room for a lot of research in how people interact with ChatGPT as well as how it behaves and how it's vulnerable to injections and such. All jokes aside, there is no point in citing ChatGPT as a reference because the point of a reference is for readers to be able to verify the claims. ChatGPT and the like are all non-deterministic in their outputs, so depending on whether or not there's a solar flare going on someone who tries to verify the claims by invoking ChatGPT are going to get a totally different response. I'm sure there is room in academic literature to show interactions with ChatGPT, but not as a reference of information. I mean, gently caress, you could just basically write anything and simply claim that it came from ChatGPT. Nobody is going to be able to verify it anyway.

Not for getting ChatGPT to do your lit review for you I don't really get that impression from that page. It doesn't ever specifically mention researching ChatGPT itself, and there's no hint of talking about "why it might say that" or "how it might affect the people who use it". Instead, the page talks about using ChatGPT "to create text and to facilitate their research", which sounds more like using it for generating text in the paper. Moreover, it links to another APA article about how to use ChatGPT in the classroom and treat it "as an opportunity rather than a threat", describing it as a "useful—and as some psychologists argue, revolutionary—tool to prepare students for their future careers". In regards to the style guide page, though, I don't think it's quite so driven by blind optimism. The fact of the matter is that people are going to use ChatGPT, and it's probably better if they cite it so that readers know they used ChatGPT. If they say "don't use ChatGPT", people will just use ChatGPT anyway and lie about it. If they say "make sure to cite it properly when you use ChatGPT", maybe they won't lie about it.

Stupid, ridiculous, and clearly what Boris Galerkin thinks is being promoted. But the actual example provided is citing ChatGPT as a source for what ChatGPT itself says when prompted in a certain way, which is actually necessary if you're researching ChatGPT itself.:

If ChatGPT generates text randomly then what use is it to me, the person doing a peer review of the paper that's citing information out of ChatGPT? Or me, the person reading this article (that cites information out of ChatGPT) trying to get information to use in my own research? e: When I run my numerical models to gleam information, one of the cornerstones of this modeling is that the outcome is deterministic. That it doesn't depend on the time of day I run my model, or the weather conditions on the surface of the sun, or whether or not a bunch of birds are flying overhead and altering some quantum fields, or whether or not someone else is generating random data on the same computer I run my model, etc. The outcome should be deterministic, to a reasonable extent measured by some metric like rms error etc. Boris Galerkin fucked around with this message at 17:28 on Jun 11, 2023 |

The best thing to do is obviously to include all "conversation" records in the appendix, but even if you don't do that, the fact that other people can't access the source doesn't remove your obligation to cite it.

Civilized Fishbot posted:Look at the quoted example. A "normal" citation would be like: The example is written the way it is as a response to the limitations and issues in citing ChatGPT: it's not consistently reproducible. Even if you cite a given piece of text to ChatGPT, that doesn't mean anyone else can go check that result for themselves. ChatGPT output varies based on the input and context and isn't necessarily going to give the same output for a given input every time, which is a problem for citations. So the only way to know what the writer actually got from ChatGPT is for the writer to include the original text of the response from ChatGPT, either in the citation or as an appendix. For similar reasons, they also want people to provide the prompt where practical, so that readers have as much information as possible about what the writer got from ChatGPT and how they got it. That's why the APA requests that, whenever possible, writers using ChatGPT should provide the response and the prompt they used to get that response. It's definitely not limited to just research about ChatGPT, though. It also contains guidelines for using ChatGPT in essays, literature reviews, and other papers that are more like writing than direct research. And at the end, it reminds writers to be careful of hallucinations, warning them that ChatGPT tends to make up info and sources and therefore should not be considered a reliable source for information. There wouldn't be any need to include a warning like that if that page were just about research into LLMs themselves; the intent of that section is clearly to target people who might use ChatGPT as a search engine for finding and summarizing sources.
