What would actually be interesting is if you told us what those mistakes were, instead of just vagueposting.

About 75% afaik.

CSS is neither of these.

It's ironic how the blandest, most predictable opinion piece is about how AI produces medicore content.

Totally agree. Insipid. No real insights, nuances or ideas.

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

I'm probably from a similar culture and friendship here means a very close personal relationship similar to, or in some cases even stronger than, familial relationships. I feel that the original post's concept of friendship is very shallow compared to that. Friendship in my culture transcends such categorization.

You should both tell us what it is so that others may give a different opinion

What does commenting 3 asterisks mean? I’ve been noticing this more and more recently

I didn't see the original three asterisks, so I'm not sure. In general writing, three asterisks is used as a visual break between two sections in a document.

I assume the other commenter is referring to using "(((@name)))" on Twitter, and similar patterns, which is some social media thing I don't understand. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_parentheses.

It’s an alt-right dog whistle.

What does it refer to? Couldn't find anything on Google.

What I don’t understand is why is an API needed to create embeddings. Isn’t this something that could be done locally?

You would need to have a local copy of the GPT model, which are not exactly OpenAI's plans.

For embeddings, you can use smaller transformers/llms or sentence2vec and often get good enough results.

You don't need very large models to generate usable embeddings.

You are correct, I assumed parent was referring to specific embeddings generated by OpenAI LLMs.

It’s cheaper to use OpenAI. If you have your own compute, sentence-transformers is just as good for most use cases.

Yes. The best public embedding model is decent, but I expect it’s objectively worse than the best model from OpenAI.

Sure, but I don't know of any models you can get local access to that work nearly as well.

I can confirm that programming.dev is a very nice instance.

I hope that the threadiverse will consolidate into a bunch of themed instances instead of the current state of having 200 different Reddit clones.

This sounds almost psychopathic or maybe it is just ragebait trolling.
