being surprised that llms that are overly post-trained using rl environments specifically chosen for them to do well in evals and benchmarks struggle with general-purpose use cases is like being surprised that people with phds often display a lack of the most basic understanding in domains […]

every time i sit in a line of 100 cars waiting to drop my kid off at his california elementary school with 1000 kids that's in a residential area with a single narrow access road, i think to myself, "gee, i wonder if there's a better way to do this"

this link got 272 clicks which is more clickthroughs than i've seen typically for any post here on threads. i mean obviously there's a bit of a hank green effect, but if i had posted this comment right away or (god forbid) included the link in the post, the engagement would've absolutely tanked

fun fact: if just 20% more of the world became vegetarian, especially in regions of the world with heavy meat consumption, the savings in water would be something like a quadrillion liters. that's enough water to provide a year's worth of all household water needs for every person on earth

fun fact: if just 10% more of the world became vegetarian, especially in regions of the world with heavy meat consumption, the savings in water would be something like 500 trillion liters. that's enough water to provide a year's worth of all household water needs for half of earth's population

the whole ai data center footprint discussion is also another argument for local ai. as hardware capabilities and ai architectures improve, i theorize that at least some of the workload that is sent to data centers could be run entirely on-device

watching the hank green video and contemplating on it for a bit, i think some beneficiary regulatory changes for ai data centers could be:
- enforce closed system cooling with non-potable water
- prioritize data center locations with abundant and nearby access to water
- fund r&d for improved […]
