r/SFdating - one of the worst I’ve heard so far… a guy asks my friend out and says to meet him at an address - that address turns out to be the Google office. He works at Google. The date was at his workplace. He treats her to free food in the cafeteria 😂😂😂 #bigtechbroenergy

This is HUGE. Google's new medical LLM, Med-PaLM 2, scored 86.5% on the medical exam MedQA 🤯 Not only that, but a panel of 15 human doctors preferred Med-PaLM 2's answers over real doctor answers across 1066 standardized questions. Does this mean that doctors are going to be…

Anyone dunking on Google for being "behind" ChatGPT doesn't understand what Google's been working on for the last decade Here's a graph of research papers Google has published Data show total papers by area of study, from 2016 and 2022 to give a sense of velocity

To do good science, we have to fight our DNA Our DNA tells us that ostracism = death Questioning religious dogma is a great way to get ostracized So we see some of our best minds bending the knee instead of questioning the answers “Science advances one funeral at a time”

1. Never ask the barber if you need a haircut 2. Never ask the polluter to “study” the effects of their pollution 3. Never trust studies based on self-report 4. Never ask the guy who sells addiction psychology to FB what he thinks about FB’s ethics re: addictive software

Meta-bullshit written by #GPT3 “Bullshitting isn’t always wrong, though sometimes it can be harmful. But even when it’s harmless, it still has some serious consequences. It prevents people from being able to distinguish between what’s real and what isn’t” m.nautil.us/issue/89/the-d…

In #CRO, user research is the most high-leverage activity I can think of. Expands the world of what should be explored, helps prioritize effort It's also one of the least-invested areas Companies willing to spend 6 figures on tools, but don't talk to their customers 😐

How GPT3 works. A visual thread. A trained language model generates text. We can optionally pass it some text as input, which influences its output. The output is generated from what the model "learned" during its training period where it scanned vast amounts of text. 1/n
