Don't know about GCP, but our AE on AWS was also continuously rotating, and as best I can tell, their job was to figure out what we are planning to build, and to ensure that we should always use <INSERT AWS SERVICE DU JOUR> for that, rather than a competitor product or build it ourselves.
Me too. It's great that my employer pays for it and there's basically no budget, because this configuration is 10x more expensive than the regular default Sonnet.
The example itself that Simon puts up is questionable. I might be wrong about this, but I thought I read elsewhere that the “buy, scan, destroy” method was explicitly not the problem, and instead the issue was that anthropic downloaded libgen, and the settlement was for libgen.
motte, meet bailey. Gary Marcus' shtick the entire time has been "LLMs are the wrong approach", and now the claim is "actually, the entire time I've been claiming something much weaker: LLMs that call out to code interpreters are sufficient for neurosymbolic AI"/
A long long time ago, at ClojureConj 2014, I asked Rich Hickey whether a cpp-based clojure was possible, and his answer was "well, the primary impediment there is a lack of a garbage collector". There were a lot of conversations going on at the same time, so I didn't get an opportunity to "delve" into it, but:
1. does that objection make sense? 2. How does jank approach that hurdle.
Visibility is essential, and visibility is owned by the devops team. ALl the resources have to be tagged with the team that owns those resources, and you should have a meeting once a month or so with that team where you bring to them a report of "here are all the resources we have assigned to you, do you agree?" and if they agree, then great, they are responsible for it, and if they don't agree, then now you have to have a conversation where you bring in the PMs and the EMs, and the head of finance if you need to.
And it's essential that you check in regularly, rather than just give them a dashboard and say "ok, you go look here and tell me if anything is amiss", because they will never look.
Me too (Oracle Park), and I also relate to the not feeling old for a couple of hours - except the few times when I saw parents bring their kids to this show, and the kids were definitely not older than like, nine or ten, and were (!) mouthing the words to songs from Dookie.
