Good to know! The fine print:

As of September 9, 2025, hypertension notifications are currently under FDA review and expected to be cleared this month, with availability on Apple Watch Series 9 and later and Apple Watch Ultra 2 and later. The feature is not intended for use by people under 22 years old, those who have been previously diagnosed with hypertension, or pregnant persons.

> [hypertension notifications] is not intended for use by people [...] who have been previously diagnosed with hypertension

Sounds a bit ironic but I guess it's for legal reasons.

I think I suffer from this. My theory: There are muscles in the ear canal that try to modulate the sound and those muscles tense up and cause issues. I also have sore muscles that get a lot better from use of magnesium supplements and the tinnitus also get slightly better from this use. (It get a lot worse if I stop taking it)

how quickly does magnesium work, and how quickly does it get worse if you don't take it?

Actually I loved it. I dont think they have any grounds to sue. Its different and close enough. Also they wouldn’t sue a project on github, if they do they show their faces its worse for them. Also many forks will happen and they have to sue many. Worst case you change the name of the repo. Thats the power of open source ;)

Isn't Yuzu a good counter example?

Are there any prompts/tests about recalling multiple needles (spread out) at once?

For example, each needle could be a piece to a logic puzzle.

>is this substantively different from how search queries are handled when DuckDuckGo forwards them to Bing?

No, it is the exact same business model but applied to AI chat instead of search.

In other words, a lot of fuss about nothing.

Isn't equating active parameters with cost a little unfair since you still need full memory for all the inactive parameters?

tartrate · 2 years ago

Well, since it affects inference speed it means you can handle more in less time, needing less concurrency.

Sigh, clickbait. No, not a real rabbit.

Even starting at 30%, the MMLU graph is false. The four bars are wrong. Even their own 73,7% is not at the right height. The Mixtral 71.4% is below the 70% mark of the axis. This is really the kind of marketing trick that makes me avoid a provider / publisher. I can't build trust this way.

Seems fixed now

> "On HumanEval, DBRX Instruct even surpasses CodeLLaMA-70B Instruct, a model built explicitly for programming, despite the fact that DBRX Instruct is designed for general-purpose use (70.1% vs. 67.8% on HumanEval as reported by Meta in the CodeLLaMA blog)."

To be fair, they do compare to it in the main body of the blog. It's just probably misleading to compare to CodeLLaMA on non coding benchmarks.

tartrate · 2 years ago

Which non-coding benchmark?

Thanks! Why do they not focus on hosting other open models then? I suspect other models will soon catch up with their advantages in faster inference and better benchmark results. That said, maybe the advantage is aligned interests: they want customers to use their platforms, so they can keep their models open. In contrast, Mistral removed their commitment to open source as they found a potential path to profitability.

They do host other open models as well (pay-per-token).
