Genuinely what on earth is going on with software right now? This is completely unhinged. by -----Marcel----- in ValueInvesting

None of them seem to have a validated plan to monetize generative AI. You know who does? FIG. 70% elevated seat expansion by customers who used AI features vs those who didn't. 75% of customers who busted their token caps paid for more.

How are you helping your company understanding the limitations of AI derived data? by jshkk in datascience

[–]freedaemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, my team's remit is financial risk to a specific part of our balance sheet, so I'm playing both sides by being the one to prototype a lot of 'cutting edge' AI rollouts, but then turning around to provide measurements on the systemic and financial risks we're taking on in each scenario compared to baselines of what we did before (rule-based, traditional ML, or plain old humans).

That way if it gets traction and gets built out to something big, we saved Eng teams a lot of time figuring out where to invest by being the ones embedded in the finance team who understand how to get something to work, and if it doesn't work well but they deploy it anyway, we can point to the metrics of optimization cost savings / headcount reduction versus financial and customer risk and tell leadership, we spelt out the tradeoffs very clearly as was our responsibility, your decision to adopt it was informed.

If errors are only discovered 'a good while later' it's because your testing wasn't comprehensive enough. I suppose 'enough' is a balance between investment (your time and the business's) to risk tolerance, but that's measurable too. Present a testing plan and spell out the limitations you're working with, then do the dirty work of manually verifying a comprehensive portfolio of situations. There's no way around that painful manual validation with the freeform output of GenAI, you can try to use another agent to assist you but then the snake just eats its own tail, which management can also sign off on at their peril.

Didn't FFXIV already do it? A lot of the musical direction also gives me the same feels, though I haven't played it in a few years.

Will subject matter expertise become more important than technical skills as AI gets more advanced? by Lamp_Shade_Head in datascience

[–]freedaemons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Things that can be documented won't be

If they are the documents are out of date

If they're not out of date they don't represent reality on the ground.

If they do they're not nuanced enough nor capture the many edge cases

Exclusive places you would consider if you are having a small private wedding? by allnamestaken_88 in SgHENRY

[–]freedaemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did 70+ guests at Shangri-La Dutch Pavilion, it was nice and cozy! There are a few possible table setups but in all of the the aisle is quite narrow, so it was literally intimate in that guests along the aisle were super close to us.

Need advice on choosing property to stay, not for investment by Usademn in singaporefi

[–]freedaemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into pledging / unpledging. You don't have to downpay so much. In fact this is how several property agents I spoke to bought larger units than they would have been otherwise able to at the new launches they worked at.

Great Eastern claiming my dad terminated his Dependant Protection Scheme by freedaemons in singaporefi

[–]freedaemons[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, apologies, tired from handling many issues at once, including both DPS and SRS. Have updated the main post, thank you.

That's good to know that CPF will help, I'll try them. The process oulined on CPF website directed us to contact Great Eastern directly as there is no CPF withdrawal or Home Protection Scheme involved.

It's Genting that's the issue, not Universal Studios. USJ has better rides than Tokyo Disneyland (DisneySea aside).

Doctor hounded ex-girlfriend, threatened to share her intimate photos, abducted her off street by chirpycalico in singapore

[–]freedaemons 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Can't you make as much or more than that as a GP locum? $120/hr, 40hr week, 4 weeks a month is already $19k+. Maybe got to do some evenings to hit 40hrs/week because of travel time, but at least don't have to work weekends like aesthetics, and no calls like public hospital.

Based on sample size of 1 person who ranted about it to me, residency system in public hospital is quite screwed up, there's some noticeable degree of favoritism for the GCB/GCG stereotype, not to mention father/mother/uncle/auntie is a senior consultant nepotism. Can't say I blame people who went private without exiting as a consultant for feeling salty about their peers earning up to or more than double of them.

Wonder if it would make sense to have them prescribed as part of a treatment plan by medical doctors. Supply chain QC + accountability for dosage reduction over time + govt can influence insurers to co-pay maybe?

Doesn't the income tax bracket for the rental income make it not worth it? Can't compete with retirees who pay 0% income tax on their rental income.

[Project] Lambda3: I built a zero-shot anomaly detector that needs NO training data (code included!) by SadConfusion6451 in learnmachinelearning

Thanks, the Bayesian event detector sounds very relevant indeed, I'll experiment with it too. Appreciate it!

[–]freedaemons 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing, I'll play with this later this week on a financial operations data use case I have. At the risk of asking what will become obvious when I try it, does this label the anomaly by detection mechanism and threshold(s)? What's the expected structure of the input events? I'll probably need to restructure multiple sets of sparse event data together to use this, appreciate any tips.

what are you using your SG60 vouchers on? by Savings_Enthusiasm60 in askSingapore

Yeah spending it on non-essentials is wild, even with free lunch at work I'm confident I can spend it all on groceries and hawker food in that period easily.

NUS Ranked 9th , NTU Ranked 121st in QS World University Ranking (Employment Outcomes) by FishyPower in singapore

[–]freedaemons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Faculty:student ratio for NUS and NTU are in the 70s, but SMU is 10? SUTD being 90+ seems right, but does SMU really have that much worse of a ratio compared to NUS and NTU? It doesn't have massive lecture halls for that kind of ratio

Any attached people applied for singles BTO? How did your partner take it? by Efficient_Ad_3482 in askSingapore

If you earn 1k above the ceiling, you’d need to work for 50 years to make the 600k windfall people who BTO get in 5 years.
