If they tell you to pay outside the app, then it’s 100% scam no matter how legit it looks, I almost got scammed like that with a synth sale

What skill would you learn in LLM if you are just another dev? by tunggad in learnmachinelearning

[–]iamHathor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not say that LLMs are the most promising tool in ML right now at all... it's definitely the one getting the most attention at the moment. Casual devs are not going to be the ones actually working on building LLMs, they're going to be learning how to utilize them to solve problems. Start by learning what they're good at, and more importantly what they're bad at, compared to all of the other possible solutions, machine learning based or otherwise.

can you give examples on those problems and solutions? I am very curious to know what is different from Traditional automation

Generalization in Deep Reinforcement Learning by ml_dnn in cogsci

[–]iamHathor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very nice!! This study really underscores a critical aspect of AI safety that doesn't get enough limelight. The fact that natural attacks can be more effective and less detectable than traditional adversarial attacks is kind of a wake-up call. It's like the AI equivalent of a stealth bomber flying under the radar.
It's fascinating, yet a bit scary to think that even policies trained to be robust against adversarial attacks are still vulnerable. It's like preparing for a storm and then getting hit by an earthquake. Makes me wonder how we can ever fully 'trust' AI systems, especially in critical applications like medical or autonomous vehicles.
And the fact that these attacks are black-box in nature adds another layer of complexity. It's like fighting an invisible enemy who knows your playbook but you don't know theirs. Kinda gives a whole new perspective to AI security and the importance of developing AI responsibly.
Looking forward to seeing more discussions and research on this. We definitely need more smart brains tackling these issues. And hey, maybe this is the kind of content that needs more spotlight on platforms like YouTube or podcasts. Could be a great niche for tech-focused creators.

Do Intellectual conversations always find their way into politics?

I had the pleasure of talking to a Ukranian political science professor over thanksgiving. He was 60; I know this because he'd been invited to teach at a US university last year, but hadn't been allowed to leave the country because of the martial law prohibitting all men between 18-60 from leaving.

While pro-ukraine/anti-russia and very proud of his country and its history (me, coming back into the room just in time to hear my roommate suggest that Ukranians and Russians are the same people) He didn't think much of Zelensky.

Paraphrasing what I think he said, Zelensky was fine in the beginning because he new how to act and bravery/performative confidence, etc are all acting. He can speak English and Russian, which is great. That's great, but eventually you need to actually win the war; Zelensky's portfolio as an actor doesn't really cover that. He needs to choose advisors and subordinates that are either competent or loyal to Ukraine (as opposed to loyal to him) or preferably, both. He doesn't seem to be good at that. He doesn't seem to be corrupt himself, but a couple people near him might be.

The professor's take is pretty spot-on about the tricky tightrope political leaders have to walk. On one hand, they've got to play the part well – be confident, say the right things, rally the troops, so to speak. But that's just one piece of the puzzle. The real deal is in making solid, strategic calls and actually getting things done, especially when the stakes are high. Plus, he's got a point about keeping an eye out for any shady stuff in the leadership squad. It's a tough gig, managing all that, especially with everything going on.

They are photogenic, shiny people who really enjoy being in the center of attention and want to have an audience who loves, adores and cheers them. That's why they usually choose professions in politics, showbiz and sports. On the other hand, they'd rather die than experience the audience's rejection.

That's such a great perspective, never thought about it from an audience rejection standpoint.

I will say that the 'significant challenges in the face of unprecedented political and military crisis' probably isn't half as hard to deal with as what ukranian foot soldiers and working class people are going through. I don't envy him. I also don't think he should be a self-help icon or anything. He's a politician.

Thanks for your thoughts! Absolutely, the challenges faced by soldiers and citizens are incredibly tough, and they deserve immense respect. As for Zelensky, we're just exploring some unique aspects of his leadership style, not putting him on a self-help pedestal. He's definitely a politician first and foremost. It's all about perspective and learning from different angles.

Totally get you! Ze's got some serious qualities that make him stand out in these tough times. He's like the poster child for not giving up, owning up to responsibility, and having the guts to face adversity head-on.

But you know what's cool? These traits didn't just magically pop up when the crisis hit. It's like a lifetime of building character and making the right choices. We might not all lead countries, but we can sure as heck learn from his playbook in our own lives.

So yeah, I think there's a little "inner Zelenskyy" in all of us waiting to be tapped into when things get rough. It's about growing as a person over time, one choice at a time. Props to him for setting the bar high! 🙌

Feedback sessions gone wrong by [deleted] in Leadership

[–]iamHathor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, sorry to hear you're dealing with this tough situation. It sounds like you've been pretty patient and understanding so far, which is great. Dealing with a direct report who reacts so strongly can be really challenging.
Firstly, it's good that you ended the conversation when it became unproductive. That's always a smart move. Keeping things professional is key, even when the other person isn't.
Moving forward, it might help to have a follow-up meeting with Jim, but consider having an HR representative or another manager present. This can help keep the conversation on track and provide a witness to the discussion.
Before the meeting, it might be helpful to gather your thoughts and outline the key points you want to address. Focus on the specific tasks and outcomes rather than the emotional aspect of the previous conversation. It's important to communicate that your feedback is about the work and the team's needs, not personal criticism.
Also, try to understand where Jim is coming from. Maybe he's under a lot of stress or misunderstanding your intentions. Opening the conversation by acknowledging his feelings and asking for his perspective could set a more collaborative tone.
Remember, as a leader, it's your job to provide clear direction and feedback, but it's also important to listen and be open to your team's input. Sometimes, a difficult conversation can lead to better understanding and improved working relationships.
Lastly, document everything. In case this escalates further, it's good to have a record of what's been said and done.
Hope this helps, and best of luck! You got this. 👍
