TL;DR
We are thrilled to announce the release of the FASTEST Voice LLM to date! Experience real-time speech streaming from text in 300ms or less. Dive in and test it using our Playground, available SDKs, or these Replit demos for both Nodejs and Python and a chatGPT integration.

no reason to build any kind of software product these days that doesn't have a significant UX/domain knowledge component
Discord - A New Way to Chat with Friends & Communities
- Bob Muglia has the best definition. Others simply miss essential parts. The MDS isn’t just about open source or dbt; it is about SaaS, Cloud, Snowflake, and more. It is the wrapper around the progress in analytics over the last years.
- You should try to go for a 100% SaaS MDS . But try not to build up too many dependencies (yes, that’s possible;
Sven Balnojan • Breaking Down the Modern Data Stack: Practical Insights for Leveraging Analytics Progress
We expect AI technology to advance over time for two reasons. First, algorithmic progress - people learn how to make AIs in cleverer ways. Second, hardware progress - Moore’s Law produces faster, cheaper computers, so for a given budget, we can train/run the AI on more powerful hardware. A pause might slow algorithmic progress very slightly, with... See more
Scott Alexander • Pause For Thought: The AI Pause Debate
I agree. OpenAI and Meta are waiting for the delivery of the new Nvidia Chips to start training the next version of GPT and LLaMa respectively. A pause in development would not do any good.
A suggested benefit for a pause would be to focus research on alignment. I think we would have to create a regulatory mandate for alignment for it to be effective.
The language is always only as good as its community. Let’s look at some of the existing open-source tools and frameworks built in and around Rust:
- DataFusion based on Apache Arrow: Apache Arrow DataFusion SQL Query Engine similar to Spark
- Polars: It’s a faster Pandas. Probably going to compete with DuckDB (?)
- Delta Lake Rust: A native Rust library

Optimizing Further
Creating so many indices and aggregating so many tables is sub-optimal. To optimize this, we employ materialized views, which create a separate disk-based entity and hence support indexing. The only downside is that we have to keep it updated.

Data Processing and Data
An LLM’s abilities are amplified when combined using emerging agent frameworks like BabyAGI, AutoGPT and ChatArena. These frameworks break down workflows into a series of discrete roles each handled by AI agents, which are given a defined objective and work together to automate a complex task.

Chris Rainville • LLM agents: the next platform shift in B2B software
Could you have GPT-4 ask questions to the user rather than force the user to do prompt engineering? An experiment says this gave superior results. My read is that they tested this on easy cases where we already knew it would work, so we did not learn much.
