-- Quelles sont les différences entre #sunnites et #chiites ?
https://www.lemonde.fr/les-decodeurs/article/2014/06/20/au-fait-quelle-difference-entre-sunnites-et-chiites_4442319_4355770.html

Une majorité de musulmans soutiennent Abou Bakr ( #sunnite), qui devient le premier calife. Depuis, les sunnites ont toujours été majoritaires. Ils représentent aujourd’hui environ 85 % des musulmans du monde. Les seuls pays à majorité #chiite sont l’Iran, l’Irak, l’Azerbaïdjan et Bahreïn, mais d’importantes minorités existent au Pakistan, en Inde, au Yémen, en Afghanistan, en Arabie saoudite et au Liban.

O cosmic Birther of all radiance and vibration,
soften the ground of our being and carve out a space within us where your Presence can abide.
Fill us with your creativity so that we may be empowered to bear the fruit of your mission.
Let each of our actions bear fruit in accordance with our desire.
Endow us with the wisdom to produce and share what each being needs to grow and flourish.
Untie the tangled threads of destiny that bind us, as we release others from the entanglement of past mistakes.
Do not let us be seduced by that which would divert us from our true purpose, but illuminate the opportunities of the present moment.
For you are the ground and the fruitful vision, the birth, power, and fulfillment, as all is gathered and made whole once again.
And So It Is!

[...] Even trees understand me! Good heavens, I lie under them too, don’t I? I’m just like a pile of leaves.
However, I have never clogged myself with the praises of pastoral life, nor with nostalgia for an innocent past of perverted acts in pastures. No. One need never leave the confines of New York to get all the greenery one wishes—I can’t even enjoy a blade of grass unless I know there’s a subway handy, or a record store or some other sign that people do not altogether regret life. [...]

Frank O'Hara, "Meditations in an Emergency"

[...] Persino gli alberi mi capiscono! Santo cielo, mi sdraio sotto di loro, no? Sono proprio come un mucchio di foglie.
Comunque, non mi sono mai impantanato negli elogi della vita pastorale, tantomeno nella nostalgia di un innocente tempo andato fatto di atti perversi nei pascoli. No. Uno non ha bisogno di uscire dai confini di New York per avere tutto il verde che desidera - Non riesco a godermi neanche un filo d’erba se non so che c’è una metropolitana a portata di mano, o un negozio di dischi o qualche altro segno che la gente non rimpiange del tutto la vita.

Petals dropped. Now you can use large models on a single gpu it says.
Reminds me of the “more expensive setup is better” argument that makes people buy new graphics cards and CPUs.

But what we need to define is application, not numbers.

Just like “With iPod, Apple has invented a whole new category of digital music player that lets you put your entire music collection in your pocket and listen to it wherever you go” and not “we invented a X GB mp3 player with Y KB cache”.

Application focus, not specs focus.

My goal is to have a model that gives accurate answers to questions about a document and that has the “decency” to admit that the answer cannot be found in those documents.

There are several options out there with local llms, yet none of them can be configured.

If a reply is bad, all you can do is choose another model. People hope that bigger was better, so they try to stuff huge and even bigger(petals) models into their computer, but what do those models really do?

They contain VAST corpuses on all kinds of topics. I assume, you won’t need 99% of those billions of parameters in your entire lifetime.

THIS is where you need to start: limit models by application. If you only search in English, don’t get a model that also contains Urdu.

If you only talk about computer science, don’t get that model that contains psychology.

Now the problem is that there are no models available that are specific - and good at what they do there.

To summarize, we need models that are specializable, by defining requirements and creating a new model based on that, which is much faster, smaller and gives you the right results.

EDIT: Another issue is what if the answers don’t satisfy you, would a human give better answers? Is it the model, what is it? You only have a few parameters like temperature and that’s it. Besides, a huge issue is model entitlement, the dreaded “This is not morally okay, and I will not”…Shut up, you are living on MY computer, I tell you what you do and don’t do.

Yet I feel like running against windmills, nobody debates that anywhere and people just report about the great, now 10 times more parameter model as if that saved humanity. #AI #MachineLearning #Models #ApplicationFocus #SpecsFocus #ComputerScience #English #Urdu #SpecializableModels #Accuracy #DocumentAnalysis #GPU #Hardware #Technology
