@kahlesjf

I look forward to a future in which the audio quality of the remote guests are as good as that of the on-site host.

Skip the first 11:08...

@ShrekMeBe

I gave your MIT Tech Review site a go, read 2 articles and BAM! the silver screen of payment...either monthly or yearly but it had blocked all interactivity. That broke the spell

@aliettienne2907

16:39 I agree to a small language model that covers a fixed amount of knowledge (data) and uses a controllable parameter that doesn't occupy a large storage. SML can be equivalent to an expert in a single profession who is only knowledgeable in his field, and can't help you in other fields if you ask it. This model should mitigate hallucinations in the Ai operation while massively improving efficiency and proficiency. At the moment we don't need a language model that knows everything but one that is highly proficient in a needed professional field. Until the solution is discovered to correct the large language model deficiencies. If you want an agricultural scientist, then you can train the small language model (SML) on all the data on Agriculture, it shouldn't be trained on any other data, to avoid confusion or hallucinations. At the end you have a fully trained expert in the field of agriculture or whatever field of knowledge that is desired.

@findmeinthecarpet

Half this video is the setup 😅

@mojitostinson

If we were smart the top 10 would be about restoring nature and depolluting the planet

@WolfsFriend42

Video actually starts at 11:00.

@ChrisOgunlowo

Fascinating.

@michaelmccarthy5698

Quite a breakthrough in Technology the environment remains a priority

@allenwiertzema9796

Notice the word "could" used in nearly all first sentences. I would not bet on the accuracy except MIT staff sniffing cow farts.

@Janak-p1t

Social incidents changer....as MIT person through incident equations.

@Lewis502

The list starts at about 10:00 in. Great content, but next time condense the first 10 mins to 2. It felt too sales-y & the MIT Brand Carrie’s itself in terms of cred.

@renimon100

I believe the safety driver must be there, someone to be legally accountable, but also to provide the warm, human touch😂
less unemployment as well.

@rareword

That's what is called progress. We will no longer need slave owners to manipulate us, we will do it ourselves. George Orwell, wherever you are, pray for us.

Unfortunately I couldn’t stop seeing the purple bell end behind the speaker when he partially obscured the animal graphic……..
