Reply to comment by deezynr in Job listing platform Indeed lays off 2,200 employees by marketrent

Indeed is more than just the indeed website, they own other companies such as simply hired, glass door and a bunch of other stuff. There’s lots of sales people, hr people on top of engineering. They are also more than just a job board they help people do resume reviews as well as do the actual interviewing for companies as well.

It all adds up when you realize they need a website that runs world wide 24/7 serving millions of people a day.

That site used to be so much better. Now they won’t even link you to the job listing on the employer’s website unless you are logged in with with an Indeed account. So I simply scout there, then go directly to the company’s website if I want to apply to something. What an idiotic strategy. Also filters reset every single flippin time you change something.

Transformers, the T in GPT was invented at Google during Google Brain. They made possible this round of progress.

> Transformers were introduced in 2017 by a team at Google Brain[1] and are increasingly the model of choice for NLP problems,[3] replacing RNN models such as long short-term memory (LSTM). The additional training parallelization allows training on larger datasets. This led to the development of pretrained systems such as BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) and GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer), which were trained with large language datasets, such as the Wikipedia Corpus and Common Crawl, and can be fine-tuned for specific tasks.

Bard will most likely win long term, though I wish it was just called Google Brain. Bard is a horrible name.

On the flipside AI's blackbox and swappable datasets that take massive wealth to build, will be used for misinformation more than social media has.

Even the OpenAI CEO Sam Altman admits this.

> But a consistent issue with AI language models like ChatGPT, according to Altman, is misinformation: The program can give users factually inaccurate information.

I'm going to call this the Neil Degrasse Tyson problem because it can be confident about it's core knowledge, like validated articles, but it's also confidently providing incorrect information outside of that bubble and users don't know any better. Let's wait for advertisers to muddy that even more. Accurate information is going to become so hard to come by that I think the internet will eat itself.
