@vik I don’t think it can keep a memory of the ongoing conversation that is longer than about 4000 tokens, so I think #ChatGPT does use some sort of embeddings or something to selectively remember only some stuff in the “distant” past in the conversation.

Something looks very familiar about this large #balloon being tested by a #Chinese company in #NZ in 2015.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GG-Cw1zECBU———“A Chinese company is testing the possibility of maintaining a helium balloon in a stable height more than 20 kilometers above ground, while remotely controlling its movements, according to experts at the test site in New Zealand's South Island on Saturday.

I made a movie showing #CycloneGabrielle moving down over #NZ for the three days Sunday to Tuesday 12-14 February 2023. Thanks to #MetService for operating their #weather #radar network that makes this possible.

@simon I was also able to quantise and run the #LLaMA 30B model using a very similar procedure (4 files needed). Takes around 20 GB RAM when running and 350 ms per token on my 32GB M1 Pro MacBook Pro.

@simon That new model just worked for me on an API call (I'm a GPT Plus subscriber). 😊 "created": 1699306678, "id": "chatcmpl-xxx", "model": "gpt-4-1106-preview", "object": "chat.completion", "system_fingerprint": "fxxx", "usage": { "completion_tokens": 291, "prompt_tokens": 3373, "total_tokens": 3664
