A group of researchers at Microsoft have been working on a new AI large language model that was developed specifically for spreadsheet programs like Excel, Google Sheets, and others. Because humans have trouble figuring out stuff like =XLOOKUP(TRUE,B5:B16<>"",B5:B16,,,-1)
OK, it's not an LLM for figuring that out, but that would be handy at times

Will LLMs keep improving if we throw more compute at them? OpenAI dealmaker thinks so. At least until they find something else to run after

The Formics are coming! (Sorry, just watched Ender's Game again -- the book is of course better, but it's always a pleasure to watch Harrison Ford.)

One of those was a special-effects extravaganza with in-your-face symbolism and a meh story. There is no other Avatar, just like there is no war in Ba Sing Se. It was better than the one that doesn't exist.

On the other hand, I find the serie now, pretty well done and worth seeing.
Still nothing as the original cartoon.

No doubt they are called Formics because they look like giant ants, and on Earth, some ants use formic acid as a defense.

In 2023, Google and Microsoft each consumed 24 TWh of electricity, surpassing the consumption of over 100 nations, including places like Iceland, Ghana, and Tunisia Maybe they can cancel a few more products and get higher on the list

so a companies that operates across multiple counties and contributes to those countries total energy consumption has a high energy consumption
what a surprise
