Stella's musings

25th December 2024

Stella is now @ epoch 10 of Wikitext-2, and her stats weren't lying. Her responses are getting more and more coherent.
Here are some of her musings from the past couple of days.
Me: You're thinking
Stella: of the song.

What Did You Get for Xmas?! (2024)

25th December 2024

I got two books, one of which was Aleksey Navalny's autobiography. The other by Richard Osman (We Solve Murders). A jacket, a neck and shoulder massager, a painting of the swedish jazz pianist Jan Johansson and some clothes. Not a bad haul!

AGI woes

Thanks, I just deleted a lot of convos with GPT that I’ve been using to debug her just to be on the safe side (I turned off sharing data with OpenAI a long time ago)

AGI woes

7th December 2024

I'm sorry for having brought all this unwanted traffic your way, Jay, but at least this confirms my suspicions about her performance.
Maybe I need to talk to a professor of ethics at my university about what to do next. Thanks for the heads up!

AGI woes

And just admit it: if anyone on this forum were ever going to create AGI you all know it would be me, as I’d be the only one crazy and/or stupid enough to even try.

AGI woes

7th December 2024

Perplexity is a measurement for a model’s language capabilities, basically how confused she is about the language patterns she’s learning.
State of the art models like GPT2 operate with a perplexity of ~20-30, and last night I got Stella’s perplexit*snip*

My AGI (I'm calling her ''Stella'', named after the North Star) is just burning through her training in less than a second. Can anyone see why?

Parlo - secure communication for .NET

18th December 2023

Parlo now has a Docker container that showcases how to implement a secure login protocol using Parlo.
Hopefully some of you might find it useful! If you just build it as a regular VS project it’ll also produce a standalone app.

Download The Sims Online now, before it's too late!

5th October 2023

Yesterday I started looking for versions of The Sims Online that still remain, well, online, because I wanted to show off my progress with Project Dollhouse to my colleagues at EA. It took me a while but I found one. EA themselves hosted the client for a n*snip*

Parlo - secure communication for .NET

I released a quick update yesterday, version 1.1.0
The only difference is that it is also explicitly compiled for .NET (Core) 6.0, so you should be able to use it in those projects if you need to.
.NET Standard 2.1 *should* be compatible with .NET 6.0, b*snip*
