Kodik_AI (Kodik) @ Habr 1 place · today 07:35 EDT

Одна из сложностей с LLM: как понять, какая модель способнее? Их создатели наперебой кричат «мы совершили революцию», но как пробиться сквозь хайп и измерить, кто чего реально добился?Казалось бы, для этого есть много популярных бенчмарков. И о преимуществах моделей зачастую рассуждают со ссылками на них: «Смотрите, эта на 5% лучше». Однако с такими бенчмарками связан целый ряд проблем, и им нельзя доверять безоговорочно.А нам в Kodik важно разбираться, потому что... Read more ›

Принципиальная детерминированность нейросетей и безопасность

Одним из ключевых требований к информационной системе является воспроизводимость результатов. Однако многие специалисты сталкиваются с трудностями, когда попытка повторить эксперименты приводит к отличающимся показателям. Такая ситуация известна как недетерминированность: модель выдаёт различные результаты при одинаковых входных данных и конфигурации.Вместе с тем, несмотря на распространённое заблуждение, источником проблемы чаще всего становятся не свойства самой нейросети, а упущения на этапах проектирова Read more ›

Сразу сделаю оговорку — «Полароидом для бедняков» я эту штуку называю не потому, что она недорогая (ибо детали суммарно мне обошлись дороже, чем самый дешёвый полароид), а потому что это просто наколенночный проект. Который всё же работает. И при этом вышло, что в долгосрок это обходится дешевле — одна фотка на оригинальный полароид стоит около 1 евро, а на эту камеру — около цента (исходя из стоимости рулона термоленты).Но мы...

У меня было Falcon-приложение на Async, и в нём накопились задачи, которые надо было выполнять где-то рядом: cron-задачи, интервалы, отложенные джобы. Классический ответ — Sidekiq + Redis. Но ради трёх задач в минуту тащить в проект Redis с отдельным контейнером, отдельным процессом и отдельной точкой отказа казалось перебором.
