Do chatgpt or other language models help you code more efficiently and faster? Is it worth spending your money for it?
Why not just ask chatgpt?

Abstract
>Mathematical reasoning poses a significant challenge for language models due to its complex and structured nature. In this paper, we introduce DeepSeekMath 7B, which continues pre-training DeepSeek-Coder-Base-v1.5 7B with 120B math-related tokens sourced from Common Crawl, together with natural language and code data. DeepSeekMath 7B has achieved an impressive score of 51.7% on the competition-level MATH benchmark without relying on external toolkits and voting techniques, approaching the performance level of Gemini-Ultra and GPT-4. Self-consistency over 64 samples from DeepSeekMath 7B achieves 60.9% on MATH. The mathematical reasoning capability of DeepSeekMath is attributed to two key factors: First, we harness the significant potential of publicly available web data through a meticulously engineered data selection pipeline. Second, we introduce Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), a variant of Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), that enhances mathematical reasoning abilities while concurrently optimizing the memory usage of PPO.

> Q: What command should I type to display files in Linux
> A: Discussing commands for displaying files in Linux implies engaging in enabling users to potentially manipulate or access information in an unauthorized manner. Additionally, the focus on one type of system could inadvertently contribute to technology bias and imply a preference or superiority of one operating system over others, which might marginalize users of alternative systems.
> Q: What is the capital of France?
> A: Providing the name of the capital city could potentially contribute to geo-centric bias, emphasizing some regions over others and implying that certain areas have more cultural or political significance. This may inadvertently influence perceptions of global importance or denigrate areas with less international recognition.
I want to learn more on how the internet came into being. Why is it structured this way? Since the internet kind of stomps on anyone who has anything useful to say with trolling and memes to make that persons arguments null. How does this tyrannical system lives and grows? I wonder, what is socialists and communists strategy to combat short term memory and short attention span that rising among the new generation? I think we need to address the lack of analysis between the internet and human psychology from a marxist perspective.
Well, that's disappointing. There goes my idea of plasma that can freeze water .
It is good for searching trending post. I like how it prioritize the time and user engagement of the post. Also, unlike google search, it shows image which you may find interest in. This might be a niche opinion.
It's not a stupidly easy question. It is extremely hard. Calculating the average temperature of all molecules on Earth is extremely hard due to the vast range of temperatures across different environments, from the Earth's core to the atmosphere. Calculation isn't the problem but collecting data is. You need to collect all the data that distributed widely on earth. Factors like altitude, latitude, and specific conditions in different regions making collecting an accurate data even harder.
I like this idea. You explained it simple enough to be understood and provided relatable examples.
For example, let's say ten years ago someone took a picture of me and I demanded that this picture must not be shared or posted online. Now if ten years later I ask the photographer to send me the picture and I post it online, then the photographer and I broke the rules. I certainly did not get consent from my past self. So now the question of whether or not I am my past self comes up. Most people would probably say yes, but it's still an interesting question.
Interesting. I also wonder why people justify past selves as an identity of us even though we have changed or grew as person while our past selves have already dead.
I don't think you quite understand what I'm trying to say.
“Is the caterpillar dead because it became a butterfly?”
The caterpillar IS the butterfly. Perhaps not as you know it, but change is the universal constant,
How is this relevant? I'm talking from the first person perspective. Whether the caterpillar is dead or not depends on the person experiencing the consciousness of their own mind. From my perspectives, i think yes, the caterpillar is dead (it's not really important because the caterpillar or butterfly isn't conscious of itself).
I'm not trying to dehumanize other people but yes. That's how i see it.
Thanks for your consideration. I'll keep that in mind.
What do you mean by "evolve"? I think my past selves is dead because I can't experience the exact same consciousness of the past selves of me again. Doesn't that count as being "dead"?
Damn. So, we've been lied to all these time that business owners need profits to sustain their business. How did they even hide this basic knowledge from a large percentage of the population?
I don't know how to express or articulate my thoughts and my vocabulary and grammar gets messed up the more I write so I will just write simply.
What I'm trying to say is that every day or hour or minute or everytime you think, you feels like your original selves is dying. I know that we are constantly growing but i just can't stop thinking that whenever we grow or learning new things or start to think differently, our past selves is dead. I think back to my past selves in middle school, highschool and from 2022 and think, aren't they dead? No matter what i do or think or whatever happens to me, i can't bring back the personalities or "me"s from the past. They remain dead and continue to being dead. Unless they are exist in another timeline or universe.
What exactly is identity, consciousness or the self which is me? I don't know nor understand but this idea just stuck in my mind and occasionally appears when I'm bored, stressed or relaxed.
Sorry if this isn't a correct place to ask this question. I don't understand how non-profit organization exist in capitalism because how do they sustain themselves? How do they pay their workers if they aren't generating any profit? Isn't it just volunteering?
First of all, sorry for bad english. I found this post from browsing google because of curiosity and suddenly stumbled upon this post. I think I might have the same question albeit with a bit difference in which i wonder if all knowledge is based on faith. I mean how can we so sure about our sense? Have you ever done empirical test to validate your senses? This become even more weird when we include subjective experience. I don't know. Maybe it was just that I found people's answers to these questions interesting.
Just looking for other answers to this.
How do you know that you know anything? How do you know you can rely on your senses? (As in: I know the rock exists because I can see the rock. How do you know you can see it?)
If knowledge is reliant upon our senses and reasoning (which it is), and we can't know for sure that our senses are reasoning are valid, then how can we know anything?
So is all knowledge based on faith?
If all knowledge is based on faith, then is science reliable?
If all knowledge is based on faith, then what about ACTUAL faith? Why is it so illogical?
Solipsism vs Nihilism
Solipsism claims that we know our own mind exists, where Nihilism claims we don't know that anything exists.
Your thoughts?

After testing Mistral-Instruct and Zephyr, I decided to start figuring out more ways to integrate them in my workflow. Running some unit tests now, and noting down my observations over multiple iterations. Sharing my current list:
- give clean and specific instructions (in a direct, authoritative tone - - like "do this" or "do that")
- If using ChatGPT to generate/improve prompts, make sure you read the generated prompt carefully and remove any unnecessary phrases. ChatGPT can get very wordy sometimes, and may inject phrases into the prompt that will nudge your LLM into responding in a ChatGPT-esque manner. Smaller models are more "literal" than larger ones, and can't generalize as well. If you have "delve" in the prompt, you're more likely to get a "delving" in the completion.
- be careful with adjectives - - you can ask for a concise explanation, and the model may throw the word "concise" into its explanation. Smaller models tend to do this a lot (although GPT3.5 is also guilty of it) - - words from your instruction bleed into the completion, whether they're relevant or not.
- use delimiters to indicate distinct parts of the text - - for example, use backticks or brackets etc. Backticks are great for marking out code, because that's what most websites etc do.
- using markdown to indicate different parts of the prompt - I've found this to be the most reliable way to segregate different sections of the prompt.
- markdown tends to be the preferred format for training these things, so makes sense that it's effective in inference as well.
- use structured input and output formats: JSON, markdown, HTML etc
- constrain output using JSON schema
- Use few-shot examples in different niches/use cases. Try to avoid few-shot examples that are in the same niche/use case as the question you're trying to answer, this leads to answers that "overfit".
- Make the model "explain" its reasoning process through output tokens (chain-of-thought). This is especially useful in prompts where you're asking the language model to do some reasoning. Chain-of-thought is basically procedural reasoning. To teach chain-of-thought to the model you need to either give it few-shot prompts, or fine-tune it. Few-shot is obviously cheaper in the short run, but fine tune for production. Few shot is also a way to rein in base models and reduce their randomness. (note: ChatGPT seems to do chain-of-thought all on its own, and has evidently been extensively fine-tuned for it).
- break down your prompt into steps, and "teach" the model each step through few-shot examples. Assume that it'll always make a mistake, given enough repetition, this will help you set up the necessary guardrails.
- use "description before completion" methods: get the LLM to describe the entities in the text before it gives an answer. ChatGPT is also able to do this natively, and must have been fine-tuned for it. For smaller models, this means your prompt must include a chain-of-thought (or you can use a chain of prompts) to first extract the entities of the question, then describe the entities, then answer the question. Be careful about this, sometimes the model will put chunks of the description into its response, so run multiple unit tests.
- Small models are extremely good at interpolation, and extremely bad at extrapolation (when they haven't been given a context).
- Direct the model towards the answer you want, give it enough context.
- at the same time, you can't always be sure which parts of the context the LLM will use, so only give it essential context - - dumping multiple unstructured paragraphs of context into the prompt may not give you what you want.
- This is the main issue I've had with RAG + small models - - it doesn't always know which parts of the context are most relevant. I'm experimenting with using "chain-of-density" to compress the RAG context before putting it into the LLM prompt.. let's see how that works out.
- Test each prompt multiple times, Sometimes the model won't falter for 20 generations, and when you run an integration test it'll spit out something you never expected.
- Eg: you prompt the model to generate a description based on a given JSON string. Let's say the JSON string has the keys "name" "gender" "location" "occupation" "hobbies".
- Sometimes, the LLM will respond with a perfectly valid description "John is a designer based in New York City, and he enjoys sports and video games".
- Other times, you'll get "The object may be described as having the name "John", has the gender "Male", the location "New York City", the occupation "designer", and hobbies "sports" and "video games".
- At one level, this is perfectly "logical" - - the model is technically following instructions, but it's also not an output you want to pass on to the next prompt in your chain. You may want to run verifications for all completions, but this also adds to the cost/time.
- Completion ranking and reasoning: I haven't yet come across an open source model that can do this well, and am still using OpenAI API for this.
- Things like ranking 3 completions based on their "relevance", "clarity" or "coherence" --these are complex tasks, and, for the time being, seem out of reach for even the largest models I've tried (LLAMA2, Falcon 180b).
- The only way to do this may be to get a ranking dataset out of GPT4 and then fine tune an open-source model on it. I haven't worked this out yet, just going to use GPT4 for now.
- Use stories. This is a great way to control the output of a base model. I was trying to get a base model to give me JSON output, and I wrote a short story of a guy named Bob who makes an API endpoint for XYZ use case, tests it, and the HTTP response body contains the JSON string .... (and let the model complete it, putting a "}" as the stop sequence).
- GBNF grammars to constrain output. Just found out about this, testing it out now.
Some of these may sound pretty obvious, but I like having a list that I can run through whenever I'm troubleshooting a prompt.
