What kind of games do your kids play on Alexa?

My PhD project is to work on language model capable of playing the answerer in a Twenty Questions game (reverse of Akinator). If you are interested you can play here: https://twentle.com It is meant as a party game to play on your mobile with the learderboard on a large screen (like Quiplash)

On the back-end is a GPT-3 model answering the questions with: never, rarely, sometimes, always or usually.

I tried it for a very few seconds (on lunch, will return) and showed it to a few non-native english speakers: very interesting, especially for them.

One thing - instead of the 'is it an animal' intro, perhaps you could put 'ask your question here'.

Thanks for the suggestion! Changed it to 'ask your question here...'

Do they see this game as good way to practice their English?

It's killing me that if I run out of time, I never get to find out what the word was. could you tell me what word three was for https://www.twentle.com/p/2358 ?

Indeed, I'll change that so you can see the word after you run out of time/questions. The word was belt.

Direction display would be useful. You don't need to look at your phone anymore.

Would a smarter auto-correct help?

Did you also try with "retrieval" models models such as RAG, REALM, etc ?

Hi, first author here. Yes, we evaluated 3 retrieval-based models, DPR, RAG and FID - check out the paper for the numbers (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2008.02637.pdf)

Or block javascript for this domain in the chrome settings.

You can't do pull requests on a normal website. IMO, it is a nice experiment.

Hi guys,

I realized the internet lacks a simple place to monitor financial markets: a list of markets and their year-to-date performance, nothing more.

There it is.

Let me know what you think!

Maxime.

I love the simplicity of it! Perhaps it would be nice if you could switch between YTD, 1 week, and 1 day performance.

How frequently is it being updated? Maybe you could indicate when the data was last updated.

Thanks for your suggestions. It is updated every day at market close. Will add a dropdown to select between YTD/MTD/1Y. Would you be interested in receiving a weekly update to your inbox?

Thank you for this. It is so simple, yet so true.

Thanks, I will check it out. There are a few python wrappers around Bloomberg APIs. For example: https://github.com/kyuni22/pybbg. It mimicks the Bloomberg Excel formulas (BDP, BDH, BDS). Quite powerfull. But you can hit the daily limit easily (500,000 data points per day max). They released the Bloomberg Query Language (BQL) that you can use to make larger queries. But not all FLDS fields are available yet... They also provide BQNT, a jupyter notebook where you can run BQL queries and share "apps" with your colleagues.
