  Not an answer to the question, but in case performance is the goal, Torchaudio has it here

  Ah, even then it could just be a consequence of training samples usually being chronological so it learns to think that way. I did find the pattern also applies to GPT trained on long articles where you’d expect it not to, so wanted to just explain why that might be.

  Or I should explain better: most training samples will be cut off at the top, so the network sort of learns to ignore it a bit.

  Yes, that’s by design, the networks work on transcripts per input, it does genuinely get cut off eventually, usually it purges an entire older line when the tokens exceed a limit.

  They previously did not use APEX but that seems to have changed recently: https://github.com/GrapheneOS/grapheneos.org/commit/7bf9b2671667828d1553c92bf4f64cc749b74d0b Regardless it will need the verified boot keys it seems so Google can’t update them, likely the devs will take responsibility to update the CAs. No idea if they will restore the user control though.

  I feel like this is just describing the future of business processing consultants. Like there’s already a role for this, unless I’m missing something?
