Sam Altman: "I think if you have a smart person who has learned to do good research and has the right sort of mindset, it only takes about six months to make them, you know, take a smart physics researcher and make them into a productive AI researcher. So we don't have enough talent in the field yet, but it's coming soon. We have a program at open AI that does exactly this. And I'm astonished how well it works."
Types of roles at AI companies
Software Engineer (not the focus of this Gist): Build customer-facing features, optimize applications for speed and scale, use AI APIs. Prompt engineering expertise is generally helpful, but AI experience beyond using the APIs or using ChatGPT like an expert is generally not needed. This Gist isn't aimed at this role.
Machine Learning Engineer: Build pipelines for data management, model training, and model deployment, to improve models (not the focus of this Gist). And/or implement cutting-edge research papers (a focus of this Gist).

# I found some good resources but they seem to do a bit too much (maybe from a time when there were more bugs).
# So here's a minimal Gist which worked for me as an install on a new M1 Pro.
# Inspired by https://github.com/malob/nixpkgs I highly recommend looking at malob's repo for a more thorough configuration

# Some people are coming directly to this Gist from search results and not the original post[1]. If that sounds like you, you should also know there is a video[2] that accompanies this.
Selected files from my standalone Nix/Home Manager set up on macOS to illustrate the general approach
These files illustrate the way that I have set up Nix and Home Manager for standalone use on macOS on both an Intel and Apple Silicon machine, in case the examples are useful to anyone. Some of the configuration is separated out into separate files in configs/ which get imported in home.nix. Some of my existing dotfiles are placed in dotfiles/ and then symlinked in by Nix to the location that that the system expects to find them.
It is a work in progress so currently I am handling installation of R separately.
