idk how the hackernews community feels about this stuff but..
this is the usual oecd “gender equality is good for gdp” framing, which is fine as far as it goes, but it still treats care work like some side issue instead of the foundation of the whole labor market. if you actually want equality, stop acting like childcare, eldercare, parental leave, and wage suppression are just personal choices. they’re baked into the system.
and things like pay transparency or getting more women into leadership aren’t enough if the system still rewards overwork, instability, and unpaid labor at home. the real fix would mean socializing care, shortening the workweek, and not tying basic survival to having a job.
interesting.. this could make training much faster if there’s a universal low dimensional space that models naturally converge into, since you could initialize or constrain training inside that space instead of spending massive compute rediscovering it from scratch every time
