I picked up a couple RTX 4060ti in the 16GB version for $450 each a couple days ago from Bestbuy. Had been looking at the 3060 like yourself. Installed LM Studio and have been trying out a bunch of models with varying levels of quantization

Anonymity should be the default. I don't have any right to come peeking into your windows, or to tap your phone, even if there's a market for whatever I discover. The same should be true for online activity. And his comment about

It's interesting that the current CEO of NPR came from Voice of America. VOA is literally a US propaganda outlet. I've been talking about them since 2013, when the Smith-Mundt Act was amended to allow them to disseminate their pro

Intel, like any other succesful company, prices its goods based on what the market will pay, not what it costs to make. Lower costs does not mean lower prices for customers, it means more profits for Intel.

That's a little over $420 a week. If they need to spend $40k on armored transport and counting, something is wrong with their policies and procedures, not the cash.

That's where the innovation comes in.

I feel sorry for any startups looking to innovate in this space. It's hard enough competing against established players without them getting billions in free money. Intel has had the resources to build out fabs in the US for decades. I

No. Claude cannot do anything without a prompt. It cannot self determine its future. It can't pick up a hobby or love interest. It can't pursue any aspirations outside of responding to a prompt.

I tried Firefly for a month. I had the same experience that I did with Dall-E. At first you think, "wow". But then when you try tro wrangle them into completing a specific task, the "wow" quickly turns to "why?&quot

Is there a widely accepted definition of "safe AI"? Musk's definition is obviously very different from Google's. Are we including offensive language in general discussion of AI safety, or are we just talking about illega

He makes an excellent case for why all of this data should be protected by the 4th Amendment, without loopholes that allow government organizations to purchase them from 3rd parties. I assume he doesn't see it that way, though.

If you're asking about the actual prompt that was used and not "why did this happen?", it's at the top. You can scroll up to see it.

"Without regard for race" seems sound in law. Why should those writing the code impose any of their racial views at all? When asked to generate an image of a ball, is anyone concerned about what country the ball was made in? If th

Reddit's MO is snark and sarcasm. It's hard for me to imagine a scenario where a LLM trained on reddit would be useful for anything serious. How do they propose to seperate fact from fiction?

The new soccer stadium in St. Louis is completely cashless. Upon arrival, you attach a form of payment to a scan of your face, then the system tracks you and your purchases throughout the stadium. No thanks.
