> The reality is much less confusing: Anthropic CEO does not wish for models with similar (or greater) capabilities compared to his own closed and overpriced ones to be widely released. Simply because that will affect Anthropic's bo

SENTIENT wasn't doing the same kind of inference that AI companies have now, so suggesting they have nothing new to offer is incorrect. Advanced AI is clearly dual-use technology that can be used for adversarial or defensive purposes

Ctrl+F: "national security". Didn't see national security mentioned a single time in all the current comments or in the article. Speculations about profit are great and there are many companies that will largely be irrelevan

That's speculation. We were going to attack Iran regardless. My point was, the attack you are talking about was done _by_ Israel and was not part of the plan.

Iraq was never really about WMDs. WMDs were a surface political mechanism to achieve the aims, which were different. If you look at all the individual events that transpired before then it was clear something had to be done, but it wasn&#

That's a propaganda line. Iran has lost most of its capacity to make war, but it can still harass. The money is also not as relevant as people think. The amount of money is largely political fluff, not much in the way of serious econ

Can't name any strikes Israel did that the US didn't support?

The US didn't do that, Israel did. I suspect behind closed doors, Trump thought Bibi went a little overboard there

Well, many Swiss people came to the US and got land or started businesses, so it's not like Swiss people were left out of it. :)

Looking at it again, I think you are correct. If you already know the ID of the video and it's a link-only video then you can go there yourself. If it's a fully private video and somehow you know the ID of it, you might be able to

It's largely correct, but you're missing the point. For many countries, it does not matter whether they are good or bad on a grander scale, because their power is so limited that they are largely confined. Countries that exist o

In the example provided of leaking a private video, you already need access to the private video to even comment on it. That scenario is not much of an exploit. Unless there's a better example of what can be abused, the more realistic

If you think those were about colonization, you would be well served to examine history closer.

Most countries have some kind of story they tell about themselves. New Zealand doesn't have any illusions that it is a superpower. It doesn't have the resources, the talent pool or any of that to even begin to dream of it. That

I didn't make an exceptionalist argument, but if any country's behavior and values can be measured compared to others, you will always be able to make some kind of decision about where those fall in terms of goodness or badness.

The US doesn't have black sites anymore and when it did, the interrogation techniques were chosen to avoid physical harm. The results were bad, we didn't like it here in the US even if they were extreme measures for extreme times

In some ways it's an offshoot of the honest benefit of search engines already crawling all this content. That has its own conflicts, like just how much of a page's content should you reproduce in the results before it's basi

Certainly the world is full of actions and reactions, nothing is happening in a vacuum. You don't have to be from a country to take sides, but presumably you have some kind of moral compass, some kind of values around personal freedom

The usage of the output is probably considered legal. The usage of the service for that purpose may not be, and using it at scale in a dishonest way is not, which is what China has been doing. Countless thousands of separate requests abus

Llama.cpp implemented some rotation optimizations for quantized kv cache to improve the preservation of attention quality or similar, after everyone was talking about TurboQuant. It's not perfect and when you're talking about lon

The MoE models hold up better on old hardware, but the dense models like this post promotes are in fact better. This isn't unique to Qwen. Are the dense models better-enough to use given the performance costs? It depends on what you

by CMay 3mo ago
This is my experience too. Qwen optimizes for a lot of scenarios which masks their weaker generalization compared to US frontier models. Never go below an fp16 kv cache unless you've already tested it in advance with your model on a v

At 24GB, Gemma 4 31B QAT will be better and give more concise answers. This post is mostly about unquantized results, so it's less relevant and I can't say much about as I haven't tested Qwen or Gemma via cloud API or unquan

Aspiration for the masses and policy reality are different things. They will say monopolies are bad, but what they mean is only if the state doesn't control them. The CCP has huge state run monopolies and there's nothing you can

This is a really bad, poorly thought out take, and historically inaccurate. Also, we're not afraid China will somehow be like us. If they were like us, that would be great. The problem is that China is already behaving like it is re

I was around back then too and experienced the full depth of the wild west. AI dwarfs that in every way. What you're talking about is small potatoes by comparison. Even the old internet, I'm kind of with you on that being someth

It's different, because most books don't contain the nuclear codes or have real impacts on national security. The way I see so many comments on the internet hating any sort of AI regulation, is young juveniles cursing at the insta

No. There is this fantasy that AI will take over and be our nanny, doling out the perfect communist bread, this time without having to wait in line! Fortunately, that is nonsense for many reasons, but 3 important ones are: the nature of AI
