Again, I shall correct the strawmanning of this: If you, the user, reproduce the work , then I can sue you for distributing the reproduced work . If you produce a tool/service whose only purpose is to reproduce works illegally , the

YouTube et al's copyright detection is mostly nonfunctional. It can only match exactly the same input with very little leeway. Even resizing it to a wrong ratio, or changing audio sampling rate too far fucks up the detection. Its ill

No, I'm quite aware of how LLMs work. They are statistical models. They have, however, already been caught reproducing source material accurately. There is, inherently, no way to actually stop that if the only training data for a giv

Yes! All of those things DO pose existential copyright risks if they use them to violate copyright! . We're both on the same page. If you have a VHS deck, copy a VHS tape, then start handing out copies of it, I pick up a copy of it fr

Not inherently. If their model reproduces enough of an AGPLv3 codebase near verbatim, and it cannot be simply handwaved away as a phonebook situation, then it is a foregone conclusion that they either ingested the codebase directly, or did
337.
by DiabloD3 1y ago
Yes, but two fold. There is no reason why I can't sue every single developer to ever use an LLM and publish and/or distribute that code for AGPLv3 violations. They cannot prove to the court that their model did not use AGPLv3 co

So, I'm not sure what legal regime you're pitching this for, but my reading of, for example, the UK's new tyrannical law... if merely having your identity verified by having your credit card in your hand via KYC laws, then th

Kind of wild you're willing involving yourself with the PII footgun. There is no acceptable amount of PII a business should hold unless required to by the government for extremely limited industries (ie, banking or medicine or the act

The Vive hardware platform was built and designed by HTC for Valve, and the software platform was all Valve. It's more like Google's relationship with partners under the Nexus program, but unlike Google's Pixel line. And yes,

Yes, but nothing like this. I had a Steam Link, for example, its really a verbatim copy of the dev kit of the ARM SoC they used. Fun fact, same SoC as the Chromecast 1, and the SoC is cursed. The controller was kinda cool, I didn't get

You bought a first gen product by a company that has never had an actual hardware design division, and you're complaining that it isn't perfect? Also, how is the SD Card limitation on the Deck consumer hostile? The Steam Deck is a

by DiabloD3 1y ago
The article is full of shit. SD Express cards, by virtue of being PCI-E x1 or x2, top out at whichever gen of PCI-E they implement. Lets say its a brand new 4.0 card that implements x2 lanes, that is 3.93GB/s maximum speed (there aren&

Yeah, its well known that Warp is a terminal that tries to harvest your command line executions and all keypresses. I've been recommending to people, if you had Warp installed and accidentally typed in or viewed secrets or passwords in

We already have this though. SD Express, which allows SD cards to actually protocol switch to one lane PCI-E NVME. It's been part of the spec officially since 2018, and an enhancement slightly later to add more pins to allow a second l

You say container, but if you're at AWS, for example, and you're using any API of theirs, either the original deprecated EC2 API, or the Docker API, or the Kubernetes API... its all a real honest to god VM underneath, provided

You seem to not understand how to manage long lived VMs. Why are your VMs unpatched? Why do you not have a policy to synchronize package versions and configurations across VMs? Why do you not have a full policy on how to build the VM from s

Haha, some do, and then don't know what they're looking for. Companies getting pwned because of Docker image hygiene issues should never make it to the HN front page. They still do. If your system does not involve an automatic

Funny, but no. I've merely watched smaller companies evaporate because they fell for the cloud trap. Wish I could have helped them, but they were very gung-ho on the cloud being the future. Many I've discovered because of their go

by DiabloD3 1y ago
Why would you be wasting money and going into the cloud? The cloud is not appropriate for small time users, it will always be cheaper to go with dedi or semi-dedi and building the infrastructure you need.

So why are you using a Linux that forces that on you? Sane people use Debian, Debian packages are compatible with the Debian release they are from. I do not have to worry about accidentally installing an incompatible deb; even if I try to

Docker images are built with binaries that have unpatched security bugs. They will continue to have them because the people building them do not care and do not understand how to actually build images. If you build the images, and you e

When I was doing my stuff at my former stint as a hatrack, I made the choice to ban Docker from anywhere inside the company. _Docker_ is a security hazard, and anything it touches is toxic. Every single package, every single dependency, tha

I suggest you don't brand this "Ollama for X". They've become a commercial operation that is trying to FOSS-wash their actions through using llama.cpp's code and then throwing their users under the bus when they can

As a reminder to the wider HN: LLMs are only statistical models. They cannot reason, they cannot think, they can only statistically (and non-factually) reproduce what they were trained on. It is not an AI. This person, sadly, and unfortunat

I love "bugs" like this. You can't add to your prompt "don't pander to me, don't ride my dick, don't apologize, you are not human, you are a fucking toaster, and you're not even shiny and chrome"

Nothing really to say, its just like everyone else's inference setups. Select a model that produces good results, has anywhere from 256k to 1M context (ex: Qwen3-Coder can do 1M), is under one of the acceptable open weights licenses, a

by DiabloD3 1y ago
Neat. I do 1M tokens context locally, and do it entirely with a single GPU and FOSS software, and have access to a wide range of models of equivalent or better quality. Explain to me, again, how Anthropic's flawed business model works?
