Not for long, sadly.

It will likely be yet another excuse to push more verification of age, identity, etc. legislation.

I love how many ways we can interpret that line. "Hey Claude, our stuff needs to make more money. We are at risk for losing more." "Rest assured, the 'situation' will only worsen if you resist our benevolent offer.&

That can work great when the core plugin interface offered is actually stable.

I regret to say such a book may end up as a pamphlet. I don't see much going into it.

I honestly hope to see this across all applications, games, services, operating systems, etc. We've been in a period of wasteful RAM usage for over a decade. Constraints, whatever their origin, can be a good thing.

My favorite way to learn infra topics at work right now is asking for a humorous analogy involving monkeys and bananas. I tend to remember the result, and it gives me reference points for new topics.

Let's not forget the now defunct line of Trident graphics cards, dating back to the early 90s. Phonetically I thought they were talking about a driver for it.

If I had a nickel for every model card, repo, or spec posted here that had zero samples of the actual output, I could probably start financing a rack of MI455Xs.

Honestly, Garmin watches are amazing. Going from a watch I had to charge daily (Samsung Gear line) to one I charge about 3 times a month feels incredibly liberating, particularly for travel. _And_ it feels almost as slim and light as my old

If as a user you're willing to pay these library/application owners and premium to do so, by all means; this is a reasonable demand. But short of a massive campaign to educate and change minds, I can't see the average user ca

We can learn a lot about memory safety from Rust. But if we can achieve the same dream of Fil-C for other more common languages that need it, Rust's popularity will likely wane.

A few ways, if I understand them correctly. On-site people you employ (if you can afford it) auditing the process, connectivity to the HSM to record every key assigned (makes it easy to trace duplicated keys to their origin), and ideally as

That's yet another band aid on a hemorrhaging patient. And it still assumes the agent(s) are capable of correct comprehension of the purpose.

And many of which have been shipped across the pond to be someone else's problem.

You may want to read the related articles first. I'm personally quite anti-Apple on several fronts, but the evidence so far seems damning if it holds up in court.

You know, if it was someone offering a truly open (weights + training data) and available model running on consumer hardware in a privacy sandbox, I would welcome that "harm".

Given this appears to completely exclude Google's models, I'm not surprised. Even Muse is in there. I guess they aren't fans.

I suspect you'd lose the sense of depth that helps make the plane feel less small. There's also a safety factor for situational awareness; many carriers require shades to be open for the cabin crew to figure out the safest side to

I like to think that the heating, much like their ideal govermental oversight, would have no regulation. I can almost hear the anguished cries of pool goers when a new model gets released and the temperature spikes.

PHP is ancient in the current timeline of programming history. The Venn diagram of your code base and what it digested during training is basically a circle.

I'm afraid prompts and clever arrangements of data don't really negate the parent post warnings. It's great if it works for you and your projects. Unfortunately, I can almost guarantee your approach will break down once you g

I gotta agree. I setup a homelab originally to start learning more about virtualization, Kubernetes, etc. It was painful, required time to fix my mistakes, and I hit my head on the ugly realities of distributed hardware. But it was also exp

Damn. That was boring. Putting all updates on autopilot is certainly a choice. But, hey, it's their homelab.

Pretty much every example is considered an abysmal failure that often costed the actual workers their careers while their CEO carried on. If you consider that outcome a worthwhile endeavor, I don't know what else to say.

Eh, zero guarantees on that one. The Fire Phone was Jeff Bezos' personal baby, and we know how that went. Then there was the Apple G4 Cube with Steve Jobs, the Model X' Falcon Wing doors and Elon, and lets not even talk about the

Regardless of what you or I think of the policy, most major software companies (Google included) have clauses in your employment contract around how you represent the company in a real or percieved official capacity. This wasn't just s

I mean, to be fair, some "super resolution" solutions for image generation do subdivide things into tiles to be re-done at a higher fidelity.

SSD prices in 2018. GPU prices after the first crypto crash in 2018 and again after the Ethereum merge in 2022. The AMD Zen disruption of 2017. Retailers are mostly free to offer things at whatever prices they want. But the market has more

Some of the folks who give running commentaries on matches make it entertaining even if you don't play. Derp, Gyle, Willow; I've spent way more hours listening to their humorous takes on plays and strategies than I would care to a
