Sorry, but really when it come to open source: money dont smell. If they do give money to real projects with OSI-approved licenses it doesnt matter to me what else they do, who their sponsors are, etc. Well unless they actually do something

I guess you missed recent news. Problem is that cloud LLM might just sliently sabotage your work by downgrading output model with no notice. Or cloud LLM might just refuse to sell to you because it dont like your passport.

Except its like completely useless and insane from security standpoint. Any bad actor will just pay $50 to a meth junkie to register and verify account. Fortunatelly its all just secuiry theatre so no one cares.

Come on guys, just give your ID, passport data and photo (since it scans NFC) to Persona. After all Peter Thiel is the most trustworthy supplier of tech in US used to kill people using drones with AI including face recognition. Nothing bad

I'm not worried abou LLM written content, my problem is not word prediction. My problem with it pretty much like with mass produced self help books decade ago. Good human writing especially on highly technical topics its usually compre

Not that I want to cheat in such a game, but for many words everything but correct definition is shorter or follow some "dumb rpg text" template. Like if author used LLM to generate wrong definitions per word instead of actually m

This is not just about specific plants. Its about the fact that deployment of nuclear slowed down dramatically in last 30 years. Coal is still generating a third of whole world power and polluting everywhere a lot.

by SXX 4mo ago
Biggest problem is that people not aware of how many closed down or not built nuclear power plants been replaced with coal power plants. And coal kills more people in a week than all nuclear incidents killed in all history of humanity. Not
