Reproducible builds for AI would be a challenge not only because it would cost millions to attempt a reproduction but also there's mixed precision training, hardware differences, cluster hardware failures, and software changes (includi

My government's websites require solving a reCAPTCHA for basic services, which is horrifying. They also use Cloudflare which blocks me sometimes. This is in the EU

Is it reasonable to expect companies to redistribute 100TB of copyrighted content they used for their LLM, just on the off-chance someone has a few million laying around and wants to reproduce the model from scratch?

If the interview consists of the interviewer asking "Write (xyz)", the interviewee opening copilot and asking "Write (xyz)", and accepting the code. What was the point of the interview? Is the interviewee a genius produc

It seems to me that at this point for the normal person, the biggest security issue is not that some hacker will hack their phone to steal their data and render their device unusable, but rather that Google will

Yeah? And if I say I have evidence OpenAI used my data to train a competitor to myself as a being that's capable of programming, will I get to have my own story on the Financial Times?

Over on the Linux side, I installed Vanilla OS recently and it has a Samba service (nmbd.service) as a bootup dependency, which waits for a non-loopback IPv4 interface to be available. So if you're on a laptop which is not connected to

I don't use the app personally but I have friends who use TikTok and sometimes they would just casually tell me "oh yeah sometimes it shows me weird stuff like nazi videos, I just scroll past them" The app's design is to

I got a 1-year trial of Gemini Advanced with my Pixel 9 and I've had similar experiences. It makes up stuff far more often than any other models and it's just not very smart. I used the free version and thought the paid Advanced v

Sadly companies will hoard datasets and model research in the name of competitive advantage. Obviously with this specific model Microsoft chose to make it open, but this is not always the case, and it's not uncommon to read papers or t

This is a major issue when it comes to things like GitHub Copilot Workspace, which is a project that promises a development environment purely composed of instructing an AI to do your bidding like fix this issue, add this feature. Currently

Facebook Meta has been making baffling bets lately. They spent tens of billions building a metaverse with the belief that people want to spend their days in a creepy legless 3d avatar of themselves that is pretty effective at simulating wha

What's with the recommendation for a YouTube MP3 converter near the bottom? There seems to be no technological relation so I can only guess the author got paid to include it, but you're legally supposed to disclose if something is

On Quest 2 it's the exact same process, you have to create a developer account (sometimes verify a credit card or phone number) and have a companion phone to enable developer mode. In fact you need to have a companion phone to use eith

If CuddleBunny227 is your stage name that you release music under and people know you as, you should probably use it so people recognise the name. It's ultimately a personal choice of whether you wanna doxx your real name or not, and m

I doubt we would even register as a blip. The universe is absolutely massive and there's celestial events that are unthinkably massive and complex. Black hole mergers, supernovae, galaxies merging. Hell, think of what chaos happens in

This is like saying a movie will disappoint because it was recorded on old film cameras instead of modern IMAX RED cameras. The version of C++ means absolutely nothing for the content of the game or the rendering techniques it can use. Whet

In my mind, Zuckerberg will always be a data-stealing lizard person and no amount of MMA training will change that

A quick reading of this. It applies to not only physical products but also software and CAD files too. Free and open-source software "that is developed or supplied outside the course of a commercial activity" is exempt. Howe

The ideological difference between the two projects really shows on their landing pages. Forgejo has a cute fox drawn by a real artist whose name is credited in the website's footer; Gitea has AI-generated images of a robot in the clou

IIRC on modern Android phones, doing this will prompt you to log into the original Google account when setting it up after resetting. If you can't log in, the phone is effectively still locked. It's supposed to be an anti-theft me

IIRC OpenAI has a clause in their agreement with Microsoft that they can terminate sharing models if they develop AGI. So it might not be a good bet unless you believe there will never be shenanigans (either "we developed AGI but Micro

I don't believe alignment/safety is the only reason. You also burn through significantly more output tokens in a back-and-forth editing session because by default it keeps repeating the entire code or document just to make one sma
