You are not buying something and expecting it to be what's on the tin? Aka what the benchmarks show?

That's because the users don't care about the licence. They did try to take down a porn Lora repo on hugging face. The trick is, don't say you're using minimax, and you can make porn with it.

They're trying to cash in but this is just sad

Also in other countries like Panama, people are pressing politicians to crack down on theft and the most stolen things are wallets and phones. So by permanently locking the bootloader, manufacturers avoid as much liability worldwide as poss

This is what phone manufacturers do. Very few use vanilla AOSP with just Google mobile services and their own hardware drivers.

I think the average person doesn't know they can use the find my phone feature on Android to lock their phone. When their phone is stolen they just get sad and call it a day and get another one. Maybe report it to police if they care i

Normally the codes would be downloaded automatically from a server but sometimes the server would go down due to negligence because it would be owned by the school and well, student's laptops would start getting locked and they would h

I would think they are guessing most people's passwords are weak or something. Like a screen pattern is weak, can be broken in just 300k attempts or maybe less because people use the same patterns and people can't be bothered to u

It could be disabled from the bios somehow if you knew the bios password or the bios could be reflashed with a programming Clip directly on the bios flash chip itself.

The token budget isn't to remove Google it's to create drivers for individual phone hardware, which phone and chip manufacturers keep closed source. Also it would be used to find exploits to unlock permanently locked bootloaders

Any discussion about this is shut down. I just read an article https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckqxvy98x578o In the UK according to the BBC, politicians are pressing Samsung and apple to make stolen phones bric

Phone manufacturers had Symbian which became open source

It's a net loss. Less data and in their view makes development harder.

This sounds a lot like the same thing Openai did with navier stokes, but Openai is more stealthy about it.

Grok does or did the same thing, this is embarrasing

I see a new version of the web, web 4.0, being exactly this. Web 4.0 is the source of the live data. Web 4.0 is Fully decentralized in principle, because every web site has a vector version of their text website, linked to many others as a

A global distributed network of vector databases. The web for agents but there's no text. Only vectors and knowledge graphs kind of like graph rag. Web 4.0 which is vector based and makes this arxiv paper come true and decentralized li

That's the perfect thing to monopolize. What if, it were version two of internet content? an open search engine index? Web 3.0 turned real for answers for bots aka ai agents?

So would it be a 42 trillion parameter model, because that's how many tokens there are in the training data?

That's Taiwan's silicon shield which the taiwanese see as important. That's why japan has rapidus and the us has Intel

I would assume they want to switch to rapidus asap once it comes online

Having a us based vendor. Fujitsu is huge in Asia for ISPs and so is Mitsubishi and Sumitomo (yes they made or used to make network equipment too)

Right i forgot. That's even worse, it's a form of data poisoning but it poisons humans and not ai.

by alightsoul 9d ago
Fun fact, Fujitsu used to run their own fabs in Japan until they were sold to UMC and now they're another UMC fab although they are stuck at like the 20nm node. So this is likely made at JASM.

American exceptionalism states that America is special and unique so everyone else must be a copycat. American ai labs don't need this kind of optimization and fable will outright refuse to do it.

I mean person b found the work of person a on their own

by alightsoul 11d ago
So what if person a and person b are unrelated and person b found it on their own? There are countries in the global south that never had an industrial revolution and don't speak English and never had factories for export nor made anyt

Can't this be used to make a clean room implementation? Have someone write a spec then someone else who is unrelated, implement it from scratch?

They have all the WARC file cataloged on their site outside the way back machine

The internet archive's decentralization project is paused as far as I can tell. They have too many things to do and too little funding to do it all. Their current strategy seems to be establishing new legal entities outside the us like
