It's misleading to compare a desktop GPU against a data center GPU on these metrics. Blackwell data center tenor cores are different from Blackwell consumer tensor cores, and same for the AMD side. Also, the size of the native / a

Affine transformations don't change relative density. You can think of it this way. There's a density function on the shapes in question. Whenever you transform the 2d space, you have to adjust the density at the same time to pres

I suspect at least in part it is to move loyal customers into larger and more expensive segments over time. Let's say the first car you get is a Polo and you really like it, so your next one is a Polo as well. Over the decades, you&#x2

Google aren't advertising their search as "for entertainment purposes only" though. And even if they did, it wouldn't really matter. The way Google search is overwhelmingly used in practice, misinformation spread by it i

Yes, they should also be held liable, but clearly the case of AI is worse. In your hypothetical, Google is only copying a snippet from a website. They're only responsible for amplifying the reach of that snippet. In the OP case, Google

I think this is the right way to look at it. Privacy is extremely important to me, but cars are basically lethal weapons. Using them on public roads has to come with a certain amount of responsibility that balances privacy against other goo

When using APIs, you pay for reasoning tokens like you do for actual outputs. So, the estimation on a per-token basis is not affected by reasoning. What reasoning affects is the ratio of input to output tokens, and since input tokens are ch

The other thing is that whenever I see graphs like that spanning decades but not using a logarithmic scale, I can't help but roll my eyes a bit. We may well be approaching a dotcom moment, but this kind of graph automatically exaggerat

By now I'd assume that all modern high performance CPUs use some form of TAGE (tagged geometric history) branch prediction, so that's a good keyword to search for if you really want to get into it.

What you're replying to is an analogy, that you seem to completely fail to understand.

The next step after pipe operators would be reverse assignment statements to capture the results. I find myself increasingly frustrated at seeing code like 'let foo = many lines of code'. Let me write something like 'many lin

I'd say the main difference is that in traditional GPU languages, the thread of execution is a single lane of a warp or wave. You typically work with ~fp32-sized values, and those are mapped by the compiler to one lane of a 32-wide vec

You obviously get errors in that case, which is not great. But GP's point was that there is an entire other category of errors with git-lfs that are eliminated with this more native approach. Git-lfs allows you to get into an inconsist

At least for desktop gaming, the tensor cores are in the GPU compute units (SM), same as for the big data center GPUs. It seems ARM believe it makes sense to go a different route for mobile gaming.

The marketing speak isn't exactly clear, but I believe the point is that this is like an NPU inside of the GPU instead of next to it as a separate device. That would indeed be new, and I can see how it'd be beneficial to integra

I'd say it depends. For the total parameter count, you should just count all parameters, since that's what matters for memory requirements. For activated parameters: All unembedding parameters are used in every inference step duri

That effectively becomes a subsidy to those employers though, plus an incentive to drive wages down even more.

FWIW, and this depends on the language obviously, but formal memory models typically do forbid races between atomic and non-atomic accesses to the same memory location. While what you were doing may have been fine given your context, if you

No, the issue in Linux is that userspace has traditionally had a tendency to break itself.

The overhead is certainly less. I haven't felt the need to run a graphical application as a different user in a long time, but presumably you could forward the right environment variables and have it work including HW acceleration (whi

This is a disingenuous response because I made it plenty clear what I meant with "fast": interactive response times. And for that, we absolutely do have points of comparison, and yeah, pretty much all web apps have bad interactivi

And yet we live in a world of (especially web) apps that are incredibly slow, in the sense that an update in response to user input might take multiple seconds. Yes, fast wins people over. And yet we live in a world where the actual experie

Not at all. There are cultural expectations within each field of what kind of questions students expect to be on a test. If those expectations are violated by the test, students will reasonably be distracted, second-guess themselves, etc.

Of course. As usual, you tend to not hear about it when a system we rely on works well.
