so i guess that's a good argument for replacing employees with a bespoke LLM for your business-they will never leave after they're trained. and they never ask for a raise. and they dont need benefits or carry other human risks.

At what point does LLM output become more expensive than search? For example, the author made protocollie. Could the LLM gather all similar apps that are already written to solve the prompt that birthed it,, and then simply provide THOSE ap

Well i asked chatGPT IF i could run kimik2 on a 5800x 3d with 64 gigs of ram with a 3090 and it said: Yes, you absolutely can run Kimi-K2-Instruct on a PC with: :white_check_mark: CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D :white_check_mark: GPU: NVIDIA RTX

I wonder if they can use the same cooling tower for their nuclear plant and their data center? Colocating fission reactors and datacenters might be a way to get some use out of all those empty malls resulting from amazonification.

But LLMs will not move to another company after you train them. OTOH, interns can replace mid level engineers as they learn the ropes in case their boss departs.

The bottom line is that scaling requires money and the only way to get that in the private sector is to lure those with money with the temptation they can multiply their wealth. Things could have been different in a world before financial e

This is a politically correct farewell letter. Obviously something we little people who need jobs have to resort to so the next HR manager doesn't think we are a risk to stock valuation. For a deeper understanding, read Empire of AI by

ERs cannot turn people away. Waiting times will get longer. Hospitals owned by private equity will get a surprise bite to their bottom line. University hospitals will send their bills to the state.

Perhaps I misunderstood but it calculates the FDE of query and looks for a similar FDE in the dataset of the model. Doesnt this require calculating all the equivalent sized FDEs in the model?

Wait till the ads are interspersed into chatGPT output (and Gemini and Claude too). I'll need an local LLM to filter out the ads from the LLM I'm using in the cloud.

Thank you for the hint. I guess I need a claude API token. From the images it seems he is opening it from his default directory. I sees the 'base env' so it is unclear if any other packages were installed beyond the default linux.

I suspect that economies of scale are different for software and hardware. With hardware, iteration results in optimization of the supply chain, volume discount as the marginal cost is so much less than the fixed cost, and lower prices in t

Is AI's relationship to knowledge the same as an index fund is to equities? Does the fact that larger and larger groups of people use AI result in more homogeneous and 'blindered' thinking?
