I thought LLaMA 3.1 405B was a relatively huge model. Is the size of this model really typical of half the models you find on Hugging Face these days?

Didn't Snap/Flatpak/AppImage/containers already solve this problem? Yes, sarcasm.

For Biggest Problem #3, I don't any competitive offerings from Intel or AMD, now or in the near future. I also don't see anyone crossing the CUDA moat any time soon either. A correction is natural though. Both on AI hype and NVDA

I don't see this ever happening.

What if your competition is willing to give up autonomy to companies like Microsoft/Open AI a bet to race head of you and it comes off?

Because Li-ion improvements get more investment, because it's the fastest path to commercialization. This could be true for decades to come.

By "current systems" I mean any technology I'm aware of. LLMs and transformers are trained on the data we feed them. And they can only do a limited number of things with the data. In certain domains that's enough to be i

I don't think the current systems we have are on the path to AGI, whatever that is. So it's hard to say it will be here soon. And when it does come I don't think it will transform society overnight. It will probably take many

I was thinking of doing something similar. But I was thinking of starting on a virtual machine or shell account before trying to install on real hardware. I don't know much about OpenBSD but my guess is that finding a laptop that runs

I get what you're saying. I have no evidence and no inside information. It could be a conspiracy, but I doubt it. It could just be multiple individuals independently being uncomfortable with tacitly approving a huge company they see as

I think calling it a conspiracy theory is a bit of a stretch. I could be wrong. I agree that's how it should be. But I don't get the impression there are lot of fans of Google in the Prize Committee. Either way, it's not some

I was going to comment on this but then decided not to because I thought I was being too petty. But I'm glad to see other people agree. It's disturbing. I see someone else commented that it's probably due to copywrite/li

That's my suspicion, yes.

Hinton was never going to win the Nobel Prize while working for Google, right?

They want you to use wireless as much as possible. Their dream is 0 physical ports. And I say this as an iPhone user and someone who generally likes using Apple products.

A fair number probably handle it by leaving the industry. I recently learned some women I work with have their own group that meets up outside of work.

Companies love subscription based services. I have to assume it's becauce they're much more lucrative. But many times companies forget the other part: what value are they providing? Telling me I now have to subscribe to something

I was surprised you're allowed to this. But I also haven't read the license.

Don't worry, people are hard at work making sure these AI systems are "aligned".

Pretty easy to install on a ThinkPad T480s. I had to disable Secure Boot and switch the boot type to "Both" instead of "UEFI" or "Legacy". Trackpad/TrackPoint works. LAN works. Wifi works. Graphics are acc

Building in the URCRT64 environment means the executables wont run on versions of Windows older than 10 without extra runtime support, I think. So that's something to watch out for.

This guy is brilliant. He tries to simplify things when so many are going the other way.
