No, real, actual torture: https://x.com/GonzaloLira1968/status/1686140558803140608

Who defines what constitutes "hate speech"? Do you not recognize this as a hangar-sized backdoor?

An US citizen was tortured and effectively murdered, and you're talking to me about "nuance"? WTF?

by ein0p 2y ago
Not true. Germany can prosecute you for "insulting the public officials", Spain - for "insulting the royal family", Poland for "offending the Polish nation", Italy for widely interpreted "criminal defamati

Which ones? You'll have to be more specific.

FYI: you can end up in jail for posting "wrong" things on Facebook in Europe and the UK. And the UK doesn't permit backup encryption. As far as freedom of speech, we have a _considerable_ advantage. In some European countries

I don't think anyone would willingly move to that turd. Anyone who has to be on it is already on it.

Seems unwise. I'd at least try to sell it instead. It's a very popular brand still. You don't just "kill" things like that - brands are very difficult to build.

Because the two are interconnected and aren't in conflict with each other. You not only want high throughput - that by itself would be quite limiting. You want it along with low latency as well, or else it's very easy to end up in

Seems like Ceph is considerably lower in throughput: https://ceph.io/en/news/blog/2024/ceph-a-journey-to-1tibps/ A serious concern when saving hundreds of terabytes of weights and optimizer states e

Good for them if they can keep it up. Keeping your data on foreign servers is idiotic even if the cost is acceptable. Doubly so if it isn't.

Now imagine this model (or an optimized/slightly downsized variant thereof) as a base for a "thinking" one.

By "government" at that time I mean the DNC / DeepState that twitter was entirely subservient to before Musk bought it.

Of course you aren't. But if you weren't deliberately dense, you'd see that Bezos didn't give a definition of personal liberty. He just told them that it matters, and they should write about it every now and then. One wo

Not according to Twitter files. Twitter under Dorsey and later under Agarwal was quite enthusiastic and eager about pushing the government narratives and suppressing dissent. They even deplatformed a sitting president. I get that you probab

That very much was a part of the government. They were receiving orders directly from the White House, same as now, I suppose.

"With _liberty_ and justice for all"? This should be pretty bipartisan IMO.

by ein0p 2y ago
Perhaps you should re-familiarize yourself with the Pledge of Allegiance.

Bezos is not a part of US government, thankfully.

It can be relatively cheap too under the constraints imposed by typical AI workloads, at least when it comes to getting to a 1TB/s or so. All you need is high-spec DDR5 and _a ton_ of memory channels in your SOC. During transformer inf

What is it with tech bros thinking they can successfully operate in "deep" industries like agriculture where every last bit of efficiency has already been squeezed out over the past 100-150 years? In fact, arguably, there's w

PyTorch had the "first thing that didn't suck" advantage and now it has a completely dominant marketshare that prevents better alternatives from emerging. Where it sucks (e.g. on macOS) there are popular alternatives. But it&

by ein0p 2y ago
What's frustrating is there's no real reason why regular DDR5 can't reach 1TB/sec with a sufficient number of channels. The manufacturers are just holding it back to drip feed that memory bandwidth over several generatio
296.
by ein0p 2y ago
With what memory bandwidth? Remember, without e.g. speculative decoding you need to read the entire model and KV cache for every token. Let's be extremely generous and say you get 512GB/sec in memory bandwidth, on par with a high

I wish Amodei didn't write that essay where he begged for export controls on China like that disabled corgi from a meme. I won't use anything Anthropic out of principle now. Compete fairly or die.

Some of the people who use Claude for coding work on products involving AI. I don't know what percentage, but I bet it's not trivial.

I have serious doubts about this. Consider that Apple has somewhere around 2 billion users (a very, very optimistic estimate). This would be $250 per user - an utterly ridiculous number to spend on a set of features than nobody even uses.

In fact I don't think he believes in the takeoff of AGI at all, he just can't say it plainly. Microsoft Research is one of the top industry labs, and one of its functions (besides PR and creating the aura of "innovation"
