Jax is dead, long live PyTorch. PyTorch has _twenty times_ as many users as Jax. Any rumors of its death are highly exaggerated

I’d much prefer NVMe colocated compute. Imagine a columnar storage engine able to filter and aggregate data during scans without reading it through PCIe, for example.

But nothing ever does if you know the right people. Prima facie evidence is Epstein’s client list which our DOJ is categorically not interested in investigating.

Extra ironic that Costco HQ is in WA as well. Feels like we’re one step away from Costco University where distinguished Taco Bell professors would dole out their wisdom about AI.

Glyphosate is far less harmful than any herbicide that was in use before it. That’s why researchers have such a hard time linking it to diseases except in farmers who spray literal metric tons of the stuff. But glyphosate is a red herring -

Whatever you’re making is going to require materials, the manufacturing of which emits CO2, and transportation of your product will also require CO2, as will the rest of the sales chain to the consumer. But more to the point, because we’re

Sam’s biggest success (OpenAI) did not have a “great idea”, nor did it have a “great product” for many years. Some (not me - I’m a customer) would argue it still doesn’t, since their product currently does not have a path to profitability.

Does it matter that much of “China’s” emissions are caused by manufacturing stuff for “environmentally conscious” US and Europe? Or is it “different” and I “don’t understand”?

US auto manufacturers could coast for 50 years on reissuing the classics upgraded for fuel efficiency and crash safety. Instead we get soulless, gaudy, plastic bullshit that falls apart the moment the warranty expires.

PCIe doesn't matter - these accelerators talk to one another, and Gaudi is outstanding in this regard. HBM2e also doesn't matter if you run decent sized batches (which you should, for throughput). In fact, HBM2e, being far less su

Assuming you mean “decent” toolchain, it’s actually pretty decent. Could it use some polish? Yes. But any decent ML engineer would be able to get a high performance server (or a batch job) running in a relatively short time. Or in almost no

We’re probably just using the “overengineering” that the evolution put into us to account for much harsher living conditions that existed previously. I have no other explanation, in any case. That’s also why a lot of us are fat.
