Or maybe the frontier labs could run several "personality" variants of each model and route you to them at random. Sessions are already sticky because of cache so it seems like any given cluster could be assigned one out of severa

Any given person will have phrases or ways of organizing things that they tend towards. But that isn't the same thing. Those patterns are the exception with lots of variance all around them. LLMs lack the same general variance while al

If that's true then it seems like they're ultimately doomed because if AI can place orders for me everywhere except amazon and I'm using AI to find products on amazon to order (which I already do because holy shit are their

No? If mainstream software handles the features (which mpv, vlc, and ffmpeg do) I wouldn't consider them to have fallen by the wayside. I agreed that three were rare (two I've never personally encountered in the wild) but the rest

Where are you getting 7 TB/s of memory bandwidth?

Fair enough. That seems reasonable.

I don't know about "useless" (it seems quite useful to me) but I do feel mislead. It's unified memory in the same way that my current dGPU has unified memory. I guess nvlink-c2c probably (?) doesn't introduce a bott

That is alarming. They have access to the plaintext? And they will hand auth secrets out? That seems extremely wrong to me.

The answer really depends. Root by what means? And to what end? Permanent or only temporarily? Personally I reject with extreme prejudice the android security model (it's my &#^@ device not the vendor's). But I don't gene

For text based just assume "the entirety of anna's archive" and you'll be most of the way there. For multimodal pull up a torrent tracker and sort by size descending if you want to see some of the aggregated datasets.

You used to be able to DoS the user's browser by sticking thousands of tiny animated gifs on the same page. You can't do that any more (AFAIK) because that's a bug so the browser developers fixed it. This is the same thing. I

> MP4 can do so much more None of that has fallen by the wayside though? I have seen examples of all of those in the wild except for interactive menus and multiangle. Multiple video streams is incredibly rare to encounter but I have run

Yes, kmeisthax was the first to state it in this thread. On that basis you referred to a "gross misunderstanding of democracy" and later used the term "newspeak" leading me to believe that you hold that definition to be

You are asserting this "one person one vote" definition of democracy. I am questioning it. Where did this constraint on what qualifies as "real" democracy come from? Keep in mind that the US is a democratic republic (thu

A hypothetical country with multiple classes of citizens that had different rights and voting powers would not inherently be undemocratic. It's not something I'm in favor of but equality != democracy.

Same. I read it as "if the crashes stop [ when we test by reducing the clock ] then we know that the overclock applied by the factory is marginal [ ie it barely passed QC or maybe there wasn't proper QC to begin with ] so running

Either way it seems the US has somewhere from 1 to 8 months before accounting for reductions due to national considerations. That's concerning no matter how you frame it. What's the outlook for the other major economies?

To both points, you appear to broadly lack technical understanding of the field. You are assuming that how things appear to you reflects how they are at a lower level. A chronological review of the architectures of the best open models over

But surely then you agree they are having an effect. Thus my analogy serves its point - test coverage isn't to be dismissed out of hand.

And this is the actual problem. I can't see framing it as a ratio as anything other than an attempt to mislead. What do you predict will happen when the market deflates? Whether or not a segment will behave like a line of dominoes and

Sure, the regulation that guarded against externalizing certain costs might well have been the only thing precluding profitability. Importantly it wasn't some shared cultural value leading to voluntarily leaving money on the table. Rat

LLMs are next token predictors in the exact same way that a rogue paperclip maximizer in the process of defeating the US military is a paperclip making machine. You might as well describe the primary purpose of a for loop as incrementing a

You don't need a datacenter to train a 30B model. Further, the rapid trend of increasing efficiency and decreasing model size for a given level of capabilities means that what is possible to do without a datacenter will continue to inc

But after accounting for maintenance & etc were they more profitable than sinking the equivalent amount of money into something else, such as slower aircraft? Notably there are currently efforts to develop new supersonic passenger liner

If what you want is fox ears does it matter to you which country manages to come up with the biomedical procedure to give them to you? Ditto for enhanced eyesight, a replacement liver, or whatever it is you're after.

Not in the way you seem to be thinking, no. Nuclear weapons can be banned because they are prohibitively expensive to research and build. You can't reliably hide a nuclear program. In contrast, rewind to the early 1800s and there is ze

But notably the amish don't preclude the rest of us from existing. Some subset of humans could turn their attention away from AI but it would presumably still exist and continue to be developed. I can't think of any economically b
