Of course they shouldn't. If the books are rare enough there's a shared cultural value that is being destroyed.

So, for OpenAI 60-100 instead of 20-200. It seems pretty much the same.

Yes, I suppose I wrote this a year late. But again, Euclyd and VSORA. Probably basically the same thing but better.

Yeah, I think a crisis in unavoidable. Great technology, but $20-$200 a month technology, with a lot of people going for free options. Like the telecom industry. Average is probably going to be like a phone bill. Basically: you can become V

Yes, and I think you would get much more effect by going for much smaller and cheaper firms. Cerebras is only 700 people. I wouldn't buy it, but since it's only 700 people, you can probably build something like it with 1400 people

Yes, but that doesn't prove that the determinant is actually the real signed volume multiplier. I think this is what led me to feel unhappy about determinants when I was a first-year university student. You need to actually prove that

Lorenzo Sadun's Linear Algebra: The Decoupling Principle would probably be enough too if you added something about determinants.

I think LLMs are best for ideation, experiments, small things. They've probably already settled on most of the architecture and the big ideas, so they're details in big things instead of how to make complete small things. The thin

So, concerning ethical approaches to model development, there are many things worth looking into: copyright is one, environmental cost is another, and whether there are any additional concerns worth taking into account. The list of these co

I don't think these did. They'd also quit because they felt it was too much work, now that the cybersecurity situation had gone mad.

I have heard of zero murders of NATO and EU agency people, and I think you're quite wrong. There are of course people like this, recruited on the internet in the many criminal networks that exist, but I don't think they've ha

I like the argument and it seems valid, but I have heard the opposite from people working in commercial cybersecurity.

Top US universities actually have higher teacher/student ratios than top EU schools, and I wouldn't be surprised if this pattern holds in general, so it would be easier to do in the US than it is here.

Well, that's the deal, I assume-- that they weren't allowed to buy the Japanese light source outright, so they bought the American one, even though it required giving the Americans some sort of veto or control. I guess it sucks if

It isn't legally possible for them to do this at the EU level. The EU parliament would never vote for it. For pressure at the country level leading to this kind of thing I think it's very unlikely. Here in Sweden it wouldn't

Yes, but surely the problem isn't that the law requires anything in particular, but rather that a bunch of books are getting bought by an organization that is likely to systematically destroy them and that there among those books are a

I think what you want is a welfare state, not socialism. Socialism is not necessarily cuddly. "To each according to his contribution" is the one sentence description of it after all. I want socialism, because it's "to ea

There's no stopping bioweapons. Bioweapons are easy. The reason bioweapons aren't built is because very few biology nerds with sufficient lab skills are evil; and just having an LLM won't give you the lab skills to do it. Any

This is actually illegal here in Sweden though. Lawsuits are ongoing. I'm kind of surprised that there haven't been criminal cases.

How would that be justified, because as I see it would necessarily treat model outputs as more protected than actual human output? Surely Anthropic/OpenAI ToS isn't something which can have more weight than, let's say, the To

It's probably actually good, but after this stuff with Qwen-Image-3 and it's ability to things like render images that look like they were rendered with LaTeX or compose many things side by side or in depth, maybe it's perhap

Mm. Still, maybe less money could be enough. If Euclyd's chip costs 40k per chip and we want to substitute all worldwide H200 inference capacity, so let's say 700,000 H200eds and Euclyd are right about how good their chip is, then

I am actually not quite sure. Here in the EU Rhea 1 was delayed and thus maybe a bit of a failure, but Rhea 2 might be good and seems to be on time. OpenChip seems to be on time too. The university work, people like Hochreiter etc. is clear

Yes, but how would it have been if the EU governments just piled on, subsidized whoever had reasonable qualifications who wanted to try, straight-up funded accelerator development so that the chips don't just become investment in US AI

Yes, although then people came up with reasonable ways of parallelizing RNNs entirely or in part anyway. There's also the need for lookups in transformers. Queries still need to be multiplied with old keys, all of them, so RNNs don

I think the Kimi thing is super cool, especially that they have so many RNN/linear attention layers (3x more than they have full attention). I haven't yet tried it though. It seems like it would be extremely reasonable for long co

I think the right idea is better patent examination. If patent examination is correctly performed, then all patents will have real novelty and the people who have to license a patent haven't had anything taken away from them since the
