Yes, but NPEs are necessary if patents are to be a thing also for smaller inventors. An inventor can invent things that make a nuclear power plant cheaper or more efficient or better in some other way. He can't control whether the peop

A system is responsible for anything that happens when it is permitted to operate. You can't separate the EU from what people use it to do.

It's strongly connected to the structure of the EU though, and the weak control that voters have over appointments to the commission, and every level of indirection is one at which the appointer can be influenced. If EU institutions ar

Left-leaning politics is not at all like early 1900eds left-leaning politics. Left-leaning politics has moved to very mild, not-even-social-democracy policies, taxation of wage income, a decreased focus on capital owners. Left-leaning polit

I wouldn't say that making the matrix diagonal in some basis is some further step. If we have an singular value decomposition, M=USV^*, the columns of U are linearly independent they are a basis for the space M maps things into, and th

Yes, but German society is structured to require much less energy, just as Dutch society is structured to use much less land. If you put Germans whose lives function in a US-style, even just getting to work will be a huge drag. Misery depen

Ah, yes. That's good too. Especially VSORA and the interconnect, and I guess the CPU is needed too. I guess what remains is the training chip and OpenChip will be the first.

A lot actually. Obviously not to write these comments, but a whole lot of Claude. With regard to the substance: sales of ASML machines are not currently connected to the EU getting chips, but to ASML getting paid for their work. For EU chip

Yes, but what does that affect? If we end up with a world where only US firms can use the latest LLMs and the latest LLMs are needed to keep up in the software world, or in making prototypes, then that's a whole series of fields which

I think the way to do it is this: let EU chip design firms bid. They say what their systems can do, they give their prices, and then we choose the one that can achieve the requirements (pretrain multiple 10T+ models in a reasonable amount o

by impossiblefork 3mo ago
Yeah, but if its final performance comes from being trained with data from a bigger model one can question whether it's a way to build genuinely new 40B models.
103.
by impossiblefork 3mo ago
Well, some risk must be taken, even the risk of such things. Some sort of alternative must be created, after all, since models are being restricted to the US only.

Yes, of course people would be working there for the paycheck. I think there's nothing special about public funding though. The field is so competitive that people will be mad if a competitive model is not achieved, making corruption m

I think the chips alone are 10B minimum. It'd be way bigger than CERN. Provided that the systems work, they can at least be repurposed to other things. If the organizations that are to train public LLMs can't do it, we can rent th

I think what's actually needed is two things: an EU training infrastructure that allows training of 10T+ models, and an EU inference infrastructure that is sufficient that it's possible to do RL on them. This effectively reduces t

Written laws, passed by congress and senate?

I wish the EU were legalistic and rules based, but the commission and politicians are involved in many of these things. It's like Trump's executive stuff, just with a committee instead of a single person, and I guess, with less po

Yes. I am Swedish too. Notice again the lack of warning shots. The courts really want you to do one.

Schmidhuber isn't in the EU, nor Switzerland at the moment.

This is not the law here in Sweden, at least. We don't have precedent in the way that common law countries do, and the judgements in actual cases point in slightly different directions-- in one case a court felt that the failure to fir

I think it's probably more like a year or a year and a half. I don't want to say two years, but it's what I'm actually thinking.

An invasion can be legal when authorized by the UNSC due to some crisis or when it's done in self-defence or to defend some other country. So examples of some illegal invasions: US invasion of Iraq, Russian invasion of Ukraine. Legal i

Coups like that can happen due to organizations having a small number of board members that can decide to do as they like. Proper mass-membership organizations are possible though. Same rules as a public corporation, but one vote per member

But scripture also says that many people will believe that they are holy and will be saved, and won't be, and this is one of Jesus's parables. So it's far from clear. People who believe will have works, this is also somethi

Presumably they reject it because they see the military used offensively?

In EU countries where war with Russia was seen as possible, for example, here in Sweden that is not the case. The military preparations this fear leads to take a very special form though: investment in actual defence, commitment to stay beh
