> Paradoxically, the one clear winner in all of this is Meta. Because the leaked model was theirs, they have effectively garnered an entire planet's worth of free labor. Since most open source innovation is happening on top of their

My hunch is that the massive layouts across IT sector are caused by GPT suddenly becoming useful and viable. We are approaching times when replacing humans with robots on such scales will trigger a public outcry, so this was the last opport

There were no lawsuits around LLaMA. They used DCMA requests to take down some GitHub and HuggingFace releases but the majority of releases (Alpacas and other animals) was left alone. It was enough to prevent commercial use, though. Edit: a

Finally some facts - the rest of the thread is wild speculation and blind judgement. Yes, few countries lose access to strongest available LLM while the investigation is undergoing. There are bigger things at stake. I don't think this

Your experience is insightful. It reminds me of a section from The Principia Discordia (not that I wouldn't recommend the rest of the book): With our concept making apparatus called "mind" we look at reality through the idea

The most frustrating thing about LLaMA "release" is that no one can make an actual product around it. Meta legal department is silent and it's anyone's guess how far the terms of use can be pushed and bent until army of

I wonder if there's a market for VR simulator that uses your actual car as a controller? Mostly for practicing maneuvers like parallel parking, or entering a busy multi-lane turnaround, but also for more immersive racing. It would requ

Yes, PlayDate uses Lua 5.4, for a good reason - it is a retro console with a ARM Cortex M7 running at 168 MHz. This is similar to RPi Pico or ESP32 and LuaJIT cannot run on it. In such environment you'd best utilize Lua for configurati

NURBs are more high-level compared to triangles. Single triangle primitive cannot be ill-defined and is much easier to rasterize. There are other high level contenders - for example SDFs and voxels. Instead of branching out the HW to offer

From my limited exploring this is mostly noise. For example, math lib is taken from recent sqlite and backported, useful only if your sqlite lib is more than 2 years old. Quite a few extensions are taken from 'ext' dir in sqlite s

That's like saying that obtaining the On the Origin of Species or Linux kernel will be harder in future. If anything the SD weights will be increasingly ubiquitous as they start embedding it into consumer electronics.

The claim that "almost all of the most important world music rhythms are Euclidean rhythms" requires some serious cherry-picking and arm twisting. I would agree on much weaker claim that all Euclidean rhythms can be recognized in

Why call it 1950s style when it was most common mode of operation up to 2019? Elon already insisted Tesla engineers work on-site, so this move isn't too surprising. What leaves me puzzled is why would anyone decide to work there. Where

GPS in map rotating mode is terrible for spatial awareness. I always keep it in fixed north-upwards mode and I found it does wonders for both navigating streets quickly and for getting to know the layout of wider area.

The model runs on just about anything, it's just a question of how fast. My Intel i7 CPU can use OpenVINO to generate a standard image in about 25 minutes. The M1 can do it in ~45 seconds. For comparison, modern GPUs take about 10 seco
