Yeah, as another commenter mentioned, all Google SWEs have developed in the cloud for a long time. It allows you to write, run, and test code performantly on any computer with a browser. Some of OP's wishlist are realities at Google. E

I'm sorry you feel so cynical about this. It's absolutely true that Google is profit-seeking, that these models are very expensive to build, and that if there's a competitive advantage to be had, Google should probably try to

It's not as simple as this. Google Search came without Safe Search & other guards at first because _implementing privacy & age controls is hard_. It's a second-order product after the initial product. Bad capabilities (e.g

It's not that they are arbiters of morality and truth -- it's that they have a _responsibility_ to do the least harm. They spent money and time to train these models, so it's also up to them to see that they aren't causi

Not a figmate but I would guess they create their own virtual representation (e.g. how the browser maintains the CSSOM & DOM trees) and render that to a canvas, rather than relying on the browser to render the SVG.

Seems like the obvious answer is no. But if can see that they are doing important stuff, and you're letting your hangups over unrelated political issues keep you from donating to their awesome work, I'd say that's a mistake.

They found the treatment of Palestine by Israel to be the morally reprehensible thing -- not specifically data collection itself but weaponized data for enacting a system of oppression.

It _is_ deterministic (same input gives same output). You typically don't "test" pairs of inputs/outputs for a model. Instead you measure its performance by defining metrics e.g. "what's the ROUGE-2 score on su
