I don't understand what your argument is. It seems to be "people keep saying the models are good"? That's true. They are. And the reason people keep saying it is because the frontier of what they do keeps getting pushed

Yes! The Swordfish - completely right. Not sure why I remembered otherwise. Was the Swordfish successful? I think it was used at Narvik but it was slow and not very manoeuvrable.

I think their point is more that that architecture of this CodeRunner program isn't very clear. It's unclear if it is a container manager, or comes with a LLM Agent built in. These are two separate concerns and the README makes it

This runs on GCP The issue with using raw VMs is you want fast startup. If you are running hundreds of pieces of code per hour as you develop, or have 10 or 20 agents running simultaneously it's much better to have something faster to

I'm after this too. I want to have a "container" (used in the conceptual sense here - I'm aware of the differences between container and other solutions) that I can let an AI agent run commands in but is safely sandboxed

The reason they are called "world models" is because the internal representation of what they display represents a "world" instead of a video frame or image. The model needs to "understand" geometry and physics

Given that Groq is basically the TPU spin out Google should have done years ago it shows what a valuable asset TPUs are in Google. Still this they should spin that out though!

Of course! But the operational costs are much lower than some people in this thread seem to think. You can find a safe margin for the price by looking at aggregators. https://gpus.io/gpus/h100 is showing $1.83/hou

The ongoing costs are mostly power, and aren't that massive compared to the investment. No one is leaving an H100 cluster not running because the power costs too much - this is why remnants markets like Vast.ai exist.
