Banning next gen open models would never happen globally, and would be a major disadvantage to any country that does. If the USA continues to put barriers into the release of models, open and/or foreign models will start to out perform

My experience has been that unless you are using the basic graphics options of Bedrock it performs worse at the same render distance, and even with basic graphics the perf is not much better. With Java version getting Vulkan rendering I sus

It's much more likely SpaceX will continue building more ground data centers and using their sat relays to make global connection faster than ground connections can allow.

Quantized Gemma 4 26B is as smart or better than GPT 5 in most of my testing. Granted GPT 5 is nearly a year old at this point, but I can run Gemma 4 on a ~6 year old consumer GPU (RTX 3090) and get 140 t/s.

This sounds like classic "you're using it wrong", if they had said it was done in smaller tasks you would very likely have people here saying that was wrong too.

Maybe a flaw in the labeling, but not the core methodology. Verbatim code snippets like this imply the model is overfitting to it's training data.

While I probably wouldn't classify it as cheating, it is an even bigger signal of concern for model quality. Cheating by breaking the rules at least implies some learned patterns. Repeating training data verbatim for narrow cases like

The way I see it the benefit of benchmark isn't to take Simon's results at face value. It's a template for your own benchmarks that are easy to visually evaluate.

If you look at it broadly nearly all software is subsidized by open source, so it's a smart choice to send some subsidies back to open source.

Both metrics are valuable. If one uses AI minimally and is able to out perform peers who are maxing out AI spend, one might want to use that in salary negotiations.

I love Rust, but porting others software to Rust (or any language) is a mixed bag. I'm a strong believer that good software requires deep domain knowledge to build and maintain. Porting code you don't understand by hand already ri

The marketing of Claude relies primarily on fear, and I don't think that will have lasting success. Using fear like that tends to backfire once people see past false taking points.

I'd argue that Go and all other implicit async approaches do have function colours. You're much less likely to notice the colour, but in the edge cases where it can be noticed such systems are harder to work with.
