I mean, by any reasonable standard it still is. Almost any computer can run an llm, it's just a matter of how fast, and 0.4k/s (peak before first token) is not really considered running. It's a demo, but practically speaking

That's actually pretty cool, but I'd hate to freeze a models weights into silicon without having an incredibly specific and broad usecase.

Probably 15 to 20 years, if ever. This phone is only running this model in the technical sense of running, but not in a practical sense. Ignore the 0.4tk/s, that's nothing. What's really makes this example bullshit is the fac

That's just such a massively oversized server for the number of gpus. It's not like they're doing anything special either. I can buy an appropriately sized supermicro chassis myself and throw some cards in it. They're re

Honestly two rtx 8000s would probably have a better return on investment than the red v2. I have an eight gpu server, five rtx 8000, three rtx 6000 ada. For basic inference, the 8000s aren't bad at all. I'm sure the green with fou

Do you have an elected schoolboard? In my state, if something was that bad, there would be no end to the meetings and public complaints.

Every single one of these steps are blatantly an attack on user freedom. The steps to unlocking the bootloader and install a different rom are not nearly as onerous. The only thing I will accept as reasonable, is a complete abandonment of t

Remember, alien is also a term also applied to non-us citizen people.

Can we just focus on real problems, like stable and safe application of existing models? I'm just exhausted with the bullshit.

Several issues, one OS developers will likely use this to fully identify all users. Apple, Google and Microsoft would rather have legal identities tied to all activity, and this is an easy pretext. Second, there's no certainty about ho

It's a brute-force solution, for a problem with many simpler and limited solutions. This is being pushed so hard for it's intended side-effects. The goal is not to protect children, and it never has been. The goal is to eliminate

This coordinated state level attack on the legislative process is crazy. These people can't seem to be bothered to do the basics of governing, but they always find time to do this cross-state nightmare fuel.

Who pays for a Spotify subscription, to listen to out of copyright compositions, and recordings that probably can be found easily in the public domain? Might as well complain that TikTok has no feature length documentary films in IMAX.

I'd say that history has already established that this discrimination is likely as it has already occurred before.

by ottah 7mo ago
Playing devil's advocate, but can you justify discriminating against an entire class of people, because of the actions of a subset? Part of the reason for protected classes is not to be reduced as an individual to the perception of the

Ah, I see. It's just another fucking tpm, which let's venders approve or deny execution of signed binaries. So more infrastructure to attack general computing.

It cuts both ways. You can write a GPL version of a proprietary or permissively licensed program. The only difference is the effort of the rewrite is (theoretically) easier. (I have my doubts the rewrite is a reasonably defect free replacem

I also seriously question what even does PhD-level mean in the context of a model? Someone with a PhD has developed a very deep but narrow knowledge of a particular domain and has contributed to at least pushing out our sphere of knowledge

This chart is missing all of the non-us competition, which while not at the top, is always right behind the flagship models. These competitors also have much lower inference costs, due to the model architectures being built with a focus on

The outputs of a camera can be protected by copyright only where a human author has determined sufficient expressive elements. This can include situations where a human-authored work is perceptible in an photographic image, or a human makes

Age verification is about one thing only, it's about controlling how you participate in public society. The state wants a veto on public participation that they don't like. This system will not prevent children from being exposed

Yeah, you don't have a right to know how art is made. You can choose to engage with it ot not.

But did the agent handle python errors correctly, or did you get a bunch of Expect and pass statements?

I have far more faith that fusion someday might be useful than I do for quantum computing.

At this point it feels like the Trump administration is just trying to turn us into the hermit kingdom. Isolated, and brutally autocratic.

Or maybe we have never needed an exclusive economic monopoly on a creative work to encourage the creation of art? Maybe we would all be in a better world were art and culture lived in the collective commons, free for anyone in the zeitgeist

Ha, nice try on throwing shade. I read voraciously, and have done so since I could pick up my first book. I don't think there's any more or less dignity in being poor, but neither am I impressed with these weird things wealthy peo
