Unless a better option comes out in the next few months, I might pick one up. It seemed a bit pointless to upgrade to anything below 16 GB, and up until now that meant a 3090 or 4090. And the prices for those are pretty steep for hobbyist u

Just using the card for gaming? Absolutely go with AMD. But most of the ML libraries and tooling is built on top of CUDA, so getting things to work with an AMD card can be annoying and have worse performance despite better hardware specs on

Most under-25s probably aren't buying a $80k car as a starter vehicle, for example. And that group is very overrepresented in accidents. I doubt an average middle-aged Rivian driver is much different from an average middle-aged Toyota

In this case, sure, but unless Rivian drivers are unusually careful they will end up being at fault around 50% of the time. And their insurance companies will adjust their rates to account for $42,000 fender benders.

Great, then we can ask US language models about Tiananmen Square, and Chinese language models about US crime statistics. Maybe diversity is a benefit after all?

Fastow took a plea deal and cooperated with the government, so that isn't really a fair comparison. The "big fish" Lay and Skilling got 45 years and 24 years respectively.

Zerodium buying mobile exploits for $2-2.5M does not mean that a buyer can go out shopping for an exploit and find one in that price range. Exploits are a highly illiquid market and there is going to be a big bid-ask spread. Plus a lot of m
