You mean he has his own private supply of poop that is involuntarily tapped into at any random moment?

Depends on how it's done I think: breaking stuff vs sitting on it. And sitting on a highway is also quite visibly claiming the action, that is not clear in this case. If this is XR, would be very dumb and against their message.

More akin to the German verb 'reden' I think: talk. It's a talk from the throne.

If Microsoft is operating the software outside your house without your involvement and it still burns your house down, no EULA is going to absolve them.

That we don;'t understand it is not an excuse, it's all the more reason to not let these things roam freely, with this amount of potential to do damage.

My electricity contract in the Netherlands here is on a "Dynamisch tarief", with the most direct translation being "Dynamic tariff". It means I pay/get a different price for my power every 15 minutes. "Tarief&q

Because it's cheap and easy. Hold for many such questions... Why is all of the world dependent on tech an ever more hostile US? Same answer.

You don't think China (as a whole and as the government) is making it's money back? If not now, then in a few years

Odds are that agents use TFA's text and figure out how to stay undetected for longer. That'll be interesting I suppose, to say the least.

Being dependent on (cheap) oil can make economic sense as well. Unless you get cut off all of a sudden. Depending on local energy might make more sense in the long term. also for factor other than the economy.

I read new truck sales in China are about 30% electric and climbing. Apparently it does make sense for them

Fair enough. My comment was however asking about the difference in climate damage from local vs cloud inference, is either better in that specific regard. Or even the energy usage between the two. As for ethics, i don't see a meaningfu

> If Proposal H has a weakness, it's that it does not distinguish between local and cloud-based LLMs Is the energy usage so different between local and cloud inference? Both require electricity, the local option even more than the b

I read the article, but still, how can anyone making such a mistake be deemed sane enough to still be allowed to drive a car? Alas, I'm far from 85, hard to imagine making that kind of error.

How does pone drive 20 hours in the wrong direction, when trying to go to an appointment 19km away? What must go wrong when you are allowed to drive and not realize that mistake after at most an hour or so?

Same amount of humans means no cost savings. More science is hard to value, while less salaries paid is easy to value.

Ah, thanks, had to be something like that indeed. Had a hard time imagining putting work into an ICE and getting anything useful out.
23.
by ragebol 3mo ago
I don't see why that would be the case. Why is the 20% of eg. an internal combustion engine coupled to the 500% COP of a heat pump? I see a vague connection as an ICE also uses expanding gasses etc, but that's about it. What am I

by ragebol 3mo ago
True. For residential heating, heat pumps make for a similar ratio as they make 3-5 units of hear for 1 unit of electric energy, depending on conditions. The challenge in heating is industrial heat, which is much hotter. Can't do that

When looking at hat kind of graphs, it's good to keep in mind that burning hydrocarbons is relatively inefficient: only ~20-30% of the energy in the fuel turns into useful work, while electricity is much, much more efficient. So, we ne

Maybe so. That leaves just the hardware. Deprecates badly. Maybe gamers will take it off their hands gladly?

Yes, they have assets: GPUs sitting in datacenters, and data. Question is: is that worth enough to cover the debt after the market crashed?

by ragebol 3mo ago
I would have thought this would be about electricians and carpenters with camera's on their heads to train AI. Apparently not yet. Imagine robots (humanoids or something more specialized) building datacenters...

My wife had a terrible fear of loosing me in this station, afraid she would loose me and never find me back :-) . It felt like the biggest station we knew before, multiplied by 10 and then molded and warped like a ball of dough. IIRC there
