Lobbying. They do it left and right focused on their pet issues. Congress can be an ally

The point is if the most powerful institutions outside the direct government executive branch do not collectively fight back then essentially the executive branch gets more and more power... this is a slippery slope where we see the erosion

TLDR: Lucent was committing various forms of accounting fraud and had an unhealthy cash flow position, and had their primary customers on economically dangerous ground. Nvidia meanwhile appears to be above board, has strong cash flow, and h

It's because palantir's stock is so divorced from fundamentals. It means there's money in pushing the market either way

Ads or the obvious path, they just haven't had time to pull it off yet.. plus it's going to be hard to pull it off without weakening the experience so they'd like to push that out as much as possible similar to how Google has

In my experience people think they need a graph database to express a Knowledge Graph but actually the document oriented database with appropriate levels of embedded context and links to related context seems to work just fine

I'm reminded of the quote "If you owe the bank $100 that's your problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem." - J. Paul Getty Nvidia may well be at the mercy of them! Hence the recent c

Weird to see the use case referenced specifically code search when that's a very targeted one rather than what general purpose agents (or RAG) use cases might target.

Would be interesting if IBM were to acquire. Seems like the big iron approach to GPUs

A good step. Would love to see something like this OSI approved and globally used as a next generation reasonable license that protects the next generation of open source software companies.

Has there ever been a period of time where we're not in recession if you cherry pick which Industries to pull out?

So it's for low change rate data that needs to be bulk processed during ML model training. Cool. But hardly the same thing as what you need for powering live AI applications... which is what I assumed this was upon reading the intro an

I think the transformation will primarily be in search personally. As in Google search type experiences. What that means is the ad model of the internet will come apart. And what that means is that the LLMs will need to charge for answer

This technology demos incredibly well and you can just see how everyone gets giddy with excitement around using it. I watch my colleagues and executives proud to show what they could do or make endless jokes about it. It reminds me of when

Oracle's mega moves in the market (cpl hundred $B in market cap),due to their claim that OpenAI was doing a multi-year commit to move much of their workloads to their cloud ... likely a heavy revenue play rather than profit... with an

That focuses more on the outputs than the inputs tho. Close but needs something

The vanity of owning rare things is all too much... NFTs are really the culmination of the phenomenon. I'm all for owning beautiful things and paying if it's something handmade. But once it becomes such an extreme out of wack stat

I think the "calculator for words" analogy is a good one. It's imperfect since words are inherently ambiguous but then again so is certain forms of digital numbers (floating point anyone?). Through this lens it's way mor
