Why? If I'm writing a mail receiver, and I'm told there is some unique ID generated by the sender in a loosely specified way , the first thing I'm doing is ignoring that value forever . One lesson surely most everyone learn

I watched one of those Out Of Spec videos on an earlier Rivian and it was full of praise and raving. Then there was a later video where they almost on the side mentioned when it came out of the factory it felt legitimately unsafe to drive o

Its fitting he would think the reference in EVs is the Model Y of all things, the technologically outdated, slow charging car whose sales are falling off a cliff while the manufacturer is trying to upsell you a monthly subscription for lane

Yeah, nothing is sped up, their initial deployment of 4.6 is so unbearably slow they are just now offering you the opportunity to pay more for the same experience of 4.5. What's the word for that?

The investors want to cash out, Musk needs lots of money to plow into his latest toy that so far only excels in ridiculing him and sexual harassment/CSAM, so they make a deal to take in xAI and go public. Win win.

Oh, but that doesn't matter. SaaS tools aren't bought by the people that have to use them. Entire groups in big companies (HR & co) are delegating the majority of their job to SaaS and all failures are blamed on the people who

The primary (non malicious, non stupid) explanation given here is batching. But I think you would find looking at large-scale inference the batch sizes being ran on any given rig are fairly static - there is a sweet spot for any given model

Thats what is called an "overly specific denial". It sounds more palatable if you say "we deployed a newly quantized model of Opus and here are cherry picked benchmarks to show its the same", and even that they don'

Oh it is driving inflation alright, inflation for everyone else because OpenAI are buying things like a years supply of DRAM with money they don't even have yet (surely that should be an investigation?).

I suppose its unintentional comedy that they picked a 1080p H264 video playback as the benchmark. Because of course the chip in the Raspberry Pi 1 was literally designed for that! The only thing it asks of you is that you make use of the fi

There is a standard for Gbit over a single pair: Single Pair Ethernet (SPE). But it's more of a rare automotive thing, so I'm also confused how the grandparent made this work.

The answer (as usual) is reinforcement learning. They gave ten idiots some code snippets, and all of them went for the "belt and braces" approach. So now thats all we get, ever. It's like the previous versions that spammed em

As I understand it, you can not actually deploy a fTPM (in embedded and other scenarios) unless you run your own full PKI and have your CA signed off by Microsoft or some other TPM consortium member. So sure the code exists, but it's a
