I don't see how that's incompatible with wanting your access revoked on termination to avoid accusations of wrongdoing.

Corruption, as in individuals working in their own interest in a way that best provides them power and/or lines their pockets, is different than a grand conspiracy that a large percentage of that state is working together on a secret p

Right, but are those going to run on Apple-owned hardware at all? It seems like Apple will first prioritize their models running on-device, then their models running on Apple Silicon servers, and then bail out to ChatGPT API calls specifica

If your goal was wanting to use AI image generation to create such an image, this makes sense. I think people are just questioning the assumption that such a feature is a desirable or necessary feature of a weather display. I definitely was

The thing it has learned previously needs to apply to the next run. If you train an ML model on thousands of attempts at going around some racetracks where touching the walls slows you down, and the score is achieved by executing a fast lap

Humans train simultaneously as they operate, and humans can see the message about the full moon. If nobody includes the full moon message as input to the ML model, and tries to operate the ML model with the training it has achieved running

Nice, I hadn't heard of that but yeah I think that's a much better system than employer group plans. If more of the market went that way, insurers would have to actually compete at a consumer level and not just offer "go away

Sure, the employer is doing what is best for them in the current system. Everyone is. But the results can be rough for real people to actually live with. One of the big scary talking points when politicians start talking about changing our

And it’s great how your employer can change which insurance provider they offer every year and along with it your coverage, provider network, prescription costs, etc. Sometimes even more frequently than once per year if an acquisition takes

If you're in the EU that should be possible, although the software is still limited to using Apple's public approved APIs since Apple still has a security notarization process software can be installed from third-party sources.

They've been selling ARM Surface devices for a while now. Not sure why these would suddenly fall over and stop working. Even if the AI stuff doesn't pan out that doesn't make it e-waste, that just makes it a normal PC that co

Yep. Even taking SpaceX off the table, we could have built a lunar program based on existing launchers like the Atlas and Delta class of rockets, using smaller modules docked in orbit, and orbital refueling. Instead we have a giant rocket t

The whole context of this article and post is Apple using their own chips on the server for AI tasks. The “stopgap” is using the existing M2 Ultra for this, versus a chip specifically designed for AI server duty. I don’t think the person yo

What does the base 8GB RAM option have to do with how Apple will spec their servers? The M2 Ultra supports up to 196GB of RAM in the products Apple offers it in.

> Tesla has just now got around to What's the source that they haven't ordered from Luminar previously? They have definitely used Lidar test rigs for years.
592.
by stetrain 2y ago
Because $1000 of Lidar hardware per car would be $1.85 billion per year.

by stetrain 2y ago
As far as I know Musk and Tesla's position on this hasn't changed. They use Lidar for validation during R&D, they don't ship it on production vehicles.
594.
by stetrain 2y ago
They produced 1.85 million vehicles in 2023. So a $2 million order would work out to $1.08 per car. Or if Lidar hardware for one car cost about $500, then $2 million is not quite enough for one day's worth of manufacturing output.
