It's far too expensive for that with how cheap renewables are making electricity. France is already struggling with that.

I mean, the only reason they did it was to be able to comply with the requirements of the test. But the reality is that every once in a while you have a scandal like this or something like Wirecard, and it happens, because the culture is su

German companies, especially old school industrial ones like VW, have a very hard time understanding open platforms. The view everything through the lense of liability and compliance first. Their thinking is that if someone runs their app o

That would imply that the EU has the ability to build its own, competitive AI ecosystem. At the moment, it's mostly just Mistral, and they have been way behind SOTA for a while now. You can't just legislate this into existence, yo

Anthropic spent months going on about how incredibly powerful and dangerous their models are and how access to them needs to be restricted. Now they are getting what they seemingly wanted.

No, it's not. If Debian had a community-maintained repo of additional packages, the same thing could happen there. The fundamental problem is having something that has very loose oversight and next to no controls. That may have worked

Compilers are deterministic and they actually possess domain knowledge of what they are trying to do. AI models are non-deterministic, have no real domain knowledge due to lack of an underlying world model, and their way of "writing&qu

At the end of the day, Microsoft won't care how bad any of this will make them look. Their reputation has been abysmal for decades, but none of it actually seems to have any kind of negative effect on their bottom line.

Shortly followed by: "Sockets are all you need for durable workflows" and then finally "Kernel primitives are all you need for durable workflows." But seriously, part of being a professional is using the right tool for t

I would love to know how much of their internal workflows are being handled by AI workflows. Because this seems like the kind of thing your agent might do.

The point of this was always to explore what is possible with AI as quickly as possible. Obviously, there is going to be a lot of waste, but the 5-10% of employees who are truly thinking about it and discovering novel applications are what

Building a model for predicting the ultimate winner of a US presidential election is particularly difficult, because you are dealing with noisy input data and nonlinear effects, i.e. just a few thousand votes in a few key states can comple

Anthropic have clearly been working towards this since last year when they started focussing more on building products around their models that could be monetised, instead of competing on the most advanced chatbot. IMO this is part of a bro

This is not about money for him, this was always about control. When they wouldn't give him complete control over the project, he pulled out and probably expected OAI to fold without his support. But they survived, and he eventually re

This looks more like it was edited by AI rather than fully written by it. Or they are using a really good humaniser for the second pass.

Trying to trade with generalist LLMs is just an exercise in futility, because none of these models have ever seen the inside of a real trading firm. None of that knowledge is in their training sets.

by this_user 5mo ago
That is exactly the point. It may be wasteful, but it's the fastest way to explore how AI may actually be useful to your business. Even if 80% of employees are just wasting tokens, you still have 20% who are figuring it out.

You are not protecting "normal people". These types of laws are nothing but attempts at rent seeking by dying legacy media companies that were too incompetent to figure out working digital strategies on their own. And they would a

Cohen doesn't even really have the money for his. He doesn't have enough Gamestop shares authorised for the stock portion of his bid, and it is unclear if he can even get the proposed increase to 2.5bn shares voted through - or wh

One argument I have heard in favour of this is that management knew this would be a side effect, but that it's more important to have people engage with AI as much as possible simply to explore what is actually possible. You are effect

You should also mention that Cohen never managed to turn Chewy into a profitable business before selling it off. Similarly, his strategic initiatives at Gamestop have all been failure (e-commerce push, NFTs, digital games platform, crypto i

Didn't they do that? Staples only came in as CEO at the end of 2024, and I assume he has been working on a plan to restructure the company since then. Because their financials are not great, and they have been losing money every year s

The only thing that Cohen has done is shut down stores and cut costs massively at the expensive of revenue. He hasn't really fixed anything, he is just managing their demise. All of his strategic initiatives like expansion of e-commerc
