Should everyone have access to guns too? I ask because there seems to be a disconnect where a lot of people who live in countries with gun control don’t want AI offensive capabilities to be regulated. I presume your country doesn’t have AI

Keep in mind these downloadable models use 3-10x the amount of tokens as well. You really can’t beat a couple $20 subscriptions. https://quesma.com/benchmarks/babaisbench/

If you have been using cloud hosted models, you will be severely disappointed with what you’d be able to run on 16GB VRAM. You will spend most of your time fighting with the model to fix its mistakes.

Why would they not apply to all models? The models with downloadable weights aren’t “open”. Meaning no one can actually give a summary about their training content and security. Which is what they’re asking US labs.

The article only lists US labs, I wonder if that was an oversight. Chinese models are also available to Europeans through API providers. Surely they risk fines too.. right?

Countries that aren’t competitive need access to training datasets so that they may train their own similarly capable models and be sure of the inputs. Governments cannot blindly trust open weight models from China and the US.

Thats only important if running it locally is critical for privacy reasons or just as a hobby. Time has a cost in business. If a model needs 30 million tokens to achieve a similar result as another that can do it in 10 million, that 60 toke

Evangelical Christians are the target audience. They are strong supporters of Israel because of their interpretation of the bible.

Both propriety and open weight models are closed source. Open source would include training data so anyone could train a similarly capable model.

Such as? There are alternatives to almost anything you can think of already. All popular sites and services have clones. What more do you want? The issue I think you’ll run into is that they’re lacking users and kind of just worse versions.

I have no doubt companies like Microsoft, Amazon, and Google will rush to give them all the data they want in order to keep those government contracts flowing.

Muse 1.1 performed relatively well according to benchmarks, putting it within spitting distance of the premier models. However, based on the results I got from it and the review videos I watched, it wasn’t even close. Opus 5 is incredible a

The comment I replied to was comparing numbers released by each lab, and they made a typo with that specific benchmark.

They are slaps on the wrists AND shake downs. The fines aren't to 'correct' bad behavior. Look at the EU delivery apps being found to participate in a cartel. They received a large fine but still allowed to keep what they gai

Wow. So this is what a codebase looks like if you just had "come up with 3 improvements" running in a loop. TempleOS was more sane than whatever this is.

OpenAI's Zero Data Retention claim held up in court. They were unable to produce prompts and outputs because they were never retained. I believe that is only available through Enterprise API for both Anthropic and OpenAI.

Yes. I've since watched a couple review videos on YouTube and all the game tests I've seen Opus 5 produce are incredible even compared to Fable.

It's definitely not benchmaxxing from my experience with it. I have a test I use on all the models to create a game and Opus 5 feels like a generational leap compared to the rest. Benchmarks don't paint an accurate picture, you ha

Random people? No. Governments and big corporations? Yes. It removes any concern of "backdoors", and is currently the best starting point for your own model which will be as capable as k3.

I'm not sure why you're so dismissive about this model. It isn't currently open, but it will be. It was slow when I used it so i'll give you that. There will be other providers with better performance. My only gripe was
