If they can train the classifier to have fewer false positives that would be great.

This kind of pun is standard for The Register but yes, it is confusing.

Weren't T1s running 576 MTU back then?

No, because it's already against the TOS.

It's much larger but fundamentally it's not that different. In each rack you have one or two switches. How do you connect those racks to each other? The standard answer (simplified) is centralized spine switches but AWS discovered

I don't think these things have anything to do with each other.

It's a matter of interpretation. From the DMA's perspective, the iPhone is a market and thus Apple has a monopoly on that market. Likewise they consider MS to have monopoly control of the Windows market.

It would either lead to Vista-style constant UAC prompts or having to give blanket access upfront (which would be abused).

Apple is providing a level of privacy far beyond what the laws require. It would be easy if they only wanted to comply with GDPR and DMA.

The new Siri isn't available in China yet either.

No, it's TLS to a "sealed" confidential VM that Google has no access to.

I don't see anyone making that argument and we shouldn't allow it. The "temporary" generators are bad enough.

I see it as a hedge against NIMBYs. If terrestrial data centers literally can't be built then orbital is cheaper by definition. If not, just don't build them.

Intel and Nvidia are responsible for enforcing their privacy features. The cloud operator (Google in this case) has no access to any data.

I think the keys are directly from Nvidia and Intel.

Apparently it's now a Google model run by Apple on GPUs rented from Google.

So there's someone to sue if the app misbehaves.

They're IPOing a commercial subsidiary of OpenAI so that it can donate even more money to the parent nonprofit. (Actually the subsidiary is everything and the nonprofit is a do-nothing fig leaf but the IRS and Congress seem to not care

Did they think that the trillion-dollar companies would become some sort of Che Guevara style insurgents... Arguably this plan is mostly working for Apple.

That would be a good argument to take to the EU.

That sounds like a false dichotomy. You want opinionated software? Great, so do I. Design the software, own your decisions yourself, and explain your thinking without shortcuts.

Elon says Grok models are being trained right now. (Unless I missed an update.) For whatever reason these training runs are not using xAI's full GPU capacity. Short of a miracle or time machine it sounds like there is nothing more they

I tune out at this "what Steve Jobs would have done" talk. A thing needs to stand on its own without borrowing Steve Jobs (or Jeff Dean as I saw someone do the other day).

Because Apple has Private Cloud Compute tech that other vendors do not have.

People keep saying Gemini but it's not clear that the models are Gemini. They might be separate models.

No, Siri runs on Apple Silicon.

Apple Private Cloud Compute is running on M2/M3 Ultra. I'm not sure if Gemini Flash can fit in that amount of RAM.
