Hard agree, I keep hoping for the day society awakens as a whole to realize what they're doing to us.

I'm not surprised, I quit because I kept getting pushed this content for a long while and suspected as much. Same is happening on nextdoor for sure, whenever I login there's some pushed post that creates a bunch of engagement of s

There's plenty of value from LLMs, if you treat them as an advanced search engine and auto complete machine like they are. I've used them quite heavily to research things...but these are done best in the hands of skeptical people

I assume they’re selling it at a massive loss to try and stay relevant ?

Working on a music sheet app that takes photos and turns it into a local doc you can play midi on, plenty exist but they all want subscriptions to use them. Trying to see if I can do it with pure local phone processing. Still in PoC Phase.

This was my biggest shock when I decided to publish an app...there's no SLA they just do it whenever they feel apparently. Excitedly publish a very simple app to have it sit in queue for like 6 days was surprising.

It's really depressing to know my own taxes are going to shit like this and feel so helpless to stop it.

Sorry but greed is evil, this is driven by greed.

I'm baffled why Germany would allow this, you'd think they and the rest of Europe would understand the importance of energy independence at this point.

It seems like checks and balances are collapsing so the corruption gets worse, just selling out nature, our health more and more for personal gain until something breaks.

>The US did not 'lose' the majority of the wars it started - it won most of them, and arguably failed to achieve strategic objectives in some. I mean if we look at all recent wars, Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam and now Iran we com

If you start a war in someone else's country and they push you out...they won the war which means the US lost it. Your definition that the country has to be taken over to lose is a very different situation. If you can't accept w

We all know there's something very wrong with this administration and their decision making.

Even if we threw everything at it and turned it into a war economy making everything to focus on this task, we'd lose most of our influence in the rest of the world at that time and then we'd end up in a Russia situation once we c

Well yeah, it's not likely the next person holds this up. It doesnt take much for this type of power to go to someones head and they start making really bad decisions.

I dont think they have a hard time resisting they did it a while ago, my company mandated everyone delete anything Chinese or Chinese derived back in April I think for no reason than "unsafe"

Yeah I have 24 GB Ram on my M4 and am disappointed in the capabilities. You really need a ton of RAM. I can run some basic 8B models fine but they dont do well at all in basic coding stuff I've thrown at them.

Why is this a gap that needs to close? Can you elaborate more than feelings? Right behind these big models are local inference with AMD/Apple having a great hardware start and a lot of local sized models making great progress.

They're growing it in the south Central Valley, not the north and not the east mountains. Though assuming you're referring to snowpack in the mountains and not looking to pump the lakes dry its completely dependent on the years pr
