I will be honest with you.
Companies just want an excuse to layoff people. Don't give one to them.
Just use whatever machine they give you and buy yourself a new Linux machine.
Open weight models are the present.
Sorry, but it is true.
Post a fact about how bad is the far right, including the current US administration, and it will be flagged.
Post a fake news about how good is the far right, including the current US administration, and it will be right on the front page, no matter how much you downvote or flag.
Because this is not a neutral ground.
This site is owned by far-right aligned people and they censor everything that makes them look bad.
This is not a bug, it's a feature.
To get the same nutrition, you need to buy twice.
You lose, the industry wins.
I people accept that is beyond my level.
Trump and Putin are sides of the same coin.
Reliance on any of them is not just a risk, is a tragedy waiting to happen.
Yes, it is. The rich get richer, and the poor get poorer, until there is nothing left to the poor.
It doesn't matter how big you grow the pie if a few people take everything for them and leave just leftovers for everybody else.
AI already grew the pie, but the system is rigged, and the same people are taking the new pieces of pie.
Usually large corporations been sued are the result of public pressure, which only happens in a few cases, but anyway, been successfully sued is nothing to them.
What are millions of dollars in fines when you are a multi billionaire corporation? It is just a rounding error in your account, it does not prevent corporations and any other member of the elite to follow the law.
The answer to this question is very simple, and yet extremely unconfortable: the law is for common people, not for the elite.
The elite is permited to do whatever they want without consequences. Consequences are for common people, so they can behave the way elite want.
AI doesn't need regulations, but the owners of AI do.
I have 2 questions:
- there are companies offering serverless functions on their platforms, powered by Deno Deploy. Can this acquisition be an attempt to kill competition?
- Cloudflare now owns a huge chunck of JavaScript ecosystem, like Vercel. They are buying like countries that are arming themselves for war. What is the strategy here?
Their business is not sustain, so they need to IPO now to pay the early investors and transfer their debts to the new investors.
It's all about this, but people refuse to think about it, they prefer to think AI will become Skynet instead.
Elon Musk learned from the other two and many others. Unfortunately, Silicon Valey techno-feudalism is built to last.
> Instead their big push right now is preventing others from catching up.
This!
Their IPO is getting closer, but the Chinese models catching up will ruin it, so they want government to stop the competition.
The law doesn't apply to the orange king.
AI won't kill ALL humans, but will be used to kill a large number of a very specific kind of humans, the humans that billionaires don't like.
What AI labs are doing is constructing a narrative that AI could be dangerous, so when they actually press the button to mass kill humans, the remaining humans will blame the AI, not the people who pressed the button.
Probably. I had a problem yesterday, now fixed.
AI is aligned with business values, which we already know are not aligned with human values.
Debian lost its way long time ago when they voted for systemd.
This is so cheap to them. Why should they comply with the law when it is so cheap to them not doing so?
There will be no underclass, because the ultra rich will simply let them die.
Class equalizer? Almost anyone on the planet connected?
What is your planet?
Your planet is absolutely not Earth.
But that is the point, Big Pharma wants to sell pills.
Meta is one of the worst corporations in the world. Nothing they do benefits the society. Stop using their products.
