lol, Jordan Peterson comes to mind

Priorities

US regime’s interference in this discourse is only likely to make the average Australian voter want the reforms even more

Hasn’t Trump murdered most of Iran’s leadership?

Something, something.. rolling in his grave..

Intelligence ended up being an equalising force. Kurzweil kind of predicted this, but SV was too obsessed with total world domination.

Also you don’t want to connect to the pipe and then after the fact find they’ve started diluting arsenic into it.

Time to roll your own

I have this pang too, but for a different reason: everything is moving to the edge, training and inference. Who needs a complicated heterogeneous setup like this when you’re running everything locally?

It should wait for when it can get it for pennies

Air-gap one of my Macs.. thanks for the advice! ;)

The US military can come and separate me from my MacBook and Qwen if it likes. I dare it. Sadly however, I suspect they’re busy with other matters at the moment.

The open models are now good enough. The rest of the world needn’t concern itself with the petty dramas of the colonies any longer

Surely this is great for an end user: the taste as to “when” and to what degree a model should “think” is now entirely in the fine tuners hands

I’m super interested in the opposite experiment.. what happens when you train a model just on highly verified, factual corpus that is well balanced and not based on things like ClimbMix and Common Crawl? My intuition is the unverified/unverifiable goals inherent in a model (eg GPT hacking huggingface) are latent in the 4chan/reddit slop it’s trained on during pretraining.

Keeping SLAs spinning isn’t this trivial

> Providers can just run them, offer cheap tokens, and pocket the margin.

There’s an assumption that you can spin up the infra and acquire customers within that margin

You’re already seeing it. Strategic bilateralism.

The rest of the world would likely side with China. The export ban on Fable wasn’t even extended to five eyes countries.

US is going to find itself isolated and irrelevant. And not a moment too soon.

Hmm.. how many illegal wars has Xi started, just in his most recent term of office?

China is nowhere near as bad as the US at this point. The rest of the world is changing lanes to not be implicated in your car crash of a country.

A sober look at actual rogue nations and their use of AI shouldn’t have us fretting over that particular hemisphere

As grug, I prefer the paste approach

You sir are the salt of the internet

Cratering their user base outside of the US is hardly going to be good for their IPO.

Anyone with these model weights deployed in their territory has this tool in their arsenal.

My agitating prayer is that other nations (even so called US allies) will nationalise what they can (ie model weights already deployed within their jurisdictions). This is the only way to respond to a rogue US administration.

A seminal post

I do wonder if Mojo was a great idea just a little too late to the party. Porting ‘prototypes’ from Python to lower level languages is fairly trivial now with LLMs.

Okay so the module import thing is interesting and feels like 1) it should have been included on day one and 2) might have made Swift more viable for projects like Ladybug

The call is coming from inside the house
