This is amazing, now waiting for someone to run an llm on the cpu. Eventually it will be LLMs all the way down...
Re:Mythos Finds a Curl Vulnerability on Tuesday May 12, 2026 @03:48AM (#48105407)
Am I missing something here. Not finding a major bug/vulnerability just means that maybe the code is really good, not that the model is not what is claimed?
Re:The current state of LLM-driven development on Monday August 11, 2025 @10:10PM (#44871577)
Would it be more appropriate to compare LLMs to Autotunes rather than pianos?

Akamai CTO Robert Blumofe offers four tips for business leaders striving to foster AI fluency by empowering employees with the right tools and best use cases.

useful insights but definitely a PR article.

Great. I enjoy these kind of articles. My all time favorite book for 'C' is Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets.
As I understand, the LLM uses the techniques of searchformer - https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.14083. To do "slow thinking" doing a A* search using a transofrmer.
Re:$2 H100s: How the GPU Rental Bubble Burst on Friday October 11, 2024 @12:03AM (#41805991)
It is not just MSRP, management and operations cost too. The article goes into the details of this.
Re:$2 H100s: How the GPU Rental Bubble Burst on Thursday October 10, 2024 @11:57PM (#41805949)
The details are in the article. They have done the math.
Re:$2 H100s: How the GPU Rental Bubble Burst on Thursday October 10, 2024 @10:49PM (#41805550)
TLDR: Don’t buy H100s. The market has flipped from shortage ($8/hr) to oversupplied ($2/hr), because of reserved compute resales, open model finetuning, and decline in new foundation model co’s. Rent instead.

Is the AI infra bubble already bursting?

The screen seems to be stuck at Wait a second... for me.
Re:Reflection 70B, the top open-source model on Friday September 06, 2024 @09:20PM (#41470901)
I tried a few local LLMs. None of them could give me the right answer for "How many 'r's in straberry. All LLMs were 8-27B.
Re:Looming Liability Machines (LLMs) on Saturday August 24, 2024 @09:42PM (#41343607)
I know you mean this in jest, but we are much closer to this than we would imagine, the use of LLMs to process communication / translation is becoming ubiquitous. We are 1 bad translation away from a disaster.

I also use some email providers ability to have +xyz at the end of the username. So for a registration I would for [email protected]. has helped me track spam and leaks in the past.
Re:Llama 3.1 in C on Wednesday July 24, 2024 @01:19AM (#41053839)
Cool. I will try it out. I tried the same with ollama, the non english part needs a lot more polish. Do you see the outcome being any different?

This is pretty awesome. How did you do it? Any blog on the detials?
Re:Mistral NeMo on Thursday July 18, 2024 @08:04PM (#41000896)
The model description on huggingface says - Model size - 12.2B params, Tensor type - BF16. Is the Tensor type different from the training param size?
Re:Mistral NeMo on Thursday July 18, 2024 @08:01PM (#41000885)
I just checked huggingface and the model files download is about 25GB but in a comment below someone mentioned it is 8fp quantized model. Trying to understand how the quantization affects the model (and RAM) size. Can someone please enlighten.
Re:Mistral NeMo on Thursday July 18, 2024 @12:03PM (#40997003)
isn't it 2 bytes (fp16) per param. so 7b = 14 GB+some for inference?
Re: on Monday July 15, 2024 @10:29AM (#40968186)
The title does not do justice to the article. It talks about a new classification system that OpenAI has introduced for LLMs
Re:ThankYouHN: 14 Years on Friday June 07, 2024 @12:11AM (#40605266)
Same here. Coincidentally I joined in June 2009 and this is the only social media I indulge in.
The articles states the case is for apple's monopoly in the premium phone market. Yet it compares the market share with low cost android phones.
I have experience using the Motofone - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_Fone . It was not the best of experience especially due to the lag which many have mentioned here. E-Ink displays have come a long way, hoping this time it is a better experience.

Came across this book today. Good introduction and deep dive into ML.
