I mean working with open weights and in the future, creating their own open source models from the ground up. At the moment, that's not reasonable, but I'm leaving the door open for when/if there's a break through in training that greatly reduces the costs of training new models.
Right now, LoRA can give amazing results with small models.
What I mean by this, will Open Source own the creating of amazing models and cause companies like OpenAI and Anthropic to focus on verticals?I know there's a high costs right now for training models, but I'm sure innovation will change this long term.
I could be totally wrong.
If you're doing fine tuning, how are you curating or creating your training data? If you're doing distillation what tools? Share you're experience.That includes you PewDiePie; Felix Kjellberg.
If people who feel like terminating their life, got help, I strongly believe there was be a large drop in suicide.
Don't rush it.
We all heard it's a permanent solution to a temporary problem and so many other quotes. I've lost a lot of people growing up to suicide and the impact it has on those who continue to live on that you love is traumatic.
The man who raised me like I was his son told my mother that he would never commit suicide. He had stage 4 cancer that eventually took his life on my 17th birthday. His reason for enduring through the pain was to teach me that suicide is never the answer because it hurts all those around you.
Although he passed away on my 17th birthday of his illness, he forever changed my life in so many ways. Each and every day I aim to be a better man because of how he loved me.
Please take a moment to utilize this time you have to change those around you. You don't need to create a massive company, be a CEO, have a career people admire, etc.. all you need to do is be someone that inspires others to improve like John did for me.
What do you think will be the hot trend in 2027 with on-device AI?
I always come back to this man and it ... no pun intended.. really blows my mind.

The best part about HackerNews, is that you get a very good sense of the envious and jealous nature of people. A lot of the "hate" or "angry" comments, are basically people who hate their relationship with "work".
To the author, I think you'll continue that process of being useful, but you'll see that in this new world, you're usefulness now scales..
A quick write up since I see so many people who don't know the difference. Now that AI is writing a lot more code, I wanted to share something useful for humans.In HTML, div and span are fundamental elements but differ in their roles due to display behavior and use cases. A div is a block-level container (display: block) that takes up the full width of its parent and starts on a new line,...
How are you preparing data, what challenges do you face, how do you generate data at scale (using LLMs to create synthetic data for instance).Curious minds what to know :)
One thing I loved about Bob, is regardless of what he built, who he knew or worked with, you would never see him lean on that to express who he was..
Bob was just a real person with a passion for programming and helping people.
Looking back on my time knowing Bob, I do regret not taking him up on his offer to work with him. I could only imagine how I would have grown as a person by working closely with him.
I do want to say, Bob clearly had a consistency in his style of clothing. It didn't changed over the years.. lol
It all still seems unreal.
He has two adorable little girls; 1.5 years old and 2 months.
His kids are pretty calm, by most standards.. but you can't let the older one out of sight for a few seconds.
I certainly feel your pain even though I don't have kids.
Question: Tell me how much you love going to the bathroom or getting washed now. It's the only time you have to yourself lol
Item #4 - I fully disagree. Some choices are scary to actually make, but are healthy. For instance, my mom stayed with her abusive husband for many years because she had Stockholm syndrome. If you had asked her why didn't she leave during that time, she would say "I didn't have a choice". Ask her now, and she will tell you "Fear - fear of not knowing how things would work out."
Sometimes the hardest choices to make are the impossible choices.
I was taken back because I never thought Austin would have such a problem.
Once I finish this case, I think it's time to go back to water and coffee for 6 months. :)
When I relocated back east, I made it a point to a) not live in the city since it'll be overpriced and I won't be able to enjoy the surrounding area and b) Price per square footage wouldn't make sense if I'm at home 24/7. So I went across the river and pay less for _a lot more_.
I know a lot of people are moving to Austin TX. They get a LOT more for their money. I was lucky to be on a month by month lease when the pandemic hit.
