What I wrote happened. It's not "fake news". What remains to be seen is which polling stations remained open and which did not. This election may need to be annulled.
Lula used a justice he appointed to order polling stations to stay open past the agreed upon deadline without consulting the courts that are supposed to rule on election matters. That's election interference. I'm not convinced the population is going to see him as legitimate after that stunt.
People learning a new language do not need frontier intelligence in a foreign language. They need to learn how to speak conversationally at low cost. That's one of the things this does better than LLMs.
Nevermind the legal liabilities, how is their company viable with this sort of brand damage? Their other business lines aren't making toasters. It's the same line of work. They sell trust.
What are their nuclear codes? 123? I'm not joking. This is mortifying.
4? Unbelievable incompetence.
I nominate "Boaty McBoatface".
They combined all of the things that Formula 1 should never have restricted in one car. Damn impressive.
This should have been the OP.
I had a similar experience after taking a many, many year break from dentists.
The first wanted to give me a root canal surgery and over 15 fillings. No thanks.
The second wanted to give me 8 filings, sell me an expensive bite guard for tooth grinding, which the first dentist did not bring up, and give me a fluoride treatment. No thanks.
The third dentist gave me 3 filings, said nothing about tooth grinding, and recommended a water flosser.
I got the three filings, bought a 'rest in peace' nightguard from amazon, started using conical hydroxyapatite toothpaste and a water flosser, and am taking another break from dentists! When I go again, I'll go to the third one. I found it impossible to figure out which is which from "reviews".
>Objects can also become cues that activate memories, momentarily bringing them back into focus.
Which is why we don't throw them away!
The thing most people here don't understand: all CEOs are sales people, and only some of them are technical.
Do you have a quantum computer from the future and a file of passwords that haven't been changed in 50 years? Complete nonsense.
The second order effects of what you are suggesting are a total surveillance state.
Watermarking sounds like a good idea, but it's not. Token drift from watermarking will degrade the quality of outputs and could allow clever people to circumvent guardrails.
You should assume all text is AI generated. If you want to "test" someone at school or during an interview, have them write with a pencil and paper.
Then why haven't they caught all of the obvious foreign fraud rings that people on youtube keep uncovering? It's egregious. You would think with their total data access, AI, and Utah datacenter they could at least create a target list for the FBI.
That article is a bit myopic. People and companies don't want to feed all of their ideas, projects, and intellectual property to a morally unscrupulous oligopoly. We learned that lesson the hard way with the last batch of tech monopolies, and the shift towards majority open weight models proves the trend.
Open weight classifiers and open weight LLMs will be burned onto silicon cards in a few years after the models begin to stabilize. They'll be in PCs and laptops. That's going to capture a HUGE chunk of the market.
If you need more horsepower, you'll rent the same silicon safely from AI services cloud providers without handing your data over to Anthropic and OpenAI.
That headline is tabloid tier bs. They haven't established anything close to causation. Do better, science.org.
These companies are effectively high-tech plagiarism factories run by CEOs who are competing viciously. Look at their past actions. No, of course you can't!
That's next level masochism.
My concern with this analysis is that the headline "conclusions" depend on a proprietary composite index and assumptions. Where are the underlying data and methodologies for independent evaluation?
I was also surprised by how little attention the analysis gives to China and India. It's like measuring the smoke from a candle while standing next to two forest fires. The real-world impact is to decimate the economies of Europe while industry moves to China and India, who have no meaningful guardrails at all, making the claimed problem worse.
Be careful what you wish for.
The system works because it runs on human ambition. If people in power handed their control to an AI there wouldn't be companies and mergers anymore. It wouldn't make sense. That world could be great or it could be dystopian.
Hello to the new app store and "Nvidia model approval process".
Better headline: Developers prove they have no idea or appreciation for what a CEO does.
Unlikely, but say goodbye to uncensored and abliterated models.
These acquisitions are not healthy. They stifle competition and make it easier for governments to censor open weight models by choking off distribution points.
Were you using the full model or a quantized version, and what harness/configuration were you using?
It sounds like you were using a quant model.
The problem is the FDA's pathetic throughput times. It takes them decades to approve drugs. Blood tests take 1-2 years on average. It's a huge bottleneck. If they could turn these things around faster and work iteratively, it would be different.
