>I can't think of any non-emotive motivation for their actions, and I can see plenty of large downsides.

Epic wants to play the long game. They want the Epic Games store on PC and mobile and Apple is half of mobile. Having an opportunity to become the Steam of mobile is a very valuable proposition, especially given that IOS was apparently less than 10% of Fortnite income.

I see it as the opposeite of emotive; it's a cold calculation playing a very long game with hopes of market capture in a scene where no one else seems to care about premium games (including Epic. But who knows how that will turn out over the decade).
Preferably both. Make it a checkbox for clarity, and animate it for input feedback.
The US military is sometimes discussed as a large and generally competent organization which achieves goals making use of people who may not be top of the class, and many layers of other people checking that everything got done, and verifying that everything got checked. I have wondered if all we're missing for reliable AI is a suitable management layer, also composed of AI.
It’s kind of ironic that the removal of these anti-competitive things actually make the product itself more competitive.

It’s the same with Apple and the AppStore (if they ever actually do this properly). The main complaint about iOS is it’s too restrictive. If you can have an alt AppStore then that makes iOS _better_ not worse.
Tends do get completely obscured and you're back to mental diffing. I know, I know, nothing a bigger checkbox could not solve, but they look weird when you only make them bigger horizontally.
This will probably get buried, but a lot of the GOTCHA! LLM copyright bullshit is "it produces this passage from x book or y article perfectly!"

Meanwhile the complainant (such as GRRM) forgets that often passages from said articles and books are strewn throughout the Internet. Of course chat GPT can drop passages from the GoT books; there's several entire fucking wikis for that franchise that reference passages, quotes, details etc.

Same goes for news articles, passages of which are often quoted by other sources or websites.

Not that chatGPT has reproduced many works in whole, but it's an interesting logic problem for fair use law: if I have copyrighted article X, but websites ABCDEF all quote various passages of my article (ie fair use, critique, etc) and then ABCDEF is used to train an LLM, if the LLM can _reassemble_ the article from quoted passages without referencing article X itself, is it copyright infringement or fair use?

I watched some Dragon Ball on TV as a kid, wasn't a fan at first, until I randomly saw the first or second episode. The beginning is very charming and has such a sense of adventure! I didn't know about Manga at the time, and you couldn't just "binge" TV shows back then. So now I tried to catch every single episode. I think this was the first TV show I saw where time actually passes - unless you were following some soap opera for decades, that wasn't really a thing! At some point there's a gap in time where the characters all go their own ways and then meet again for a big tournament, and the main character actually got a major growth spurt. As far as I remember, that was basically unthinkable in an animated show in the 90s, and to be honest that's still very rare today.

And that's when it felt like I was growing along with the characters in the show. After the next fast-forward, the main character is grown up, has a wife and a kid who looks a bit like he did when we first saw him. From then on, the manga/anime sheds pretty much anything outside its core formula (they fight some monster, lose, train really hard, then crush it) and it's mostly superheroes and monsters flexing and yelling. But teenage me ate it up. "Dragon Ball Z" was quite delayed in my country, and it's difficult to explain why a kid like me got very excited about some anime characters changing their hair colors, and would then download RealPlayer clips of that over ISDN. If you were a teenager at that time, you definitely had a whole bunch of cryptically named DBZ characters in your MSN or ICQ friends list.

On a completely different note, Akira Toriyama just completely redefined action in manga. I know he was pushed to do more martial arts because of the success of things like "Fist of the North Star", but I doubt you got this sense of motion and intensity on a piece of paper before Dragon Ball. Some of that got through in the anime as well, and it was the other main reason I was fascinated by it as a kid.

I am also not a lawyer, but asking if someone is an EU citizen is probably not acceptable in and of itself.

The DMA Chapter 1 Article 1 section 2 makes it clear that the requirement applies to services offered to users “established or located” in the EU.

You can be located in the EU without a residence permit or citizenship perfectly legally (and it’s not even clear whether being LEGALLY located or established in the EU is a requirement).
Switches in the real world tend to snap almost instantly from one end to the other. That is the defining feature of switches – that they don't have a slow transition between the states. This animation stuff isn't realistic, and even if it was that isn't an argument for it.

You're romanticising the creation of literature for some reason.

There's no difference between a machine replacing a human writing a book and a machine replacing a human making a piece of wooden furniture. Literature and craftwork are equally rewarding and beneficial imo.

And people still make wooden furniture by hand even after IKEA. If someone wants cheap and uninteresting they'll buy IKEA, if someone wants an interesting and unique piece, or to support handmade things then they'll buy from a woodworker.

Hmm, users certainly prefer software that's fast, but I don't know about "instantly".

Feedback is important. A button that gently clicks so you know it took effect is better than a touch sensor with no feedback. Animations can serve the same purpose as that click. (And of course they can be overdone, just like a button can be overly stiff or loud.)

While there is a first TCC, the one from this page, the name was used and reused for new manuals, intellectuals sometimes argued that 1000 characters was all that the masses could possibly comprehend/need.

At the end of the Qing dinasty, in particular, when some intellectual and political leaders were preoccupied by bringing "writing to the masses", intellectuals and great (war|) lords participated in the movements but with the sole intention of being understood by the masses without giving them the ability to express themselves. For a range, it's 1897-1911/1912.

It's always a cat and mouse game, isn't it? Industry thinking they can optimize nature's chemistry, then something else always pops out on the other end. When will we shift towards long-term, extensive trials before introducing another chemical in our life cycle?

Is there a possibility that if things could have been more optimal for the delicate balance of different life forms on Earth, nature would have done it all by itself?

Is there even a way to get back to natural state of things? Can the food we produce be considered "natural" at all, or we have altered the chemistry of the whole chain so much that we are now all doomed on this planet to shuffle diseases around different social classes and species ad eternum?

I think it's easier to dismiss risk with this project as it allows democratised access to AI models and furthers research in the field. The ability to generate low-quality content has been available since long before LLM technology, additionally these 70B param models are just barely fitting into $10,000 worth of hardware (not accounting for M-series chips).

The scaling issue with potential runaway AI can be excluded.
The potential for virus writing / security exploitation perhaps but such risks are already present with existing models so this point too can be excluded.
I'm not sure there's any inherent risk here compared to what's easily available with a considerably reduced amount of resource requirements.
The write up here seems concerned with allowing independent and democratised research which is a greater benefit than concentrated efforts.

I liked that you link to renting a dual 24GPU for 0.60cents/hour, but how long could it takes to fine tune a 70b model using your system (4 bits for weights)?

If I were a consumer I would be interested in the final price of fine tuning, for example a table with model size, training size, cost of training, and expected loss of quality with this technology.

One obvious question: Can you apply your technology with the recent (-1,0,1) encoding?, I think you will answers that the (-1,0,1) model is not available and you can't try it, but my question is whether once/if that model is available answer.ai will be able to use the same technology that this post to fine tune a big model in two very small GPUs, and then I should ask for a new table with cost/benefits analysis.

Edited: I should add that I find this kind of work very useful for enhancing individual users like me to be able to compete in the applications of LLM market, this is great work and along the lines of the book "from zero to one" (not that I like or dislike the author) to solve the kind of problem that nobody is trying to solve.

Not really a joke, more PTSD having worked in this space for a few years. "29.97" is what everyone calls it, but the value is exactly 30000/1001 which cannot be represented as a floating point number, so you have to use rational arithmetic when dealing with framerates and timestamps on video (if you care about accuracy), ... and don't get me started on drop-frames, oy!
You wrote a book with an LLM and it has bad dialogue _today_. So why do you act as if all this progress hasn't only been in the last couple years? Fast forward 10 years from now and you think LLMs won't have the capability to write compelling fiction, that what we have then will be exactly what we have now?

Assuming that's what's going on and they've pushed an update that

My point in the above comment is that this is not a civil matter but a
criminal transgression.

Sabotaging the functionality of someones property, either punitively
or as (ransom) leverage, invokes computer misuse. Regardless any
contractual 'excuses' the company offers, that's how this needs to be
prosecuted, and indeed framed in the press.

The issue here isn't specifically about the classification of memory, be it "unified memory," RAM, or VRAM. The primary concern is ensuring there's enough memory capacity for the models required for inference. The real question at hand is the Mac's value proposition in terms of inference speed, particularly for models as large as 70 billion parameters. Utilizing a 4090 GPU can facilitate real-time inference, which is the desired outcome for most users. In contrast, a Mac Studio offers close to real-time inference speeds, which might be disappointing for users expecting a real-time experience. Then, there's the option of CPU + RAM-based inference, which suits scenarios where immediate responses aren't crucial, allowing for batch processing of prompts and subsequent retrieval of responses. Considering the price points of both the Mac Studio and high-end GPUs are relatively comparable, it begs the question of the practicality and value of near real-time inference in specific use cases.

It was this person's ploy to pretend there is extremely valuable IPs in the docs he illegally obtained.

It just shows that this person indeed was clueless about large-scale engineering. I.e., stealing all of the code wont give any org the capability to do large-scale engineering. It most likely would cripple the org, as the foreign objects act as poison.

The ideal trick is to pretend that he possess the secret.
I think it's not such a useful debate. All of the early anime that was popular early on outside of Japan was undoubtedly influential and important part of the popularity of anime outside of the US, but Dragonball Z really had a special spot in that it had pretty large mainstream appeal and aired during normal afternoon blocks on American TV -- while Sailor Moon was known when I was growing up, I remember it being on early morning (06:00) cartoon blocks, so it was kind of out of the way. That isn't to diminish the influence of Sailor Moon, Saint Seiya, etc, but at least in the United States DBZ was a cartoon you talked about at school because "everyone" watched it and was waiting for the rest to be translated and dubbed.

I think that's mostly what the GP meant, and I would agree it was quite significant in this regard.

I had always been fascinated by the NeXT platform, and when it became available for (very expensive configurations of) 80486 PCs I had to try it.
