If the variety of foods you consume is the diversity of your diet, how can a diet that willfully excludes a large number of possible choices be more diverse? Whatever diversity you think your diet has, add meat and eggs and it's more diverse.

So you'd rather have a giant industrial facility with vats where people toil away in artificial light, than a beautiful natural field with wild grasses and animals who get to enjoy living a portion of their natural existences? Pretty ironic to think that to save cows from suffering, vegans would cause cows to become nearly extinct.
I'd be wary of claiming this. Dutasteride suppresses all three 5A-reductases, while finasteride only suppresses two.

Seems like quite the blunder - maybe Tesla thinks they can add LIDAR to their own fleet of robo-taxis. Otherwise they bet the future of the company pretty foolishly.
Now, I have no idea.

How much capability would $3.2bn in terms of AI computing power provide, including the operational and power costs of the cluster?

Certainly, you could build a "$3.2bn GPU cluster", but it would be dark.

So, how much learning time would $3.2bn provide? 1 year? 10 years?

Just curious about hand wavy guesses. I have no idea the scope of the these clusters.
Arm chair take here. Probably means nothing. On the scale of earthquakes and larger geology, this is insignificant.

Look at the White Island eruption a few years back. If you are on the island it was an awful event. But in terms of eruption scale it was so small it barely registered.

Is it a surprise that different sports have different cultures?

In hockey you'd never see the sort of diving that you see in soccer. You'd be laughed off the ice.

In soccer you'd never see the sort of casual violence after the whistle that you see in hockey. You'd be kicked off the field.

If you weren't willing to play with people who will fake an injury, you wouldn't play soccer.

If you weren't willing to play with people who will take physical shots at you, you wouldn't play hockey.

if you weren't willing to be around doping... you wouldn't go into professional cycling.

So once a sport gets that sort of reputation, of course it persists. The reputation causes the problem, the problem causes the reputation.
He did say he considers the "woke mind virus" to be a bigger threat to humanity than climate change. So I think he's being consistent even if it hurts him and his shareholders.

> You don't want to store two dates for an event. It's easier to store the start time of the event and a duration for the event.

Frankly speaking you could store all three (begin, end, duration) and just use whatever you need for different purposes. Just introduce a single point of entry/update that keeps alternative representations in sync.

I still don't quite follow. If Meta were to provide all code required to train a model (it sounds like they don't), and they provided the code needed to query the model you train to get answers how is that not open source?

> Deliberately obfuscated source code is not allowed. Intermediate forms such as the output of a preprocessor or translator are not allowed.

This definition actually makes it impossible for any LLM to be considered open source until the interpretability problem is solved. The trained model is functionally obfuscated code, it can't be read or interpreted by a human.

We may be saying the same thing here, I'm not quite sure if you're saying the model must be available or if what is missing is the code to train your own model.

Raising animals for meat is not energy inefficient. Those cows control the grasses and help with natural succession of trees and shrubs, while fertilizing the soil and providing nutrients for many animals. It costs literally nothing to leave a cow in a field, and it makes the field better.

What's energy inefficient is trying to grow a thousand cows in a feedlot.

Interesting - however, they do have a financial position that may make it easier for them to pivot than some of the other manufacturers in addition to their consumer image that makes it easy to raise money in the form of EV reservations. They don’t seem to be in a super strong position either way.
Release the training set and the code that was used to train the model, or stop calling it open source.

If you can't fork it and take the project in your own direction, it's not open source.

I agree.

> ” others want to try building things and only once they hit the wall, figure out the background”

I am exactly this type as a software developer. I am ok that I won’t be a computer scientist, nor a very senior engineer working for a state of the art company. Still, I enjoy developing software. I like the daily activity of writing code. Be it a personal project to learn stuff or learning new things at work.

It is kind of limiting in a way (I will never expand the body of human knowledge in software development), but that’s ok for me. It’s liberating in other dimensions too (I am always creating new, if simple, stuff).

Listen directly to people, and ignore what is said about them by others. Podcasts are great at letting people air out their thoughts and show you who they really are.
Thanks!

We do not support running notebooks locally right now, but offline access is coming soon.

With regards to running code on high-end GPUs: currently, we manually allocate GPUs to our customers when they need that. Still, we do want to eventually allow people to connect to their cloud providers to spin-up compute instances there.
Did you go to all of the trouble of writing that comment because you wanted us to laugh at you? All of those people are clearly in that position because they are business owners.

Granted, Catz seems to have recently sold off a large stake of her ownership. But the cash proceeds of that sale still came from being the owner at one point, not from a salary. Nobody becomes a billionaire off a regular paycheque.

Hell, even FAANG software developer compensation is really only notable because the total package includes becoming an owner of the company. The wage portion isn't that much different than any other random tech company.

I think it will be worth it, but we can't just assume that such a medicine will be available for everyone, or ignore the effects it will have on society.

Many medicines and treatments we have today are already basically available only to the wealthy.

Many prominent billionaires are on record spreading overpopulation FUD and anti-natalism, while having multiple children themselves.

In theory - I agree that having some kind of anti-aging treatment that is available for everyone would be awesome, but in practice it could end up as immortality for the very few, while making the vast majority worse off.

You -should- be able to just mandate Hubs and cranks to get around this.

Or make sponsors provide a 'slew' of wheels and cranksets for all their riders (i.e. spares as well) that can get inspected before the race, and are randomly distributed between the riders sponsored.

I think we've seen no evidence that data is to blame.

So perhaps just its existence is to blame.

> The driver architecture is the lesser evil here

Except if the crash had been limited to the driver, it would have left the machine running unprotected which is far greater an evil.
My guess is that the very minimum they do is cut files in small blobs and analyze each one separately, so that kind of scheme (or adding random junk at the beginning or the middle or zipping it or ...) doesn't work.
I understand, I couldn't scratch my head to think of dark design patterns done by big companies nowadays when it comes to UX.

I tried searching for it but didn't find much. You have any links?
Surely traditional “open source” also needs some notion of a reproducible build toolchain, otherwise the source code itself is approximately useless.

Imagine if the source code was in a programming language of which the basic syntax and semantics were known to no one but the original developers.

Or more realistically, I think it’s a major problem if an open source project can only be built by an esoteric process that only the original developers have access to.
Thank you for the background. For those with the knee-jerk reaction without the full story, this case was based on a whistleblower providing allegations to the FBI.

The whistleblower provided evidence of a contract between the professor and a Chinese university. The FBI investigation collaborated that evidence, including fifteen trips to China in three years. That is why this case was brought to trial.

He was not exonerated on the false statements charge. Instead, the appeals court found it was immaterial by a 2-1 decision.

This professor got a doctorate from Princeton and did a postdoc at Berkeley. He knew the rules for working on NSF and DOE grants. He didn't deserve all the happened to him, but he did lie and cover-up his connections with a Chinese university.

Not an unreasonable thing to say. I did provide data to back up my point of view so folks are at least free to disagree on the details rather than just the high-level take.
It's hard to take Macbeth seriously as a history... what with the witches and all. His source is a piece of propaganda that makes Richard III look like a documentary.

As a drama, the fact that the Macbeths appear to have zero children is very important. Fathers and sons are recurring themes -- Duncan's rebuff of Macbeth as the next King, Macduff and his son, Siward and Young Siward, etc.

The absence of a descendant for Macbeth is evocative, especially given Lady Macbeth's line that she has "given suck". It doesn't get a lot of attention past that one, but it appears that within the context of the play, they had a child who died young.

These are facts about the play that inform an actor and director making character choices. They're free to ignore them and focus on other things. (Honestly, it's not clear that Shakespeare really thought that through, either.)
It should be noted for some reason OpenAI prices GPT-4o-mini image requests at the same price as GPT-4o. I have a similar library but we found OpenAI has subtle OCR inconsistencies with tables (numbers will be inaccurate). Gemini Flash, for all its faults, seems to do really well as a replacement while being significantly cheaper.

Here’s our pricing comparison:

*Gemini Pro*
- $0.66 per 1k image inputs (batch)
- $1.88 per text output (batch API, 1k tokens)
- 395 pages per dollar

*Gemini Flash*
- $0.066 per 1k images (batch)
- $0.53 per text output (batch API, 1k tokens)
- 1693 pages per dollar

*GPT-4o*
- $1.91 per 1k images (batch)
- $3.75 per text output (batch API, 1k tokens)
- 177 pages per dollar

*GPT-4o-mini*
- $1.91 per 1k images (batch)
- $0.30 per text output (batch API, 1k tokens)
- 452 pages per dollar

To modern ears it sounds like a word order chosen by someone whose first language is completely outside of the Romance/Germanic language families that English straddles.

Usage is king though, if a few major influencers started choosing this format on a regular basis then it could probably become normalized in a few years. You'd go from bristling to reluctantly using it to not thinking about it any more.
Correct but it's still a deterrent to a conventional invasion even if it doesn't deter a nuclear first strike. Japan and South Korea are nuclear threshold states and that would factor into China's decision making.

Nuclear proliferation is the main reason I am pessimistic about nuclear power as the main global solution to decarbonizing. I don't think a world with 200 threshold nuclear states is a good idea, nor would that be in the interests of any of the major powers, most smaller countries should be aiming for a 100% renewables grid.
That's the creators' share of ad revenue, and Google pays it out only after it has earned the money. If the video doesn't get views, the creators get nothing. It's the same as Google putting ads on your website. You get a share of the revenue, but that doesn't mean Google paid for the site.
They spammed your contacts list in the early years. All my coworkers have detailed job history peddled by various data brokers who scraped or bought the data from LI. That is a significant security threat if you are a worthwhile spear phishing target to a state level actor.

Ah. I have a profile because it seemed like the professional thing to do to get professional jobs, etc.

However, I only have about 100 connections mostly because I feel weird about adding people on any social network. Which I know is weird, but, I am. But I only add people I personally know or have a good reason for trying to connect with me.

And now you're saying that's basically worthless. Which, sure, I'll buy that. My LinkedIn hasn't really provided me with much worth.

But, what I'm curious about is why the number of connections is important? Is it just a measure of potential engagement/reach etc. like any other social media network?
Open Source project suggestions for space, flight?
That is not how any technology works, let alone literal bleeding edge technology, unless you mean Tesla will just scrap their technology and then just buy it from Waymo.

Assuming SpaceX can make reusable rockets, it seems like a matter of time until Blue Origin is able to achieve the same, no? I can’t see why SpaceX should be able to do it but Blue Origin should not given enough time.

Assuming Microsoft can make a desktop operating system, it seems like a matter of time until IBM is able to achieve the same, no? I can’t see why Microsoft should be able to do it but IBM should not given enough time.

See how ridiculous that sounds. Serious technological R&D is not something you can just pick up off the ground with money and time.
Yeah because history isn't absolutely littered with examples of shiny things being dangled in front of people with the intent to entrap them /s.

Can you really say this model will still be useful in 2 years, 5 years for you? And that FB's stance on these models will still be open source at that time once they incrementally make improvements? Maybe, maybe not. But FB doesn't give anything away for free, and the fact that you think so is your blindness, not mine. In case you haven't figured it out, this isn't a technology problem, this is a "FB needs marketshare and it needs it fast" problem.
I'm pretty sure she isn't. I take it as more of a research effort into highly classified areas of the government. She doesn't really push a narrative IMO.
I notably remembered a story that ran across several vlogs of some guy that went to an american company to have his patented invention put on the shelves. They'd handle manufacturing and all that in cooperation with a chinese manufacturer.
The deal fell trough.
Later he found the deal on the shelves in wallmart. Made in china. The original company or at least the people that answered acted like they didn't know of anything but he dug deep and found that no.... He wasn't being cheated out of his IP by some chinese manufacturer that ran with the design. That factory had no clue that they were breaking any law. The original American company had gone behind his back.

I also remember similar stories about crying of backstabbing and IP theft in China from some US company that was kickstarting. (I don't remember if it was an actual kickstarter campaign or bigger money involved)
Turns out some later digging showed their bs was the clear reason for the broken ties and they had signed off IP and sales rights to try and squeeze out a cheaper deal. (If they suddenly reneged on their large orders the chinese manufacturer could sell the stock themselves and continue with the new dies they'd made and machine they'd bought for the deal)

It's real damn easy to pin everything on china with the language and distance barrier and they definitely do some heinous shit but disappointingly often enough it seems like our own doing here in Europe or the US coated in stereotypes or geopolitical rhetoric.
You're never going to get a textbook out of an LLM, or a chapter, or a page. Big-IP lawyers probably spend weeks engineering prompts to find enough stuff that comes out un-paraphrased. Poems and lyrics, maybe.

The legal test for fair use considers "the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole." In this case it's the portion regurgitated near-verbatim, since paraphrasing and summarizing is fair use. You can write Cliff Notes without the author's permission.

LLMs are probably capable of failing the fair use tests for less than 0.1% of the stuff they're exposed to.

I think it's fine to encourage beginners to engage with the internals of an API and do things that are unwise. The goal is educated pupils, not successful or maintainable projects. Let them play in the mud and get dirty. I think the idea that code is something that can be experimented with is one of the most valuable lessons, and breaking things is frequently the path to learning how they work.

Maintainability is one of the finer points that can come later.
