That is largely because no one has bothered to build anything remotely close to IG in the last 5+ years besides maybe TikTok. And even then, TikTok is more of an apples and oranges…

My thing about ExploitGym in particular is that it's testing environment varies depending on the exploit. From what I've read, it tends to favor userspace sandboxing inside Docker …

Qwen HAS to be a part of the discussion here, even though Microsoft is a US based entity. Their 30b MoE models absolutely hit way above their weight when paired with the right harn…

Because they're stupid and only buys stuff that's "safe". Because nobody gets fired for buying IBM.

Intel could position their cards as strong for certain workloads. They had AV1 support first in market, for example.

Thunderbolt is really an unsung hero here. It is surprisingly nice to be able to move various components around my desk that would have otherwise sat in a huge tower hogging all th…

You don’t need it if you use llamacpp on Windows, or if you compile it on Linux with CUDA 13 and the correct kernel HMM support, and you’re only using MoE models (which, tbh, you s…

This needs to be sold as the big ticket item for low level devs. Their chips are some of the most power efficient chips on the market right now. Hoping they release a blade server …

CUDA 13 on Linux solves the unified memory problem via HMM and llamacpp. It’s an absolute pain to get running without disabling Secure Boot, but that should be remedied literally n…

I'm a big fan of on-device AI inference for a million reasons, especially its potential to significantly reduce or even potentially eliminate the need for massive AI data center pr…

False. Local races directly determine the day-to-day laws and rules you live under way more than a POTUS could effectively decree. I don't know about you, but I sure enjoy having r…

Hanlon's razor. "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." Yes, I'm calling labs that don't distill smaller sized models stupid for not doing so.

You can run AI models on unified/shared memory specifically on Windows, not Linux (unfortunately). It uses the same memory sharing system that Microsoft originally had built for ga…

It also lets them keep a lot of the legal issues regarding LLM development at arms length while still benefiting from them.

It's Meta. They always push to be that fast on paper, even when it's costly to do and doesn't really need it.

From what I read, it was a lot of the prosumer/gamer brands (MSI, Gigabyte, ASUS) implementing their part of sleep/hibernate badly on their motherboards. Which honestly lines up wi…
