I used to do this too, but I learned that will give you inconsistent dosage as the pills aren't guaranteed to have the active ingredient spread uniformly.

I don't think inference is subsidized, it's the training. So what happens is, there's no new models anymore or are released slower.

Isn't there such a thing as low hanging fruit? Aren't we already approaching theoretical physical limits? We're at 2nm

still need to feed the livestock multiple times a day, chop wood, fix stuff around the house

Not sure I get it. The model you're improving is local? If so how do you even calculate cost compared to an API

wow, did not expect blender to be 32 years old, thanks for correcting me. but still, they were open sourced about 1 year apart. I still think having a bigger user base is a good re…

Or Thunderbird is much older and has a lot more users

Unlees you invest thousands your local ai won't even come close to the cheap cloud llms. Local is only worth it if you care about privacy or have a legitimate usage for the hardwar…

that's how it works in my country, though there are no denies, almost 90% of transactions over 20-30$ will require I go into my bank app and confirm it. rarely a big transaction wi…

since pi is built to modify itself, isn't it better to use a language like typescript where LLMs have a LOT of training data? a harness doesn't do any computations by itself so wha…

yes, this is basically experimental tech, if used with open source harnesses. if used with proprietary harnesses, treat as actual malware.

considering plants grow just fine with grow lights, they don't really care. same with co2, they LOVE CO2

and what has come of your new stance since you renounced being a hobbit? I'm not a hobbit, I don't particularly stay out of trouble, I fight injustice where I can, practically. Fol…

politics is a classic double bind where the only winning move is not to play

there is enough corruption and evil in politics for me to just refuse to play the game, even the game you suggest of choosing the least evil of two clearly evil options. If you try…

I, personally, have no power to allow or disallow corruption in any way shape or form. Shouting on the internet is not disallowing corruption. The non-corrupt politicians you speak…

It was the first thing that came to mind that I'm pretty sure would offend over 90% of Americans

How is any of the ideological points in the culture war.. a truth? What I said is a truth claim of orthodoxy and catholicism. Any moral system has a set of axioms, you may not agre…

Which is worse, trying to cut govt costs or trying to create a godlike entity subservient to you? I'd say their ambitions are far more evil even if they don't achieve it. To them c…
