cell tower dump and general geofence warrants to Google/Apple were how many Jan 6th protesters were found and charged. Courts threw out all their arguments about this very issue. T…

you'd think they could use AI to interpret the best model for your use case so you don't even have to think about it. Run the first few API calls in parallel, grade the result, and…

Gwern talked about it when GPT 4.5 came out, a ton of breakthroughs with image and text AI came from anons trying to optimize models for their waifus. That's basically the origin o…

>Janus is the roman god representing changes, transitions from past to future, beginnings and ends Deepseek flexing on OpenAI with this model, basically say their time is over

not sure why people are surprised, it's been known a long time that RLHF essentially lobotomizes LLMs by training them to give answers the base model wouldn't give. Deepseek is bet…

comparative advantage is disproven at this point, because economists are failed math majors who don't account for the innovation flywheel effect and general network effects. Silico…

their energy policy has essentially crippled their economy

forced to finally release after that new open source model came out that was equal or better?

target market is probably people who will write it off as a business expense
