I suspect this acquisition was a response to NVIDIA's acquisition of Groq. Cerebras is already public. AFAICT, there are 8 other startups in the space, some of which have mature pr…

Haven't you seen the kernel optimization case study at the bottom of the page? They compare against GPT-5.6 Sol and their model is worse.

I haven't compared it for perf, but at first glance this appears to be an LLM (text-only) while both binary and ternary bonsai 27B models are VLMs (where the vision tower and the a…

At first glance, this work might also be relevant for quantizing diffusion transformers (something I'm working on at the moment).

Wow, I can't believe that the author is still updating the book! I'd learnt protected mode assembly from an older version of this book, decades ago. And IIRC, there was an even old…

Deuterium or tritium? Deuterium is a stable isotope and does not decay.

I'm not making any moral judgements based on it, merely observing it.

> The measured result is a reference point, not a performance ceiling. Claude was here.

Could this possible be the first AI worm? Or are there any priors to this?

Wouldn’t that be TAT?

Those were voluntary disclosures by two Anthropic researchers and the security firm Calif. I know one more CVE on the list that was discovered using an AI agent and wasn't disclose…

Interestingly enough, this and many other related ethical conundrum were covered in the Nuremberg Charter from 1945.

Hey, thanks for doing the right thing. There's no need for an apology.

> cc-by-nc is a protection against that. I don’t think so. There are CC licenses that allow for commercial usage. Most companies ban their developers from using anything with an NC…

Blink to approve. :)

I think the fully autonomous weapons systems restriction is not a very serious one and is very easy to circumvent. What if you can hire a human to push a single approve button? And…

Why extend an MIT licensed model's weights (BiRefNet) and release it under a cc-by-nc-4.0 license?

Since the model is natively MXFP4, I think it'll be even more interesting on the hardware front. It'll comfortably fit on a 8x AMD MI355X node. I suspect that'll drive token prices…

You might want to look at Peewee's query filtering syntax. https://docs.peewee-orm.com/en/latest/peewee/querying.html#f...

Great to see ruff, ty and uv being actively developed, even after Astral was acquired by OpenAI.

I do this, but with Post-it notes. Something to do with the deification of books in the culture I was brought up in, which makes writing on the margins of books a sin.

Also, people seem to be oblivious to the existence of the neo-cloud: Nebius whose services and servers, a lot of western AI companies use. Nebius was spun out of Yandex 2 years ago…

Krea-2-Turbo and Z-Image-Turbo, both offline.

Thanks for bringing this up. You're 100% right. But most people, even technical ones are oblivious to how much of a difference modern samplers and higher quality quantization algor…
