One more wake up call for anyone outside USA, especially Europe. AI will be weaponized, on the battle ground too, but the bigger battle will be fought in the industry competition. Those who have access to state of the art models will have advantage over those who does not. Hopefully open-weight models will catch up, hopefully we, as the people, engineers will find the way to maintain those open-weight models on pair…

There are some steps in the good direction: https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/news/commission-sel... A consortium will train a 400B-class model and get 2.5% on time of the EuroHPC infrastructure (~2000 PFLOPS datacenters). So, even if the Chinese take away the open source there will be some models. Probably not Mythos quality yet though.

I’m sorry but I can’t take a European Commission link seriously about training SOTA LLMs.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's the year of the open source AI model is the new 'It's the year of the Linux Desktop'. It's not and never will be for 90% of people

GLM 5.2 is competitive with Opus 4.6.

I thought it was better than that? It matches 4.8 in many evals and even beat Fable in Design Arena by a very healthy margin.

This post isn't even on the landing page for some reason.

It's called ghosted, shadow banned, too sensitive / shitshow; Basically a multiplier of 0.1 is added to this post's ranking, or similar, and it will need thousands of upvote instead of hundreds to show.

It's commonly applied silently to posts that simply don't look good or become a nightmare to manage the narrative of. It's a healthy way to manage a community while looking transparent.

I think it's sucky and cheap, but at the same time it's also the best solution.

If they do it, they should mark the post as such as give an explanation. Otherwise you never know if uncle "Sam" called and asked it to be treated as such.

Sooo both OpenAI and Anthropic going bankrupt soon? If they can’t freely sell access to their models and Chinese models catch up to Opus 4.8/GPT 5.5 in 6-8 months - then why pay OAI/Anthropic at all?

It will be much harder for Chinese models to close the gap than it is to keep the historical 6-9 months behind. Their models' performance are heavily propped up on distillation runs. The capital going to their frontier labs is 10x-100x smaller than US frontier labs.

US citizens to remain nonviolent at any cost, issue strongly worded internet comments, and find themselves a little less free every day.

The onion finds itself in a peculiar spot today

How do they do it? Is it even still possible to make up stories that sound more absurd than reality?

Hey some of them take an entire Saturday off to go to a family friendly demonstration holding witty signs in front of their state capitol!

The organizers of the No Kings rallies have done infinitely more to achieve political change in the United States than online commentators who make fun of them for being insufficiently cool and edgy. Effective activism is not about feeling superior to the normies who have families and are busy on weekdays.
