You are assuming they are paying retail price, which they certainly are not.
What makes you think they are getting a good discount? What are they going to do? Buy AMD, yeah right. Nvidia's sales are only limited by the number of wafers they can get from TSMC.

#183Why open source it? Just another virtue signal while their real motivation is something more sinister? They are a for-profit publicly owned company. Are investors happy about spending billions to open-source it?

#184Even as someone who is bearish on AI, i get why it is an important part of Google and Microsoft's product offerings. What in the world does a fancy chatbot have to do with building a social network?

I am a general intelligence, with the knowledge of the internet at my fingertips, and I am not particularly dangerous.

#189My money has been on Meta for AGI since they started training people to label data for them (tag your friends!) Between all their properties they have more instrumentation on humans, collecting human behavior trajectories and state action pairs transfer learning and inverse RL than anyone - and it’s not even a close second Specifically and critically I think they likely have the largest egocentric multimodal labeled…
