This could actually be why they’re entering China. Emerging economies might buy much cheaper older tech from Chinese machines instead of cutting edge &expensive ASML machines… Once the tech is out, Pandoras box can’t be unopened (from ASML’s perspective). Stifling Chinese adoption early might make any Chinese competitor nonviable without govt support. Overall might be worth any retribution from the US.

OP 59 tabs open… On mobile? OP… Let em go already.

Agreed. I think GN missed the point by not publishing the smoking gun receipts, but an avalanche of receipts for things LMG was guilty of and have admitted to. It kinda makes it look like GN wants it to look like they’re “burying LMG with evidence”, but in reality the smoking gun would only need to be a paragraph & some screenshots.

Most consumers aren’t reasonable consumers like you though. Peer pressure & curiosity is one helluva draw.

I seriously doubt there’ll be meaningful DLC and that the story will be long/entertaining. See the critically acclaimed RDR2,has no big DLC. I doubt it’ll ever come down to $20

I suspect it’ll be a vehicle to push GTA Online 6 or whatever. Even with that, it’ll still be $100. I also doubt it’ll come to steam till 5 years down the line. These are usual Rockstar & 2K shenanigans.

Not being cynical, being (relatively) realistic. Rockstar has a track record of demanding exorbitant prices & fans paying them.

Our organization notified all they’re shifting to SAP HANA from salesforce. I have no clue what any of that means.

Absolutely, ignorance is tantamount to complicity. Especially since BYD will earn a profit on their slave labor.

I’d love if it were Linux but its probably macs, mostly due to their superior battery life (compared to Windows).

Anecdotally my parents bit the bullet switched to Macs after using Windows 11 and all its unnecessary changes from 10. It was death by a thoudand cuts for them, where simple processes like search and printers are radically different than before. If they gotta learn a new system, might as well learn something that works.

Good luck to them! It’d be interesting to see how they prove scraping. Like do you find something unique to your website & then prompt the model to give you just that? So you use the citation/reference features that link to your websites?

Knowing the slimeballs at OpenAI I’d wager they’d have covered their tracks.

EDIT To be clear, I’m not suggesting they deleted evidence, but they “laundered” the data via a public training dataset like Eluther AI’s “the pile”.

I feel sorry for website maintainers at this point, they gotta deal with a broken ad supported business model, AI web scrapers, dwindling viewership, and now google modifying their pages without their knowledge. Like people who just want to share interesting stuff with the world and make a living off of their work have to deal with this crap.

Not gonna lie, OneDrive at work integrated with Mail, Teams & Word is super convenient mainly because at work we’re forced to use it. But my dude, Microsoft. My friends and family do not want to use it, so stop asking.

Well its not organic at all. I remember it’d create a Threads account for you even if you interacted with a Threads post while logged into Instagram. Kinda shady to boast about such numbers imo.

Let them eat cake… but remember, the cake is a lie.

Friggin’ mic drop dude! This statement is amazing 👏

Money saved on k9’s is money for some super ugly Oakley’s dude

Devils advocate: retiring an old service dog means you’d need to invest in training another pup which is way more expensive than titanium teeth and dealing even with animal cruelty complaints and/or lawsuits. Also “bleed blue” fanboys will see this as badass, so its free PR.

As a mortal/moral person advocate: WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU.

Hoback argues

In any case, says Hoback, the identity of the real Satoshi is a matter of public interest. “This person is potentially on track to become the wealthiest on Earth,” says Hoback. “If countries are considering adopting this in their treasuries or making it legal tender, the idea that there’s potentially this anonymous figure out there who controls one-twentieth of the total supply of digital gold is pretty important.”

Currently bitcoin or any block chain based currency is more of a grift than financial freedom. However countries like El Salvador have taken it up as official currency, so real lives can be affected by whoever holds that bitcoin stockpile.

That is a good point, but I think I’d like to make the distinction of saying LLM’s or “generic model” is a garbage concept, which require power & water rivaling a small country to produce incorrect results.

Neural networks in general that can (cheaply) learn on their own for a specific task could be huge! But there’s no big money in that, since its not a consolidated general purpose product tech bros can flog to average consumers.

That’s an excellent point! Why oh why would a tech bro start a non-profit? Its always been PR.

Putting my tin foil hat on… Sam Altman knows the AI train might be slowing down soon.

The OpenAI brand is the most valuable part of the company right now, since the models from Google, Anthropic, etc. can beat or match what ChatGPT is, but they aren’t taking off coz they aren’t as cool as OpenAI.

The business models to train & run models is not sustainable. If there is any money to be made it is NOW, while the speculation is highest. The nonprofit is just getting in the way.

This could be wishful thinking coz fuck corporate AI, but no one can deny AI is in a speculative bubble.

Fixed & noted. Thanks!
