Yes, both sides bad, but Biden less bad. Making government easy to work with should be the bare minimum. We don't have to throw them a parade every time they do something sane, they work for us.

The ugly truth behind ChatGPT: AI is guzzling resources at planet-eating rates (www.theguardian.com)

Despite its name, the infrastructure used by the “cloud” accounts for more global greenhouse emissions than commercial flights. In 2018, for instance, the 5bn YouTube hits for the viral song Despacito used the same amount of energy it would take to heat 40,000 US homes annually....

Yes it does, and wait until you hear about literally every other industry.

To be fair, crypto will never stand a chance against fiat as a means for payments because governments ensure that it's complicated to tax. However, the underlying blockchain technology remains very interesting to me as a means of getting around middlemen companies.

Saw that too, it's annoying. In a weird way, spam kinda legitimizes this platform as a Reddit alternative.

paf0 ,

No, it teased that llama's ass.

They do have versions of the Gemini models that are open sourced, called Gemma. So far they don't work quite as well as the Llama ones from Facebook but I'm sure that will change.

To play devil's advocate for a moment, is it really a free market if we are incentivizing one technology over another?

paf0 ,

You're going to be ok.

That's how The Herald rolls, it has long been the most sensationalistic Boston newspaper.

Maybe he's just trying to make it cheap enough for Dorsey to buy it from him.

paf0 ,

At this point, everyone who makes that choice knows what they are getting into.

Hard to be a force for good when "Open" AI is not even available for download.

I've been a developer for over 20 years and when I see Autogen generate code, decide to execute that code and then fix errors by making a decision to install dependencies, I can tell you I'm concerned. LLMs are a tool, but a tool that might evolve to replace us. I expect a lot of software roles in ten years to look more like an MBA that has the ability to orchestrate AI agents to complete a task. Coding skills will still matter, but not as much as soft skills will.

Waymo exists and is now moving passengers around in three major cities. It's not taking over yet, but it's here and growing.The timeframe didn't meet the hype but the technology is there.

It's just going to create a summary story about the code base and reference that story as it implements features, not that different that a human. It's not necessarily something it can do now but it will come. Developers are not special, and I was never talking about Copilot.

paf0 ,

Ok.

paf0 ,

Try for a second to think beyond what they're able to do now and think about the future. Also, educate yourself on Autogen and CrewAI, you actually haven't addressed anything I said because you're too busy pontificating.

Reddit: 'We Are in the Early Stages of Monetizing Our User Base' (www.404media.co)

Reddit said in a filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission that its users’ posts are “a valuable source of conversation data and knowledge” that has been and will continue to be an important mechanism for training AI and large language models. The filing also states that the company believes “we are in the early...

I am not for sale

Yes.

That much stock is not easy to sell, he'd tank the value of the entire company and never retain anywhere near 193M. You could sell that much gold.

paf0 ,

It depends. Every carrier has better or worse spectrum and/or tower coverage depending on where you are.

paf0 ,

By this logic Llama should be ranting like our drunk uncles on Facebook. It doesn't though, just like Gemini won't from Reddit content.

paf0 ,

Long live nuance.

Chrome was much faster and more stable than Firefox for a time, but they're similar now.
