<p>It seems very good at understanding human language clues even in a 4-bit (Q4_K_S) model, similar in feel to E4B but a great incremental improvement.<p>Interesting for my 8GB VRAM system, but the system RAM requirement seems to balloon quickly, and it starts misspelling words. Also token/s drops off quickly it seems</p>

<p>This feels like a stupid idea, but it's not my tax money being wasted on it (yet).<p>An AI being used for offensive purposes would be so easy to counter due to Brandolini's Law. A much simpler AI could probably easily create dumb honey pot systems that looked like real systems with holes in them to lead more advanced and expensive systems on a wild goose chase.<p>Suddenly an AI creating security vulnerabilities is a core part of a future cyber defence strategy. Surely someone must be doing that already</p>

<p>I'm a resident of a country regularly mentioned by the commander in chief who has recently bombed a head-of-state and his family with AGM-114 Hellfire missiles, and captured the head of state of a neighbouring state by military means.<p>All without congressional approval. And apparently without the US population knowing about it.<p>Why risk using US tech?<p>It costs more, and the people running it likely may not be my friends</p>

<p>I can tell you why. It's not the cost (even though it certainly helps)<p>For my company it's about the "pulling the plug" usecase. We create a SaaS product for semi-critical infrastructure - we don't need 99% uptime but more than a few hours and it's problematic.<p>Sure, most cloud/VPS providers have sites in the US as well, but worst case only those places would be affected if the US decided to do a Special Military Operation on Greenland for example.</p>

<p>It's impossible to know right now. Some are saying Pakistan messed up by not specifying properly to both sides what would constitute a cease fire. And US (Israel's proxy) is probably a bit unreliable in how their military command and political leadership separately interpreted the agreements as well<p>/S trying to highlight how stupid it sounds when you try to retrofit sense into this conflict</p>

<p>This project seems to have a serdes block which seems to wrap whatever is in the PDK. Didn't look too far down but from a cursory glance it looked like it was built for an internal clock of 50 MHz (clock default to 20 ns) with an oversampling of 8: 400 MHz<p>If those numbers are at all right it puts it in useful territory. Very much so for a first spin<p>For a first spin it looks overall pretty useful. The only nitpick I have would be that `operation` on the DSP tile should be from fabric instead of config (hardcoded in bitstream) otherwise I don't see a convenient way of resetting the accumulator(?)</p>

<p>I believe you are correct that the list pricing from manufacturers is higher in the US.<p>But my understanding is that this is due to the PBMs punishing manufacturers for lowering the list price. Lower list price means less profit for the PBMs for the discount they negotiate</p>

<p>What happened to letting the free market work it's magic? Has America changed to communism recently without telling anyone?<p>Jk ofc. But the ones scamming Americans are American middlemen - the PBMs.<p>With this change the regime is just proving that it will not fix problems caused by their rich friends but rather pass the bill onto the manufacturers</p>
