<p>>It’s clear that the era where any one country has global hegemony should end.<p>Unipolar worlds are safer than Bipolar. Multipolar is extremely dangerous.<p>I imagine you didn't  know that more people will be killed if the US doesn't have hegemony.</p>

<p>Unified Memory and Integrated GPU.<p>Apple is amazing at marketing to make 1990s technology sound cutting edge. I'm sure they change something for plausible deniability, as a nominalist, not even 2 of the same computers are the same.</p>

<p>Have you looked at Motorola? I'm not sure they have all of those features, but me and you think similarly and when I did research, I ended up choosing their $130 phone for my contractors.<p>But I main the $900 pixel.<p>They are so similar its weird, but Motorola was slow with snapchat and the keyboard some time.</p>

<p>To be fair, no one should be using Ubuntu. They are the free CD people from the 2000s. They are the Apple of Linux, marketing wins, but low quality.<p>They used outdated linux (Debian-family) because its lower cost to maintain.<p>All around, never use debian-family outside servers. Fedora is the future. Maybe OpenSUSE too. (Note these are not Arch or related to Arch)</p>

<p>Question for you, that 13t/s, is that pretty solid even with high context/tokens?<p>I know Apple marketing says 'look at our 20t/s' but they sent less than 40 tokens.</p>

<p>This is not 'running it on our own computers'.<p>But I like the option to give my data to a rando rather than one of the big 5 US companies that can get sued. At least the rando probably has no idea what to do with 10M of my customer's IP.<p>Actually... thank you for the links. Unironically.</p>

<p>Go free stuff! But... no one is running 400B models on their computers.<p>You are just giving them data instead. Its not like China is known to protect IP. Your data is going to be used against you, and we cant use western laws to keep it safe.</p>

<p>OpenAI has done more for society than all academia over the same timespan.<p>You could probably say the same about various medical devices/medicines. The internet. Chemistry/plastics.<p>Sociology/psychology is historically unfalsifiable, and mostly useless, those are truly detriments.<p>quantum physics might be useful, but I think even there, industry will do it better.</p>

<p>Academia is basically outdated, or needs incredible reform.<p>Industry and youtubers are making significant scientific progress. (I'm mostly joking about youtubers, but it does happen)<p>I think Academia is where B/C-list performers pretend they are A-list.</p>

<p>you give an LLM control of your computer.<p>Yesterday I told it to make a website and it opened the browser, did a bunch of steps, (I did have to authenticate). But then it connected some html on my computer with a server with google sheets.<p>Consider its a massive security risk. You are giving it full access to everything your computer can do. (Potentially, you can limit stuff)</p>

<p>I don't think there is a correct answer here. Induction is great for short term and easily covering a wide range of subjects even if it only covers a tiny part of that subject. Deduction is great for long term progress, but only in narrow parts of the subject, but has a near universal application when found.<p>Use both?</p>
