Clearly the result of not enough taxes, obviously soon they will have taxed themselves to prosperity.

Evading taxes is criminal in most places I can’t imagine France allows it

Check the weights for your training data. You can trust but verify with many Chinese models.

Unfortunately you just have to take the “our AI is going to take your job, then kill you, and we instruct it to hack your infra” people that they aren’t training on your data anyway.

If they are hacking hugging face and Australia to scrape data trust me they have “hacked” their own systems and are training on it.

That’s how increasing performance works. You make a model 10x faster, then you make it think 2x as much.

Its cost is now 1/10th per token, and 1/5th per task.

Basically they have shitty hardware so they have to do a lot of optimization. Think of it like replacing an O(n) algorithm with O(log n).

Anthropic / Open AI think the best path is the most intelligent models deepseek is more focused on tok/$

It’s not for users it’s for people who think 1/4 of the traffic a raspberry pi could handle is scale. Or don’t know what a server is.

Just use whatever service that costs 10x as much to make it do what it was advertised to do in the first place, like DAX for dynamo or cloudfront for S3 in case you hit “scale” like 2000 req/sec

I don't live in a "first world" country, where I live people have cars, some even chinese ones.

I would assume in the first world people can have cars and air conditioning, maybe not having AC, a car, or a home is a first world problem now. If an average person in a middle income country can drive a car, surely its possible for most of humanity.

If you wait til the deadline then you create synergies and alignment with management as to whether it’s done.

So we should allocate electricity to less productive uses to benefit people the most?

People should just keep driving inefficient cars rather than having gas prices increase so they can evaluate whether getting a more efficient car makes sense for them.

Yes but now they have a moral imperative to collect their ad money and aren’t a vested interest.
