Gemini is better than either at multi modal, google also has their tensor processor stuff with ridiculously high T/s output they need for acceptable UX

Ah OpenSolaris, good to see you survived, but oh boy it aches my heart every time I hear your name. Just like ZFS

Worst idea I’ve seen all week, I’d rather have the opposite, and I’m an AI developer so not even against it

Some people seem to give very little thought to semantics and semiotics lately, to the point where people use words vaguely without even looking it up.

Lol. I think they unleashed it on this post, look at the number of only vaguely related, lukewarm opinions trying to push the racism and CSAM stuff to the bottom

This project is a gigantic waste of resources, it’s fine tuned on politics of the CEO, was used for CSAM generation and just sucks overall

We’ve been automating every single industry that we touched for decades without a single word, bringing up tepid responses like “it’s capitalism” or “business is business” when called out on it.

But now that the time has comes for us to automate and change, we’re all up in arms and using ridiculous arguments like this post to fight it.

The hypocrisy is mind blowing

Thanks for the time capsule. Boy that’s a lot of ads (live video on a computer! Wow!).

Yes it’s not bad, although it’s not meant to be a chatbot, post training is limited, so it won’t feel as smooth as TOTL of course. The number of supported languages is mind boggling.

Focus was on open data, languages and auditability.

Their loss function is fancy, not sure about the effects

I can’t help but draw a connection with the numerous budget cuts from this admin, including the almost-crisis from last year with NIST.
