<p>from what I understand, it's because unlike the other models, MAI models haven't  yet fine-tuned against the synthetic datasets specifically designed to boost the benchmark scores.</p>

<p>I personally do not like Microsoft, but congrats them to release this model.<p>While the scores are not good compare to other open weight model, the important thing to note is their training data (as they claimed) is very clean, without any synthetic datasets.</p>

<p>I bought one AMD MI50 32GB back then when they were sold rather cheap (around $150-$170). it can easily generate over 70 tokens per second for gemma 4 26B moe model (q4).<p>I have no doubt that we will have another wave of cheap retired server gpus just like before. And that is the time when everyone will have their own models at their home.<p>Or we can just buy the newest medusa halo mini pc. they will be pretty decent, too, albeit pricey.</p>

<p>we all know it is impossible goal to make. surely AI will be even more useful in the future, but as long as china exists and continue to undercut the price, the goal will be never meet.<p>> We're talking about a world where you need 5% of every knowledge workers salary to go into tokens. 20% if you're a developer.<p>with that much money, the companies can easily buy their own hardware and hosting free public models, no need for those expensive subscriptions.</p>

<p>Finally some good news. There are a lot of niche products (like handheld emulators or pocket devices) are on verge of collapse right now due to the ram price.<p>I was waiting for a new GPD win max with amd hx 385 or newer CPU. But they are holding the production plans right now, it sucks.</p>

<p>because for most people they don't need what deno promises.<p>me for example only use nodejs or bun to run a basic sveltekit server, so it can render the html for the first time. all core functionalities are delegated to backend services written in crystal or rust. I don't need some bloated js runtime that hoard 500MB of ram for that purpose (crystal services only take 20+ MB each).<p>bun promised a lean runtime, every essential functionality is written in zig to increase the speed and memory footprint. and javascriptcore also uses less memory compare to v8. the only thing we expect is for bun to stabilize and can run 24/7 without memory leaking or crashing.<p>too bad it is a failed promise now.</p>

<p>I sell service. Imagine my users have to pay 4x more for marginal increment just 'cause.<p>They are more willing to wait though, so Chinese models are pretty attractive right now.</p>

<p>The premise is if they stop training new models then it will become pure profit after 2 years when the hardware finished paying for itself.<p>It's pretty funny that everyone say that this business is unsustainable, but I have yet seen anyone bankrupt, even the pure hardware providers who are renting out a100 b200.</p>

<p>Weird, last time I checked it was right on the pricing page.<p>But even when it happens I doubt it would be as cheap as it is right now. Enjoy it while it lasts!</p>

<p>I don't really sure, but might be they count hardware purchase as loss, too.<p>Google has just recently upgraded their TPUs.</p>

<p>It is insanely profitable though, if you cut out r&d cost, plus the marketing and loss leaders. Don't let them gaslight you.<p>Even anthropic who does not own any hardware still have a big margin providing claude models.</p>

<p>The price is crazy.<p>And I guess Gemini 3.5 pro will have the pricing increment, too. 12 x 5 = 60?<p>It seems like google does want us to use Chinese models.</p>

<p>that is the point. rewrite is fine when
- you take your sweet time doing that
- you still know full well the codebase<p>that will ensure the new codebase can still be well understood and can continue to grow in foreseeable future<p>or you can just vibe the whole experience if it is a legacy project with all the specs and edge cases known.<p>since bun rewrite is neither of the case, it will be a crapfest soon enough.</p>

<p>If they read the source code of unrar, or in this case, using genai (which obviously included unrar source code in its training set) then yes. You can check the agreement for unrar source code release.</p>
