I don't understand any of this naming man. It just gets more confusing.

Why do you think they are fighting so hard to dethrone Google?

Google is an ad company.

Correct, this is an acquisition and will benefit AMD a lot. In fact, AMD has made some great acquisitions lately and are on a roll.

Why do you use so many different agents if I may ask?

Is your code safe on hetzner though? I wanted to do something similar but I'm hesitant about what hetzner employees can see on the machines so I don't know how private and safe it would be to store code there.

We are so used to these numbers being thrown around in the AI era that something one needs a reminder that this is 13 billion, not million. Insane exit by HF.

Forgejo/Gitea is lightweight and easy to setup.

There is no reason to be on github anymore.

Your code will used for training and the platform enshitification has been accelerated by Microsoft. It would be wise to move to another platform or even better, host your own Gitlab/Forgejo/Gitea on a vps or at home.

Seems like that's the tradeoff with this model. Close to 27b intelligence while using less vram.

Won't the Chinese providers have to raise their prices as well due to the economics of serving inference at scale?
