<p>I would rather maintain a vibe coded frontend that uses well organised react components than some huge vanilla js codebase.<p>I think the needs are perhaps a bit different now. Syntactic sugar is perhaps less important for example. But code structure and architecture are still critical.</p>

<p>They successfully have made PoC finetunes before, so the next step is training fully fledged LLMs.<p>I don’t think they aim to anything worthwhile. The finetunes were incredibly broken. I’m guessing it’s more about having the method to do it. I’m not convinced it’s super useful but I’m not one to decide who gets to do what with the research funds.<p>One finetune I tried did make fun of humans expressing their feelings in the chat. Often.<p>One other finetune did hallucinate that it was a doctor and my baby had terrible diseases, every time I just wrote "hei" (with a generic neutral system prompt that likely triggered this behaviour though).<p>I think Olivia is big enough for what it’s used for. In my opinion it’s better to stay up to date and not waste too much money on hardware at the moment.</p>

<p>I have got more frustrations than successes when I tried to run agents without supervising them. I believe the technology will get there eventually, but right now I need one IDE per agent and its cumbersome to merge the work.</p>

<p>A M3 ultra mac Studio can run models that do not fit in similarly priced computers with multiple Nvidia GPUs. And it will use a lot less electricity while still having good enough performance. Except the pre-filing perfs that are quite poor on the M3.</p>

<p>I think the Gaia-X, Cloudwatt, and similar experiences aren’t big successes so the governments may not want to waste too much money into trying to build an alternative.<p>I agree that Hetzner isn’t it, they struggle at the object store step apparently, so it’s quite a long road ahead for them.<p>From my customer point of view, I think scaleway may be the most qualified but I’m not sure they can scale and step up.</p>
