@txgermanbre the weights are supposedly dropping the 27th, so something like open router might be the next best place, or maybe it'll offload enough traffic to let kimi's servers breathe
@boneGPT ASIC per model is a dream, but if they have a way to actually update them that’s insane. Even if we can get the current open Gemma or qwen models >70B that’d be incredible.
Fuck the models, Google needs to re-aim for the shovels outside just TPUs. Nvidia can be taken down a peg
I was radicalized when I found out you can go work at the Southern Poverty Law Center or any other communist “non-profit” and have your student loans forgiven under the “Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program”.
@upstatefederlst American Millennials will never even get a chance to represent their cohort because immigrants will be too large a demographic by the time the boomers lose their grasp on power (see mamdani)
Young whites internalized hatred, + importing people that don’t like them
Maybe there’s some networking plan that could work when AI gets both good and cheap enough- one that can route skills and interests to needs efficiently enough.
Like a Craigslist sort of thing.
regulations would make this all nightmarish, but who knows what the future holds
Self employment is almost impossible to scale across the whole economy but it is probably one of the most strongly correlated factors with “freedom.”
When employment relies on your opinion aligning with an employer, your opinion is strangled (all of woke era shit for example)
This is why communes/co-ops also suck, even if you get an equal part ownership in something, your cut of that pie very quickly disappears. It can’t scale beyond like 10 people, which is why companies start small and have those creators maintain the ownership- cant scale otherwise
@Austen So in the real world if it truly gave her that level of expertise she would not be paid 5x , maybe a 40% increase while still firing her team.
No employer is giving an employee 5x
@sumitroy2 China may be hamstrung by not being allowed to -legally- buy gpus but they have their hands on plenty of them.
They get them through other countries. (Lots of scandals from Singapore for ex)
Your others points stand but I think it’s important to note
Bruh if the Chinese are distilling American models right at a cheaper cost? Hear me out. Why aren’t the Americans distilling their own models to make it cheaper?
