@redtachyon Not as daily drivers tbh since 5.5 gets mostly everything I need done. I mainly use them to generate synthetic data for fine tuning very small models, but that’s the most feasible “local” driver model imo

@yacineMTB Masterful ragebait. The chat future is extremely broken

@xqcdp @max_spero_ @adastroworld @rob_mcrobberson For sure, send me a DM

[Fung @Funggx]

@pigeon__s That's pretty cool, they got that far without unethically sourced data and no synthetic data. I need to read the report

[Fung @Funggx]

@max_spero_ @adastroworld @rob_mcrobberson I am actually in the process of doing this at work, looking to migrate traffic from Modal into both AWS and Nebius. I have a very long list of providers and H100 prices if you want some insight, including their ability to handle “serverless”

[Fung @Funggx]

@pigeon__s It’s competent, but I wonder if such large volume mixed in a lot of slop that hurt quality

[Fung @Funggx]

@crystalwizard But who would be up for the task of reviewing the mountain of slop?

@syshukus @HSVSphere @georgecurtiss A few months ago I learned about the subsidized market in the US that leads to corn syrup in EVERYTHING. It's a large part of why so many Americans are obese. You can buy same product in other countries with a fraction of the calories

@HSVSphere @georgecurtiss I just searched up UHT and that’s so cool, you can buy milk and keep it there for months until you need it. I need to visit Europe

[Fung @Funggx]

@HSVSphere @georgecurtiss So how doesn’t it go bad? Even refrigerated, milk spoils relatively fast here

[Fung @Funggx]

@HSVSphere @georgecurtiss You guys don’t refrigerate your milk?

[Fung @Funggx]

@OfficialLoganK @harjtaggar I really respect and admire how receptive you are to feedback even when it's negative or mean sounding. Wishing you guys luck on the next release :D

[Fung @Funggx]

@robinebers Very impressive :) good stuff!

[Fung @Funggx]

@Chrisgpt @Angaisb_ @chetaslua Speed is their moat, but even then it's not it imo

[Fung @Funggx]

@Angaisb_ @flavioAd The pricing killed it, I was excited for a fast and cheap flash model

[Fung @Funggx]

@nwpfnr @SharavArora @Sonu_Singha_ @Lovable Be nice, nothing warranted being a dick

[Fung @Funggx]

@jskoiz @Angaisb_ Oh yes, I meant more so if creds are saved within the account instead of locally

@jparkjmc In my masters second semester at gt. At what point did you feel ready/comfortable to interview at deepmind? I did interdisciplinary ml research in undergrad, took grad ml, and work at a startup fullstack deploying models in serverless env. But it feels far off from good enough
