@deanwball@TheZvi No, the affected usage is not legitimate. Both according to their terms of service, and the official position of the US Government that Chinese frontier AI distillation should be curtailed.
@TheStalwart@teortaxesTex Commoditize your complement, basic business practices. Nvidia is doing the same by spreading compute across different frontier labs. They blue shelled OpenAI a year ago when it looked like they were in the lead.
@evrgn11112231@CapitalObserver Pretty sure Google cares more about frontrunning the OpenAI/Anthropic IPO than SpaceX. But might as well go ahead of SpaceX while they're at it.
@teortaxesTex Amino acids came to Earth via asteroids right? Maybe that's the most radiation-resilient form organic precursors can be transported across space in. If you have very powerful computers but not enough energy to sustain near-light speed travel, chart a course and lob a rock...
@flawedaxioms Have to weigh that against the capital injection that a public listing would provide. Labs are fundamentally long model capabilities so a mad dash to IPO is the only internally consistent choice.
