Assuming a large decline in demand for AI compute, what would be the use cases for renting out older AI compute hardware on the cloud? Where would the demand come from? Prices would also go down with a decrease in demand.

I wonder what the process was for choosing specifically 10%. Why not 8.7%? Or 13.9%? Surely an efficiency drive would have some sort of structured/analytical approach to it?

I use the “udm=14” method to remove the AI/Spam results at the beginning of search result. While it doesn’t address the overall decline in search quality, I find it is a much better experience.

I see this as PR speak for admitting that they can’t continue to achieve massive generational improvements in LLMs (let alone anything close to AGI) even with exponential increases in computing power. They are hitting a very costly brick wall.

Yup, Sutskever is a CEO of a LLM/AI company.

“The 2010s were the age of scaling, now we’re back in the age of wonder and discovery once again. Everyone is looking for the next thing,” Sutskever said. “Scaling the right thing matters more now than ever.”

The “wonder and discovery” phrasing is a dead giveaway for what’s going on.

How does it strike again though?

Reading over the government page for this act, it seems like common sense. I get the impression that any properly moderated forum would already be implementing such measures.

Am I missing something.

This could be my lack of knowledge of the settings, but if you have multiple languages added, you have to choose the language.

This should honestly be part of the default WebUI.

Isn’t one of the strengths of offensive cyber programs that you can leverage plausible deniability. Why in gods would you publicly state your intent to engage in such operations?

This is really the of stuff dystopian scifi.

A somewhat cliched saying comes to my mind when reading this article.

“The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.” [1]

Hopefully, there will eventually be pushback against this techno-feudalism and oligarchy. For what it’s worth this seems to always happen in history. Ruling elites (in our case oligarchs and their promoters; the media, economists, politicians) consolidate their power and start to become disconnected from reality.

As a side note, it’s funny that AI-generated videos have themes of dystopia and rebellion against the system.

I was honestly surprised how unstable the Automattic CEO sounded. He is literally sabotaging his own company/product/project.

It’s a public mental implosion.

They do way more than that, that’s just the consumer facing stuff.

This is crazy. How can they just take down your domain without at least discussing the issue.

He strikes me as a “wannabe American”. As someone who has lived in the US, but didn’t necessarily want to immigrate on a permanent basis, you can smell the deep insecurity with Elmo on this issue.

Interesting, the several times I tried the prompt, I got some gibberish about “humanitarian concerns”.

This was earlier in the year though.

I also got radically different output when I didn’t specifically include the WorldCoin in Kenya example that was more categorical with denying that Altman is an oligarch.

Prompting Gemini LLM about Sunder Pichai was also interesting.

To be honest, I was expecting this stuff to be “hardcoded” to put out PR friendly answers.

Beautiful irony to see this coming from Sam “Worldcoin” Altman.

Bonus points, try inputting a prompt into ChatGPT asking whether Sam Altman is an oligarch and his “rescue” of Worldcoin executives in Kenya is an example of oligarch power.

At one point BitTorrent/P2P was responsible for something like 30-40% of all global internet traffic.

The thing is the protocol never really developed beyond some useful, but minor evolutionary updates.

Short-form vertical video social platforms are here to stay.

We are not going to turn back the clock. I say this as someone who doesn’t use TikTok.

The only semi-realistic (and I use this term very casually) option would be some sort of radical, never-seen-before change in our global societal and socioeconomic models. The dynamics of short form video social media will be the least of our concerns in such a scenario.

I didn’t intend to ask for personal details.

Just high-level generic information. I am just curious what sort of use cases would require someone to manage a server, but still have challenges with using a slightly different UI.

If you don’t mind me asking, what sort of servers/clients do you work with?
