People stick x90 cards into SFF cases? Seems almost counterproductive.

Isn’t the daringfireball blog a de facto front for Apple PR?

[email protected] (self-promotion, I am a mod there) covers semiconductor related topics pretty well.

That being said, some articles do include business and tech news.

I am honestly shocked that someone at FB would post critiques about their board members in their internal forums.

Surely they should be smart enough to understand that:

1. Senior management doesn’t give a fuck what they think.
2. The internal forums aren’t actually for feedback. It’s an HR management tool.

That being said, if the posters are young, then it is somewhat understandable.

I had firmware updates for a 1080 Philips TV from ~2010.

You could do it via USB.

Not only that, but they tend to adopt the new tech on their terms and reject the mainstream adoption approach.

You really start to feel old when the cyberpunk novels of the 80s and 90s start to become reality (not in a literal sense, but elements are definitely coming true). It was 40 years since Neuromancer was released last year.

Big Macs, M4 Macbooks and AI Slop about the danger of woke to human civilization.

Fair point.

I generally avoid YT on any serious topics unless the video medium is used in a way that contributes to the discussion (e.g. a debate, interview, guest hosts, use of slides/charts/videos).

Is this spam for a clickbait YT channel or is this for real?

Unless this was generated via LLM, seems like a lot of effort for clickbait spam.

I didn’t think of it in this way, but it does sound very convincing.

Meta would love to essentially make fake virtual influencers to get all their money and have more control.

To be fair, a bubble is more of an economic thing and not necessarily tied to product/service features.

LLMs clearly have utility, but is it enough to turn them into a profitable business line?

Yeah, this is not even really targeting clickbait, more like putting restrictions on openly malicious content.

Just goes to show that russians have had (until recently) relatively easy access to independent information within a few clicks on their smartphones.

I will also note that many reliable news organizations (BBC, DW) started their russian language YT news programs as far back as 2010. This is also true for well regarded local independent news (TV Dozdh).

Haha. I believe the AMD Instinct / Nvidia Datacentre GPUs aren’t that great for gaming.

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.
