That’s an excellent point! Why oh why would a tech bro start a non-profit? Its always been PR.

Putting my tin foil hat on… Sam Altman knows the AI train might be slowing down soon.
The OpenAI brand is the most valuable part of the company right now, since the models from Google, Anthropic, etc. can beat or match what ChatGPT is, but they aren’t taking off coz they aren’t as cool as OpenAI.
The business models to train & run models is not sustainable. If there is any money to be made it is NOW, while the speculation is highest. The nonprofit is just getting in the way.
This could be wishful thinking coz fuck corporate AI, but no one can deny AI is in a speculative bubble.
Fixed & noted. Thanks!
They greedy af. They’ve lobbied (bribed?) to keep the corp taxes as low as possible. Then they go Double Irish with Dutch Sandwich and NOT pay the low taxes anyways. If we were to tax them appropriately then it’d be a helluva lot more than 13b imo
Could it be prompts by devs are different from lay folk? For example, “write a website for selling shoes” would give a more complete result compared to “write a single page app with a postgres back end with TLS encryption” (or whatever), which would add more constraints & reduce the pool of code the AI steals from.
Didn’t Google’s lighthouse have a metric for that? “Colour Contrast ratio” or something?
Valid*Public
Sorry, I think I chose the wrong word, I mean Public i.e., not conspiratorial.
This is really great. Wendover Productions made an excellent video about electrification of flights a while ago.
Now the real question is: will world governments allow this Chinese technology into their countries? Protectionism is a valid *public reason to deny it, but I wonder if denying Chinese tech under the guise of national security a last ditch attempt from big oil lobbyists?
Or is that too far fetched and I’m just way to cynical.
I think Windows 11 was supposed to be that clean break. They’ve reimplemented a lot of core functionality compared to XP & 7. If they’re still getting breached then they obviously aren’t serious about security.
Microsoft focused on security at this point is like a builder focusing on building strong foundations now that the house is built on top.
It’s a little too late my dudes.
Oh that’s interesting, I wasn’t aware of this. Is it an unspoken policy? Or its an over reliance on “innovation first” pseudo-management?
Google often feels like a disorganized company with constantly shifting priorities, and a big reason behind that is the lack of top-down initiatives from the CEO. That means the real driving force behind most projects at Google are mid-level executives who show up with grand plans and then leave—either in disgrace or triumph—when those initial plans run their course.
Makes a lot of sense. There doesn’t seem to be a unifying strategy behind anything google does. I also think theres a vicious circle going on here: google has a loyalty problem, which could be solved by long term thinking, usually done by loyal employees, but employees don’t stick around long enough.
Also seems like a shitty get-outta-jail-free card. With no design in place, timelines and acceptance criteria can’t be enforced. “Of course we’re done now, we just decided that we’re done!”
Absolutely, however I think there is indifference or complacency in lay tech users. It might help open a few eyes if shown effects in peoples personal lives. For example, asking have you been getting obscene number of spam/robo-calls? That’s because your info was either stolen or sold by the company’s you shared it with. That would make the effect hit home better I think.
I remember when there was news that Facebook was listening to your conversations and suggesting ads when you logged in. Even if untrue it creeped people out, some even quitting Facebook entirely. Maybe something like that can happen with MS and they back off. Or better yet we legislate the shit out of tech companies, follow the EU way.
Don’t like your first statement, but agree with your second.
RedHat source is accessible to registered red hat users. That is NOT open source. https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/furthering-evolution-centos-stream
Image mode builds on the success of open source projects such as bootc
I always think its icky when companies advertise open source projects in their propriety closed source one.
You forget the enterprise usage for Windows. Even Incremental gain is huge. With x86 emulation it definitely is a huge threat for apple.
Though I am happy Apple did it first. Competition is great for consumers. We’d never have gotten a decent ARM PC if Apple didn’t rattle Microsoft’s cage.
Because it already knows everything personal about you from your google account, chrome browser, search history, emails & files, and even your keyboard. Gemini wants to guess, because it’s more exciting that way! 🤩 /s
That is a good point, but I think I’d like to make the distinction of saying LLM’s or “generic model” is a garbage concept, which require power & water rivaling a small country to produce incorrect results.
Neural networks in general that can (cheaply) learn on their own for a specific task could be huge! But there’s no big money in that, since its not a consolidated general purpose product tech bros can flog to average consumers.
