Anthropic is incredibly good at avoiding all the useless AI risks, while not doing anything serious about the real risks (that is: uncontrolled growth). I'm as pro-AI as I think that eventually it will remove suffering from humans, and

That's perfectly wrong. Since strong coding AI, people venture into huge rewrites and other big changes that automatically make sense but otherwise would not.

Sol for low level programming is consistently better, can work alone for more time, and is faster. If you think Fable is so superior, you need to work with Sol ways more.

Yes. The article says that you need to read a lot to write well. You actually need to write a lot, and to read carefully, high quality, and potentially low quantity too (to use more time to write).

This is simply not true, even if it is commonly repeated among the folks that usually don't really write. Like how reading every source code that comes handy will not turn yourself into a great programmer, to be a good writer you need

We need companies able to reimagine the devices we use every day in a more sharp way.

H3 is quite uncensored, but was not trained on p0rn, so it has no anatomy clues needed to generate that kind of stuff. For softer adult content it is reported to be fine on Reddit.

Does not matter much in this case. GPU bound.

This implementation is much faster on my M5 Max, like a few minutes for the same video, but on an M5 Max with 128GB, didn't test on M5 Pro. About memory, could be executed on 64GB with a few changes.

In the AMA Minimax said that H3 could support sparse attention, that would be a huge speedup! I wonder if there are any news on that. H3 is very cool. EDIT: testing a --sparse-attention optional mode based on what they said in the Reddit po

Price is not a good meter. Active parameters per token are. Joule would be even better.

Chinese labs are the proof that there is no need of big names, but of the right mindset and agility. It's those last things that Google truly misses, but now they are missing for a long time, and outside the AI divisions too, in almost

This is not at the top as it is actively flagged by people that can't psychologically cope with the advances of AI. Hacker News is no longer a web site of an elite.

SSD streaming on an M5 Max 128GB: https://x.com/antirez/status/2082136334160818528 Soon decent speed across two Mac Studios with 512GB of RAM.

So many mathematicians over the years tried hard and failed, but now Anthropic just for some PR magically did it? And this after LLMs obtaining different math wins? What is your logic here really escapes my understanding.

Execution is not the code, but how do you decide to do every part. "Idea does not matter, execution does" always meant: "big generic ideas don't matter, it is how you organize it in the myriad of details it is composed o

Because Redis is not "my project", it is a piece of software many relies upon, so I use, for that software, what the community at large agrees to be ok: AI-assisted coding with human careful reading and evaluation of every line.

I'm against using AI to write text targeting other humans.

Thanks! And sorry for not yet merging many of those. The problem is, I'm dealing with tensor parallelism for the CUDA and Metal-RDMA fork right now, so was not albe to care about PR / issues for a lot of time.

Thanks, I believe that as a whole choosing the BSD created a more positive effect, so I'm happy with that. It is just that it is really unfair to read a comment where people use ValKey to accuse you of AI slop :D It means that our comm

Sure, it costs less, and AWS is in a dominant position. Users here are playing the side of the bully since they don't care about what is right and wrong with the hyperscalers. "BSD is better than AGPL!" And give money to the

Do you understand Redis and ValKey have mostly overlapping code bases? And of that intersection, a big part of the code was written by myself by hand. So no, that's not the case. Also as I wrote in the blog post, Redis is currently not

The flaw is here: > 1. Compute costs collapsed since the advent of Cloud and yet hyperscalers still have fat margins. Cloud opposes switch inertia. To setup a complex system in a different environment is a complex operation. Changing AI

So to avoid those energy-hungry LLM companies from scraping your website, you force each browser to compute a lot of hashes in a necessarily energy-hungry loop, creating, at the same time, all the kind of accessibility problems?

Why Anthropic can't ask users for passports and provide Fable only to the ones that certify?
