qurren: Thanks for the reply, that certainly makes sense to me, though I think given the most popular idiocies in the air and their severe distortions on the discourse, it's not a great idea to leave that ambiguous in precisely that wa

Every company that is not OpenAI or Anthropic is sufficiently behind the frontier to feel ethically shielded from the weight of advancing the frontier.

Absolutely wild amounts of cope and denial in this thread. Maybe in contention for the site record. "It's just marketing" actual stochastic parrots.

There is a lot of demand for AI denial, but nearly everybody who is capable of writing even semi-coherently on the topic recognizes AI denial in general as cope, and has too much moral dignity to propogate their coping denial for personal g

I can't recall which, but I'm certain that I've encountered and probably used Codeberg-hosted things, and from that had gathered a vague positive impression of them. I guess what I'm worried about is that the proprietors

"the community" being some tiny subset of busybodies out of an OOMs-larger body of users that don't want to be bothered? Real question, I don't know anything about Codeberg or its community.

I understand why he might not want to and hope I would have the character to do similarly in his place, but they should really lead with "by Zach Barth" rather than "from the original Zachtronics team", which still sound

Without specifically looking into it but just going off of Steam releases and headline, I'd assumed Zachtronics closing was Zach Barth leaving the scene, and the company that made Kaizen etc were some of his former colleagues continuin

That is hilarious cope. The US benefits far far relatively more when the global economy is running smoothly than when able to sell oil higher, like some shithole petrostate. Appropriate I suppose.

It should be noted that this has not revealed anywhere near as much as was being eagerly anticipated. So far nearly all the screenshots I've seen passed around are relatively low-follower barely-known accounts even in each one's

I don't deny that it is beneficial (it clearly is, in my direct experience as well): I doubt that it is the highest determinant of quality, and suspect that even more basic properties like thickness have been systematically neglected a

This is not truly solvable. There is an extremely strong outer loop of optimization operating here: we want it. We will use models that make us feel good over models that don't make us feel good. This one was a little too ham-fisted (a

You seem to have somehow missed one of the most significant advancements in human history suddenly exploding out of the pages of science fiction and fundamentally altering our existence forever. Minor oversight.

If I understand you correctly, what you're claiming is: University 1 gets $100. $10 of it goes to admin, $90 to researcher. Researcher spends $60 on supplies and equipment. This is accounted for as 10% administrative overhead. Unive
