If payloads to LLMs are being passed around to various nodes, even trusted ones (like friends and family), it gets awkward if you send something very personal. Think sending a medical question to medgemma:27b.

Does Mesh LLM encrypt the payload between nodes? Is it possible to read requests from other users?

Good point. I know cocompute is working on splitting, but it’s not there yet; I was referring to the round-robin delegation within a trusted pool. Mesh LLM looks great too!

cocompute.ai is already doing this really well.

Just do what I did: ignore your orthodontist and wear them only at night, smashing them into your mouth like some kind of idiotic brute. 4 years later, great teeth!

LLMs won’t lead to AGI. Almost by definition, they can’t. The thought experiment I use constantly to explain this: Train an LLM on all human knowledge up to 1905 and see if it comes up with General Relativity. It won’t. We’ll need additiona

I created an open source tool to help apps stay near the Dunbar Number: https://highlyprobable.io/articles/ten-cubed . I think the concept of social networks is interesting, but the ultimate unbounded result is a disast

I've always been confused by this First Amendment argument with regards to TikTok: they're an organization that has been tied directly with an adversarial foreign state. How is this a rational take? Using this logic, Russia should

"Silence" is a problematic term. For me, that word encompasses: squeaky chairs, typing on a loud keyboard, moving objects around on my table, etc. In a perfect world, Whisper —like a human— can easily distinguish a human voice fro

Does anyone know if this new model handles silence better? I was trying to use whisper for transcribing bursts of talking amid large spans of silence, but the frequency of hallucinations was too high.

I just wrote a script with Hazel to automatically transcribe my voice notes to txt. It handles punctuation extremely well. What a wonderful contribution!

Simply put: your state exists on each client and the mechanism to reconcile that state across clients is not mission critical. Almost all apps currently are built to get their state from a centralized, remote location. This is easy to build

I don't think this analogy works. I think it is more akin to police opening a folder and seeing paper evidence, but having no idea who put the paper there, when it was last opened/modified and unable to determine if the evidence i

I'm glad to see this article is eliciting in others the same reaction I had when reading it. I'm a huge fan of Linear and use it for our company, but this article just has so much hand-waving going on it's staggering. Where i

Man, this is why self-driving cars can’t come soon enough. Everyone else’s replies to this already sort of answer your question, but for me this hints at the bigger issue: people don’t take driving seriously. My counter is: why do you need

Yep, I was just highlighting the fact that most articles about Level 2 or, in general, < Level 4, are written with a concern for situational awareness. In my experience, it was the opposite: it improved it.

It's interesting reading articles about Level 2 and how it can adversely affect driver attention. I was concerned when I started driving a Tesla for the same reasons. Would I grow complacent? Stop paying attention? The opposite happene
