I'm not saying they are alive, they have consciousness, etc. But do we really know how LLM's(and the layers above, harness, RL, etc) work, or is there some emergent, surprising phenomena in those systems?

It's probably for the better over the long term, I Agree. We might be getting into complicated times, with AI and robotics, so it's much better if Europe would be more self-sufficient, militarily, technologicaly and economicaly.

It's not just inference, some things done in data centers like simulations, testing, are complementary to inference. And in these types of hardware, the time between a successful prototype and a fully deployed product is pretty long. M

Maybe it would make sense for a single type of a desktop/laptop, for some use cases. I would be more expensive, but maybe the performance would be worth it.

True. Well what can be expected from a thread with that hilarious title?

What put the fear of god in governments, was the great depression(which is an indirect a result of the industrial revolution), terrible leaders rising because of it, and WWII as the result. We already have terrible leaders in many places, w

But it seems relative immune to the current rise of populism. Not a bad tradeoff, all included.

The Californian company probably opens their new plant in Missouri, so now it's not exactly a Californian company.

Let's say I'm a German small business owner. Tomorrow Europe becomes a single market. How do I compete with a similar business but from a country where business costs are significantly lower ?

This rests on the assumption that AI can't do weird stuff. I think it depends. For measurable goals and simulatable systems, AI and other methods like evolutionary optimization can create weird things on their own. But what if the goal

I agree that the winners would be doing stuff in the physical world. And there I think the winner would be China.

What is the baseline, roughly? Let's say I want to be useful in a given domain(one with rich machine feedback), with the help of the AI, what should I study ?

A lot of the leet code problems are "math shaped". LLM's are pretty strong at that. My guess is that interview questions would test your skills combined with the llm, because when testing skill without, the difference is just

Regarding speed - now it takes much less learning to use a fast web framework(like Meteor), this means web based software will be more performant. Regarding security - i wonder: can we develop a framework that is responsible to 100% of the

I wonder: in world where inference is cheap, how many engineering agents that use simulation as their feedback we will use? In the scenario, engineering everything becomes so easy - so why not optimize everything? every component, every pr

There are just so many new technologies, some just as software, some in hardware,food,medicine, etc. But maybe it makes it harder to get excited from most things. For example, once you browse Anna's library, or ask Claude to develop so

China is different - the state probably has impact on cpu/mcu vendor selection.

Is there a way in Wolfram to check whether all function names exist ? And than give it as feedback to the llm?

Microsoft's taste was "good enough". They lost because of an app ecosystem, and because of Apple's brand power, the same way beautiful Chinese shoes will lose to Nike.

Maybe AMD will do a 3D memory layer for this chip for the kv cache. Possibly even something more dense than SRAM, like cgram, when it's ready. Could this enable a reasonable context size ?

You could probably do real-time deep research using that method, and than summarize and ask questions about the results. That is a probably a significant jump in search quality for many queries, that people didn't take the time to rese

They can do 7nm. But they use multiple patterning(printing the same pattern multiple times to get to 7nm), which is expensive. So it's not comparable on cost to western single-patterning 7nm, and of course not to the leading edge on co

AMD can let the SRAM be on a different chip. Maybe even something similar to their 3D cache. that could increase density to 20B[1]. They could also move from 6nm to 2nm. that would probably increase density by another 3x to 60B. Add a bunch

I'm sure Europe currently uses the surveillance capabilities of those systems to prevent bad shit from happening. So maybe they prefer another solution to the sovereignty issue.
