I am not talking about things like ChatGPT that rely more on raw compute and scaling than some other approaches and are hosted at massive data centers. I actually find their approach wasteful as well. I am talking about some of the open weights models that use a fraction of the resources for similar quality of output. According to some industry experts that will be the way forward anyway as purely making models bigger has limits and is hella expensive.

Another thing to bear in mind is that training a model is more resource intensive than using it, though that's also been worked on.

Bruh you have no idea about the costs. Doubt you have even tried running AI models on your own hardware. There are literally some models that will run on a decent smartphone. Not every LLM is ChatGPT that's enormous in size and resource consumption, and hidden behind a vail of closed source technology.

Also that trick isn't going to work just looking at a comment. Lemmy compresses whitespace because it uses Markdown. It only shows the extra lines when replying.

Can I ask you something? What did Machine Learning do to you? Did a robot kill your wife?

Even if it didn't improve further there are still uses for LLMs we have today. That's only one kind of AI as well, the kind that makes all the images and videos is completely separate. That has come on a long way too.

From what I heard they do actually put a lot of effort into simulating airplane aerodynamics at least for the smaller planes. So the flying part is kind of important.

(Jumping from an insult about dietary preferences to an insult about war crimes is not the same magnitude)

The potato joke is a joke about war crimes even if the person telling it doesn't realize this. They actually responded in kind.

I don't think this is strictly true. They do tweak parts of the kernel such as the CPU scheduler to deal with new CPU designs that come out which have special scheduling requirements. That's actually happened quite a bit recently with AMD and Intel both offering CPUs with asymmetric processors with big and little cores, different clock speeds, different cache, sometimes even different instructions on different cores. They also added ReFS not long ago, which may have required some kernel work.

I can understand though if they have few experienced people and way more junior devs. It would probably explain a lot to be honest. A lot of Microsoft stuff is bloated and/or unreliable.

Still having these issues very recently.

Github has a container register you can use.

Does anybody actually use that feature though?

In a world where this fake shit didn't take hold we could have had real wireless charging by now, if you think the "wireless" charging is good now, just think what true wireless would be like. You could walk into a room and your phone just starts charging with 0 effort. None.

You know this is possible how exactly? Wireless power distribution has been considered since Tesla's time. Yet it still hasn't been done outside of laboratory environments or very short distances. It's definitely possible, but making it practical might not even be possible within physics as we currently understand it.

For example a very power light beam like for example a laser beam can transfer a lot of power over some distance. It would also cook you, burn you, or make you go blind. It would also require precise alignment between transmitter and receiver, as well as very expensive transmission equipment.

Given her condition it's possible she never left hospital after her diagnosis

Read the article again. It said early on her chances were actually quite good, something like 80%
