depends on the framing. if the chinese models have this aura of inferior quality around them, then sure. if they manage to frame it instead as open source, sovereign AI, the calculus changes.

The high volume site-to-site data transfers for running simulation etc reminds me strongly of the high energy physics computing world. no wonder so many HEP folks ended up at HRT!
Apple has reinvented cycle scavenging about 40 years later.
I'm hardly AI-pilled but these are lovely parent/child apps. Kudos
when I was a student in the waning days of Sun, the SPARC/Solaris machines were impenetrable Big Iron guarded closely by the greybeards -- not to be touched by the likes of mere undergrads. Never really did get beyond…
Drat, I was hoping this article would be about outlawing Kubernetes.
The invisible guardrails are a test run for the invisible enshittification. Just wait til they start dialing down ability to better absorb peak demand or simply to have more profitable inference
IIRC, this is the same lab who created Glaze.
Do you think this will be a trend for larger companies as well? The decadal move to all-cloud-all-the-time killed off in-house hardware teams while the C-suite chased their OpEx dreams. It would be interesting if we…
My observation is that the true believers really don't want to think of models as an inert pile of weights. There's some mysticism attached to imagining it's the ship's computer from Star Trek, HAL-9000 or C-3PO. A file…
100% the same problem here. I have to show people extremely zoomed-in screenshots of how $VENDOR default monospaced fonts get rendered compared to Terminus at the correct size in order for them to understand my pain.…
Bellringing, specifically change ringing. It’s a type of church bell ringing that is rather algorithmic in nature. Tends to attract mathy types. Religion not required or expected! If you have English-style tower bells…
> Their only original idea was Metaverse surely you must be joking.

bcantrill gave a great talk many years ago about compute-data locality. would be nice to know if those ideas panned out for some customers, but it seems the world has by-and-large continued to schlep data back and…
Random assortment of projects as time allows with the $JOB. - Prototyping a cute little SSH-based sorta-BBS, inspired by the Spring '83 protocol, but terminal-centric rather than web-based. It's called Winter '78, and…
CephFS implements a (fully?) POSIX filesystem while it seems that TernFS makes tradeoffs by losing permissions and mutability for further scale. Their docs mention they have a custom kernel module, which I suppose is…
Does their training corpus respect copyrights or do you have to follow their opt out procedure to keep them from consuming your data? Assuming it’s the latter, it’s open-er but still not quite there.
I feel that the article draws a false equivalence between skepticism and doomsaying. If anything, thinking AI is as dangerous as a nuclear weapon signals a true believer.
just wait for the AI summary
Not to pick on you, but there are always posts like this in every Erlang thread. One is not strictly superior to the other, and the BEAM community benefits from the variety IMO.
I wouldn't mind the Erlang-dominated front page coming back :)
Containerization is amazingly great for scientific computing. I don’t ever want to go back to doing the make && make install dance and praying I’ve got my dependency ducks in a row.
This sounds super cool! Any public code you can share?
