https://www.cnbc.com/2023/11/20/microsoft-ceo-nadella-says-openai-governance-needs-to-change-no-matter-where-altman-ends-up.html lol power moves from Satya. RIP all these idealistic geeks who thought they were building something for the benefit of mankind. Good chance OpenAI ends up basically...

"Never let a crisis go to waste." lol marc

Dollar coming down and lower bond yields should send US equities higher. The dollars got a long way to fall before it's even remotely a problem. Oil will creep up though, but we're pumping like crazy.

What I'm saying is that this maneuvering, no matter how lolworthy, isn't directly applicable to other corporate governance structures.

I doubt any of this is broadly applicable to other businesses, because OpenAI was never originally supposed to be a for-profit company. That makes it a pretty poor case-study, in terms of being able to generalize for other similar scenarios. And who the fuck knows, AI might solve business in a...

The ideas are all basically free already. It's all based on public research, largely seven years old. Most of the special sauce is at the application/presentation level, which is that last layer of filtering in the browser or app.

With bond yields retreating, the dollar is weakening slightly from its highs.

Yeah, teams of people making potentially world-altering technologies should absolutely be making these kinds of decisions on very little sleep. I really hope this shit just turns out to be really expensive autocomplete.

Haha, with a little help from Bing AI:

Anyone who originally signed on to a non-profit to build safe AI is also not going to be a good fit at MSFT. They're literally another EA cult, like FTX:

Fairly close to the truth. But MSFT's ability to pump out those chips is still limited by total foundry/fab capacity. We're going to be in a GPU-constrained world for a long time.

Sure, not sure their competitors want 2-year-old model weights at this point, but some might. The pruned training sets are probably valuable, but not billions of dollars valuable. for anyone that wants to read what the former Twitch CEO has to say about this. My outside read on all of this...

They already have the model weights for the models that have already been trained. They probably have the training sets too. There's very little other assets they might even want. The code that generates new foundational models from a training set is actually quite small, laughably small...

lol bitcoin maxis thinking the rest of the world cares about Argentina or BTC.

These are products, mainly built for inclusion in deployable enterprise applications. No one wants customer-facing chatbot that starts yelling "HITLER WAS RIGHT" in the middle of talking about returning the menorah grandma bought from Homegoods. It's not "woke", it's basic business...

Only in the minds of crazy people obsessed with anti-woke. They're mostly to make sure they're not used as cyberweapons. I already saw one demo last week that could automatically generate exploit payloads for over a decade's worth of legacy vulnerabilities that are often found on unpatched...

Also, Meta trying to bury this in the shuffle: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/11/18/facebook-parent-meta-breaks-up-its-responsible-ai-team.html So the people handing out open source models to the world has no AI safety team anymore. Cool. Humanity, going just great. OH SHIT, new news: Shit...

https://www.cnbc.com/2023/11/20/ousted-openai-head-sam-altman-to-lead-microsofts-new-ai-team-ceo-nadella-says.html OpenAI pivoting to Thot GPTs, confirmed? The drama continues!

Me and @Flobee in 100% agreement, things have gotta be fucking fucked. We're doomed.

Old fucking news.

I hope they just delete the world buffs for this. Fucking stupid mechanic. If they don't, I'm not playing at endgame.

I wanna play a rogue again but I'm just afraid the community for this is going to be absolutely toxic trash, so I'm not getting my hopes up.

Yeah, I'm expecting massive layering.

The servers are supposedly very large, like 5-10x the size of original classic realms. I would not expect lots of servers.

Architect or Principal Engineer.

I don't hate the idea of you being a software engineer, you just sound like a salesman to me. If you are a software engineer, you picked the wrong side of house.

This should scare you, because it's true: They know this product can never be profitable on its own. No amount of subscriptions and tokens will cover the cost of the thing they're intent on building. It takes a cult to build a god.

Literal this literally happening and we're literally not stopping it:

It's all about what Satya wants. This is the most expensive project any private enterprise has ever undertaken. OpenAI needs tons of cash to keep training, and only a few companies have even close to the kind of cash required. https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~eunsol/courses/data/bitter_lesson.pdf...

They were founded as a non-profit. That their mission is such shouldn't be surprising. They converted to some weird "capped profit" structure before Microsoft injected them with cash. The longer this plays out, the more it looks like this was the board attempting to stave off a hostile...

Except when they occasionally fuck up an update and nearly brick the fucking thing. But hey, it runs Retroarch really fucking well for a streaming box. Wish they'd come out with a new one.

lol I do not understand how humanity survives this decade. Once I get sick of this winter, I think I'm just gonna take my money to Vegas and chill there til it runs out.

More like:

Most web-based streaming services will not output true 4K HDR on Windows PCs.

NVidia Shield.

Satya and Sam are playing some Cersei shit. This is CRAZY. Reports are saying Sam may come back with Satya's help and replace the board. This is the stuff of legends, all occuring over potentially the most powerful, resource-intensive technology ever made.

PCs make terrible streaming-app players on high-end TVs, because most of them are fucky about HDR because Windows still sucks with HDR. Some streaming apps on PC won't even play shit in 4K for reasons. You're much better off with an Nvidia Shield or a high-end Roku device. Or just using a...

It would mainly be an issue during the installation or patching of games, not at run-time. Run-time reads are just not that intensive. Bloop bloop load the level assets, done. But Steam's download and installation process is insanely disk/CPU intensive, and so is their patching process...
