This is very obviously a public excuse to remove him because they don’t want to publicly explain the real reasons.

He must oppose a major decision. The chips are already used for killer drones so it must be something even darker.

I would say it’s not for AI but they are taking another shot at remote gaming and will challenge Sony. Those 130 facilities will allow them to have very small latency.

It could also mean that 9 till 5 people don’t like change and people who are willing to go the extra mile are willing to explore AI.

Why?

Then you don’t understand why long term reliable customers are better than intermittent ones…

It’s a numbers game. Are there so many? Why else would a company care?

Be honest, you just hope that the sheer amount of resources will lead to some country finally finish https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Hurd

Sorry, that was meant hypothetically and not personal. I meant that the Russian situation is always possible. The state always thinks that his actions are justified while the citizens may have other preferences.

That’s your preference for punishment.

What I was wondering was if your sister could prefer to be called an asshole by a friend over being called one by you. Perhaps she hopes that your disagreements don’t escalate and that you perceive her needs not as annoying but as valid.

Or speaking about China, being able to feel safe in one’s own country could be more valuable than the losses from leaked information to China.

and stepping on personal rights.

The racial make-up of the prison population suggests that the lead is not that big.

Of course, but what would she prefer?

His is such a bad company but so poorly run by its dictator.

Publishing their LLM wasn’t such a bad idea. If China hadn’t caught up, everybody would be praising Meta right now.

Jumper announced in June that he was leaving DeepMind to join Anthropic.

Key people were leaving.

Other former staff members were reassigned to Alphabet’s drug-discovery company Isomorphic Labs, which is a DeepMind spin-off.

It’s not as bad as the headline makes it sound.

Read the bold parts of my quote.

The important part:

According to accounts by Kristin Enmark, one of the hostages, the authorities were careless, and their initial approach to the robbers nearly compromised the hostages’ safety.[7] Enmark criticized Sweden’s prime minister, Olof Palme, for endangering their lives. Palme believed that if Olsson saw one of his close relatives, he might be willing to surrender the hostages; however, the police made a careless mistake. They misidentified Olsson and sent a 16-year-old boy who was unrelated into the bank. This caused confusion and resulted in Olsson firing rounds at the boy, who barely escaped. Olsson became much more agitated in general. After that, Enmark and the other three hostages were fearful that they were just as likely to be killed by police incompetence as by the robbers.

Ultimately, Enmark explained she was more afraid of the police, whose attitude seemed to be a much larger, direct threat to her life than the robbers.[10] Enmark spent decades maintaining that she had no affinity for her captors; she only did what it took to stay alive during the ordeal.

This would be a major issue in EU, where such data is legally protected.

Nothing a EU–US Data Privacy Framework can’t handle.

Buying Time Warner seems poisoned for digital companies, or their owners.

Their DDR5 chips are 30% more expensive, but they are willing to sell 10% below market rates.

The article says that they won’t catch up in 2027 but I expect China to pour in resources to catch that opportunity.

Plot twist: by 2028 the RAM upgrade still costs more than the rest of the machine combined.

Won’t at least China have production capacities ready by then that make the price drop?

offer nothing substantive

Like industrial farming, there is nothing new, but now everybody can create memes and create software. Society will change.

They can only do that because Microsoft dropped the ball and there is no real competition in sight.
