I don't need to... Muricans took care of destroying democracy all on their own

I didn't really need another reason to love Debian more but here we are... I'm donating to Debian today

as opposed to OpenAI which also stores keystrokes and then sells them to anyone who'd pay?

What data? they one OpenAI illegally obtained first?!

The USA is already behind... and education is a thing that takes decades to pump or destroy. Even if the USA turns ship now (and they are not) the damage has been done for at least 2 generations of students.

The damage has been mitigated by importing so many smart people from elsewhere... but even that is getting destroyed so there is no saving it anymore

sure, but that can be said of literally anything. It would be interesting if LLM were at least new but they have been around forever, we just now have better hardware to run them

agreed, we are making the same point. Very little in the world of investment seems to be based on actual value anymore

100% right

What could Putin have that could threaten Europe when he has been unable to make inroads in Ukraine for years?

Besides that, a lot of the value is derived from the market trying to figure out if/what company will develop AGI. Whatever company manages to achieve it will easily become the most valuable company in the world, so people fomo into any AI company that seems promising.

There is zero reason to think the current slop generating technoparrots will ever lead into AGI. That premise is entirely made up to fuel the current "AI" bubble

Not necessarily... if I gave you my "faster car" for you to run on your private 7 lane highway, you can definitely squeeze every last bit of the speed the car gives, but no more.

DeepSeek works as intended on 1% of the hardware the others allegedly "require" (allegedly, remember this is all a super hype bubble)... if you run it on super powerful machines, it will perform nicer but only to a certain extend... it will not suddenly develop more/better qualities just because the hardware it runs on is better

Fancy word foot work for "speculation"

we really are living in the beginnings of a fascist regime, and we are meekly accepting it.

Ding ding ding

Yes but that's not the point... If you can buy a house for $1000 nobody would buy a similar house for $500000

Eventually the field would even out and maybe demand would surpass current levels, but for the time being, Nvidia's offer seem to be a giant surplus and speculators will speculate

DeepSeek proved you didn't need anywhere near as much hardware to train or run an even better AI model

Imagine what would happen to oil prices if a manufacturer comes out with a full ice car that can run 1000 miles per gallon... Instead of the standard American 3 miles per 1.5 gallons hehehe
