Well, Trump won’t be alive next time Russia will invade them again.

The co2 used is a fixed amount that resides in a closed loop and never gets released to make the battery work.

Try not to make a fool of yourself next time or you’ll damage the ideals you are fighting for.

That’s not exactly what Lecun said, he simply was criticizing the commercial approach of Meta and the lack of research. He himself thinks he can do more with just a different approach, not “unknown” tech.

Meta, however, is only one of the companies working on it and they seem considerably behind competition currently.

People complaining that things crash is in fact very anecdotal and, even if it was true, LLMs being not that good yet isn’t news and we aren’t talking about that.

Same goes for the fact that LLMs aren’t anywhere close to AGI, like marketing teams try to pretend.

On the other hand though, I have heard university professors saying that coding through LLMs is improving constantly and so rapidly that they think it is very likely that they will become widely used tools even for professional programmers in the near future.

The time saving is game changing for any such activity.

Should be also noted that we are seeing big improvements in time frames of months and LLMs have been “mainstream” for not that long yet. It’s so early to say what can or cannot be achieved in my opinion.

Lastly, I’m not saying the bubble won’t pop. If I had to make a prediction the bubble will pop, some companies will burn to the ground but some others won’t because they were playing a different game the whole time (Google is the first example that comes to mind), which is why I think it won’t be the catharsis every anti-AI person is waiting for.

As for AGI, I would dare to say that we’ll get there too, but it’s a useless prediction with no value.

Why should they hide if AI companies are doing it too and even profiting from it without repercussions?

News headlines in my country are like “Spotify attacked!!”, “Millions of music tracks stolen!!”.

Hilarious…

The article also mentions that they can deflate it in around 10 hours

Sounds pretty good

Is it though?

I genuinely fear you all waiting for that supreme bubble burst will be either left waiting or be extremely disappointed when it happens.

Time will tell I guess.

I am sorry to tell you that nowhere is “cool”. Or at least nowhere the main online services are located.

This and also the models are growing and, assuming it will be achieved, AGI will require even more energy.

To be objectively honest, all the useful things you listed are and always have been available elsewhere in the internet.

What are you blabbering about?

Yep, but you know people like to cry when things change…

That’s factually wrong, you should probably get out of your bubble from time to time.

So you would erase a technology just because your “peers” use it for “cheating”.

Sounds like a very boomerish reasoning, are you sure you are in 12th grade?

What AI feature are you currently seeing on mobile?

That’s one of the uses of AI I look forward to, not through a closed source paid service though.

No worries, I am not reading it as preaching.

Basically what I try to do is minimizing the interaction with Google and have some sort of redundancy.

So on my phone I connect to a VPN server and use NewPipe for music. I’m fine with that considering that it is just music and lots of people could have similar activity.

On desktop I connect to another VPN server and use Piped (or Invidious) because the content I watch is mainly from my country (different than the server location although I’d still avoid it no matter the location) and I feel like I could easily be the only one doing it, so even if it is a VPN IP I prefer to not associate it at all with my activity.

Also the server I usually use is blocked by Google anyway, same goes for others that I frequently use on desktop.

In the case I REALLY need to open a YouTube video I do it only on desktop through Mullvad Browser from yet another server that isn’t blocked by Google

On top of that I don’t have a google account and I don’t use other Google services, not even Play Services on my phone.

Disclaimer: I’m not an expert of anything involved here, I just follow my instinct 🤣 so if something I do seems uselessly complicated, it probably is.

All the supposed changes are only about Firefox not Gecko and we haven’t seen anything yet, so what’s the direction they are headed in?

Just relax and see what comes instead of losing confidence before anything happens.
