I would not say Johnny Harris is a reliable source

Anyone from the local llama communities experienced with Gemma models?

I’ve heard good things but I only use Mistral because it’s proved the most versatile.

I’ve been curious about google coral, but their memory is so tiny I’m not sure what kinds of models you can run on them

If nothing else the atproto is pretty great, we’re starting to see a proper federated net start opening up around it.

Waiting for a 8x1B MoE

Anyone else remember when people were making expert systems with scheme and saying that was the end of doctors etc?

I could be mistaken too, this has all only recently become interoperable so there’s some growing pains

Isn’t that what Whitewind is doing?

Yes! Actually.

The full atproto up and running with bluesky is only in the last month or so, so people are finally starting to trickle out and set up their own services and hosts.

It’s actually very promising and hopeful.

This doesn’t seem to be that big an issue as PDS’s can just directly communicate with one-another like how ActivityPub works.

I wouldn’t lump bluesky in the same pile as threads anymore, the atprotocol is fully up and running and slowly but surely individually hosted data servers are trickling out and away to their own services.

There’s even new services running completely independent of bluesky running on atproto now: https://whtwnd.com/about

If you treat an AI like anything other than the rubber duck in Rubber Duck Programming you’re using it wrong.

What’s great about lawsuits like this is you really only have to prove intent and they have a record of them asking for similar imagery.

For awhile Firefox’s JavaScript engine used more memory, but those gaps have been mostly filled.

Alongside the EPA for constantly getting in the way of the FAA trying to slip his SpaceX flight licenses through with a wink and a nudge instead of properly following regulations, and the FAA for trying to keep a semblance of legality through the whole process.
