Does anyone have inside info on what these Huawai chips look like? I know Google has a Torus architecture unlike Nvidias fully connected one. Maybe it’s a similar architectural decision on the huawai chips that leads to bottlenecks in serving?
> MCP gives us a registry such that we can enforce MCP chain policies
Do you have some more info on it?
looking up "registry" in the mcp spec will just describe a centrally hosted, npm-like package registry[^1]
[^1]: The MCP Registry is the official centralized metadata repository for publicly accessible MCP servers, backed by major trusted contributors to the MCP ecosystem such as Anthropic, GitHub, PulseMCP, and Microsoft.
This is such an usually low signal FUD post for HN. I know I am not adding anything of value here either, but I couldn’t help myself. Please post something with more substance here.
We all notice a shift in the general perception of the SaaS industry. People are afraid, massive change is coming. But that is obvious from all the posts in news outlets, on x, on Reddit etc.
Thus far it’s just a massive hype. The technology has the potential to switch up the business, for sure, but now apart from frontier labs for everyone else it’s just eating money. No company has lost clients due to being replaced by some autonomous agent.
Don’t get me wrong, the technology has the potential, and it will improve, and we will see massive changes. Money will flow to different entities (cloud providers? New players? Who knows). But technology still needs to be shaped into a useful product. Even for coding (undoubtedly the most mature use case for AI agents) the agents still have to demonstrate they actually safe time and money in the long run. So far it looks like they mostly create more work.
Probably it’s not about gaining a competitive advantage but more about bringing down the costs to run frontier models in the EU to a level where it’s a viable enough option to bring down the risk of relying on the US and china entirely.
Not even just for on-premise deployments, even for cloud settings. Google has demonstrated that you can profit very much from having your own specialized AI chips to bring down cloud costs. Maybe the EU with all the talks about giga AI factories is also planning to go in that direction instead of continuing to rely on overpriced NVIDIA chips.
All openAI models are available in the EU landing zones of Azure, run by Microsoft EU subsidiaries and in EU datacenters. Other than an irrational fear of them „phoning home“, there is no advantage here for Mistral.
This is one of many laws the EU and member states are pushing in order to implement more online surveillance. I always wonder why individuals (representatives) would push for these kind of surveillance laws? I think politicians usually pass laws which help themselves or their lobbies gain power and influence on economical levels, but I wonder why anyone would push for these kind of legislation even before an authoritarian state is on place. What is there to gain on an individual level?
