It might make even more sense once we get to the point of a wider use of encoding the data into dna. For now we have these few commercial players in the field that cad do it (eg look up dna microfactory for storage archiving), IIRC genomika was saying they can do an MB for a 100-200eur.
I did masters in a similar way, just to get some credentials and fill in the gaps and learn something new. There is an idealistic part to it which is quite romantic as you spend the nights learning and doing the assignments. The structure of such online based learning systems is great for a determined person. However the “other” part of such courses are cheating and ai use. It is depressing to know that the specific credentials prove little because of it. So the only valid signal is: this person did not quit and they know how to write a report, use references. You’d need to test them to fully validate the credential.
I do not trust either but you have to at least agree that having some sort of mutually recognised data privacy framework is a good idea because the courts can enforce it then. Saying everything must be from EU is also slightly silly and we should instead have something similar like certification (cyber act ?) to ensure enough competition exists to avoid service degradation. IMO cryptography could be the answer to many privacy related issues for the cross border transfers.
Also these decisions related where the data is stored and which service is used are under control of each commercial org buying them. The risks are assessed at the end of the day and in case of any issues the providers change. Why would a publicly funded org store citizen data in the US is a question regardless of privacy laws though.
Privacy laws are actually one of the very useful things that came out. It is difficult to do the same in the US because of the business lobby. It is crazy that US citizens data can be purchased in the “black” market and the used by the agencies. Leaving tech companies to self regulate is just not viable and it is proven time and time again they cannot do it.
China is building for sure, but Russia? The majority of russia does not have normal roads, full of crappy old trains, and infrastructure which was built in the soviet times. Russia is a joke of a country, oligarchy and kleptocracy rules.
This example is a bit over the top and is more of an edge case, subagents of the same session can use the same VM because what is the point to isolate among them? If at least one subagent is trying to hack you then I would consider the whole session was compromised anyway as you cannot guarantee the agents leaking this among themselves.
Yeah I have some stuff which is supposed to be “there” for months with the agents continually moving it forward. Not to mention the need to run different software. Running local VMs for now.
I just went with qemu and run it in my own machine. It is portable so you run it on other OSes which is handy when everything is under the same desktop app. But I was after better isolation and the ability to be fully in control of the agent environment to pair with local llms. As soon as you lift it to some managed environment it becomes hard to justify all of the necessary steps to manage connections, encryption etc., eg passing credentials for access to other resources.
I do not see how it is clear and which license is affected. People mix up agpl license terms which is not clear if being violated here and copyright based on branding. agpl does not cover the looks, it is all about the copy-left nature and code availability. I use the same licensing but struggle to so how could you enforce it if the code is different (not sure if it is different here).
Being a bot of a devils advocate here. What I do not understand if it just looks similar, or implements the same features, or the code is actually copied and modified, i.e. the source is obviously from papermark. I think interfaces can be copied, thinking along the lines of implementing a protocol or a feature, so that would be legit. The UI looks very similar but if this is a totally different code then what? is it copyright infringement on the look and feel of the papermark brand?
Clearly it should be an issue for the investors anyway as it “looks” like a copy in the tweet alone, it might mean this code will eventually become available from download to comply with agpl, which in turn wipes out any moat.
Anyone can move the needle. Saying that languages are solved is not accurate as well. You could raise different questions like maybe model grounded in a different language will make it more efficient in some tasks, maybe language structure matters for a multidimentional space, maybe that matters for the distillation, etc. It is all about the ideas and their exchange, not about the investment rounds and MAU.
They have quite short cancellation notices and there is a question why do you need to rent it if you are an ai company? How is it grok not running the world using that compute.. And possible cancellation will erase a large income stream, think when gpus get old or sooner when Google does not need it anymore.
It is crazy that anything Europe gets so much hate. IMO it is important to build models within the boundaries of smaller nations, using their own language. Research has to continue even if it is outside of US and China.
Very much similar thoughts. The examples provided are not nerds, except a few. It is just tech is a lucrative path to make money and it attracts a variety of “interesting” personalities, specifically those that can captivate and persuade masses to invest in them. By all means tech is just a means to an end to such founders. A nerd is someone who is interested in tech for the sake of it, because it is beautiful, not because it will aid drones in killing targets more efficiently and not because it will land a great contract.
This takes me back close to 15 years ago: using backend session management in Grails and the html forms that were enhanced with “some” JS, using responsive CSS. The difference at that time was browser tech not being as advanced as now, we had to care for different browsers and deal with IE7 and even IE6, it was difficult and we needed extensive QA (Browserstack would appear later). There is a reason why we had JS library evolution. Dude there was no npm, not even bower. Then we had Backbone.js - loved it, then AngularJS - amazing, then Angular version which had huge breaking changes then React, Polymer etc. Native browsers can do a lot these days, it is easy to enhance the functionality as well. But it was not always the same, the decisions to use React made sense for a variety of reasons at the time, maybe it was the case here as well.
PCC is supposed to work only on Apple silicon. You are supposed to trust that the input will be decrypted within the enclave which is next to inference engine on the same box. This way you know the input does not leave the server. If they offload to another server (eg google) then the privacy boundary is broken, once it leaves the enclave. Microsoft does it differently, where inference is confidential so more guarantees if that could be replicated.
Europeans support that by and large. So either agree or have no ability to sell. This idea that companies know better about their users’ needs including privacy and choice is ridiculous. Apple is not a small company which is bullied as well.
