Regardless of the official definition, the word “habitable” is highly subjective. Extremophiles like tardigrades can survive being frozen and/or completely dehydrated. A planet with an eccentric orbit like this one could hypothetically support species capable of entering some form of extreme hibernation during part of their year.

Whelp, time to move to a small island in the middle of the Pacific.

Couldn’t the underlying tech be applied to non-novel proteins by a bad actor?

Yeah OWUI = Open Web UI. I was referring specifically to rcarmo’s setup though.

Wasn’t aware of LiteLLM, thanks! Are you using it instead of OWUI’s pipeline feature or alongside?

Correct. IMO the official Claude app is pretty garbage. Sonnet 3.5 API + Open-WebUI is amazing though and supports STT+TTS as well as a ton of other great features.

My degree in AgSci has nothing to do with farming?

I’m a programmer with a degree in Agricultural Science so my opinion is oddly relevant to this subject. Please shut up and stop shitting on people’s dreams. Not everything is about profit and scaling. Anyone can and should learn to farm regardless of their background or education.

That’s an odd and hurtful statement to make towards a stranger online. Trust me none of this is a side show for me. I’m an agricultural scientist who deeply cares about global food security and part of that is going to have to be GMOs. The fact that we can’t even try supplementing certain developing markets with golden rice because of a NGO in America where food security is mostly an afterthought is criminal.

You’re not wrong but this is akin to saying that we shouldn’t treat gunshot wounds because we need better gun control. We can do both.

You are philosophically correct but the flaw with this argument is time and $$$. With each passing year millions of people around the world die or go blind from vitamin A deficiency. Most of these cases are due to an over-reliance on white rice in particular, making golden rice essentially a drop-in solution for much of the world’s poorest. The goal is (or should be) to stop the bleeding with golden rice while also investing in and providing education around more diverse agricultural production.

Been furious about this one for years. When the alternative is death and/or going blind who the fuck cares if there’s side effects? No one is saying it should end up in American grocery stores without proper testing but it could save and improve millions of lives around the world. For those who don’t know Greenpeace is essentially leading the campaign against GR via millions in “Zero GMO” funding. That kind of mindset won’t last long once wealthy nations start experiencing crop shortages caused by CC. Maize production will be first.

Regardless of emergence, in the context of "putting safety at the frontier" I would expect Claude 3 to be augmented with very basic tools like calculators to minimize such trivial hallucinations. I say this as someone rooting for Anthropic.

Doesn’t it only run iPad apps?

This is targeted towards GPU rental services like RunPod as well as API providers such as together AI. Together.ai is charging $0.90/1M tokens at 70B parameters. https://www.together.ai/pricing
