Where? Going to Shenzhen soon after a long hiatus and need tips.

Thanks for that link -- deserves more attention.

> Free Software types already do for all software

Free Software types also create software...they didn't just argue for a better license and try to regulate Sun/others to re-license their software; they wrote free (libre) versions of proprietary software and released it for free (cost), which is what counteracted the "[putting] what they make behind a wall". If you're saying "[some] LLMs should be free", I agree.

Looks excellent -- thanks; shame older intel macs don't get it (a lot of those still around)

Those of us whose appreciation of da Vinci's mastery are not affected by him painting the Mona Lisa with a moustache are keeping you in our thoughts.

(non-snark: your reply is clever and got a smile but I still think the GP post is overriding: no need for the distraction (c.f.: these asides) of the "S(c)am" swipe)

> Tiananmen square

The Tiananmen Square killings happened independent of one's "worldview".

What's an example of "the exact same thing" done to OpenAI models by western governments?

> you can combine Spark with M3U, the former streaming the compute, lowering TTFT, the latter doing the token generation part

Are you doing this with vLLM, or some other model-running library/setup?

Sounds interesting; can you suggest any good discussions of this (on the web)?

> with same success you can prove bias in western models.

What are some examples? (curious, as a westerner)

Are there "bias" benchmarks? (I ask, rather than just search, because: bias)

> when do we stop this kind of polarization?

When the tool isn't polarized. I wouldn't use a wrench with an objectionable symbol on it.

> You don't forecast weather with image detection model

What do you do with a large language model? I think most people put language in and get language out. Plenty of people are going to look askance at statements like "the devil is really good at coding, so let's use him for that only". Do you think it should be illegal/not allowed to not hire a person because they have political beliefs you don't like?

> I'm tired of this example everyone tests out, I think it undermines the researchers and engineers hard work.

It's completely valid, IMO. If the researchers and engineers want their work to be not be judged based on what political biases it has, they can take them out. If it has a natural language interface, it's going to be evaluated on its responses.

Can you elaborate a bit on your setup if you have time?

Normally I would say you're right, but I read the context opposite to you; I read the "fine" as a straight/literal statement: the author of "this is fine" is disputing the author's parent's statement that "this can be considered [a bug]".

"Axial motors" don't seem to have been discussed much here; In 2022 there was some discussion of the flaws ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30816149 ).
