What is missing from the picture with all these articles is the numbers. LLMs already have a few solid use cases as translators, general document processors, coding helpers ...etc. So the first question is, to what extent does this demand support the investment? Would it be enough if basically every SP500 corp provided paid LLM access to their employees? Or is the investment so big, that people are betting on less solid applications, like Agentic AI, with some non-trivial automation?
If AI replaces workers, we wouldn't have an economy. It would probably be the end of capitalism. Or at least the end of the consumerism driven capitalism that we have known since the end of WWII. I don't know what would follow but it probably wouldn't be pretty. Honestly at that point, I could see the end of humanity. If truly we get to the point that machine intelligence is more capable and people are entirely marginalized then it's game over. At best a few human specimen end up on display in zoos, but maybe machines might not even have any use for zoos, since they can just share "experience" digitally.
Car ownership is pretty expensive. But holistically speaking it's not more expensive than the Deutschland Ticket, because it gives you access to cheaper housing options that you wouldn't be able to live in if you depended solely on public transport.
Interesting. Thanks for you input. I already tried to adhere to the JAX paradigm as laid out in the documentation so I already have a fully static graph.
I recently tried to port my model to JAX. Got it all working the "JAX WAY", and I believe I did everything correct, with one neat top level .jit() applied to the training step. Unfortunately I could not replicate the performance boost of torch.compile(). I have not yet delved under the hood to find the culprit, but my model is fairly simple so I was sort of expecting JAX JIT to perform just as well if not better than torch.compile().
Hypothetically speaking, if the average Chinese person was as wealthy as the average American, how would that affect the world economy and geopolitics? What is America so afraid of?
