31 years after Microsoft Bob, IBM releases it's own IBM Bob. :)

So "Europe's Leading AI Model" is just a modified Chinese model which does worse than the better Chinese models?

It seems Europe is many years behind in tech. Maybe for AI models they are just a decade behind, but as far as producing hardware capable to run SOA models they lag tens of years.

>I don't want my model to reflect the views of American oligarchs or Chinese cadres. I want European values of enlightenment and humanitarianism to be the default.

I don't want AI models to reflect any kind of values whatsoever. I have my own views - thank you - and I don't need other throwing their values in my face using AI.

I prefer AI models not being trained ideologically.

What about the problems negative externalities from unchecked crowding and bus culture? Like overcrowding, sky high prices for housing, very high prices for everything, broken infrastructure that is to expensive to fix and over capacity?

>so that the people who live in them aren't unfairly pushing costs onto other people in society

>The money generated from these endeavours could be used to fund the development of mass public transportation infrastructure in more, dense, sustainable areas

So you still want to tax some people to subsidize other people. Why?

In Germany they penalize using cars by taxing cars and fuels. They reward using public transport by subsidizing it. Car owners pay so public transit users get cheaper rides.

So people are using public transit in Germany not because they love to but because they are forced to.

And the system is far from perfect, Germans are complaining because public transportation is having a lot of delays. You can't reach every point you need, you have to wait and some times public transportation is dirty and filled with dirty, rude, violent people, drug addicts and drunks. Not a lovely way to travel.

And there are also other parts for reducing the pollution like DPF, EGR and Adblue systems.

Unfortunately they also reduce the reliability.

Just a little taste of the European bureaucracy.

The whole reality is much worse.

Our best hope for non US citizens is for the Chinese companies to continue to improve their models.

>but I don't think the rate of improvement of compute/watt will match the previous decades.

Unless we invest heavily in research and find new way to do chips. But I think there's not enough motivation and money to do that.

>But, history says the supercomputer of today will fit in your pocket in a few years.

That was Moore's law saying that. And it seems Moore's law slowed down quite a bit for now.
