Oh ok, good, because we're talking about reducing RAM two orders of a magnitude, as addressed in the article. Good talk.

That doesn't make sense. If the cost of RAM is high and being used by models then yes, you should try to use less RAM. Using opposite logic is not good engineering. Seriously, what kind of argument is that? Hahaha

I'm entertaining this nonsense because I want to clarify, that I use a 20 year old web gui and it consistently eats 8 gigs of ram in Webkit because it uses CSS to update the forms. Webkit is the only option on iPads and yet it can't handle a 20 year old website because it doesn't do things in the standard ways. It's ridiculous to say "why doesn't it target web" especially after someone presents new coding harness that went out of its way to run well without it.

True but my point stands it's not Covid anymore. We don't need to build everything for the browser and talk through Zoom because it's easy for people who never use screen.

Even optimizing for specific hardware platforms is now trivial yet we act like everything has to be done through the browser, even though we know it's impossible to secure or do effectively because of the forest of constantly changing, proprietary tech.

>1 gig of ram for a gui is fine because ram is cheap I know because I program C++ and 1 gig is 6% of 16.

I don't know why you needed a paragraph to say that 1000% memory inflation is a trade-off to optimize dev costs and we can just ignore JS because our goal is to support a browser as the gui.

It's a bunch of nonsense and yet you call what I said nonsense while all you do is provide opinion that it's OK because trade-off or something. What you said is purely opinion so you can't say my take is nonsense. There's nothing "pure engineering perspective" about it.

JavaScript is just about the worst thing ever and why would you use that as middleware for anything if you didn't have to? I mean, I get using Visual Studio Code, if you don't care about your business processes, intellectual property or engineers and are just outsourcing everything, but imagine actually trusting it for your coding stack like some kind of middle manager who only cares about cutting costs to the bone? Or like, you're riding the AI bubble and want to release some minimal viable product as fast as possible, but it's 2026 now. Covid was 6 years ago.

Wow it's almost like they're not taxing pirated music at all and are taxing gigabytes. I suppose France is more like a farm of users and they're not entitled to their natural resources because users are inherently slaves to globalized capitalism.

Right. What makes an expert good? It's intuition. If they had to pay attention to every detail they would never get anything done, but attention is a useful utility for figuring out how your model is working and how it isn't. If you've ever done anything complicated, you know that paying attention to one thing just often makes you overlook the obvious issue.

human intuition is supported by embodied experience, perception, and years of interacting with the physical and social world. An AI model's learned pattern recognition is analogous in some respects, but it isn't the same process.

intelligence may depend less on continuously scrutinizing everything than on having a good internal model, recognizing when that model is likely to fail, and knowing where to investigate.

Amazing. I hope I can get around to testing it out and making a video.

Isn't Google renting cloud compute from XAI?

I spoke with someone smarter and richer than you and he said "these things will happen." That convinced me and I think the real question we need to be asking is, how awesome is OpenAI? How can we prepare for a more effective and efficient market for Super Intelligence before it happens tomorrow?
