But macron said he'd do it.

So is this cope?

This is Euro cope.

No one thinks this outside the 5 minutes someone in Europe reads an article about how France says they will send troops to Ukraine.

But the troops never will come.

Get off Facebook and get on Wikipedia.

Or go visit there.

Even in rich cities, it felt like I was in the lower middle class area in my suburban area.

I think we are seeing the decline of even this. The European debt crisis, the United States security umbrella being disinterested in Europe, austerity, increasing retirement age, an inability to defend Ukraine without the United States. The running gag they don't have AC...

Even poor populations worldwide have access to the 3 things you described, but the quality is lower.

European decline has been mentioned since the 1930s.

I try to stay up on AI models, but I've given up on Mistral. I have tried using it too many times and it's the worst out of major models. Even Kimi and DeepSeek are miles ahead.

Seems like it's another European company that is only alive through government financing.

I understand wanting a home grown industry, but with AI models, just abliterate a DeepSeek model.

Total misunderstanding of the industry. Europe needs hardware, not a model that needs to be replaced monthly.

The empty posturing.

The faux unity.

That they think their politicians are better than the United States but have populist demagogues, right wingers winning, corruption scandals, freedom of speech restrictions, and unbelievably bad spending problems.

Still waiting for France to send troops to Ukraine or ask the United States to get rid of their European military bases.

I pass costs to my customers, so it doesn't really matter. They are getting 30k in value for $1000.

They compared codex with muse instead of OpenClaw?

Well I'm happy to know I'll have a job for a few years because this was incredibly weak.

I'm convinced gpt 4.5 was the best model humanity has ever made.

Now we are getting downgraded models that do 100x COT because it's cheaper.

Meh... There's a reason Opus 4.6 is still an option.

Pros know these are lower cost models.

Well this project is dead then.

I have a hard time knowing if anti AI is a mental illness or propaganda coming out of China.

Unironically.

Separately, why would anyone use a Debian based desktop OS? Your $11 Amazon mouse won't work. An Nvidia card won't work. Just use Fedora.

Nvidia already has better models. Only someone in bed with the EU would buy it when promised European wide regulation.

If you don't live in Europe, you would never choose Mistral. You'd pick a US model for state of the art. You'd pick a Chinese model for local stuff.

At its core, we are talking about language models. They are not equations. They are numbers being essentially multiplied together.
