The LLM providers are making losses, but that doesnt mean no one is profiting. Cyber crime, social media revenue, propaganda networks. Lots of downstream users of LLMs are making money.

Rtx3050? Should be supported for a little while, and seems to be around $300AUD. Probably still overkill for a NAS though.

Yeah, the longevity for tape backups feels entirely theoretical when the tape drives themselves are out of production, so you could end up with a perfect tape, and nothing can read it…

Yeah, same, but every time I look at second hand stuff its crazy expensive, or completely obsolete.

True in general, but I am not convinced its true for OpenAI or anthropic.

Their training data is probably already replicated across multiple datacenters, so tape archiving is less critical. And if tape archiving is critical, then surely they already have sufficient backups already right? And its not like the organic content of the internet is growing anymore, so there isn’t going to be an explosion of new organic data they need to store.

So I don’t buy that they need this. I think this is fujifilm trying to get in on the bubble, and nothing more.

I buy the follow on effects rational, but I’m not convinced that tapes are a suitable alternative to HDDs. The random IO basically doesnt exist. But I guess if there are companies using HDDs for “cold” storage then using tape makes some sense for them.

My personal theory for this announcement is that its pure stock price manipulation. AI investing is full on fomo driven, so announce that your company is investing in X that will help AI, and watch the chuds hit buy in robinhood.

Okay, no need to name call. Tapes are for long term archiving. The access speed is minutes to hours, so these are definitely not for caching.

Thats exactly my point, why bother archiving when you need it accessible for training? Surely they would be putting the training data on a faster medium.

The ship has sailed on the front. But even if its for the corpus of training data, surely that can’t be stored on tape, the access time would be way too slow.

But thats pointless archiving it on tape, the access time is going to handicap the training speed.

I don’t get it, why bother archiving anything AI produces? You can just ask the next AI to reproduce it.

Once you learn and master one language, the main concepts will usually transfer across, and with minimal effort youll be able to pick up any other language.

So starting with JS is fine, but don’t be afraid of switching later down the line. Choose the right tool for the job.

executives practice breathwork and put aside their electronic devices

Headspace for workers, retreats for executives. HR bullshit.

Garlic bread pls

5 inches deep? That might be too much? We normally give our cat around 1.5-2 inches deep max.

Is the litter tray big enough? Is there enough litter?

Dumb question, but have you ruled out the cable being bad or corrosion in the socket? Dropping to 100 is usually something bad with the cable.

Nope, your uptime kuma speaks to it directly, and it basically acts as a signal client for you.

Its very finicky to setup, but once you get it working its pretty good. Sometimes needs to be reauthenticated though.
