I mean, fine. But its easier to fix human written slop over AI slop solely because of the sheer volume of AI slop.

In capable hands. Is the real issue. Too many people believe they are capable hands.

o.O my budget can be requested up to $2k/month.

$29/month is like… not using it lol

Hehehehe I DO get that vindication.

It was really fun, don’t get me wrong. I miss the small amount of extra power it had. The shifter was cool.

But the tire sensors kept going off, and the AC just dying and requiring me to do a fancy start sequence to get it going again was just impractical. Also it didn’t have smart cruise control, barely any storage space, max charge was like 210 miles, and the backup camera was almost useless.

That was a 2023 polestar 2, so i cant speak for other models or newer ones.

I bought a used 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 for $25k. 30k miles. I know its still not cheap, but the ask the batteries have a 100k+ warranty.

77kW 220-280 miles at 100% (though I rarely go beyond 90% for battery life). 0-60 in 4.5 seconds, all wheel drive, CCS charger with NACS adapters available. Tesla chargers max at 96kW just fyi, idk why. But a lot of quick chargers work better, there’s 2 65xkW, 4x180kW near me. There’s a 4x375kW and a 4x400kW on a regular distance trip I take. Those are stupid fast charging.

A standard 120v is 1.4kW max, and it works out to about 10%/11hrs. A 240v is much better (i can’t remember maybe its like 10kW) charges fully in about 8 hours.

Kia and Hyundai are awesome EVs. I’ve heard good things about Subaru’s. The Chevy Bolt I’ve heard less good about. Toyota’s EVs are disappointing. Avoid Polestar - they aren’t allowed to sell in the US anymore anyway, but the car has a fancy interior and is fun to drive until the AC stops working. And it’s got weird software license gates for hardware it has.

Also don’t find reasons to funnel money to Musk.

Well, yeah. It’s usually not the principal that gets out of hand anyway. It’s always the interest that gets ya.

Man. I’ll tell you, looking around the desktop training hardware that nVidia now sells, they better fear that their business models are toast.

If nVidia walks away from all this stupid wealthy, fine. The hardware we can give each engineer is worth it.

Edit: For late arrivals to this if you’re curious why someone anti-LLM could be happy with this - its because the hardware is model agnostic. Whatever data and training algorithm you give it, it will be able to work with it. That expands the domain beyond signal generation (what Generative AI does) and gives engineers the ability to feed data intensive problems to it that we have long desired to make sense of.

For people unfamiliar with the ELIZA Effect, that was discovered in the 1960s with super early chatbot algorithms.

I attempted a presentation at work in the early days of LLM adoption at work and was told “that is counterproductive to this effort.”

How horrifying is our dystopia when we grade our lives on how shitty they are.

Tbf I think its the context limit that makes things hard.

1m token context is so stupidly low for all of the input we consider and filter in real time.

“Corprate run labor camp”

Isn’t that just like

A job?

That old cartoon show “Metabots” but they’re people in a computer cave lol

… what about private corporations? Thats the whole fucking problem.

Palantir can drop significant amounts of money to fight this, and keep loopholes open.

Why you people always gotta take everything as black and white. I use “bot” interchangeably with “shill.”

Edit: I see no one found the humor with switching the actual thing that is black and white in his statement (“Everyone I disagree with”) with the “bot” and “shill” thing.

Isn’t that something else? No matter where you are on the planet, if you know technology, you despise Windows.

It’s usually only the news subs. But if you make claims that counter Kremlin propaganda you can sometimes summon them.

Like if I just say Russia is committing genocide in Ukraine, it won’t (why? Beats me). But if I say they are killing ethnic Russian Ukrainian citizens as well as Ukrainian men, women, and children, then we have a good chance.

I got others if it doesn’t work.

Edit: (WITNESS ME! Lol) Edit 2: Now I’m impressed. I knew I could do it, I didn’t expect it to work quite so well. I’ll check back in a few hours.

Nope. software engineer/developer/programmer/webdev/ millions of names, so i just say software dude nos.

Edit: no. Software dude

Nope. NVidia has been making a shit ton of profit from the AI bubble.
