I listened to some of the voices. The male voices are believable while all the female voices sound the same and artificial. For some reason, it also reminds me of the voices in Toy Story movies.
Bias in the training data?

Bias in the training data?
A ham operator might put out 20W of ERP while a radio station operates at 100W though international broadcasters use upto 500 kW.
Oh! I got my name on a paper! I don't think there is much reward for it these days.
We might think that knowledge from logc and discrete math would spill over to coding. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work like that. Even 1T parameter LLM fail on tasks if there are no variants of it in the training data.
I think this can be achieved already. Take a base model and train only on source code. In fact, the very early Granite models from IBM were like that though it didn't support reasoning which limited its performance.
You can do it too. I don't know how much it will cost to train on just source code repos. $10K in total? Not sure.
Cellphone emergency broadcasts turned out to be not reliable during the Hawaiian Island fires.
RDS in FM has a special mode for emergency broadcasts and some countries use them. As FM signals easily cover a 50-75 mile radius, the coverage area is huge versus cellular emergency broadcasts requiring the towers to be powered on which have also failed during natural disasters.
I can receive RNZ on shortwave on the East Coast of USA! About 10,000 miles away if we count the signal bouncing multiple times between the ionosphere and the ground.
Of course, it is a Chinese brand who haven't forsaken FM radios. Apparently, Europeans still prefer a FM radio on their smartphones that Chinese brands that sell in Europe still retain them.
Here in USA, people don't seem to care about radio.
Does the entire Japanese population learn these things while growing up?
Even for USA,
1. The 90s were the most violent period in terms of crime.
2. Corruption has neither increased or decreased in the last decade.
3. Other than the 2020 election during the pandemic, the number of votes cast has increased in every election contrary to your claim.
What situation are you talking about?
The world is less violent, more affluent than 30 years ago, but appears to be the opposite due to 24/7 news cycle.
Corporate policies ultimately decide growth. More growth leads to higher profits and higher tax collected by the Government which in turn means they don't have to borrow more.
This is a terrible strategy. It encourages inefficiency to metastasize throughout the company.
No wonder Japan is stuck in a rut since the 90s and its debt-to-GDP ratio is 205% which is one of the highest in the world.
Your romantic idea of Japan would get destroyed by just browsing www.reddit.com/r/japanlife/
Japan has one of the worst work culture and low productivity in the world.
The answer is exactly what you have posted. I am impressed by Qwen!
The bandwidth for AM transmissions in North America is only 20 kHz and radio emissions has to STRICTLY fall within that bandwidth. Technically, it allows an audio BW of 10 kHz, but in practice it is close to 4 kHz which is telephone quality.
Not suitable for Music.
FM broadcasts do a high pass at 50 Hz and stop at 15 kHz. The best SNR is only ~50 dB which is already achieved by plain old SBC. There is no need for higher fidelity audio codecs like AAC/aptX/aptX HD/LDAC besides the fact that most smartphones don't support aptX or aptX HD.
Are we being 'nudged' to like certain genres or musicians because they are being promoted? Of course, this could happen with a DJ or traditional FM station too, but with centralized AI, you impart that 'nudging' on literally millions of people.
You can simplify it even further. List of things you need.
1. Smartphone or DAP.
2. Car Bluetooth FM Transmitter (~$20)
3. USB to 12 V car adapter(~$10)
4. Existing FM radio.
You can set this up in 5 minutes. Connect the smartphone/DAP using BT or AUX cable. Select a free FM channel and you are ready to go.
Also, in the photos, the FM antenna is fully extended which is unnecessary as these FM transmitters put out plenty of RF power.
P.S. On AliExpress, you can buy both for < $15 while on Amazon it is around $30.
P.P.S. Just the USB FM transmitter is only $5 on AE. For the cost of a cup of Coffee!
Then the rules should enumerate all the ways. From your posts, you come across as if programmers don't know what they are doing which is insulting to those who work in mission critical industries like aviation where a programmer could be criminally charged if he/she didn't implement the specs STRICTLY.
A n-tuple notation would have been more readable and mathematically accurate like (Q=K, V), (Q, K=V), and (Q=K=V).
Nothing is more robust than ham radio at 144/420 MHz. Even first responders use frequencies adjacent to this and has the same RF propagation characteristics.
For S&R teams, you could apply for LMR license. It is valid for 10 years.
FCC does allow use of a ham radio in a real emergency without a license.
No. Free space loss increases with frequency.
FSP loss for 915 MHz at 10 kms is ~ -111.67 dB while for 2.4 GHz is -120 dB.
That is a 9 dB loss which is significant. It could mean the difference between a copy or just plain static though the LoRa is supposed to be copyable down to -140 dBm.
The max tx power is around 150 mW (21.76 dBm), so at 10 kms, the RSSI is 21.76-120 = -98.24 dBm which is above the -140 dBm limit.
This calculation is assuming there is no loss due to vegetation or humidity or other barriers.
You should at least monitor your deep sleep using a smartwatch. Less than 1.5 hours and I would be worried.
