ru552··on Nvidia AVO scores 100% on the ARC-AGI-3 interactive reasoning benchmark
Thoughts on Nvidia releasing AVO or even open sourcing it? They've been very open with their models.
ru552··on Sam Altman Won in Court Against Elon Musk. But, We All Lost
Regardless of the marketing material, LLMs are still just using probabilities to guess what the next token is.
ru552··on Qwen3.6-35B-A3B: Agentic coding power, now open to all
You won't like it, but the answer is Apple. The reason is the unified memory. The GPU can access all 32gb, 64gb, 128gb, 256gb, etc. of RAM.

An easy way (napkin math) to know if you can run a model based on it's parameter size is to consider the parameter size as GB that need to fit in GPU RAM. 35B model needs atleast 35gb of GPU RAM. This is a very simplified way of looking at it and YES, someone is going to say you can offload to CPU, but no one wants to wait 5 seconds for 1 token.

ru552··on Claude.ai down
Gemma 4 has made a lot of progress in this area. The model is phenomenal. It's size is workable. This is the worst it will ever be.
ru552··on System Card: Claude Mythos Preview [pdf]
There's speculation that next Tuesday will be a big day for OpenAI and possibly GPT 6. Anthropic showed their hand today.
ru552··on Anthropic drops flagship safety pledge
The article says the policy change is separate and unrelated to Anthropic’s discussions with the Pentagon.
ru552··on Anthropic drops flagship safety pledge
the article specifically says:

> The policy change is separate and unrelated to Anthropic’s discussions with the Pentagon, according to a source familiar with the matter.

Virustotal at upload and periodically during the day
ru552··on xAI joins SpaceX
sure it does, Bezo's space company and Google are both planning the same

Here's Sundar talking about doing it by 2027: https://www.businessinsider.com/google-project-suncatcher-su...

ru552··on Clawdbot - open source personal AI assistant
You can talk to it in discord or whatsap or telegram etc. cause it's checking for you in a loop.

That's the biggest difference I can tell.

ru552··on Carrier Landing in Top Gun for the NES
It was tough, but it wasn't Battletoads tough.
ru552··on Claude Haiku 4.5
I like this workflow
ru552··on Sampling and structured outputs in LLMs
"The constraint system offered by Guidance is extremely powerful. It can ensure that the output conforms to any context free grammar (so long as the backend LLM has full support for Guidance). More on this below." --from https://github.com/guidance-ai/guidance/

I didn't find any more on that comment below. Is there a list of supported LLMs?

ru552··on Rand Paul: FCC chair had "no business" intervening in ABC/Kimmel controversy
*Please note, I'm not in favor of censorship, it's just that this analogy is inaccurate

Olive Garden isn't given access to something it requires to operate at the pleasure of the government. Broadcast TV on the other hand...

All of broadcast TV is allowed because the government says it is. ABC/CBS/NBC/FOX don't own the radio spectrum they are operating on, the government does and they grant the right to use it to those companies. There's a long list of things that the government requires them to do in order to keep this pleasure. One of them used to be the Saturday morning cartoons. I miss those.

ru552··on Waymo has received our pilot permit allowing for commercial operations at SFO
Generally between 11a and 7p. Going to lunch/dinner.
ru552··on Waymo has received our pilot permit allowing for commercial operations at SFO
I've used Waymo countless times in SF. It's typically 15% cheaper than an Uber/Lyft and trip time/wait are generally the same. I much prefer the Waymo.
ru552··on Experimenting with Local LLMs on macOS
You're better served using Apple's MLX if you want to run models locally.
ru552··on Grok Code Fast 1
This is the model that was code named "Sonic" in Cursor last week. It received tons of praise. Then Cursor revealed it was a model from xAI. Then everyone hated it. :/ I miss the days where we just liked technology for advancement's sake.

ru552··on OpenAI Burns the Boats
This explains why Anthropic cut OpenAI off of their models just before GPT-5 was released.
ru552··on Build and Host AI-Powered Apps with Claude – No Deployment Needed
Is this much different from the custom GPTs that OpenAI pushed a year or two ago?
ru552··on BuyMeACoffee silently dropped support for many countries (2024)
say what?
ru552··on Evolving OpenAI's Structure
I wonder if this meets the requirements set by the recent round of outside investors?
ru552··on Internet usage pattern during power outage in Spain and Portugal
Sure, but you can't use it until the hardware shows up.
ru552··on Supabase raises $200M Series D at $2B valuation
I think FAL is already too big for a "viber" company to buy. $55M ARR and 10%+ EBITDA. They're either going to IPO or get acquihired by a big 4.
ru552··on Supabase raises $200M Series D at $2B valuation
How are they giving AWS a run for their money when they use AWS for their own service? AWS profits from Supabase growth.
ru552··on Supabase raises $200M Series D at $2B valuation
My humble guess is they sold themselves as the enabler for the AI vibe coding "revolution"
ru552··on Student loans in default to be referred to debt collection, Dept of Ed says
They only stopped referring to debt collections in 2020 when Covid hit.
ru552··on Claude 3.7 Sonnet and Claude Code
Considering that they are the model that powers a majority of Cursor/Windsurf usage and their play with MCP, I think they just have to figure out the UX and they'll be fine.
ru552··on Meta claims torrenting pirated books isn't illegal without proof of seeding
Copy in copyright is not copy like copy in copying some data.

Copy in copyright is a term for the actual writing that gets published on ads, or magazines, or in a news paper. "I need to get the copy from marketing for this campaign." "The editor hasn't approved the copy for the article yet."

Typically, people not in/around the industry aren't familiar with the term, which leads to the confusion.

that's where I stopped reading. that let me know this was not a rigorous study and had other motivations
