seberino··on Jury told that Meta, Google 'engineered addiction' at landmark US trial
That may be true but I think the unspoken assumption in your comment is that somehow, without capitalism, greed magically melts away. How do you explain the constant extreme rampant corruption in communist and socialist countries over 100 years if not from GREED?
seberino··on The next two years of software engineering
Not sure that is warranted. AI will create exciting changes to society for the better. These times are uncertain but certainly not depressing.
seberino··on Determination of the fifth Busy Beaver value
Thanks. Amazing work.
seberino··on Tesla Wants Out of the Car Business
Some people also love riding horses, making their own clothes and hunting for their own food. None of that changes the march of technology for the majority. The plain fact is there are too many benefits to self driving cars like price and safety.
seberino··on DARPA program sets distance record for power beaming
The eventual goal is to use it at extremely high altitude with drones so that that isn't much of a risk.
seberino··on Why DeepSeek had to be open source
Thank you very much. That was helpful. Do we need the older model weights to use the recent DeepSeek-R1-Zero and DeepSeek-R1 models?
seberino··on Why DeepSeek had to be open source
Wow. Your link is frustrating because I thought everything was under the MIT license. Why did people claim it is MIT licensed if they sneaked in this additional license?
seberino··on Why DeepSeek had to be open source
I think I see what you mean. I suppose it is kinda like an opaque binary, nevertheless, you can use it freely since all is under the MIT license right?
seberino··on Why DeepSeek had to be open source
I agree it would be nice to have the training specifics. Nevertheless everything DeepSeek released is under the MIT license right? So you can go set up a cloud LLM, fine tune it, and, do whatever else you wish with it right? That is pretty significant no?
seberino··on Why DeepSeek had to be open source
Wait timeout. I thought DeepSeek's stuff was all MIT licensed too no? What limitations are you thinking of that DeepSeek still has?
seberino··on DeepSeek proves the future of LLMs is open-source
I'm not an expert but didn't they release the weights under MIT license? So you can make your own LLM with complete control right?

I agree it would nice to know the details of their training, but, simply calling this drop an "opaque binary" is seriously underselling it no?
