4k as in screen resolution? That was a thing for many many years before M1.

Of course but I still had laggy ui and issues when sharing my screen etc.

For example the gcp (Google cloud ui) became unusable while sharing in Ms teams.

Also good 4k displays/fast ones still had a fan build in.

Right now training is insanely expensive because Nvidia, but I don't think that's sustainable given the demand. Eventually, training hardware may be priced like commodity CPU instances, and won't require a bajillion infiniband-linked nodes for respectable throughput.

But for now... I think you have a point. We would have seen more than Falcon, MPT, Llama, and the open Llama reproductions by now if open source foundational model training was viable.

You still need the data.

And eventually might mean 10 years.

4k took ages until it just worked. I even switched to the M1 for this

Super impressive.

Being able to beat a mega closed source model with an open source LLM and some fine tuning really calls into question the financial viability of these big proprietary LLMs. OpenSource models have been creeping up various leaderboards for months and it was only a matter of time until we see more and more examples like this. Excellent work.

I don't understand your reasoning.

Those models are all trained by companies and open source primarily fine-tune them.

It's impressive that we can do that but the base is still a lot of money and experts from the best companies/ai experts we have.

There is a minimal chance that we will be able to somehow keep up if Google and co stop publishing or delaying publishing their papers and models.

There are communities forming etc. And it's impressive but the financial 'viability' is key to the current ai progress

For about a year already, I use ASMR audio/visuals when I go to bed (strange, not even mentioned in the referenced post). I found they help me falling asleep (though, probably, not staying asleep). Also, not just any ASMR stuff does the job, there is a lot of ASMR junk out there. Plus, ASMR triggers differ in efficiency from one person to another, so I preliminarily assess if a particular recording might be good for me. Most of all, I like educational ASMR about history/culture/languages/etc.

Never got audio working in the bedroom.

Either the headphones are not comfortable or my wife gets annoyed.

And it has to be something which I don't need to 'get rid of' after falling asleep like headphones or so.

Those of us fortunate to live within a, mostly, good economic system don’t need cryptocurrency. I don’t have a problem saying that. But I also have the imagination to wonder if it will always be the case. And the empathy to understand that not every human is as fortunate as myself. People making broad statements about a technology seem to do so only from their current perspective. “Crypto is useless” for example, really means: “crypto is useless to me.”

My arguments against crypto are never about 'not useful for me'.

You either never heard arguments or ignore them but there are not just theoretical but also real life shows us that it doesn't work.

Your poor person who needs to save their hard cash in a dictatorship can either buy things, get dollars or euros (like what they do in Iran) or try to find someone to take their risky local currency to exchange it for a better digital one.

One were this poor person needs to understand backup strategy, fraud, computer and smartphones.

This is so naive it's ridiculous.

And continue to ignore EVERYTHING bad which happens to crypto the last 3 years.

Of course Sam and others those are NEVER crypto issues right?

Btw the poor people would benefit more from less CO2 instead of some crypto shit.
