  • Building a cheaper model that's not as good as the top AI models is not the best way to build AI models, cheaper yes, but Deepseek isn't the best AI model out there, it still gets beat by Googles/Claudes/OpenAI etc

    A better way would be to combine the Deepseek training optimisations with raw power of Americas/nvidias hardware

    We're still at an early stage with AI, there's nothing to suggest we're anywhere near the end of Jevons paradox

  • The only problem is you used MSN which is using the Daily Mail as a source? An American source using a UK (garbage dump of a) source to report on Australia? :\

  • yeah it's definitely an assistant not a cheap developer... or is it :O

    Devin just came to take your software job… will code for $8/hr https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhIm-Dk1pzk /s

    I'm learning javascript and love it, so much easier to query Mistral/Qwen/Deepseek Distilled than scrolling through endless search results hoping someone ran into the same problem I did

    I also run the AI models in LM Studio on my own machine so I'm happy with that as well, I try to self host where I can

  • I think the saddest thing here is that Europe has no capital markets union where it's own private companies should be putting this money in

    Europe will always be behind while it's more difficult to raise funds and do business

    This AI is just the latest thing, who knows what else Europe will soon fall behind in

  • People around me will cheer for this since they are not working in the programming industry

    I don't know how you can say this when programming is one of the best uses for AI

  • You noticed I left out the genocide mention but didn't pickup on why, you are free to read my original response to you back at the beginning

    Anyway detaching from this whole thread now

  • Why would you want to carry on arguments

    Because I get a lot more entertainment out of arguing instead of agreeing? Isn't this common?

    If you want me to just agree with you feel free to post some anti russia pro ukraine/pro west threads and I'll give you a solid uptoot and be on my way

  • Yep sorry I'm in Aus not Canada, they're a local manufacturer (https://reclaimenergy.com.au/), expensive as hell but felt like showing my support to at least one of the few places this still does engineering in Australia

    How is that heat pump treating you

    Really good! the separate compressor from the tank makes it whisper quiet, can barely hear it even if you're a foot away, co2 which is the most environment friendly refrigerant, and power usage is well, minimal, only a small 160L tank because I live by myself, can see example of what it uses here (it's the light blue bit at around 8am in the morning):

    That said it is summer here in Queensland, will have to see how it goes in winter but under 1kw a day for hot water, that's really not bad at all imo

  • Nah I've done internet arguments since like 2001 back on overclockers australia and whirlpool and about 10 years ago decided that it's mainly a waste of time, so I have a hard line with myself not to carry these arguments on, really not that interested in it anymore, I avoided looking at this thread 100 times but it got me on the 101st (that's my fault)

    I really wish coding gave the same dopamine spikes as arguing on the internet did... (anyway, back to coding)

  • again user issue, no ai trash in my playlists

  • works on my machines, maybe user issue

  • Isn't that just Spotify?

  • yep small items i've pretty much given up on, nobody seems to care that $2 worth of stickers are made in China

    It just keeps going though, weirdest one for me was those little marshmallows you put on cakes:

    Coles Bake and Create Pink and White Mallows, 100g. Great for creating a delicious rocky road or topping hot drinks.

    Made in China
