  • In related news: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/investing/personal-finance/retirement/article-canadian-investors-us-stocks-sun-life/

    Canadian investors divested from U.S. equity funds in the first quarter at the highest rate since the start of the pandemic, moving their money into more conservative investments, according to a new report from Sun Life SLF-T.
 But people aren’t cashing out. Overall withdrawal rates remained stable, suggesting that investors are staying committed to their long-term savings.

  • I wish I’d sprung for the max when I bought my M1 Pro, but I am glad I splurged on memory. Really aside from LLM workloads this thing is still excellent.

    Agree we can be doing a lot more, the recent generation of local models are fantastic.

    Gemma 3n and Phi 4 (non reasoning) are my local workhorses lately.

  • Sure would help if they'd committed to Paris or any environmental standards.

    And they should deal with their own forest fires. Remember when we sent firefighters there just this year when Trump was going on about 51st state crap? I remember.

  • That is cool! I've been wanting I've wanted to use a model like this but haven't really looked.

    Are you self hosting the long context llm, of do what are you using?

  • That’s gross

    They need to get hit by a slander suit from Tim’s

    I’d mostly never side with the giant corp, but this behaviour needs to die.

    It also needs to be legislated away, especially the “I can’t get a job because I don’t speak Punjabi” shit.

  • XAI was founded in 2023, 6 months after Elon acquired Twitter and did his layoffs. 4 months after XAI was created, when it was publicly announced, Musk stated that a politically correct AI would be dangerous

    Anyone working at XAI already knew the game by then, they weren't on visas who got legacied in.

    During a launch event Friday afternoon, the mogul argued that politically correct AI is “incredibly dangerous” because it requires the technology to provide misleading outputs, citing the lies told by HAL 9000, the murderous AI in Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 film, “2001: A Space Odyssey.”
