I haven’t played with it much but I think it’s moreso to enable developers to use the Linux commands they’re familiar with even on Windows machines, sort of like a Linux flavored CMD Prompt.
The Virtual Machines tho can do anything a Linux can do, but the filesystem remains separate.
For the unaware WSL = Window’s Subsystem Linux. Basically, Windows integrates a Linux commandline within itself. It can also run Linux Virtual Machines using HyperV, a great way for Windows Users to try out distros and find one that they like.
Did the EU suddenly develop a tech industry overnight or are you unaware where all the major AI companies are located?
Academia literally got cut by more than a third and Microsoft is planning to revive breeder reactors.
You might think academia will work on the problem but the people running these things absolutely do not.
Hard to tell if that pushes them closer to or further away from authoritarianism, tbh
Because the training has diminishing returns, meaning the small improvements between (for example purposes) GPT 3 and 4 will need exponentially more power to have the same effect on GPT 5. In 2022 and 2023 OpenAI and DeepMind both predicted that reaching human accuracy could never be done, the latter concluding even with infinite power.
So in order to get as close as possible then in the future they will need to get as much power as possible. Academic papers outline it as the one true bottleneck.
It’s interesting to hear about Kick again, I figured it had fizzled out after the gambling allegations.
Are they asking for ID?
Then they’re breaching privacy.
