I don't care about this much, but I took a quick look.

The DLSS 5 face looks about a decade better than the non-DLSS face. The latter is how faces have appeared for decades in games: not quite there. The former is far better: the eyes look real. Skin tone is convincing. Nice.

The alley/street/whatever is dramatically different. Not necessarily better or worse, but very different. So that's a thing that will bother people that are all wrapped around the axle about "atmosphere."

Overall I prefer the DLSS 5 version pretty strongly. It looks better.

There. A former gamer that likes it. Hate on, you spoiled brats.

Wider temperature range is a killer feature. It simplifies everything, so the plant costs far less and needs much less attention.

LOL.

Prophetic much?

When this one pops, it's going to be biblical.

Well, now you know all this is going to end badly.

AT&T is a $125b/y legacy outfit. They're going to leverage 2x their annual revenue in 5 years on spec...

Yeah. Good luck with that.

Only in the minds of limousine commies that think the US has succumb to the 4th Reich.

Meanwhile, Pavel Durov gets nabbed in France. Graham Linehan gets nabbed in Heathrow by establishment jackboots. Yet in the minds of the special people that jet around the world to attend parody award events, the US is "dangerous."

mmkay.

Given what they've been doing, one is forced to stop and think for a moment whether or not that's a typo. It is a typo, but yeah, still makes you think.

Someone needs a bit more coffee.

There is you and your claims. And then there is Mozilla, with '14 of which were considered "high severity..."'.

So who to believe? You, in the peanut gallery, or Mozilla, using Anthropic's best models and documenting their results?

I know who I'm going with.

Also, what is the point of Rust now? LLMs run down defects at low cost. Do we need new languages that attempt to prevent defects by design? Perhaps we're better off with simpler languages, and simpler compilers that are fast and portable. We may get to the point where LLMs can efficiently create proofs for C, similar to what humans did for seL4, and obviate the need for underspecified, moving targets like Rust and its supposed benefits.

Intel sold its XMM modem chipset business to Apple. It did not exit the wireless market. As you can see here, (from 2023, four years after the Apple sale,) Intel has been and continues developing new products for wireless operators, and is now, with this new Xeon, on its third generation of such devices. Overall, Intel exited the low margin, highly competitive "client" end of the wireless world and focused on the high margin wireless network operator end, where their VLSI capabilities face less competition.

Your take on Intel wireless is the result of consuming headlines without understanding. Your take on Xeon being exclusive to workstations, servers and supercomputers is similarly naïve. OEMs build proprietary systems based on Xeons such as this new 18A device and embed them in network core facilities that are not "datacenters." I wrote "essentially embedded" because, while the term "embedded" is not used to describe these deployments, that is essentially what they are: dedicated silicon deployed in proprietary systems that are not general purpose datacenters. They will not be running arbitrary VMs or other "public cloud" workloads, but instead vertically integrated software stacks proprietary to a wireless operator's business.

Please, in the future, consider your own ignorance before commenting: there is more going on in the world than what you're shown on Ars Technica and YouTube.

Abject linguistic nebulosity.

Modulating and processing enormous amounts of cellular traffic can be shoehorned under the caption "cloud compute" any time such machinations are found necessary.

As big as these devices are, they're essentially embedded CPUs. They're intended for baseband signal processing in cellular networks. They live just behind the O-RAN layer (cellular transceivers that do the RF your devices see,) and process the baseband signal with FFT hardware offload (Intel VRAN Boost.) Hybrid SDR, essentially. After baseband processing and error correction, the signals are authenticated, metered, etc. A large number of low power X86 cores then run all the proprietary operator code for the network.

The customers for these are well-heeled wireless network operators, and they don't care about prevailing prices for 1-2TB of the DDR5-8000 they need to feed each core 2-4GB of high performance RAM: the cost is a fraction of what they pay for the RF transceiver hardware and everything else it takes to operate a wireless network. So they're paying full retail fresh out of the foundry, and Intel's massive investments in new nodes and incredibly sophisticated integration (3 different nodes stacked in a 3D package...) pay off handsomely.

How precious. Pretending you care about the fate of US soldiers.

LOL

I voted for this.

Germany is one example.

Japan is another.

Who claimed otherwise?
