If the AI people want to spend money like they are building a transcendental railroad, the government is fine stepping back and letting it happen. Regulate mature industries we at Slashdot said during the last boom, all kinds of dread was predicted, and the network neutrality went crashing because everyone got 1Gb/S bandwidth down and 100Mb/S for under 100 a month now that the residential build out is all but done.

What people dont like, instead of tree hugging Northern California Hippies with eastern philosophies bent networkers, we have people more in tune with venture capital and mega industries industrialist philosophies. That the world only needs data centers where power is the cheapest, reasonable latency and out of the reach of state takeover, is now in the mantra. For those of us along for the ride, dont really care, I am selling them enterprise network consulting...the tent, the maid, the cook they will need in the goldfield.

I am very surprised someone isn't building ten nuclear reactors in a row in Wyoming, ten Giga data centers, and at the same time digging the disposal for 100,000 years on the same site. I have found nothing yet in AI (guess other than self driving) that NEEDS in region latency.

Not end of story.

NVIDIA might be absolute performance leader, but when the NVIDIA part is sold out, the AMD guy is can get you a pallet of cards that do the workload at the same number of watts. Making margin is better than waiting on making slightly more margin, we are in the gold rush, and dam strait I want any shovels and Pans and blue jeans to sell to the idiots running for the goldfield. And some times you have to tell an investor you have put x dollars of hardware under a roof, if INTEL and AMD deliver we are golden.

AMD often outperforms NVIDIA in price-to-performance value, especially in budget and mid-range gaming graphics cards, and in specific AI inference workloads where cost, power efficiency, and latency are prioritized over the absolute highest performance. While Nvidia leads in high-end gaming ray tracing and AI model training, AMD's competitive pricing and strong performance in tasks like AI inference provide significant value for certain users.

AMD aims to outperform NVIDIA in AI inference primarily through a focus on cost-effectiveness, higher memory capacity, and optimized hardware for large language models, making it a competitive alternative in specific inference workloads despite NVIDIA's overall market leadership and dominant software ecosystem. While NVIDIA often excels in training and certain real-time inference tasks, AMD's MI-series GPUs offer strong performance per dollar and excel in scenarios demanding high memory bandwidth, such as large context window LLM inference, leading to increased adoption by major cloud providers.

US wholesale energy prices are .09 to .13 / kWH if you have your own substation and are willing to let the power company to tell to when they need you to load shed. The average price published is twice that. The steelmill near me is at .09kwH for everything but 2 hours on days with wind and sun, and does not do batches another 15 days a year for weather. Typically the staff does not want to show on those weather days either. Perhaps 1 day a year a anything other than winter storm warning or extream cold event they have production staff and cannot run a batch, everything in sight gets libercated and closer inspection. The soon to be 4 nuclear power plants near me, absolutely need a customer making low pressure steam out of high pressure steam else they might have to throttle or send power to canada for really to cheap.

The cost diffrence between building 2 and 5 datacenters chasing cheapest prices isnt a factor of two or three, it may be a factor of 1.75. Since excess power and excess compute is sold on the open market, no time like now to build a data center and let the utilities and generators fight with knives to sell you the extra raw material elections in exactly the way a compute DC can take it, scheduled by the minute. Those backup battery farms now drop in value at the same rate if your providing the service to yourself or the utility, so leaver that to get the utility to deliver at the substation at unity to the producer.

If you can negotiate a better rate with China, I got guys who will build a DC on a barge and park it anywhere.

Instead of using AI to give us reusable code by most statistically used, we could use reusable code like grampa did, before the AI dinosaur stepped on his head.

I am not convinced, and because I do not care to learn Chinese Language to the extent to fool the systems developed for marketing to specificaly the region of china, it is very hard for me to test. If the chinese are evil fucks instead of people bouncing around inside a big system developed by a sheephurder and his gang of lawyers, there are alot of chinese freedom fighters not in china to deal with it.....Im on AmericanEagleWithArs AI5.0(now acquired by NSA/CIA shell), dumb and happy, because it can text my girlfriend she looking old and I am replacing her.

There are many tools from many nations and independent to point out insecure usage of source code, what the different layers do to get it to machine code, there are other tools. So use AI from one nation state, and send it for testing by the natural state with the best candy bars.

For the code that runs my general day, it more than likely is in a public git archive, and I know there is someone out their on the spectrum, powered by Dr. Pepper with Cane Sugar, with more energy than sexual partners, fascinated by the minutia the tools feed back with every change. That that person and many others tend to be the ones that catch and automate the search for other like problems and compromises, so the furry community rewards them. Thank god for the sexless says the owner of the company that puts out this press release.

Sounds like a feature. For a company with a board of movement service pension collectors.

We in tech know what a forensic investigation looks like, they have sold us the Russians/Ukrainians/Chinese/N Koreans/Iranians hacked the important political people so many times, and NEVER EVER say something like western actors either purposely or accidently hit the wrong target, and that intrusion was aimed at something else, but dam the zero day works on everything. Surely the FBI, CIA, DOJ never fat fingered an IP range, swaped the client for the server address, or went to the the .com instead of the .net. like the rest of the networking profressionals get caught up in daily.

Anyone who knows about this one particular party leader, a true DC swamp creature, who was hacked first by the Apple iCloud exposing passwords and not hashes, then suddenly his parties email servers are compromised and it becomes a big thing in the press, as the iCloud thing just bounced around as a consumer side issue. Nobody could testify that the hapless IT department did not have a spreadsheet with all the "I'm a lawyer, so don't make me create and keep a password on my own" that was used for AD and iPhone. In fact the same party pulled a hapless IT guy into the spotlight because primary candidates database leaked between campaigns in a party offered hosting platform. That this leader and many other iPhone users was just not given AD Admin because of his position and never forced to change his password and anyone could walk into said hapless Exchange 2010 server. Got to say, for people who put marathon tags in their office, Runner567! is Password1234!. If your teams passwords are OhioStateWins! and GoBlue2025! you best really trust you 2 factor vendor. 99% of cu$tomer$ that ultimately had to tell the story due to public outcry, multiple government investigations or lawsuit....did not have 2 factor hardware or software tokens, that were DIRT CHEAP 2007-2020.

At least I can say, they never got caught up in random machines with a nation suffix hitting a DNS server is proof of a conspiracy theory. Wait..... that is the Al........ What company we talking about again?

Of cores all beltway companies have the western worlds best interest a heart.

No, the people are beautiful, brilliant, wonderful caring individuals, unbelievably family oriented, with a strong group ethos. The problem the ethos walks themselves directly into communism and totalitarianism for the 3-15% that step up to being the local block enforcer and run up the parties structure, really just a power NIMBY Karen. The highly intelligent that do not get along with the system fall into orders corruption and crime that cannot be believed with very high stakes if the party aims their diminished power stick at you. The Americans who bother considering China, want the many friends we have been made to able to reform the communist trolls into just normal public workers. They also very soon will be in the hands of the tech billionaires we will all have to work that drive to take the money and do nothing out.

Every single letter of these ArtIcles should now have a link to the original source, sometimes I think 2/3s is reddit or Wikipedia or the first pass off the AP, that in my world is not a reliable source for anything but where all other data is lacking. I would simply want most of my news to be delivered to me by a agent that is very detailed in where it got information from, is that information unredacted, and is their video or audio streamed that instant that matches that quote. That any creation can be recreated. We are at the point where ever live can be falsified, where anyone can remove offensive and return gosh darn it.

Yes the world still needs a lot more storage, think the chips really might need might be the RAM to keeping track of how something was created storage and logged. We also have to agree to a tag that something was created by AI, forever keep the metadata, and it be insulting if it is stripped off.

I love to ask AI to compare and contrast all WaPo story from 2016 and WaPo story from 2025 with the same keywords and context and let the amazement flow. Or train an AI on 2004 and 2024 and let it spit out the diffrence in meaning and word usage of "far-right", "far-left" and "progressive". That news is considered a source of truth by anyone is insane outside of todays weather at zip code scales is amazing. It being changed more rapidly than song styles since the first time The Who said they were on their last tour.

Yes reporting in DC should be like CSPAN....next up from the department of labor.

I have zero problem programming AI judges for AI content writers and seeing bias, I got a bias AI for that.

The real problem AI is quotations where the source is not attached. Recording and keeping video, audio and interviews is zero compared to the coffee habit of the reporter. Since it is now no effort under our AI overlords the original video index, kept and properly transcribed is not a cost issue. After the past week I want the 3 hours of raw video, uploaded and checksum the same hour it was finalized, and I want links to other archives of similar recordings time and date wise with absolutely correct GEOdata and all datetimes are unmutable. Reporters really need to be recording their named sources, in these things called podcasts. Un named sources, quotes should almost never be used, that is what off the record use to be, the shit one would not share on a public pannel discussion.

The logic tree of a headline should be attached, and how far over the targeting of the headline slider was set.

IF AI is writing what I am reading, I want to tear apart the construction of those "facts" on a universal platform. Dont repeat AI, give me the query that constructs the story, and if it becomes wrong in the future, score the authors, human and robot over time.

Catching a tailwind on a bicycle with a downhill 90km/hr isnt a speed that anyone cannot control, especially since breaks are hub mounted on most fun things these days. The pedestrian stepping off the curb is the problem and always has been. The pedestrian always has some fault when it is a truck, bus, car. But shared fault when it is a bike or a fork lift, we have put a class of viechale having more responsibly a bar that the cyclist can never clear while riding down the center of a road. I was 20 feet behind a lorry going 40km/hr, the person paid attention to the lorry, but steped out into the street on the bike. Not the bike riders problem, but that is not how it is classified by medical authorizes. The fact that most people are high on touching their phone or drugs is more often the problem than the pedestrian involved with contact cyclist is willing to admit.

50km/hr.... That is downwind in flat midwest america, where the only bicycle injuries of note are cars not yeilding at our high tech replacements for traffic circles, 4 way stops. What the hell you all running into, sheep and old guys crossing the street? Or is it the all people you invited in to provide cheap labor?

The US tort courts for the win.
