That is extremely unlikely, but if it happens, people will switch to other AI engines.

I use Cursor for coding, which SpaceX now owns.

SpaceX (which may merge with Tesla soon) has deep pockets and an in-house need for AI, so it is even less likely to "close shop".

Even if Anthropic and OpenAI get in deep financial doo-doo, they won't close entirely. They might stop updating their models, but the existing models in static mode would be fine for coding. More likely, they would be acquired in a consolidation.

There are currently dozens of AI companies. I predict there will be fewer than five in a few years.

There are dumb TVs still being made.

That you don't even know that shows you are not a serious customer for such a product.

You can just click "Skip" when it asks you to connect to the Internet.

You can stop it, but most people can't or won't.

They don't need to block 100% of debloating.

99.9% is good enough.

The only ads I see are for video content like new movies or TV shows, and I don't mind those.

PG&E in California incentivizes me to reduce my power consumption from 2 to 7 pm, and gives me cheap off-peak electricity from 2 to 4 am, when I charge my EV.

I've been on this program for 11 years. It works well for me.

TFS also lists the Guardian as a source.

Like Chernobyl?

You are posting this on Slashdot, which is hosted in a data center.

Only Afghans ban women from driving.

All other Muslim countries, including Saudi Arabia, allow women to drive.

98% of Muslim women live where they can legally drive.

We do understand. But we don't feel that puts an obligation on others.

If you don't want to be stalked, maybe you shouldn't be dating the cop's ex-girlfriend.

According to TFS, it has 816B parameters, but only 48B "active" parameters.

So it is a sparse model, most likely based on a Mixture-of-experts architecture.

A MOE is much easier to segment than a non-sparse architecture.

The eight states are Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, West Virginia, Arkansas, Arizona, Idaho, and Montana.

They are all red states.

That's surprising to me. These sorts of silly lawsuits usually come from blue states.

The costs of nuclear are addressed all the time.

The problem is the nuke fanbois either ignore the costs or hand-wave them away: "Nuclear is only expensive because of protests and regulations. Next time will be different. Blah, blah, blah."

Even without considering the costs of waste and accidents, nuclear costs four times as much as wind or solar and has a 20-year lead time.

Tens of thousands of barrels of toxic waste were dumped near Catalina Island, but the vast majority are non-radioactive chemical waste.

DDT leaking from the barrels is a much bigger problem than nuclear waste and shows up in the local sea lion population.

Anyway, there's nothing realistic that we can do about it since any attempt to retrieve the barrels will likely make things worse.

4% of wealth in America is owned by billionaires.

Where is that?

Financing is available for solar installations.
