Something I heard recently both surprised me, yet at the same time resonated with me. It was the view that the 21st century is being modeled in China's image where the 20th century was modeled on America. The US thought it would make China more like it, instead America has become more like China - transactional and authoritarian in its dealings with the world.

Paradoxically their approach is to use less training data. HF are saying they have reverse engineered some of the capabilities of OpenAI’s o1 model, by using an approach called 'Test-time compute scaling' which OpenAI have acknowledged using, but not disclosed exactly how.

Just as the investor funded AI companies think they have the shallowest of moats, and a chance to build revenue, no - once again Open Source is snapping at their heels. Someone is going to blink first in this race, and I suspect it will be the investor funded AI companies.

The video game industry is a huge employer. It makes you wonder how much longer we will be saying that.

AGI, genetic editing of humans for starters. Advanced robotics, the discovery of alien life. Maybe another new paradigm in our understanding of the science and the universe on a par with Einstein's?

At least all the China EV tariffs will take some of the pressure off them. They can continue to trundle on being second-rate.

The problem is feeding them crap will keep them low IQ. Most parents want the highest quality educational content instead.

with the safety flag happily waving...........fled the scene.

Anthropomorphising much? Its like saying a toaster that broke down turned on you in a hissy fit.

This idea seems economically illiterate. In a world where humans don't earn money, how do we have a stock market supporting these valuations?

Maybe I'm paranoid, but why does my mind straight away go to all the nefarious ways this could be used. Creative criminals and intelligence agencies could find many uses for this technology when it matures.
