More sophisticated as in paying HF to get involved, and hyping up GLM for something that it may not actually detect?

If that was true China wouldn’t be able to launch as much as they have done

But do you know why mice is often used instead of says, cat?

Who are "us"? Maybe you can set up a simonw-free forum and bring your like minded over there?

Why not? The author have their own reasons to do it. Did they ask you to use it instead of the official build? It's a github repo.

Why does there need to be a business case? They aren't selling it.

Yes, if that’s your belief. Do you practice what you preach? Do you use oil-based products? Do you transit via Dubai or Istanbul?

The issue with Musk related politics here is pretending higher moral positions. Even though I’m against China’s policies, I have absolutely no issues with Chinese products. Their achievements are phenomenal (look at that Europe and India). I’m against hypocrisy.

Again, do you practice what you preach?

One of those terrible decisions was probably hiring too many developers, how do you suggest they fix that issue, besides changing leadership?

Many of those developers may not have the job elsewhere, or job paying much less. They now have the experience working in a proper software engineering environment.

Where are you located? I'm looking as we speak at a bunch of YT videos of women with cleavage, or promoting fashion that involve stripping down to their underwear.

There are awful models, and there are models nobody use, to paraphrase. Anthropic’s revenue skyrocketed earlier this year, according to their IPO filing. There has simply been too much demand. That’s the growing pain that everyone love to have, other than the affected users of course. That was why they paid a premium for all of the computing they could get from SpaceX, Amazon, Google.

Where are Chinese companies on your scale? Mistral?

That's right. Why would you?

Other people seem to be fine with it. Why wouldn't they?

you wouldn’t need to track non CP content to track people downloading CP.

May be not, but you need to be able to track down CP content viewers. How can you identify them without identifiable info of all porn watchers?

What if someone accidentally clicks on such a piece. How long should they be viewing it to be considered a violator?

How do you track them? That means you'd have to know all porn watchers. That's privacy violation. It's no difference than the age verification debate raging on here. Violation of the privacy of the majority for a tiny amount of violation.

Democracy cannot be taken for granted. There are always tendencies to drift toward authoritarian. China is authoritarian, full stop. They are capitalism, not communism, but authoritarian. Keep that in mind when discussing what come out of China.

"Typical" usually means typical, i.e. median. Also they are claiming cost saving, not performance. The saving would even be more impressive if much older chips are less efficient than the newer ones -- costing more to run.

What do you think of China, also dumb, or just blindly FOMO?

Plans for space data centers should be seen with skepticism. However when they are backed by different parties who have stakes in the game, that's more credible. More than HN crowd for sure.

I haven't seen this discussed here:

So far, the accelerator is showing cost savings of roughly 50% compared with typical AI graphics processing units, Broadcom Chief Executive Officer Hock Tan said in an interview. - [0]

50% cost saving. The picture changes so quickly, there are still a lot of low hanging fruits, that I find any discussion about whether a vendor has moats, or if they can recoup investment, is moot and futile.

Do you have inside knowledge?

Huh? This is like saying "Maybe she should not be wearing too revealing dress" about a rape victim.

You mean TikTok? Kids aren't on FB

Revenue is moat. Ask Amazon. Or Alibaba. Or Temu.

You don't know what Cursor's game plan was. Maybe acquisition was their plan.

Buying at $1 and selling for $0.1 is still viable as long as they have money in the bank, until they achieve their goals. Most startups start out that way. Even giving away their services for free.

Obviously there will be failures. Doesn't mean they have no moat. Can you say a business with 100 customers and $1000 debt is less viable than one with a single customer and no debt?

Keep your shitty opinion to yourself.

Look in the mirror and do the same

Bad takes.

edicting grand policy plans to limit the impact of massive job displacement that their products might cause

Your own job, assuming you're in the software industry, is to automate and eliminate people's jobs. How many jobs do you think it has eliminated? Do you feel you are responsible for your products? Is it ethical to do your job without thinking about and discussing its impacts?

My take: being also in the industry, software has created way more jobs, new businesses, new fields than the jobs it has eliminated. Nobody knows how AI will turn out, it being still at the beginning, although it will certainly have big impact and job displacement will be substantial. The hope is that it will be net plus for the society. At least Anthropic is talking about it. I never heard of, for example DeepSeek's position about the impacts of their products.

directly funding and coordinating missionary-type activities ("it's for a greater cause") to evangelize and propagate said products in areas of the economy that are usually underfunded and where job security is already quite bad (non-profits, NGOs)

If you've volunteered for non-profits, you'd find that many of them are underfunded AND understaffed. Removing burdens on any part of their work, especially areas that aren't directly related to their core services, is hugely beneficial. It's easy to criticize from behind the keyboard.

Unfortunately opinions like yours scratch an itch of the HN crowd. Regardless of objectivity.

... things like bookkeeping, volunteer coordination, etc

Are they physical work? Maybe you're saying they aren't important?

So your ideas of having AI sovereign is to turn to Chinese models? Do you know what their intention will be and where will they go?

You don't like US models because their values don't align with yours, but then you turn to Chinese models? See how hypocrite that is?

The thing that nobody talks about is how many EU citizens already are working on frontier models, just inside US companies

Why don't you ask yourself: how come those brilliant European minds couldn't find a job that pays well enough at home? Why could they in the US? There are many more Chinese and Indian, and other internationals working for US companies, outnumbering Europeans. It's not like Europe was intentionally targeted by US companies.

Real GDP has grown 84% in the US since 2000 [0]. EU grown 40-45% in the same span. The two regions were basically had the same economic output in 2000. Europe has been left behind economically.

Living in Europe is nice (I love Europe by the way), but the question is why EU can't compete with the US and increasingly China. Sooner or later that'd affect your living standard as well. Look at how much China has caught up with the West in terms of quality of life.

No matter what a stock broker thinks, the market decides. At this moment SpaceX’s shares are oversubscribed:

Petty personal attack. A technical manager who manages developers should know very well the job of their reports.

"Out of touch elite"? a MAGA-like populism view in a place where MAGA is (rightly) looked down on.

But what do you think about her opinion? Is writing code still a job of developers going forward? and why?

Well, confirmation bias. You see what support your beliefs, ignoring anti AI articles being promoted.
