Much respect to the anchoring skills of Sam Altman tho. "I need 7 trillion dollars and then I will kill God" and then they gave him half a trillion.

wow so much of chatgpts perceived value comes from hyping it up? how would we have ever guessed.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I love how it being inefficient seemed to be its biggest selling point too lol.

Wait, it's not going to use up all of the world's resources? Nevermind, I don't want that.

He saved so much money by training it on a corpus of Erlich Bachman insults

Every time I read Erlich's name, I hear Jin Yang struggling to pronounce it.

This is how the US AI-dev sector decides to proceed at flank speed without safeguards towards friendly AI, leading to a robot apocalypse, sparing us from climate-crisis-induced famine!

I feel like the robots have already earned their leadership

Aren't the algorithm in use pretty much scientifically published?

When I heard there is a chinese one I was mostly surprised that other people were surprised.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 2 months ago (3 children)

IMO with the Chinese attitude towards education, community, and government investment in contrast to the US attitude, it's only a matter of time before they take the lead in many tech categories.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago

The USA is already behind... and education is a thing that takes decades to pump or destroy. Even if the USA turns ship now (and they are not) the damage has been done for at least 2 generations of students.

The damage has been mitigated by importing so many smart people from elsewhere... but even that is getting destroyed so there is no saving it anymore

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 months ago

Thanks to U.S. stupidity, greed and a certain felon, China will assume the position of the number one world leader very, very soon.

~~Chinese ChatGPT~~

Why are you clapping me, I'm wrong? I thought everything on the board was "chinese facebook" etc, but infact, the guy I replied to is right.

not hot dog

Neo-Liberalism: Let's hire anyone from anywhere, just the best candidates no matter what, no other values but who we can extract the most value from. Let's also take money from the government and lobby them to defund themselves and the country's services to give us even more money.

Oh wow! How does China steal our tech?! Why wasn't the government funding education and security to protect us?!?

[–] [email protected] 70 points 2 months ago (1 children)

deepseek is not stolen tech, it was trained using novel innovations that western companies were not doing

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (4 children)

I thought the innovative part was using more efficient code, not what it’s trained on.

[–] [email protected] 56 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.20304 they invented their own reinforcement learning framework called Group Relative Policy Optimization

EDIT: deepseek publicly released and published the model and methods to the global community, and there is now an open effort by researchers to reproduce them https://github.com/huggingface/open-r1 it is like the opposite of stealing

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Yeah the original comment in this chain more describes US Telcos and shit, not this particular instance.

Im guessing you have never done business in China.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Do you want my boss to ask me who I voted for and who I pray for? Are you crazy? That's not their business. They HAVE to hire based on the value they'll give to the company

You're telling me a country that could give a flying fuck about international patent law copied and replicated something? Say it ain't so.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (2 children)

This is the third time I've seen this exact image used in relation to this. First was a YouTube video, second was a mastodon post, and now this. Not sure who started it, but I feel it's kinda racist and just shitty. I get the reference, but it's nothing more than "haha, asian guy that was on computer stuff show".

[–] [email protected] 38 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Why do you people get offended on our behalf for even the most minuscule thing. What's racist about it? On the contrary, it's fucking awesome that some Chinese manage to do this with a meager sum in such time. Why would I want people to use a non Asian person to represent an Asian guy?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

my taking offense isn't even because of the race mostly. it's because they are saying it's a clone of o1. Of which it is not. That's some very good development that's been done and open sourced so anyone can use it for free which is being overshadowed by the fact that it happened in China and not 'murica

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (6 children)

What's racist about it?

It's because people the meme states that DeepSeek didn't accomplish anything novel. That the real innovation was done in America with ChatGPT. And there is a narrative that the Chinese are not original, but only really good at copying other people's work often using inferior parts. That last part, while not explicit in the meme, is in the culture.

My understanding is that what DeepSeek did was novel for the training data it used l. However, there are some experts who question the ability to train the model using the limited budget they claimed and their understanding of the field would require far more processing power. I think there's a non-racist and racist way of interpreting and answering this question.

Edit: it's also important that this is a shit post.

You can decide if this post is racist or not. https://lemmy.ml/post/25316007

His character tried to make cheap Chinese knockoffs of all major platforms and products.

Deep dive is a cheap Chinese knockoff of ChatGPT.

It's a good joke, Bront

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's not really a cheap knockoff though, it's a revolution in efficiency. It proved that you don't need $100m to beat the best models if you show a bit of ingenuity

It's like building a boat to cross a lake when everyone around you is trying to use their car by adding tires to increase buoyancy (nvidia are the ones selling tires)

I love how they open sourced the model.
