Trump / Musk is the two-headed avatar of corrupt Capitalism - the final boss - the last stand before it is finally vanquished.

Or use Waterfox which does most of this by default

The BRICS partnership (Of which China is a key player) encompasses almost 50% of the world's population, and their Belt and Road initiative is a soft power wet dream.

The world has actually already become multipolar, but most Western media won't make that clear because they are still stuck in the old Colonial mindset of Captialist-Democracy = 100% civilized / Not-a-Capitalist-Democracy = 100% backwards.

There's a YouTube version now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfqLcBwUT_E

I partially wanted to show that, as twisted as Fox news is, they are at least hosting this interview without (much) bias on their front page. It's important, as this is what most of their audience will see of Zelenskyy, and this is essentially as "primary" the source can get.

Ah cheers, misread that!

I highly recommend Kara Swisher's recent book "Burn Book" for insights into the Tech lads like Brin, etc, as she's known most of them since the 90s.

Really helps contextualize the crazy cocktail of engineering/commercial power with general naivety a lot of these guys have going.

"Democracy dies on live TV" - wow that headline hits hard.

Watching this feels like a masterclass of diplomacy. Zelenskyy is talking directly and respectfully to the Fox audience, while trying to clearly explain why Ukraine can't just bow down to faulty peace deals without question.

I would just like to push back and say that the Internet was an open public project, and it has helped countless people across the world. Every single problematic tech that people are pointing to at the moment are closed-source commercial projects.

That is Capitalism at work.

 

Explainer of Diffusion LLMs from Andrej Karpathy: "Most of the LLMs you've been seeing are ~clones as far as the core modeling approach goes. They're all trained "autoregressively", i.e. predicting tokens from left to right. Diffusion is different - it doesn't go left to right, but all at once. You start with noise and gradually denoise into a token stream."

 

Not sure if this has been shared already, but AllenAI / Ai2 is a US-based nonprofit who are trying to build AIs as open-source and transparently as possible.

Their OLMO models have fully transparent training data. Their Tulu ones are as transparent as you can be building on top of Llama. For some positive news out of the US this week, they released their new 405B Parameter model for free online chat and download.
