Re: As I've said before, environmentalists are not serious people

[Brent Meeker]

Are they really environmentalist? or is that just what they say they 
are?  Did they every do anything to improve the environment?  Sound like 
dumb fucks to me.

LLAMA3

[John Clark]

Meta (a.k.a. Facebook) released LLAMA3 just a few days ago, and it's
amazing for three reasons:
1) It's tiny, it only has 70 billion parameters, GPT4 is about 1.8 trillion
parameters.
2) Despite its small size on AI benchmarks it's performance is just a
smidgen below that of GPT4.
3) It is open source.

Meta says it's performance would be even better if they trained it for
longer but they stopped early because the company's computational resources
are large but not infinite so they decided that compute time could be
better spent training a 400 billion parameter version of LLAMA3, which they
say they'll release sometime in the next couple of months, and in
developing LLAMA4.

And anybody who still thinks the Singularity is not near really needs to
look at the following video. I'll tell you one thing, it sure makes the
issues that most Americans believe are the most important and which will
probably decide the November election, excessive wokeness, the "invasion"
from Mexico, and transsexual bathrooms, seem pretty damn trivial.
