Large groups of people all contributing small amounts towards a goal none of them could accomplish on their own is the only way any of those things ever get done.
Sure, but that has nothing to do with watching the news though, I would put it paying attention to the news actually takes time from things you could do.
I could be wrong but my understanding is that 24/7 dedicated servers are wildly economically unviable. The reason cloud tends to cost less than local today (other than the subsidization) is because you aren't running models 24/7. So like 6 hours of cloud per weekday might beat the yearly cost of building local machines, but it's not in the same universe if you're running 24/7, as evidenced by two months of H200 rental costing more than the DGX Spark this Laptop is built out of.
Except that's the point. It is the same store. It is two different cashiers. The second one doesn't know you got the ID from the first one, that's why it works. The point is that if a store like that existed, it would be stupid as fuck.
Also, at least in ChatGPT, it has access to every other session, so you're never working with zero context unless you create a new account (and even then they could have other fingerprinting, I just haven't tested it).
I haven't trusted that disable switch for a while now... I'd always had it disabled, but there was one conversation in particular where it referenced a past conversation - despite memory being disabled - and when I asked it why it responded the way it did, it pretended I was mistaken and told me it has no memory of past conversations, even though I could scroll up and see it in the response.
Just because you flip a switch doesn't mean the switch is _actually_ flipped. Same thing goes for turning off wifi/Bluetooth on iOS.
If it's a software switch, it's closer to a promise than a guarantee.
Well, they're entirely different, not just slot. Intel 12th/13th/14th gens all support DDR4 or DDR5. However, the motherboards you buy can only support one or the other. I don't think there are a single AMD CPU that supports both?
Amazon was founded in 1994 and turned their first profit in 2001. A better example would be Uber, which ran negative until they had less than one year of runway remaining and then were somehow allowed to scam pedestrians into keeping their unprofitable taxi business solvent.
Uber lost all of the money all of the original investors gave them, and sold that bag of dog shit to the public. Everyone who bought the IPO lost money.
The way it’s supposed to work is that the government sells bonds and the money goes away. Much like your original premise, it doesn’t much make sense that people think modern monetary policy only thought up quantitative easing and not quantitative tightening.
Can’t speak to how it will end up working, but its definitely not a surprise.
