I actually think the fearmongering around security is also the thing now. They see that between gens the models aren’t improving as much, open-weight competition is catching up so they must push the narrative on another feature. If they become “more secure” that will be their market “advantage”.

This will never stop blowing my mind. A 12-year sequence of real telescope images of a star 133 lightyears away. And around it, four planets slowly orbiting. Four real exoplanets, each more massive than Jupiter, imaged as they move around their host star.

This is the dodgiest and most-desperate thing I’ve seen in the bubble so far. Amazon selling their chips to a group of investors and leasing them back - an off balance sheet arrangement done in plain sight. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here. And they’ll probably buy more!
Amazon is seeking to offload about $8bn of advanced Nvidia chips to external investors through a new vehicle aimed at strengthening its balance sheet, according to people familiar with the matter.
The Seattle-based cloud giant has held talks with investors in recent weeks to gauge interest in the deal, which would allow the company to spin off thousands of Grace Blackwell chips it is deploying in data centres across the US into a special-purpose vehicle.
Amazon will then lease the advanced AI chips back from the SPV, which would tap outside investors through debt issuance. By unloading the expensive semiconductors to investors, the company could adopt a more asset-light approach to its balance sheet.

I do ponder if I somehow penetrate the security of a bank and steal money, when they come to arrest me, can I just say it’s my AI model and the police will just go away? OpenAI and Anthropic commit cybercrime and suffer no punishment. Why can’t I?

This was also a great move when playing Tropico. Maybe a new game can be Trumpico where it’s like Tropico but instead of a tropical country in dictatorship it’s the US.

So far iOS with the same embedding model is faster, by no surprise, in CoreML (38ms) but LiteRT(42ms) is 4ms slower with less code. ONNX is +100ms slower, at 192ms to load the same model, “all-MiniLM-L6-v2”, into memory to start embedding things.

As a personal preference, Kotlin and Android still are the best to me. But Swift is fun, iOS development doesn’t seem extremely different. More of a strong opinion now: Xcode is horrible.

Am I criminally awake so late? Yes, but am I making vector search on iOS because there are doubts about Apple ML solutions versus 3rd party ones (LiteRT or ONNX). The only way to see the real change is to implement and benchmark it. Current dataset is Enron fraud emails.

My goal is to mainly have a decide, mid tier or low tier for iOS people to see what they can or cannot run. Could they have a nice embeddings model running locally without a hassle or is that too much? Would a 1GB LLM work on their device? These are the things keeping me up at night.

Entertainment can never be bigger than resisting the apartheid & genocide of fellow human beings.
Neutrality' in the face of the slaughter of more than 20,000 children can never be neutrality
No artist should tolerate the censorship of another artist, however many millions of dollars are in play
The arc of state, corporate & media silence that allowed a genocide to take place seeks to coerce high profile artists & actors into that silence.
We stand in solidarity with all artists risking their careers in defence of the rights of the Palestinian people, & against the illegal occupation, apartheid, war crimes & ongoing genocide perpetrated by the State of Israe
