Data centers are extremely more efficient at throughput compared to any local AI that's not even a competition. Blackwell server GPUs generate trivially 10x more tokens per unit of energy than customer toys.

Thinking effort is, literally, thinking effort. What happens if you force someone to think too much about a very simple problem? They start trying to invent problems to solve. Medium/low are good everyday drivers.

Unless you understand well what you are doing, I would just recommend using Tailscale. Maintaining Internet exposed endpoints requires regular work, and it's getting harder every day.

for data under an NDA that’s the part you can’t do.
Security theatre threat model, NDA should explicitly include these or pay enough to rent GPUs/servers as needed.

I just respond, "Feel free to copy this without AI, ideas are not copyrighted." There is no point in discussing it further, don't get dragged into defending it.

Are you really shocked that Anthropic doesn’t want to open themselves up to legal liabilities
Except for a little fact that service providers are generally not liable for non-lawful actions of user if they don't encourage them.

Security theatre threat model. If you are a normal company, typical ZDR agreements are good enough. If you are under stricter security model, you are working for multi-billion corporation and you can afford local GPU rack.

People routinely mistake money and stuff that can be buy for money, because that approximation works until you start spending billions of dollars on monthly basis.

Increased demand for electricity while we still have not decarbonized our grid is bad, but the best you can do for CO2 emissions is to buy PV or vote for building more clean power.

There has been an increase in income inequality and we absolutely should do something about that.
It's not obvious whether that is real or mostly compositional effects (e.g. older people make more money, aging society will see its income inequality change, despite no individual person's life trajectory changing), and how much of that is accounting artifacts.

Gdyby inteligentny człowiek potrafił dobrze przewidzieć jak nowe rewolucyjne technologie zmienią rynek pracy, to odbierałby Nobla z ekonomii, a nie pisał o tym na Reddicie, bo rynki pracy są skrajnie skomplikowane, silnie regulowane, zależne od stóp procentowych i naczyniami połączonymi.

Biology spent billions of years trying the most nonsensical combinations, it would be very improbable if no virus accidentally stumbled upon "kill all life" cheat code if such cheat code can exist.

I would think there's every reason to suspect it because if their policy was to never use the data to train, and they confidently followed their policy, they could have said none of the data was used to train
Their policy is not to never use the data to train. Their policy is to not use data of users who didn't consent to use their data for training.
Simple code like:
if (user.trainingAllowed) sendToTrainingAnonymizationQueue(request, llmResponse);
return llmResponse;
will result in inability to quickly verify if chats were or were not used for training, if you don't track history of trainingAllowed flag.

Yes, it's highly specific to your area of work and openness of your tasks. Certain types of work never end, for example, improving performance, fraud detection, predictive algorithms, and no PR "solves" performance. If you do generative terrain generation in game, there is no "solution", only better or worse design choices, often with many dimensions.
If you do features for well defined stakeholders, then, indeed, code production is rarely a bottleneck.

In market, today's prices are generally an average of market expectations of mid-term prices. So, it's rarely worth delaying purchases in expectation of prices dropping, unless you accept the risk of prices rising.
It's simple: if I expected that storage prices will double next year, I would hoard storage to sell later, instead of selling it at now. If I expect them to drop, I would just move some of my data to rented storage, and buy actual storage later.

Yes, marriage is widely considered a positive event, and people dream of getting married, while people also dread divorce and put significant efforts to avoid it.

Myślę, że rozsyłając po wszelkich kanałach internetowych można dostać całkiem reorezentatywną próbkę populacji w wielu wypadkach.
Mam nadzieję, że wpadłeś na ten pomysł samemu, a nie powiedział to ktoś na uczelni, bo trzeba by bombardować.

Można wypełnić ankietę zaznaczając "nie" w pierwszym pytaniu. xD

Na polskiej uczelni można teraz zrobić doktorat na podstawie "badania" w postaci ankiety na Reddicie? XDDDD

You can just rotate stuff. This is not hard (it requires no exotic materials nor enormous quantities), and arguably necessary for any semipermanent settlement.

If she always used golden apples to pay for everything, eventually the supply of gold would go up high enough that the price drops and it would stop being worth anything.
This is extremely good for economy and society. Gold is an awesome metal that is underused because of its cost, and if we could, we would cover so many things in gold.

Tak, bo badanie alkomatem jest codziennie, a nie tylko w pierwszy dzień.

Yes, HF incident third party reviews shows that OpenAI explicitly trains for token efficiency and time efficiency.
When reset is coming, and I have usage left, I point Astra xhigh at the repository, and tell it "you have time until 9pm to improve performance of this project", and it significantly improves the quality of work on open-ended tasks (there is no end goal for this one; Astra will cheat if you try this with a closed-ended task to finish before 9pm at any cost).

How do you think unions work?
