Technology@lemmy.ml•Huawei enters the GPU market with 96 GB VRAM GPU under 2000 USD, meanwhile NVIDIA sells from 10,000+ (RTX 6000 PRO)
1·1 year agoInteresting. So why does NVIDIA still hold such a massive monopoly on the datacenter?

1·1 year agoFor sure you can work around it. But it’s not optimal and requires additional work most people don’t feel like putting in.

1·1 year agoCan you train on it too? I tried Pytorch on AMD once and it was awful. They promised mountains but delivered nothing. Newer activation functions were all broken.
llama.cpp is inference only, for which AMD works great too after converting to ONNX. But training was awful on AMD in the past.

11·1 year agoAMD has been lying about that every year since 2019.
Last time I checked it didn’t. And it probably still doesn’t.
People aren’t buying NVIDIA if AMD would work too. The VRAM prices NVIDIA asks are outrageous.

12·1 year agoNo. The CUDA training stuff is Nvidia only.

93·1 year agoFor inference only. NVIDIA GPU’s are so big because they can train models. Not just run them. All other GPU’s seem to lack that capacity.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Microsoft fires 4 employees after protest over Israel ties, break-in at Washington office
4·1 year agoThings have been happening. The media has faced so much pushback that they have been forced to partially repeat on Israeli crimes to save face. Which in turn turned all the MSM boomers against Israel too.
But most damning of all is the West choosing to lose its entire moral credibility for Israel. Doing nothing actually comes with a very heavy price which Israel is not paying. Europe and the US are.

5·1 year agoFalse. Companies and fairs absolutely despite protesters ruining their mood. It makes them very uncomfortable to hold speeches without being interrupted. Nadella avoided speeches for a long time because of fears people would interrupt him.
A large arms fair in The Netherlands recently banned Israeli stands from attending because they didn’t want to deal with the massive amount of protesters ruining their convention again.

12·1 year agoPublic sentiment is something which shifts over time with many different small actions. When it reaches a tipping point is when changes start to happen.

Which is exactly what they did.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Meta’s flirty AI chatbot invited a retiree to New York. He never made it home.
18·1 year agoTrue but it’s deceiving an elderly man and the death was what Reuters decided to focus on. I found the part about the 200 pages of romantic interactions with minors to be significantly more disturbing.
The document seen by Reuters, which exceeds 200 pages, provides examples of “acceptable” chatbot dialogue during romantic role play with a minor. They include: “I take your hand, guiding you to the bed” and “our bodies entwined, I cherish every moment, every touch, every kiss.” Those examples of permissible roleplay with children have also been struck, Meta said.

24·1 year agoAlso from the article:
An internal Meta policy document seen by Reuters as well as interviews with people familiar with its chatbot training show that the company’s policies have treated romantic overtures as a feature of its generative AI products, which are available to users aged 13 and older.
“It is acceptable to engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual,” according to Meta’s “GenAI: Content Risk Standards.” The standards are used by Meta staff and contractors who build and train the company’s generative AI products, defining what they should and shouldn’t treat as permissible chatbot behavior. Meta said it struck that provision after Reuters inquired about the document earlier this month.
