It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine? No, I'm ashamed to be a Michigan Wolverine.

Speaking this way about LLMs gives them agency they simply do not have and is providing cover to those committing the violence: Musk, Altman, Zuck, etc.

The left can't leverage LLMs because they don't have the data nor the platforms to do so, not because they're only useful for violence.

Squatting 4X per week. 🙂 I promise after a few weeks you'll never be sore again.

Yes. And North Cap Hill also has what'd I'd consider extremely rich people. I live adjacent to Capitol Hill and the only reason I don't live there is that I couldn't afford to unless I return to renting.

To model the climate we need equations, using trad physics, that are so computationally expensive they require large data centers like DOE traditionally builds for even small scale modeling. AI can help provide accurate proxies for those equations with lower cost. Giving us better predictions.

The crazy physics in advanced packaging to improve memory capacity, performance, and energy efficiency are becoming more costly and difficult to scale. It's why companies like TSMC are so valuable.

The limits are on memory, the most costly semiconductor resource in terms of energy and $. Most advancements in LLM capabilities have come from techniques to allow them to scale across massive amounts of compute and to leverage many more parameters (memory). They haven't gotten smarter just bigger.

Don't see what's interesting about your observation. The discussion has never been about the ratio of men in any demo obtaining a bachelor's. The question has been once women achieved parity why did men start opting out?

To the contrary, I have a hard time thinking of many authoritarian leaders who were ousted *in the absence of* mass protests. There were often accompanying factors like a contested election, elite divisions, etc. But no mass protests at all? Tough to recall any such cases.

Why is “access” to this regime so important to reporters given the body of work of its leader(s) and the way they gaslight through lies and obfuscation?

Credible outlets should be able to narrate exactly what the regime is up to without needing access to propaganda.

Consider the possibility that the Trump White House WANTS this fight. Wants journalists to act like opponents instead of observers. If the entire press pool skipped a Trump photo op in solidarity with The AP, wouldn't the White House welcome Breitbart and One America News to take their places?

And, are you or your colleagues boycotting covering the WH as a protest?
