Mixtral GPTQ can run on a 3090
Mistral 7b can run on most modern gpus
It’s been a good couple of years for news coming out of China.
Maybe we’ll hear about to xi having a heart attack next
But why male models?
That’s ( fixed, messed up mah conversion) .1wh for a second of 3090 time/ 30 images a second.
If a 3090 drew 3 watt hours in 1/30th of a second it would melt.
Possibly off by one order of magnitude though… Editing post to see, and it looks like I was. 300 images per charge instead of 3000.
This is outdated in a big way with stable diffusion turbo and the recent LCM models that can render images at 30fps on a 3090.
360w * 1s /60 seconds a minute / 60 minutes an hour = .1 wh/image
30 images a second? .033 wh
A phone battery is 3000 mah * 3.5volts = 10.5 wh
318 images per phone charge
My math is probably off, but you get the idea.
is doing that by lifting restrictions it previously had on the number of kids per family.
No. They are trying to culturally push people to have kids now. Dropping one child not only didn’t work, their birth rates went down since then.
Putin asking Russians to make more kids won’t magically improve demographics
No, but Putin can do more than ask. So can China.
Money gets around and the government has a history of nailing people in unexpected ways.
1 - Russia tries to force migrants into Finland.
2 - Finland closes borders.
3 - Russia forced to accept migrants.
Perfect outcome.
Kids are cheap. All you really need is food and people.
Schools and car seats and houses are expensive, but if a generation has tons of kids, you’ll have the manpower to make those things in 15 years.
Russia is kind of fucked right now and not only in demographic decline, but making it worse by killing half their young people. Will they pull out of it? Probably not.
But can they afford it? They absolutely can. And it’s bad news for the rest of the world if they do. Don’t underestimate this move. Especially because China is doing the same.
Not really.
Rob a bank? Thanks to serial numbers they can tell it’s you who is using the money.
Steal from your neighbor? Same deal. Someone will notice.
It’s all risks and consequences. Most big acts of “evil” still have those risks and consequences even if you can stop time or whatever else. And your ability is going to be worth so much fuck you money to scientific and other use cases that you really won’t have reason to steal or whatever.
Open AI has been a farce ever since they disabled access to GPT3 for the sake of security.
Do you want AI to exclusively be in the hands of big companies and the government?
Do you want the future of technology locked behind pay walls and censored so that you can’t use it to do anything they don’t want you to do?
If you think AI regulation comes in the form of making sure big companies can’t do bad things to you, you haven’t been paying attention.
Big AI regulation fan.
I’d say good riddance but the replacement is worse

They’re doing it in every country really.
Hot take.
Memes are common things that have existed as long as humans have.
Historians of the future will not only understand our memes easily, but because they’re (hopefully) more advanced future humans with better technology and culture they’ll be sharing memes that put ours to shame.
They’re not going to be confused.
They’re going to cringe.
Turns out a mass terror attack on a nation rarely benefits the attacker or the nation that was attacked, normally with the attacker coming away worse than their better armed opponent.
It’s basically 9/11 all over again. But on a smaller scale and with a Middle Eastern nation far happier to be brutal on the targeted side.
Saudi is probably more annoyed at Hamas for getting in the way of their plans than they are considering cutting off their deals.
Fuck Quebec
