At a resolution of 7680 × 4320 with 31.5" inch screen we get a PPI 280, which is comparable to mobile phones (which we use at a much closer distance than monitors).

This almost looks to be at the edge of human perception.

It would be great to be able to test out 8K and 16K screen in a blind test and see what the stats are like for people with good eyesight.

I am one of those people that has always used Firefox on Android. Had to use Chrome mobile a little while ago and the top address bar placement was so uncomfortable.

I am not a lawyer. I am talking about reality.

What does an LLM application (or training processes associated with an LLM application) have to do with the concept of learning? Where is the learning happening? Who is doing the learning?

Who is stopping the individuals at the LLM company from learning or analysing a given book?

From my experience living in the US, this is pretty standard American-style corruption. Lots of pomp and bombast and roleplay of sorts, but the outcome is no different from any other country that is in deep need of judicial and anti-corruotion reform.

Consumers in Beijing and Shanghai are now entitled to discounts of up to 2,000 yuan (US$278) on select models of Apple devices – including the iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and MacBook – when they buy directly from the US company, according to a statement published on Tuesday on Apple’s mainland Chinese website.

That’s a crazy government subsidy. There must be some grey-market trade going on with get the devices to buyer outside of Beijing and Shanghai.

I will admit this is not a simple case. That being said, if you’ve lived in the US (and are aware of local mores), but you’re not American. you will have a different perspective on the US judicial system.

How is right to learn even relevant here? An LLM by definition cannot learn.

Where did I say analyzing a text should be restricted?

The x50 and x60 series are trash if you look real world prices (it’s worse where I live, but to my understanding it’s a global issue).

If you have a mid-2010s era CPU (and your finances are flexible), it’s probably a good idea to get a new CPU as well.

And this is how you know that the American legal system should not be trusted.

Mind you I am not saying this an easy case, it’s not. But the framing that piracy is wrong but ML training for profit is not wrong is clearly based on oligarch interests and demands.

I am aware of the 5060, it’s a more morbid curiosity if you will.

Curious to see real world benchmarks for the 5050 and 5050 mobile.

There have been so many variations of “[Google brand] + TV” that I had to look up what this particular business unit actually does.

Lo and behold I see this message on Wikipedia:

Not to be confused with Google TV (interface), Google TV (service), or Android TV. For other uses, see Google TV (disambiguation).

It would make no difference at all.

While US export controls have effectively blacklisted many Chinese chip designers and fabs from doing business with the likes of TSMC or lithography linchpin ASML, exemptions have been granted for many legacy nodes and memory technologies.

These exemptions have enabled TSMC as well as South Korean memory vendors Samsung and SK Hynix to continue operating facilities in China.

I hope the US administration will not go through with targeting “legacy” foreign semiconductor production facilities in China. I am going to speculate that this will have an impact beyond local Asia-Pacific markets.

“After discussion between Intel and Canonical’s security teams, we are in agreement that Spectre no longer needs to be mitigated for the GPU at the Compute Runtime level. At this point, Spectre has been mitigated in the kernel, and a clear warning from the Compute Runtime build serves as a notification for those running modified kernels without those patches. For these reasons, we feel that Spectre mitigations in Compute Runtime no longer offer enough security impact to justify the current performance tradeoff.”

Seems like the Spectre mitigations were applied for GPU compute as well.

1 to 5 percentage points is not great, but in and around the margin of error. 20% is a huge performance delta.

While it’s true that in an industry like semiconductors multi-year end to end product cycles make it difficult to make radical changes. I am still not convinced Lip-Bu Tan will be a positive force since he seems to emphasizing generic business communication polemics.

One example would his statement about only working on projects that offer 50% gross margins. That’s great and all, but a company in Intel’s position and with competition like TSMC is going to find that challenging.

Circle of life. I am guessing it will be 22-23 years or so.

I missed the 7000 series. Went with 6600 GT when I was building a new PC in early 2005.

The PowerVia does sound cool and 18A is allegedly a big step for Intel.

That being said I don’t trust Lip-Bu Tan to deliver. It sounds like he is more focused on “leverging AI to improve costs in marketing” than delivering new semiconductors.

I could be wrong though.

On one hand, this is definitely an interesting article. But there is distinct lack of use case description for an article with a title that refers to “useful quantum computing”.

The company said it believes Accenture, using artificial intelligence, will do a better job connecting with customers. It says it will tell most marketing employees by July 11 whether it plans to lay them off.

Lip-Bu Tan comes off as another vapid senior executive.

From what I’ve heard Eutelsat’s has a ways to go before it becomes comparable to Starlink, but they do have one strength; they are not based in the US and are run a fascist American oligarch.
