Open source it first, then I’m interested.

This guy sounds like he snorted every 60s-70s sci fi at once and now his goal in life is creating the torment nexus. I had no idea that the CEO of Y Combinator(hacker news?) had “friends” like this?

paywalled :/

Damn it. That would have been a strong blow against openai’s agressive monetisation if it was a legitimate lawsuit.

yeah, I wrote a “conspiracy theory” of sorts as a comment a few months ago about that as the situation developed. Turns out it was true, microsoft used OpenAI’s CEO to remove critical board members, so they get control over the non-profit part of the company that controls the patents/software.

I think it will be released pre-trained if they are forced to make it open source, otherwise they are not actually releasing chatgpt/dall-e, just the underlying technology they used to make it. No idea however if musks lawyers know that.

it wouldnt be useless, most “open source” models work like this. But yeah, having access to the dataset is very important, and in my opinion open source licenses requires its inclusion. However, no legal battles have been fought over that fact yet…

He wasnt that charismatic. Microsoft offered everyone at openai a spot in their top ai division if they signed that letter, with all the employee benefits and clout that microsoft employment can offer. Of course they signed it!

wow, that could actually be big if openAI loses! Imagine open source chatGPT and Dall-E…

Hmm, i don’t entirely understand your point. Buyers are private using Taler, and you can’t find out who bought something. You cant trace a coin to its owner. And last I checked, businesses dont pay in cash, it goes through a bank, so the privacy level doesn’t change compared to what we do today.

True. However, I think its unreasonable to demand a digital euro that is also private for businesses, as the only benefit from that would be enabling tax evasion and selling illegal goods. There are differences between physical anonymous payments and online anonymous payments. The problem is scale and reach. You cant just send millions of euro in cash to someone in a different country, you can with online payments. That allows for money laundering and illegal markets at a scale never seen before.

So yes, it will be different than cash, but your identity cant be traced, so id call it a worthy replacement.

As long as the right concept wins - yes.

For example GNU Taler could be used for the digital euro. Its anonymous for the buyer, backed by banks and traditional banking infrastructure and fast.

Its also somewhat unlikely to win. Lets hope the people in brussels make the right decision.

Sure. There are benefits to devs without degrees, as they usually start working earlier in their lives so they have more work experience. And hard screening for a degree is probably not helpful anyway, there are other ways to become a proficient developer. You can read about the fundamentals without ever going to a class about it!

Ive heard from quite a few developers that people without degrees in CS program differently than with a degree. CS teaches the theoretical fundamentals that you could go your entire life without knowing and still perform well in a job, but they do help when e.g. building novel solutions, reframing problems into more general problems that were solved 40 years ago, and getting an overview of how everything works can prevent reinventing the wheel.

to add to the other answers, stable cascade isn’t open source :(

is this an open source AI?

That sounds both dystopian and amazing. Bio-neural-CPU’s when?

yeah! Just look at that…beauty…

Well, right now its just an unconfirmed theory, but I would say yes, thats exactly what happened.
