I mean yeah, the purpose of these companies is to put taxes back into the pockets of billionaires instead of spending them on stuff they’re meant for like infrastructure, healthcare, education, and so on. That’s why majority Americans live like dogs.

send me a dm cause I have a bridge to sell you 😂

Lockheed model of sucking up taxes without producing anything only works when the US feels they have superiority over the adversaries. Now that it’s becoming clear this is not the case, there will be a push to actually have to produce things that work, and Lockheed isn’t good at doing that.

A 6th gen fighter coming out of China while the US can’t make their 5th gen fighter work properly certainly does look bad for Lockheed.

You mean when Israel aborted the bulk of their attack because they got painted by radar?

I’m sure it’ll be just as successful at sucking up billions in taxes with nothing to show for it.

They’re saying that the military might shift focus to development of 6th gen fighters to catch up with China.

Exact same question can be asked about SeepSeek.

it’ll go right to the “beyond my current scope” message (in English)

Much like Gemini does whenever you ask it anything about US politics

no prob

there’s some more info with benchmarks here, it does as well and in some cases better than top tier commercial models https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2024/12/deepseek-v3/

The trick that makes it possible is the mixture-of-experts approach. While it has 671 billion parameters overall, it only uses 37 billion at a time, making it very efficient. For comparison, Meta’s Llama3.1 uses 405 billion parameters used all at once. It also has 128K token context window means it can process and understand very long documents, and processes text at 60 tokens per second, twice as fast as GPT-4o.

It sounds like devs working at Deepseek are living the dream. The environment is collaborative and open-source, with a focus on passion and interest rather than monetization. And it sounds like it’s largely self-directed with people working on projects that genuinely interest them, which is great for creativity and innovation. This is absolutely amazing stuff.

Yeah, I’ve run into that too. Not really sure what’s causing that. Might be worth opening an issue to see if the author might have some insights.

Yup, it comes with a number of trained models, and you can use custom models as well.

It has both male and female voices, but you can only use a single voice for a book

For sure, and the results are surprisingly good I find. It has some quirks, but overall it’s a pretty decent narration.

the internet has ruined you 🤣

As far as I know carbon fiber is somewhat expensive to make too. That is a promising approach though. I imagine we’ll see a combination of different battery approaches going forward optimized for different use cases. I do think we’ll be seeing increasing amount of research going into this with electric vehicles and renewable energy becoming more common.

Burning hydrogen is clean actually, you get get water as exhaust. The problem with hydrogen is that most of it isn’t produced in a clean way right now. Although, it is possible to do so. Volatility is also an issue, not sure if making a hydrogen battery could address that or not.
