Twitter is transforming into X, as the site’s former bird logo has now been replaced by an official new X logo.

I mean an "average" computer would require a pretty beefy set of hardware. I think most of the average local llama's would run fairly decently on a MacBook without issue nowadays (that m3 is going to be a pretty awesome beast). But the quality is pretty reduced even compared to something like 3.5 which most people thought wasn't all that great.
But really, I'm excited about researchers have access to more computer for smaller amounts (see this https://www.chatgptguide.ai/2023/07/20/worlds-largest-supercomputer-for-ai-training-is-out/) currently we have 1T models that are good, but we could pretty soon have 100T models from the open source community. Let's see whether we can scale the hardware needs with the parameter growth so we don't need A100s to run a decent model.
The target of keeping long-term global warming within 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 Fahrenheit) is moving out of reach, climate experts say, with nations failing to set more ambitious goals.
I suppose so, but in a practical sense they will make laws that will negate your existence and will have police and or military show up at your door to enforce it. There will be no use to have guns then, if they even notice a gun they'll probably just bomb your entire house like they did to black wall street. They give zero fucks.
Have you seen the police acting as an extension of states blocking abortion and reporting people? Or police acting as a GOP mafia? Or police in general and their treatment of people? Why do you think they are armored up with humvees and military hardware? I mean I get it. I'm armed. But I want to understand this viewpoint deeply because I don't see this as anything other than a reason for them to simply firebomb us. I'm not saying to give up either.
If you want a revolution stack the military. Join the military. Or the police even. Mobilize voters. I honestly don't have a solution, it just seems like a facist society usually overwhelms everything because they have the government military/and or police.

Members of SAG-AFTRA and the National Association of Voice Actors united at San Diego Comic-Con to address artificial intelligence and how it can harm creators.
I think they fail to see that it doesn't matter. As long as it reduces cost capitalism doesn't really give a shit what happens to them. In a normal society you'd expect government regulation to step in to either alleviate or ease this change of jobs into becoming fully AI automated, along with some safe guards. But I just don't see that happening in America.
Because we need a safeguard for people? We should as a society alleviate suffering. We shouldn't surrender to dehumanizing, or ignoring them. Although as your comment suggests, we shouldn't give a shit either way
