“True” leftists would actually agree with you that Biden was even more evil than Trump.

There is zero chance it will be released (even if it’s true)

It will still run necessary calculations much slower than a gpu, so you will need to run it much longer for the same result, which is not only inconvenient but will likely use more power in the end anyway.

This will just waste even more energy since cpus are less efficient at this kind of task.

LLMs require insane amounts of compute, period. The hardware to do that needs energy and emits heat, there is no way around.

That’s still just moving the impact from data centers to end users’ machines.

Gamers (especially those that own 5090) are a tiny minority compared to llm users.

It’s really easy to not use ai. It’s not a necessity and not even a part of any “lifestyle” that some people would miss.

They are not magic. You are still using electricity, and for the same amount of work that cloud providers do you will consume the same amount. If every one of the billions of people using chatgpt or whatever buys rtx 5090 and makes it churn 24/7 for their “local” ai then nothing will change for the environment.

So you don’t care about environment, huh?

Firefox tries but this is very hard to fight against. Most of the obvious holes were closed long ago. Now these fuckers use normal browser functionality that can’t be disabled and record how it subtly differs (in various ways like execution time of functions) between different combinations of browsers, OSes, hardware, etc. This information alone is enough to create a more or less unique fingerprint.

The only reliable solution is to completely get rid of client-side code execution like JavaScript and WebAssembly and return to static web pages. Which of course won’t happen.

You should always measure first before blindly following dogmas. I doubt that the choice of serialization format is what dominates processor time in this case.

Performance doesn’t matter unless you are dealing with gigabytes of xml. And ease of parsing/writing is irrelevant when it’s done under the hood by the program.

Happens all the time with GitHub Actions when they update runner images. According to Microsoft, it’s “fundamentally unfixable”.

Do you use cloud or local ai to write your comments?

Copyright exists so that corporations can extract profit from their “intellectual property” by restricting other people’s free creative expression.

Copyright should not exist

The repository is called “car navigation” so yeah.

Qt Company itself also invests heavily in Qt for Automotive platforms.

That’s their modus operandi. Next they will claim that it’s totally an agi and is too dangerous to release, before starting to sell it. Or is this anthropic’s playbook?

The only thing local llms which regular PCs can run are capable of is generating basic boilerplate code. Which you only need to do if you create a new project every day and need to automate it. They are useless for working on established codebase.

Lots of things are not necessary and are bad for the climate. You likely enjoy many of them. You start by reducing your own consumption.

PC has been digital only for at least 15 years.
