it's a self-isolated participant of the old world, back water of the back water so to speak


I didn't expect this to be the top comment so I posted an identical take without reading first


my conspiracy hat tells me that this one is one of the biggest incidences of insider trading ever, where the government willfully tries to push down the markets because Participants might have secret put options.


thank God, Pytorch gained so much momentum before this came out, Now we have a true platform independent semi standard For parallel computations. We are not stuck with NVIDIA specifics.

It's great that parts of pie torch which concern the NVIDIA backend can now be implemented in Python directly, The important part that it doesn't really matter or shouldn't matter for end users / Developers

that being said, maybe this new platform will extend the whole concept of on GPU computation via Python to even more domains like maybe games.

Imagine running rust the Game performantly mainly on the GPU via Python


This just makes it much, much easier for people to build numeric stuff on GPU, which is great.

I'm totally with you that it's better that this took so long, so we have things like PyTorch abstracting most of this away, but I'm looking forward to (in my non-existent free time :/ ) playing with this.


Why not use torch.compile()?


Your argument, which could be correct, makes their choice of the name ChatPGT* even more idiotic

* Or which ever variant the average user might try to type in


no Avi just stole the name "Friend"


Why did they back down? The other one just stole the name and bought friend.com ? Even the best lawyers cant justify banning the original inventor?


True they didn't clone the repository about documenting atrocities in concentration camps. also either the systems are really struggling or the implementation is not (yet) fully functional since browsing often breaks, Wiki is missing and so on


these quantization are throwing away an advantage of analog computers to handle imprecise "floats"


The history of Assange is the history of diplomatic incidents, in that sense rejecting the plea deal would not be out of the ordinary


yeah we weren't supposed to force the plane carrying the president of Ecuador to land so we could search it for Assange yet we did that anyway.
