Is it possible to run multimodal LLMs using their Vulkan backend? I have a ton of 4gb gpus laying around that only support vulkan.

Yes, llama.cpp has very good Vulkan support.

This gotta be an LLM

This is going to be a life changer for youtubers and creatives who need background songs for their videos, you can now create tailored songs for whatever you need.

Its great, however it sucked in other languages, sounding like a foreigner trying to speak like a local.


Don't they train on your inputs if you use the free Ai studio api key?


speaking for myself, I am happy to make that trade. As long as I get unrestricted access to latest one. Heck, most of my code now is written by gemini anyway haha.


What's the best llm-first/ designed with llm in mind editor? Is it still cursor?

There's windsurf, cline, zed, copilot got a huge update too, is cursor still leading the space?


This like a public-run PayPal alternative. Other countries have moved beyond this, Saudi Arabia for example created Mada, it's alternative for visa and mastercard. They take close to nothing on transactions, and that's how the government could enforce card payments everywhere.

And the cards are hybrids, they support both visa (or mastercard) and mada.


BTW these models arent allowed to be used in the EU.


It literally doesn't matter.

What Hamas did or does, doesn't give any right to Israel to ethnically cleanse, forcibly displace, massacre 100+ people every day and commit a genocide in Gaza. 100 people, most of them kids!

These are people with lives, families, hope and compassion. Just imagine if the Ukrainian war came even close to this. People are not numbers.

And these are WARCRIMES, the entire global system was built to stop such things from happening, letting the occupation do whatever it wants while making a joke of any and every concept of the "international rule based order" will come back to bite the west, hard.

If this is allowed to happen, what's different about Taiwan and Ukraine then? Let the stronger one win right?


As we are currently seeing in international relations, the "international rule based order" needs someone to impose order, otherwise it won't work. Putin called the bluff and he seems to win that hand.

So as in all the other areas of life, rules are for the small, puny ones, not for the big or well-connected ones. If you are big or have big supporters, might makes right. Morals and rules are then only relevant for propaganda, not for actual behavior


If that was the case the west bank would at peace, instead it's getting annexed with a pending ethnic cleaning plan.

They literally shot ambulances a few days ago on purpose:

Well Hamas’s massacre didn’t buy Palestine any good will/support, did it? I think the approval rate of Hamas was at historic levels after the massacre so that should tell you about the people in Gaza/Palestine(politically speaking of course)

Now Israel can do whatever they want because “nobody” is going to support what seamed like a terrorist state.

They chose violence and violence they get. It didn’t pay off. Not many people want to get involved into Palestine now. Not even the Arab states.


You mean universities of applied science, not schools, they call themselves that in English, but even that has different meanings in other countries. It's basically a more practical and school like university with smaller classes and more practical material.
