31 years after Microsoft Bob, IBM releases it's own IBM Bob. :)

I thought MS killed that name forever.

It's like they're begging for failure

Call it PC Bob

Better than IBM Tay.

So "Europe's Leading AI Model" is just a modified Chinese model which does worse than the better Chinese models?

It seems Europe is many years behind in tech. Maybe for AI models they are just a decade behind, but as far as producing hardware capable to run SOA models they lag tens of years.

What about producing hardware capable of producing hardware capable of SOA models?

>I don't want my model to reflect the views of American oligarchs or Chinese cadres. I want European values of enlightenment and humanitarianism to be the default.

I don't want AI models to reflect any kind of values whatsoever. I have my own views - thank you - and I don't need other throwing their values in my face using AI.

I prefer AI models not being trained ideologically.

Unfortunately, AI models are trained on humans, and so they're getting that whether we like it or not. I'd also prefer it to be neutral, but I don't think it's possible and the second-best option is to have models from multiple regions and balance things out.

There is no unideological. There is no view from nowhere, what you perceive as unideological is precisely the reflection of your own ideology. The "unbiased" is just whatever matches your own bias.

To quote Zizek:

> I already am eating from the trashcan all the time. The name of this trashcan is ideology. The material force of ideology - makes me not see what I'm effectively eating. It's not only our reality which enslaves us. The tragedy of our predicament - when we are within ideology, is that - when we think that we escape it into our dreams - at that point we are within ideology.

What about the problems negative externalities from unchecked crowding and bus culture? Like overcrowding, sky high prices for housing, very high prices for everything, broken infrastructure that is to expensive to fix and over capacity?

>so that the people who live in them aren't unfairly pushing costs onto other people in society

>The money generated from these endeavours could be used to fund the development of mass public transportation infrastructure in more, dense, sustainable areas

So you still want to tax some people to subsidize other people. Why?

In Germany they penalize using cars by taxing cars and fuels. They reward using public transport by subsidizing it. Car owners pay so public transit users get cheaper rides.

So people are using public transit in Germany not because they love to but because they are forced to.

And the system is far from perfect, Germans are complaining because public transportation is having a lot of delays. You can't reach every point you need, you have to wait and some times public transportation is dirty and filled with dirty, rude, violent people, drug addicts and drunks. Not a lovely way to travel.

And there are also other parts for reducing the pollution like DPF, EGR and Adblue systems.

Unfortunately they also reduce the reliability.

Just a little taste of the European bureaucracy.

The whole reality is much worse.

It's nice seeing Nim has some activity.

One or two more releases and they will reach Fable level.

by then there will be Fable 5.21, again 5% ahead of every other SotA while still only 500% the size.

There’s no way Anthropic can keep jacking up the prices like this for every marginally better model. I think even tokenmaxxing companies are going to soon balk at $50/million output tokens.

Anthropic wants to ban the alternatives through regulation and ideally provide differential access with differential pricing.

Ah, yes, Anthropic, the company who just got regulated and has an ongoing open dispute with the government, wants to regulate other companies with their copious political capital.
