We’re looking at this from opposite sides of the same coin.

The NN graph is written at a high-level in Python using frameworks (PyTorch, Tensorflow—man I really don’t miss TF after jumping to Torch :) ).

But the calculations don’t execute on the Python kernel—sure you could write it to do so but it would be sloooow. The actual network of calculations happen within the framework internals; C++. Then depending on the hardware you want to run it on, you go down to BLAS or CUDA, etc. all of which are written in low-level languages like Fortran or C.

Numpy fits into places all throughout this stack and its performant pieces are mostly implemented in C.

Any way you slice it: the post I was responding to is to argue that AI IS CODE. No two ways about that. It’s also the weights and biases and activations of the models that have been trained.

Neural nets are typically written in C; then frameworks abstract on top of that (like Torch, or Tensorflow) providing higher-level APIs to languages like (most commonly) Python, or JavaScript.

There are some other nn implementations in Rust, C++, etc.

You seem like a good person and I wish Lemmy had a way to follow people. Need more positivity in the feed. Keep it up, friend.

I don’t care. Will always be Nome. Fuck Pedo Stallman’s preference.

I feel similar but with a 16-17” 3K resolution. Honestly it’s the biggest thing keeping me away from a Linux laptop and in my ancient 15” MacBook Pro.

Just like our favorite DC supervillain, Bane.

Wet Cougar in the bathtub.

Oh they fucking know. Say it with me:

Wealth Inequity

I don’t think anyone really hates Jo Millionaire. Jo, the master electrician that lives down the street and employs 5-10 electricians from apprentice to employee-master is a millionaire and contributes positively to their local community. Creating jobs through helping people with their electrical projects, spending in the local economy, etc. And that’s a realistic goal for their apprentices to aspire and work towards.

Unfortunately that’s who republican voters think they’re voting to support.

But they’ve been duped; they’re actually voting to support the Billionaire Aristocrats of the world who pull up the ladder behind them through monetary influence of politics and not paying a damn dime on their ‘income’ (because they’re “borrowing against” their unfathomable hoard).

“They” know why the voters and disenfranchised and that’s their fucking plan—because it keeps them employed and wining and dining fancy with their Aristocrat puppet masters.

Pretty sure my Calc2 prof pulled this trick on us sometime in the solids of revolution unit. Started deriving something on the board, just another cylinder ok, but wtf are you calling the radius ‘z’?

Costco’s soft-serve is way better than McD’s and actually is cheap.

I know more humans that fit that description than language models.

No. Strictly and technically speaking, LLMs absolutely fall under the category of AI. You’re thinking of AGI, which is a subset of AI, and which LLMs will be a necessary but insufficient component of.

I’m an AI Engineer; I’ve taken to, in my circles, calling AI “Algorithmic Intelligence” rather than “Artificial Intelligence.” It’s far more fitting term for what is happening. But until the Yanns and Ngs and Hintons of the field start calling it that, we’re stuck with it.

Bullshit. Developers never make mistakes. N.E.V.R.

You mean working half-time? The material practically writes itself as soon as Donnie T. gets involved.

My first thought was not this kind of transformer, but rather this kind and I was wondering how tf you make a costume out of it.

As if they care what the plebes think.

He is a political entertainer/whore and Putin’s useful gimp. What was anyone really expecting from this guy? A dissertation on the causes of economic injustice and inequity?

Weekend at Donny’s 3.
