To be fair to him, his role isn't about European independence. That's the EU's job. Currently NATOs defense capability is built around the US, the organizer and founding member. It makes no sense for him to not consider the US because that would defeat the purpose of NATO.

Doesn't really matter what he says if you want EU independence.

Indeed! Seems like people have forgotten that AI is not just LLMs.

Honestly, I misread your post to be self defense.

Sadly, it might not help you. A wrong look in their direction can mean being shot in the face.

It's not racist. It's just what Chinese people started meming Xi years ago and the CCP government overreacted. Simple as that. Its what happens when an authoritarian leader gets flustered about their image.

You'd have to go looking for a specific model but https://huggingface.co/ has a model for nearly anything you'd want. You just have to setup your local machine to run it.

I'm not sure what you mean by ideal. Like, run any model you ever wanted? Probably the latest ai nvidia chips.

But you can get away with a lot less for smaller models. I have the amd mid range card from 4 years ago (i forget the model at the top of my head) and can run text, 8B sized, models without issue.

I was excited until I started trying to find their sources and they ended up just self referencing their own articles. Kind of an odd practice to not directly link their studies. Makes me not trust them. Glad to see you linking some in the comments though.

Not if you run it locally!

Big fan of age of decadence! I've been slowly going through colony ship, too. Glad they're on a new project!

There needs to be less reliance on giant corporations. Those stinkers generally become evil as a rule. More competition is good for everyone.

 

Thinking about getting one, what did y'all think? Looking at the Zeros.

 

Does anyone think that there'll ever be a simple EV car produced for market without all the extra junk found in most electric cars? Why or why not?

I don't see the need for the infotainment dash, personal data tracking, self-driving, lack of physical buttons, and lack or reparability.

Wouldn't it be nice to have an EV that is probably cheaper without all that forced extra stuff? Can't we just have a simple EV that has an electric engine that is reliable, cheaper, and doesn't have a need for constant software updates? Maybe you can work on it in your garage for the most part for simple maintenance.

I'd really like to have an EV one day but seems like they are all super expensive, have no sense of ownership like typical cars, are constantly tracking you, and are trying to shove extra features down your throat.
