I’ve been saying this for a while to people. I think the long term use case for LLMs is the semantic human interface device.

Siri,Alexa, even google home?(whatever they called it), they all swung and missed at this. However evening able to provide commands unclearly to a computer and get the intended result would be a huge win.

I know the big llm inference can do a lot more but the cost is high for systems with that ability to reason however small, lightweight llms are actually very good for command and control.

This where my current homeland projects are focused.

I met Bob Camp once in Atlantic city. He told me very many strange things about his life as an animator but when I told him that those close-ups haunt me in my dreams he simply laughed and said "Yeah! We call 'em Gross-Ups! It was our favorite thing to make!"

Fucking Curtis Yarvin everytime... Jfkm

You are right. The lack of true completely functional alternatives is part of the sad state of mobile OS decay we are suffering. I had already abandoned Nova launcher for Lawnchair last year. This entire android ecosystem is just less functional everyday and it's Google's design. I don't have a good solution and it's quite frankly embarrassing to be defending this OS as a solution anymore. The team over at GrapheneOS seems to be the one of the only teams who haven't lost the plot. The team over at FUTO has a good thing going (I use the FUTO keyboard). I will continue to support them and their endeavors, I just can't buy yet another pixel.

The solution is moving to a cabin in the woods with a Nokia 8210. I'm not read for that (yet).

Looking forward to seeing what comes next for them. Nice platform.

I think about this every god damn day

Tldr; This article reads like my own particular preferred brand of copium.

Nvidia Tried this with BFG (Big Format gaming Displays) but most of them never made it to market. I think Microcenter carried one model and it was expensive for what you were getting. Back in those days having the nvidia gsync sticker easily double the price of any monitor and making it a ~60" tv wasn't an exception.

I can't be the only person who wants display port but I fear this must have to do with the HDMI Forum being the current cable standard mafia and supporting anything other than HDMI is like giving up an inch of the total control they have over the TV industry. They (Sony, Phillips, Toshiba, Hitachi, etc) are effectively colluding against TV buyers and controlling the market and eliminating competition.

With that being said, the USB-C port on these TVs has been around and Ive seen other reviewers show that the high sense implementation is not the panacea (yet) that gamers desire. Its more for like, plugging in your Macbook to your TV.

Still, if this TV came out tomorrow and Wendell from Level1techs said "your Linux pc can get 4k, 120hz, HDR FreeSync out of this" and showed it working, $3500 dollars wouldn't stop me from buying it.

The demos run on the back of two 5090 GPUs... At what point do we even acknowledge I shouldnt need to be using nearly 2kW of power on a gaming PC on a dedicated circuit in my home? Simply diminishing returns at a certain point and nvidia is bringing us way past that point into very unreasonable territory.

Is it cool they could do it at all?... I GUESS?! But they've definitely lost the plot here.

Shit I guess I wont be paying them twice to play the same game on ps5 and then PC a year later.
