LocalLLaMA@poweruser.forum•Hugging Face Removes Singing AI Models of Xi Jinping But Not of BidenEnglish
1·2 years agoYou see that’s the interesting thing about China, and in fact literally all “conspiracy theories” around the world.
People think of conspiring as sat around a table and talked, or had a phone call together, or e-mailed with each other, etc. That a group of people agreed on something together, and then went forward with their evil plots.
But in reality, almost everything that happens like this is because the expectation is assumed.
ie: China doesn’t need to say anything to HuggingFace to get them to do this. HuggingFace already knows what China expects of them. They don’t need to ask. They don’t need to be told. They already know.

1·2 years agoAs an aside, these huge HDD sizes are cool and all, but it’s soooooo much data to trust on one or two drives, it’s wild

LocalLLaMA@poweruser.forum•Details emerge of surprise board coup that ousted CEO Sam Altman at OpenAI (Microsoft CEO Nadella "furious"; OpenAI President and three senior researchers resign)English
1·2 years agoMy guess is the powers that be wanted a yes-man in charge, and Sam wasn’t going to just agree, so he needed to go so they could get someone they can control in.

LocalLLaMA@poweruser.forum•Sam Altman out as CEO of OpenAI. Mira Murati is the new CEO.English
1·2 years agoMy guess is the powers that be wanted “their guy” in that will do whatever is told of them.
Sam was probably too problematic at this point.

BMW@gearhead.town•I bought these same rims, just wondering if they have a name or model number or something?English
1·2 years agoGot a crazy deal on a set of these with Pirelli winters that have at least 80% tread left for $300 canadian… Just the rubber alone is more than that for 1 tire new. wtf.
Anyway, wondering if they have a model number or something?
They really do a good job of adding their own personalities and making things fun, I feel like that’s missing when I have to watch other team’s games.
Also not being super homers is a major bonus

Thanks so much. Waiting for a callback from the first place. I’ve been there a few times and they really seem like quality people, just an unfortunate mistake I think.
