Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Nvidia is pushing for openSource and open competition on the LLM-software stack a lot, because the alternative tend to be Google running google models on google hardware, OpenAI running OpenAI on OpenAI hardware and so on.
That why they are...
This is the thing that bugs most people I think. If you or I pulled even half of the shit these people did then we'd be in jail or be sued into oblivion. Whether that's all the digital shit of letting AI loose to hack companies or all the illegal...
I'm convinced these "rogue" AIs are all orchestrated by the AI companies to generate hype. "Our AI is so hyper-super awesome that we can't even control it" - Are you sure that's a good thing, bud?
At work, we have machines that are supposed to be in their own walled garden for testing. We don't connect those computers to the internet, so no matter how bad things go, nothing bad happens.
This is one of the reasons I'm against AI as much...
when the state subsidize something, who is paying for it is a fuzzy everyone as money is 100% fungible. They have a state-subsizide utility pricing framework, the actual price per kwh for some users here is not the only question (or an actual, a...
Data centers are not closed loop. The loops going to the actually gear might be but all the cooling towers are open to evaporate the heat and that's probably 99% of the water usage for any type of chiller system.
The funny thing is that I live in a place with excess power (we export it) and lots of water. Nobody is building data centres here that I've heard a whisper of. If you look at their public criteria they should be banging down our doors to build...
100%. Their ability to produce cheap semis at scale in a down market will truly be the disruption, not small scale in a gold rush. By 2030 the market might start really feeling the effects of this as capacity ramps.
Supply/demand is a force of nature. If their manufacturing adds to the supply, then they will have an effect on the price. Though I have a feeling that the biggest impact they can have right now is "the price isn't rising as fast as it would have...
The quality of their chips is lower than everyone else's, but as long as they can meet JEDEC spec, it's completely reasonable that someone is going to purchase them.
We have ZERO nuclear power plants physically being constructed in the US. There are plenty of anti-nuclear people still.
Average age of nuclear power plant in US: 44 years.
Average age of nuclear power plant in China: 11 years.
You can counter the impact of this by using a paper straw and by funneling money to a government-connected NGO in the form of "carbon offsets". What's a carbon offset, and how does it work? No one knows, but it ends climate change somehow.
Yep this is thing is going to end with us having controlled blackouts to run AI to track everything we do.
God the world would have been such a better place had we not had that wave of dumb people afraid of nuclear power plants back in the 80...
'Leased' data center. Wondering what the terms of the lease are?
OpenAI didn't qualify for credit since they haven't turned a profit which is why they are in talks with nVidia.
Recirculation money only backed by credit. Precarious situation indeed.
