Because it wasn’t php proper, it was an interpreter for PHP and Hack (their own language), and since 2019 they cut off PHP anyway

Also it’s mostly because the vast majority of those “70% of websites” that use PHP are wordpress installs, and wordpress never switched to the HHVM.

“Astroturfing” as if Lemmy is popular enough to have any of that yet

Issue is that local AI hog vram, are slow and small models. Or if you don’t have a compatible GPU, it uses the CPU which is even slower.

If AI is the future, I really hope it’s local, but with the equipment people have at home, local AIs are a non-starter.

IMO it’s enough to justify not shipping those AI features at all but I guess that’s where FF execs disagree.

Anything not to use Chinese model huh. Aren’t Mistral’s models woefully outmatched by literally everyone else in the AI field, by every metrics?

That makes it funnier ngl

True but he probably thought he had big enough of a name to lead his own department as he pleased

AI traning on AI producing content is called poisoning and can be devastating even if a tiny part of the training set is poison. Stripping this mark makes AI companies unable to detect it as training poison, so it might make it posible for poisoning to occur on a larger scale, which is kind of inevitable as they’re scraping literally all they can & AI generated content is now inevitably part of the training pool

If the code is GPL they’ll generally be scared to use it. I agree with you for non-copyleft open source though

Except the US economy is already dead, and only AI is keeping it “alive”. If AI companies die, the US economy enters a true recession, and rich people would lose a lot of money

China literally just put out an open weight model that verifiably beats the unverified Mythos claims in some scenarios; the reality is that they most likely want the US to “win” the AI race (which they cant, closed models will always be beat by open weight, which is what China is doing)

They’re already on shaky finances, having an export ban would just pop the bubble sooner (and what remains of the US economy along with it)

They are scaling up but as with other things they will most likely scale to their inner market first, and then I doubt they’ll subsidize a price depreciation to help westerners when they can get the profits for themselves

But did you think about China Bad™?

“Fuck the child” safety act

It would be so fun if Apple and Google decided they’d rather not have business in England anymore

Not really, because when an employee fails their task it’s the employee’s responsibility, and if it’s catastrophic enough it can lead to firings or lawsuits. But as soon as it’s a chatbot, the liability fully rests on the company. How long will insurance protect those companies too?

The issue is that those bots are worse in completely unpredictable ways. Like when some airline passengers were given incorrect information which led to the airline being sued and having to pay the made up offer as well as damages & tribunal fees. The bots might be unhelpful, but to the disservice of the company’s financials

I don’t know of examples of dual licensing (maybe redhat?) But Wordpress is a GPL project that still has an industry around it

It wasn’t really Singapore-based; the Chinese company relocated to Singapore to circumvent the Chinese regulations on sales to the US, that’s why they put a stop to it

Even in the EU there isn’t really an alt store ecosystem apart from the epic game store
