Oh I agree, but the speeds in the article are much faster than any current volatile memory. So it could theoretically be used to vastly expand memory availability for accelerators/TPUs/etc for their onboard memory.
I guess if they can replicate these speeds in volatile memory and increase the buses to handle it, then they’d be really onto something here for numerous use cases.
No, I think they’re saying they’re not interested in ML/AI. They want this super fast memory available for regular servers for other use cases.
Does flash, like solid state drives, have the same lifespan in terms of write? If so, it feels like this would most certainly not be useful for AI, as that use case would involve doing billions/trillions of writes in a very short span of time.
Edit: It looks like they do: https://www.enterprisestorageforum.com/hardware/life-expectancy-of-a-drive/
Manufacturers say to expect flash drives to last about 10 years based on average use. But life expectancy can be cut short by defects in the manufacturing process, the quality of the materials used, and how the drive connects to the device, leading to wide variations. Depending on the manufacturing quality, flash memory can withstand between 10,000 and a million [program/erase] cycles.
Agreed, it’s an awful headline
though some suspiciously are.
Some? A huge portion are. Numerous others have replicated it with visual proof. I agree that the news sites should be verifying it, but NYT did and also documented their proof.
AI is useful for basic, mundane tasks and that’s about it. Trying to force it to be some sort of Uber search engine is such a bad idea.
I thought that Teslas have always had QA problems? It’s definitely much, much worse in the last couple of years, the their cars were never highly regarded for being super reliable. Hell, I remember multiple stories of people’s Teslas dying because they drove in the rain even ~5 years ago.
Yes, because Tesla is such a snowflake mom and pop’s operation. Such tragedy a soulless corporation that treats its employees like trash is losing value to its very wealthy major investors.
Kitty ghillie suit
It’s damn near the very bottom lol, so I forgive myself for missing that. When I skim something for a product, I’m looking at the tech specs/BLUF message, not digging thru the entire page of text. Anyway, glad it’s all sorted out.
Thanks for the info! Was actually thinking my current watch’s battery was beginning to hold a charge less and less lately, so definitely keeping these in mind.
I did indeed skim pretty fast, but it doesn’t say that, it just says from 7 days to 30:
Before anyone gets excited:
The Court of Appeals did, however, acknowledge that works made by a person with the assistance of AI can qualify for copyright, while also noting that no legal standard defines the amount of human participation necessary for such recognition.
I think the primary motivation for this guy to doggedly pursue this case, is so he could claim ownership over anything this/future model(s) produced, regardless of his involvement. It would’ve set a bad precedent in a lot of ways.
Anyway, people/corpos can still click a button to generate shit and claim copyright since the court acknowledges that any miniscule amount of human involvement qualifies.
Does this interface with your phone at all? Tried skimming thru their website but the fact it doesn’t list Bluetooth in the specs leaves me confused why you’d spend this much money on a quasi-smartwatch that doesn’t have that capability.
It’s actually illegal in some US states, too. Right to repair at the federal level is still being fought, iirc. There was a lot of progress being made around 2023, but got stalled. Hopefully the current oligarchy administration doesn’t end up butchering that movement, but I’m not very optimistic.
You’re out of touch, my man. 90% of the population aren’t paying attention to what rich people are saying and doing. Pretending that everyone that bought a Tesla 5+ years ago knew that he was an insane asshole all along and are now feigning ignorance of that fact to save face doesn’t make it reality. But whatever, keep getting worked up over something that doesn’t really matter at present.
And every mobile carrier I’ve seen in the US in my region (the Midwest) has ridiculously low data caps on 4G/5G internet service.
But on that note, yes, as you move farther from civilization, you get less civilization. That’s just a fact of the economic system those farmers just LOVE.
That doesn’t change the fact that virtually every facet of our lives requires internet connectivity. Paying bills, coordinating and conducting business, education, etc. Look, I’m not saying they should expect fiber connectivity to their rural homes. But satellites offer another option for Internet access and acting like it’s completely irrational for these folks to have it is ridiculous.
Oh for sure, but with CBII, malicious ads can’t exploit a vulnerability and infect your local system.
Not everyone can live in urban areas. This is such a stupid take. Fuck farmers and other folks who’s livelihood relies on being further out from living centers, I guess.
It’s actually been an increasingly common slang over the last year or so. Think the popularity of it picked up after they started sending troops to Ukraine.
