We really really need a high quality coding assistant that runs in 4GB of VRAM. It doesn't have to be the best, and it doesn't need to be able to handle more than say 2 languages at a time, like C and whatever. That would open up the field to a whole new demographic of potential coders, which is what the industry desperately needs right now.
...because right now no one is hiring _anybody_ who isn't a super duper senior 100x dev. The whole world of tech is facing a generational collapse. We need to pull a rabbit out of hat soon or we're all screwed.
You can't encode high quality coding practices and conversation skills in 4GB model. Information compression is too lossy.
No one is hiring because IT hit peak of usefulness. I delete more apps from my phone than install every month. I don't need more services. My rusty car is enough, no need for more touch interfaces.
This. I just want Freeform usable on iPadOS again.
Since 26 upgrade it is unusable with 100+ notes. It looks like they merged iOS variant with Macos one. Constant freezes, random unsaves, device gets boiling hot. No fix with factory reset. I love the HW but SW needs more love.
It’s going to be crazy with the explanation they come up with why the us public has to pay to bail out AI for national security.
In a way, it’s true if china has superior AI then it’s dominance over US will materialize. But it’s not hard to see how this scenario is being used to essential lie and scam into trillions of debt.
Its interesting how the cutthroat space of big tech has manifested into an incidious hyper capitalist system where disrupting a system is it’s primary function. The system in this case is world order and western governments
