Anthropic pledges to try harder to keep models under control, asks partners to chip in

b1k3rdude

"asks partners to chip in"....

Er...how about NO. Anthropic made thier bed, so they can suffer the consequences of their actions your actions.

Be a hater all you want, AI's here to stay

b1k3rdude

Regarding the sentence - "First, it's going to hit junior employees, like entry-level programmers. Who wants to pay money to someone fresh out of college to do work that Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, or GitHub Copilot can do? No one,"

Er no. Firstly its already been shown that ML generated code is $lop and secondly the cost of the tokens have ALREADY exceeded the cost of the junior engineer, rendering the whole fcuking ML/LLM problem looking for a solution situation dead on arrival.

Following on from what @Tim Chuma said, find other topics to talk about. The majority of your readers have zero fcuks to give about anything Ai related, and why would they when all anyone has to do is look at the STATE of the world economy.

Cerebras CS-4 rack systems juice their dinner-plate-sized AI chips for every last drop of AI perf

Oi Thomas Seifert, go fck yourself. And not if the bubble bursts first, you myopic arrogant prick.

Microsoft says 8 GB of RAM should be enough for anyone running Windows 11

b1k3rdude

Sure ok, the OS itself, but you wont be fcking running anything else at the same time for very long before the shit-arse memory management sucks-up what little ram you have left.

But the above aside, WHY... are they suddenly making this statement now.. not suspect at ALL.....

AI bills are baffling the C-suite after shift to usage-based pricing

I have absolutely zero shits to give for the rubes and dupes. This bloody bubble can't burst soon enough.

Allstate Insurance quits Broadcom, alleges vengeful license audit on the way out

b1k3rdude

Im finding it hard to give a shit. Allstate and Broadcom are just as willfully belligerent and anti-consumer as each other. Both of them deserve what ever pain is coming thier way.

Everyone hates frontier AI labs, says Palantir boss

b1k3rdude

Ah yes, the belligerent meat sack dains to open his mouth hole.

LibreOffice brands Euro-Office a 'de facto ally' of Microsoft's lock-in strategy

Chrome silently installs a 4 GB local LLM on your computer

Re: Hoist by their own petard

Ah yes, fuck that app and fuck google. As far as the gov are concerned I do not have a smart phone, they can fuck off and do one.

b1k3rdude

Seriously, what the actual fuck.

Minister gives Palantir's NHS platform a clean bill of health

b1k3rdude

Why do these meat sacks continue to lie. Fucking Labour, different colour but just as bad if not worse then the Tories. No wonder everyone if falling for Reforms lies they are sick and tired of the two-party bull$hit. Don't forget 'the great deceiver', Farage is pro brexit. That shit show has been widely excepted as a bad thing for the country.

The public doesn't want a demonstrably evil & malignant US corporation who's track record make it one of the most untrustworthy and hated companies on the planet, with thier sticky fingers all over our patient data. And doctors, nurses and other NHS staff that have the displeasure of using it, DON'T fucking want it either.

Fuck off already.

Met Police's Palantir deployment has its own officers watching their backs

b1k3rdude

" A spokesperson said Khan nonetheless has concerns about "using public money to support firms who act contrary to London's values." - oh he does now does he? yet has no problems allowing the met us the same money to fck over the lives of Londoners. What a hypocritical khunt. As they say in Landan, "Khan needs to fck off and do one"

b1k3rdude

"Courageous colleagues across London do not deserve to be treated with this level of suspicion by their Big Brother Bosses," said Matt Cane, the federation's general secretary, in a statement."

So the police dont like being spied on, but are fucking happy to do it to the general public... What a complete and utter self serving hypocritical and patronizing cnut of a statement, Oi Matt, how about you fuck off and do one mate.

Qualcomm teases ‘dedicated CPU for agentic experiences’ and ‘agentic smartphones’

b1k3rdude

Trump to UK: Stop taxing our big beautiful tech corps or face tariff tsunami

Microsoft locks out VeraCrypt and WireGuard devs, blames verification process

b1k3rdude

Lying cnuts.

"We worked hard to make sure partners understood this was coming, from emails, banners, reminders, said Davuluri." - I call BULLSHIT, ti angers me no end when a company flat out blatantly lies in the face of evidence that demonstrated they did NONE of this - cnuts!

"And we know that sometimes things still get missed. We're taking this as an opportunity to review how we communicate changes like this and make sure we're doing it better."

Pathetic attempt at saying they didnt communicated AT ALL, fucking wankers.

Google is to journalism what Vikings were to monks. Now their man will run the BBC

b1k3rdude

Well I suppose its fitting that a corrupt institution is managed by someone who has worked for one of the biggest corrupt corps in the world.

AMD's new desktop CPU oozes cache out of all 16 cores

b1k3rdude

if Intel came add some longevity to the next platform and add a bunch more cache, I might considering migrating back to them. The productivity perf is amazing, but Im a gamer so they need to catch up and match the 10800X3D.

AMD are clearly taking the piss on prices just as intel did, and so need taking down a peg or too.

UK police force presses pause on live facial recognition after study finds racial bias

Now if we can get the 2 largest forces (Met, Gmb) to do the same, then maybe the other would follow suit.

Country that put backdoors into Cisco routers to spy on world bans foreign routers

Apple's budget-friendly MacBook Neo is bursting with color and compromise

b1k3rdude

Re: Never look a gift-horse in the mouth

"The battery is shot ($500 to replace?)" NO, have you even looked online like..? a brand new battery is still going to be far cheaper than the neo PO$.

b1k3rdude

Ah another pro-apple fluff piece...

This POS only has 8GB of ram and a 256gb SSD, this was never enough on the original macbook air in 2008, so Why the fck do Apple its fcking acceptable now...???!!! And there is no 16GB version, but as fcking usual they want silly money for the bigger SSD, another £100 for 512Gb version.

So doing a 30 second look on dell.com/uk/ they have a budget inspire with 16GB/512GB for £549 - https://www.dell.com/en-uk/shop/laptops-2-in-1-pcs/dell-14-laptop/spd/dell-dc14250-laptop/bndc1425009sb

So no Apple, as a consumer and enterprise user, hard fcking pass.

AI doctor's assistant is easily swayed to change prescriptions, give bad medical advice

b1k3rdude

hard fcking pass, I would absolutely not consent to my doctor using Ai tools anywhere near my patient records.

HR may have to cajole and soothe reluctant employees to get them to use AI

b1k3rdude

I would not work for a company that uses Ai and if I found out my personal/confidential info was being exposed to Ai without my consent, there would be hell to pay.

BBC bumps telly tax to £180 as Netflix lurks with cheaper tiers

b1k3rdude

214 comments, most of which are negative clearly show what most people think of the government controlled service and all the criminals they have employed and that continue to be found to this day. I haven't watched regular TV, live or otherwise, since the analogue transmitter was turned off in my area. Most of terrestrial UK tv is the worst kind of garbage, with ITV being the worst. The only thing the BBC does that is of any qaulity or calibre are the documentaries, but you can buy these for cheap on dvd/bluray after a year or so. Doctor Who used to be good, but has been slowly getting worse. The final nail in the coffin was facilitated by Davis and his virtue signalling echo chamber b$, pathetic story telling. And why even Disney walked away from it. There are rumor's that the bbc are going to "try" to say anyone watching YT or any programmes from outside the UK has to pay the fee, but that is delusional, and to which frankly I say, they fck right off and do one.
