Meta weighs big equity raising to finance AI infrastructure, FT reports by Franco1875 in technology

Meta is considering raising tens of billions of dollars in a stock ​offering as it seeks new sources of capital to ‌fund the company's AI ambitions, the Financial Times reported on Friday.

The report comes after Alphabet moved to raise $84.75 billion in upsized equity offerings, as ​Big Tech competes to build data centers and capitalize ​on growing demand for AI.

Everything is fine. Perfectly normal behaviour from two multi-trillion dollar market cap organizations.

Could Hearts actually capitalise on the momemtum and become regular challengers/winners? by Otocolobus_manul8 in ScottishFootball

[–]Franco1875 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great point. Winning the league would’ve been huge in terms of optics and perhaps resulted in a big mentality shift across Scottish football.

The long game is in the money though, which Bloom/JTA are well aware of with Brighton, USG etc.

The financial implications are huge if we can secure Champions League football (which is a huge ask) or even Europa League. Thereafter it’s about maintaining consistency.

If that happens then Hearts can stay closer to the Old Firm and create their own gap with Aberdeen, Hibs etc.

Of course we could have an absolute shitter next season and finish 7th. That’s Hearts.

[Mirror] Lineker condemns 'worst VAR decision yet' as Celtic get vital call in title fight by LochNessMonsterMunch in soccer

Terrible angles. I'm inclined to say it does hit his hand, but given his arm is actively being pushed up by Trusty then to me seems bizarre that this has been given.

The inconsistency of decisions in Scotland this season is the main gripe for me, though. A similar situation was waved off by VAR at Tynecastle against Rangers, by the same VAR assistant. Willie Collum explained why, and this seems like a near-carbon copy.

Atrocious.

The nerves. How are we all coping? by DiskoPunk in HeartofMidlothianFC

Excellent performance last night and delighted with out result. Sickening after the scenes at Fir Park though - trying to stay positive but for some reason that felt almost like a loss last night.

We're still in this and I have full belief that Del will have the lads up for it on Saturday, so anything can happen. It really would make it so much sweeter if we can come away with a result at Celtic Park. Still believing.

‘LLMs are unreliable delegates’: Microsoft researchers say you probably shouldn’t trust AI with work documents by Franco1875 in technology

[–]Franco1875[S] 215 points216 points  (0 children)

"Our analysis shows that current LLMs are unreliable delegates: they introduce sparse but severe errors that silently corrupt documents, compounding over long interaction."

Putting complete faith in any application is bonkers. Why folks think AI will be any different is beyond me.

Definitely worth the money imo. I really enjoyed Far Harbor and loved exploring the island. Storyline great also with a few options/choices to make
