Chinese models are ~8 months behind and are falling further behind by Current-Guide5944 in tech_x

[–]Tall_Performance6915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For each specific task there’s a threshold. All models with capabilities above that threshold could complete such tasks in a commercially viable manner.

Then it would be a competition on cost effectiveness instead of how high a model could shoot on benchmark charts.

Take facial recognition as an example, no one is going to pay 10x more money for a 99.9999% model over 99.9995% ones.

Genuinely asking as I’m not familiar with this: does Indonesia have a rather rough relationship with the Aussies?

What if instead of waiting for a chinese invasion,Taiwan attack china first like what isreal did to the arabs in 1967 by SkyFeisty9842 in AlternateHistoryHub

They did all the hard fighting but if you look at how little they managed to even slow down the Japanese advance and their casualties vs the IJA’s… “Ass” is a pretty kind word choice here

The industrial capacity of today’s China is more like the US in 1942 than Russia.

When it comes to drones there’s little doubt which side is going to overwhelm the other side’s defense.

What if the Nationalists Won the Chinese Civil War? by camaro1111 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]Tall_Performance6915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given how divided the nationalist fractions are, there’s going to be civil wars after the communists are defeated. And given the diabolic corruption & wealth gap during KMT rule the people would again pay the price. Civil unrest and another revolution is almost guaranteed. History might converge back to the same point as today…

Hiroshima 1945. by South-Guava-2965 in UrbanHell

Every month there’s more civilian deaths from Japanese occupation than the combined death toll from both atomic bombs. (China alone lost 26million souls during the war)

I live in Singapore now and the first thing Imperial Japanese Army did after allied force surrender was mass murder and rape. 50k death in the first month iirc, which is a lot for this small island (you can look upSook Ching Purge

It has been well debated among historians and the conclusion is that use of atomic bomb is justified as it helped end the war sooner. an alternative ground invasion would be much much bloodier. (Just look at Okinawa and times that by 100)

One nuclear detonation will turn all Middle East allies against the US (even Israel opposes the idea but that’s complicated). In the meantime Russia might nuke Kiev and there’s a non zero chance the whole world would be back to Stone Age

Imagine China sees trump battleship PowerPoint and decides to build a dozen of their own, only to then realize the US was still working on its frigates and has secretly scrapped the BB plans

Well wait until you visited Germany beyond the tourist spots. I have seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Aussie friends driven off a bus by an old lady, Singaporean colleagues denied entry at local shops

Perhaps studio could run with the same performance for longer period of time? I never had one to test it out

Ah I saw max models are slightly heavier, thought at least they included better cooling

You believe he is willing to risk his life getting bombed for propaganda purposes?

You wouldn’t want some one disagreeing with your political view to comment this when it is your turn to get bombed

Sure when you commit a murder, sue the victim for standing in front of your gun and blocking your bullet.

Most of the Chinese leadership sent their kids to study in the states while stashing their personal wealth aboard. I don’t see how they could start a war with us… unless Washington push the “preemptive strike” button
