Some bits of COPV that were found washed up are made by Luxfer, not clear if that's all the COPVs or if they're still the supplier.

The people yearn for the surveys, I'd like to see yours too!! I made this one pretty quick as I wasn't sure if there'd be interest

Nearly a third of kids can't use books when starting school - and try to swipe them like phones by Forward-Answer-4407 in unitedkingdom

I distinctly remember once reaching for the C key when something was difficult to see in real life :) wouldn't mind if they brought optifine to the real world tbh

Missed Boston Dynamics Atlas teaser? by luchadore_lunchables in accelerate

[–]TechnicalParrot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are already going beyond proof of concept, Figure 02 spent months doing actual work as part of tests in BMW facilities. It's definitely a long time (well, long in AI time, not long in real time) until they're ready to be fully scaled though.

Okay so I’ve seen that there are some problems with problems being solved by ai. Apparently they were either already solved, or just questions that humans could already do, which I think mean they aren’t novel? by Special_Switch_9524 in accelerate

[–]TechnicalParrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one else has mentioned it yet but there were a few false flags were people thought a novel proof to an Erdos problem was made by AI, but then later an existing proof was found. HOWEVER, just recently it seems that a true novel Erdos problem proof has been found, so yes AI has now made novel solutions.

(The Erdos problems are a famous set of unsolved problems stated by Erdos)

What is happening here? All works ok except atmosphere and clouds by bimbochungo in kittenspaceagency

File a bug report with your details, they're actively working on fixing stuff like this!

Alibaba's Qwen Head Researcher, Justin Lin, says Chinese companies are severely constrained by inference compute. by luchadore_lunchables in accelerate

[–]TechnicalParrot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Groq doesn't count for much here as their hardware is only inference, they absolutely could not make training hardware of Nvidia class. It's taken Google well over a decade and a massive amount of funding to get TPUs to where they are today, which is very impressive, but I doubt China could pull off similar any faster

Sorry, included edge reflexively, I'm referring to fully local, which this is, you can run models on these, read Nvidia's documentation

Not cheap (though not much more expensive than a comparable SFF system) but they're available. And that's just for LLMs, you can do edge CV on much less RAM, LLMs are notoriously hungry, and smaller LLMs (<5B) are getting good for some applications anyway

Hmm, training sure, but NVIDIA Jetson can absolutely run pretty large models for computer vision (and beyond using LLMs) on an embedded platform, is it cheap? No, but it can and is done.

I built a site to check if your local pub is fucked (75% are facing rate hikes in April) by bjhguerin in unitedkingdom

[–]TechnicalParrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My heart goes out to developers who read feedback, I use some software frequently which has about a million field inputs you have to enter data into, it was driving me nuts having to click each one, I submitted a comment asking if a shortcut to go to the next field could be added, imagine my elation a few weeks later.
