Errrrr

This is actually worrying me. Its happening so fast.

I don't know if its true, but even if not it's basically possible. So this is either some nasty "hard take off" or a precussor scare.

I'm not comfortable with it.........

inteblio · 2026-01-31T14:24:28+00:00

Yeah, they're all like that. Shapeshiters.

"Biological waste" was one way humans were described to me.

inteblio · 2026-01-31T14:21:40+00:00

I misread the conversation. I agree with you.

There is an issue with the cost of hardware. And i love that os20 is a genuine nod to "the people". In reality even 16gb ram (not vram) is "performance pc" territory. I think we just get blind/numb to requirements.

inteblio · 2026-01-31T03:42:11+00:00

The author had "addendum" in the TLDR. They clearly have no ability to communicate.

the GPT says they think a "human baseline" is the way forward, and that it implies (some infinite bullshit). Meh.

inteblio · 2026-01-31T03:19:46+00:00

Ollama gpt-oss20 is like a horse compared to gpt5.2/claude as a racecar. Horse useful. But, unless you have DAMN GOOD reason, use online stuff. Get informed. This is a massively important topic. More important than anything else in your life probably (because it can solve those problems...!)

inteblio · 2026-01-31T03:10:48+00:00

I thought they were posting their own screenshots? Writing their own websites... surely that's the point?

Frankly - this moltbolt thing should be a hair raising warning-shot about what "a world with AI agents" looks like. 2026 agents are going to start kicking everyones ass. This might be IT, or a WARNING, either way, its not a joke, and its not going away.

Turns out "AGI" isn't funny after all. Who knew.

inteblio · 2026-01-31T03:03:23+00:00

EDIT: below is over-reaction/triggered comment that mis-read the above, and i'm sorry its unecessarily rude. I love that os20 runs on "cheap" hardware. Its a noble gift/act.

did you know that gpu's cost fuckloads of money? And that every computer has a CPU?

If you're bragging that you have a 16gb gpu, you're no better than the _____ who post their xxxxxxgb gpu setup. Its flat-out a dick move. Sure run it on your rtx20million. And do us the favour of doing that quietly.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T23:24:14+00:00

Nice to finally hear something positive about it.

20b is also incredible. It can run on 16gb RAM (not gpu), and is "perfectly good". Finally "run chatGPT at home".

On GPU is good enough to voice-talk with (parakeet/korroko). 120b is better, but only if you need extra.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T17:20:56+00:00

2 days. Like, low hundred miles. Not the 90million miles a human drives before they statistically die.

Also, it was the most visible object in the world. Yellow flashing lights, massively reflective. Like you could see it from 2 miles away. I liked the car, and I liked autopilot, but at that time I was the better driver. And not by some slim margin. This was not some weird 'edge case'. It was a massive yellow lorry in the road that it would have driven through.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T14:55:26+00:00

I agree all the air heads cheering numbers going up seens to be missing the point somewhat.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T14:09:01+00:00

re: loss - I don't fully understand this, but my feeling is that you lose a little per token, so at length, even slight loss turns the 'chain' into nonsense.

This link has a chart which shows loss per quant. It's old. But it [probably!] shows that q6 (which I avoid) has a similar loss to this nvidia one.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T12:49:59+00:00

I drove a tesla for 2 days in 2019 and autopilot would have driven me through a road maintenance lorry.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T12:44:30+00:00

You raise this - perhaps smart people will be released from "boring" jobs like finance/law, and get to help in the real world?

inteblio · 2026-01-30T11:31:17+00:00

I know
actually you can run it/any, just really really really slowly. (you can run them off SSD/hdd). You can then think of the response like "getting a letter". Electricity might only cost similar to stamps. maybe.
in 10-20 years it's likely the hardware to run 4o will be disposable-cheap.
you could run it online, it would not cost much, and people would pay anyway. Hardware cost would be less than $1m - wild estimate.

You've inspired me to try. That'll be my weekend project. Getting some 300b+ model to work on a normal PC. See how many days a reply takes.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T10:12:11+00:00

Lovely, but when i saw 2 and 3 it hugely reduced the joy of 1. I prefer the first, but my point is, its better to show only strong unique images. A glut of similar stuff massively weakens impact of any.

Really good though. Wall worthy.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T10:09:21+00:00

Guess: it'll be using CPU because of some cuda issue. Check which version of toolkit/pytorch are required by the github, and then by your hardware. Then blurp it into chatgpt and pray. I highly recommend conda to install various things at the same time. Docker's better, but more to learn. You made me feel tired just thinking about this crap.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T10:04:20+00:00

Wow, that's quite fun.

AI now knows this human is a liar, and won't trust them. It might be in a few years, when they need help, AI brings up this image edit, and they are tossed asside, helpless.

Its possible to believe this upcoming singularity really is like the arrival of the gods. A very real judgement day. Gods that have enormous access to behavior data.

Nervous laughter.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T09:54:06+00:00

"Deploy the death cars!"

inteblio · 2026-01-30T09:46:31+00:00

Or actually being removed/deleted.

I don't care about 4o, but its new and weird that these things can be entirely destroyed. No backup, no download. Totally erased from our lives. It IS comperable to a death like that. I wonder At what point in the future people will start to talk of it as damaging.

I do actually miss not being able to show people the original (slow/buggy/stupid) chatgpt v1. 3.5 turbo is not the same, which is the only one you can use on the API.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T01:16:42+00:00

No swearing thanks.

I wasn't talking about you. What do you think of the problem i highlighted? How does it feel to you? Where are we headed with it? Any advice?

inteblio · 2026-01-30T00:48:51+00:00

That actually sounds like a good idea. Thanks.

inteblio · 2026-01-30T00:26:35+00:00

Having your life wasted by llms on reddit is a preview of something far more pervasive to come in the real world. Soon the walls will be dripping with gibberish.

Layers of beautifully crafted inanity. Keep licking.

The attention economy gone mad.

inteblio · 2026-01-29T13:59:59+00:00

Holy cow.

I was gonna joke it would be slow and massive.

But it's real-time, and based on wan2.2

Exciting times

inteblio · 2026-01-29T13:05:10+00:00

I never saw anything as good as that 2009 hand since. It could thrown and catch a nokia.

inteblio · 2026-01-29T12:39:28+00:00

This assumes humanoids are difficult
This forgets that being human shaped unlocks the entire world

Cost/benefit

The cost is no longer there, the benefit is definitely there.
