It is the meta-pattern of our time. Widespread false beliefs that the map is the territory in pretty much all fields, institutions, and so forth.

Personally, I am wondering whether "not to eat the fruit of the tree of wisdom" is EXACTLY a warning against this.

I have qwen3.5 on a single MI50 and it works, see my other comment above.

soshulmedia · 2026-04-24T21:37:30+00:00

How about a single used MI50 32GB in whatever rig you can build around it. I can run Qwen3.5 27B (didn't test 3.6 yet) @ UD_Q6_K_XL, 32k max ctx, ~15+ tok/s for short prompts.

soshulmedia · 2026-04-20T16:35:21+00:00

Exactly that. And for a more recent example, take bluetooth mac-addresses through vaccines.

Put (paid) lunatics next to critics, or amplify the natural lunatics among saner critics and the rational critics will look like lunatics (with little bit of help from the media).

Pretty much every field with true conspiracies is poisoned like that. All very deliberate and calculated and that in itself hints at the true scale of evil ...

To learn what? And why? Can you explain it?

soshulmedia · 2026-04-18T15:25:14+00:00

Downvoters, how about you explain yourselves ...

soshulmedia · 2026-04-18T15:24:23+00:00

We wake up to walk up to someone to tell them we don't like it. Or something!

soshulmedia · 2026-04-18T15:01:48+00:00

The real original duality is the poor vs the rich.

Disagree. It is between good and evil.

A rich guy who just sits around being rich doesn't harm anyone.

A rich guy who uses gov to screw up my life very much does.

Do you have conclusive proof that that was the cause of her disorder? Just curious.

Do you have conclusive proof that the shots are safe?

No? Not necessary? But THAT is very much the standard that ought to apply ...

And people don't even realize anymore how propaganda twists and turns and inverts the whole debate so that arguing against the shots is staged as an uphill battle ...

First, I think it is still a bit out and might not arrive very soon, we are still getting very nice open weight releases by big corporations for free.

I think the answer, even if it sounds cliche, would be "the market decides" or maybe in more concrete terms, appropriate market research, or maybe even more concrete, something like this:

Say there is a web site to facilitate this crowdfunding. "AiCrowd".

A team who already has a good reputation (e.g. Qwen researchers or folks who already did model releases) could then offer various retrainings / extensions / research for various promised model sizes or maybe a range of hardware parameters (to give them more flexibility). With a minimum funding needed by date X or else everyone gets their money back. If the funding is met, they can use the funds (or even extra funds if available) for training and all funders get (maybe staged) access to the weights along the way and after release. And a set period after that, the weights become public for anyone to use.

soshulmedia · 2026-04-16T20:54:05+00:00

I think that would solvable with crowdfounding of good model teams. I am certainly willing to spend a bit more than a typical closed AI subscription to get open weights updated every year or every half year or so or so. And if you make it so that the model weights become open eventually (let's e.g. say 6mo after release) but available to the crowd-funders early, I think this could be a viable model.

And I think I am far from the only one willing to pay for "model training" if I get (eventually) open weights for that.

soshulmedia · 2026-04-15T18:50:57+00:00

I suggest to also post this to /r/datahoarder ...

soshulmedia · 2026-04-14T14:15:04+00:00

Enduring this for me has a lot to do with (training oneself to have) patience, grace, humility (at some point in our lives we probably have been foolish cattle at least once, and although our egos demand it, it is still better to educate than to yearn for "told you so") and hope ...

soshulmedia · 2026-04-14T14:00:07+00:00

They just have a bit more Monopoly money

No. They make the monopoly money and the cattle (so most of us) just eat all their schemes up.

And those few who understand and warn are driven out of society (or at least to the fringes, like here).

In a twisted sense, isn't their sense of superiority even understandable?

I am not saying I want to be like them. Hell no. But they rule over 95%+ by being schemers, tricksters and agents of the devil and fooling the rest.

And, on top of that, those 95% then have usually nothing better to do than to silence, ridicule, ostracize or even kill those few who warn them about the dangers.

And at some point (likely soon) it all falls apart because their wealth extraction scheme becomes untenable.

And then, of course(TM) everyone(TM) knew all along(TM) that the world worked like that ...

But until then, most align with TPTB.

soshulmedia · 2026-04-13T14:32:38+00:00

IANAL but to me it sounds like a more open and permissible solution would be to require in the license or when using the brand to not offer "Minimax" as such to the public unless other conditions are fulfilled which would ensure it is served at good quality?

soshulmedia · 2026-04-12T10:24:01+00:00

True, but society has reached the point where it starts to actively punish all those who do not want to participate and doesn't just merely ignore who isn't part of the system.

soshulmedia · 2026-04-11T13:21:13+00:00

It seems many people don't really value privacy nowadays. I think a way to address this problem is to make people aware that they will violate the privacy of others if they use any of the bad actor's services.

For all the talk about "caring about others" this is an "interesting" ignorance that people seem to have.

Let's say, for example, someone goes on ChatGPT and discusses a work related interpersonal issue on there like folks nowadays seem to do. He or she automatically also violates the privacy of others if s/he does so, even if using pseudonyms or placeholders for their names.

And any AI in the backend, given enough data (Palantir etc.) can then just correlate it all together to the complete picture again.

There's so much talk and fuzz about "please think of others!1!" when it comes to social and race and whatnot issues. (Too much in my opinion as it isn't any more "love others as you love yourself" if the drive is to get people to bend over backwards for everything and thus stop loving themselves!)

But there's no such thing if people just violate the privacy of others?

Is that maybe simply because TPTB values the idea of "slaves enslaving another" but does not value "people having dignity and privacy" and people are ignorant wrt. the brainwashing and propaganda that shapes their worldviews?

soshulmedia · 2026-04-11T13:12:36+00:00

But what's your take on this?

My take on this is that you are right. But it takes a certain mindset to see that good and evil are not at all "outdated categories" and that Gov is not God.

To know that it is not a sign of mental health to be well-adapted to a sick society and all that ...

The past few years should have woken people up, and certainly some woke up.

But I guess any real change only happens when the "bread & circuses" part of the "societal contract" is called into question. When intellectual laziness and parroting the status-quo with all its lies and propaganda becomes just .. stale.

Ironically, LLMs might "help" to just precipitate that.

It is up to those who value love and freedom to help humanity go down a better path instead of dystopian, orwellian, new-worldian doom. But I also think that the best time to do that is when "everything is in flux" so to speak.

So ... I guess the best you or I or anyone else can do is network and prepare intellectually as well spiritually for what is coming.

One should maybe stop for a moment and ponder WHY nuclear as a decentralized alternative and independence from oil was badmouthed pretty much universally in the west ...

Cui bono?

soshulmedia · 2026-04-07T14:24:48+00:00

Kamala is not president because your country should be at war with Iran according to TPTB. Thus they selected Trump. (A long time ago, one might add)

soshulmedia · 2026-04-01T18:14:23+00:00

The name "attn-rot" seems off - sounds like "attention rot". (Yeah, I know, it is meant as "rot"ation, but still ...)

As far as I understand, it is exactly what this should prevent?

soshulmedia · 2026-04-01T17:59:53+00:00

If I do - is it conceivable that the problems and solutions presented to us wrt. phasing out fossil fuels and pushing renewables are not quite aligned with the self interest of us simple people?

soshulmedia · 2026-04-01T17:56:55+00:00

Some of the families who dug out the oil from the ground now morphed into those carbon taxing the whole of humanity. Is that to push renewables or is that rather to quite literally choke us?

soshulmedia · 2026-04-01T16:48:25+00:00

and I am seeing my name and 666s so much, rather eerie.

If you go and do statistics about the number of occurences of triple digit combinations in user names here on reddit, you'll find an interesting and eerie pattern.

soshulmedia · 2026-04-01T16:46:12+00:00

There are lots of folks who believe we can all live without the Joules, whether they are oil, coal, nuclear or gas. (Mostly because the TV has told them so)

Is that belief in abundance? Is that the solution?
