Basically a deer with a human face. Despite probably being some sort of magical nature spirit, his interests are primarily in technology and politics and science fiction.
Spent many years on Reddit before joining the Threadiverse as well.
Sadly they don’t seem to have 36B-A3B models on their roadmap any more, they didn’t do one for 3.8 either. I agree it was a nice sweet spot between speed and capability, I still use the 3.6 version of 36B-A3B for larger-scale local work. Maybe someone else will aim for that. Or Qwen4 will do something new with the architecture that makes it unnecessary.
I’m really looking forward to seeing what Qwen4 is like. 3.8 was just 3.6 with additional training, my understanding is that Qwen4 is new from the ground up.
Wouldn’t have guessed that he’d be a bit of an unstable fellow.
I’ve spent the last week or so coding an application using nothing but Qwen3.8-27B. I was curious how much I could do entirely with a local model running on my own personal hardware, and it turns out the answer was “everything.”
Granted, it’s not the fanciest application. But it’s fun.
To avoid the word repetition I propose “Super Duper Intelligence.”
If that ends up being our successors and legacy to the universe I’d at least like it to be saddled with a silly name so they’ll remember us.
We’re working on automating the labor too. Turns out art was just easier.
Yeah, it does seem inconsistent with the view that anything AI touches must obviously look awful.
Thanks, but I can’t claim credit - it’s a Simpsons quote (Sideshow Bob complaining about being charged with attempted murder for trying to kill Bart).
Why would there be? There isn’t a Nobel Prize for Attempted Chemistry.
Especially given that you can only be prosecuted for a crime after you’ve actually committed it.
Yeah, I get the impression that this is a clickbait “hey you know that thing that’s kind of annoying/problematic/whatever? Well now AI can do it too!” Sort of news story.
AI didn’t “reinvent” sending large amounts of unsolicited email. It was never deinvented in the first place.
Girls can totally be dudes or bros. It’s a state of mind.
Indeed, throughout nature it’s almost all sigmoids. The trick is that sigmoids look exponential before the inflection point and it’s hard to predict when that inflection point is going to come.
I’m sure people will approach this news story in a sane and well-reasoned manner.
Nice. We uploaded a mind into a computer and the first thing we did was put it in a simulation of Hell and teach it how to shoot things.
Yeah, funny how this is “PR” and manipulation but “pervert glasses” is perfectly fine.
It’s an interesting idea to have an AI psychiatrist or AI confessional where you can talk to it about anything at all in an air-gapped environment and then at the end you can push a button that completely wipes every trace of the conversation that’s outside of your own mind. Could be beneficial.
No, I’m suggesting that you’re not very knowledgeable about socialism.
That’s not how supply and demand works. When a market is out of economic equilibrium like this, with demand sharply rising, that is literally what drives competitors to arise and to try to increase supply to match. This is fertile ground for exactly that outcome to happen.
