If I started a business selling bootleg DVDs, but I somehow used AI and then got sued into oblivion and couldn't sell my DVDs, would you consider that some fundamental AI economics issue?

Tom @moll.dev

I feel like that's pretty important context to your "AI don't work" story if all the people working on said thing, get aqui-hired by a massive tech company. Basically leaving behind a bunch of marketing folks and lawyers to deal with the law suits

404, come on guys, not a SINGLE mention that Google bought this company in 2024 for $2.5B to get their team of researchers back? No mention this company was an AI lab before pivoting to "sexy chats with Mickey Mouse"?

404 Media @404media.co It enshittified its product but was still burning tons of cash, its bankruptcy documents say. Character.ai's Bankruptcy Documents Show the Economics of AI Don't Work

This improvement does not hold on larger models where there is limited available memory. So the ideal use case for this is running multiple agent processes with a 4B or 9B model on a single Mei instance. For our 32GB Mac Qwen 3.6 35B works but sees no improvement, beyond supporting the use case

Mei now allows concurrent agents (with their own history and context), considering the use case; relatively low memory machines, max concurrent is 2 with more connecting agents ending up in queue. Since this allows for more efficient cache use it KV cache speed and TTFT github.com/tijs/mei/rel...

Vorige week kregen we een paar keer mail van AH. Ik denk fishing. Nu vraag ik me af of dat de aanloop naar de hack was.

Either I'm about to do something super brilliant and I'll be super happy, or it's going to be really really dumb and I'll be all sad.

Yet another PDS implementation? But why? angrydutchman.pckt.blog

Software gedraagt zich soms als een quantumdinges. Je tuigt wat meetinstrumenten op om een probleem (dat soms optreedt) te begrijpen. Het probleem doet zich niet voor. En dan zodra je stopt meten: boem klats! Nondeju!

Hey @tranquil.farm - y'all got any idea how much memory Tranquil uses on average? A ballpark figure would be cool, actual hard data (metrics) would be even better. Asking for a friend 👀

AngryDutchman @angrydutchman.online

bitch loudly at operators and potentially even correct it. The fact this was even possible is a design flaw, and an observability problem. Granted controlling 234235 fridges from one system? Also not the best choice. Welcome to corporate IT I guess 🤣

AngryDutchman @angrydutchman.online

Not just that, but the fact that the *refrigeration* system could be set to that temperature to begin with. It's... a fridge. It should (on the hardware end of the damn thing) not allow it to be set over, like, what, 10C or so. Plus whatever is monitoring it should see that it's set out of range and

Kudai @kudai.mu.social Why systems controlled through a central point are a bad idea.

May also come in handy for serving cocore jobs a bit more efficiently but have not really tested that yet.

the ringer: a podcasting company owned by spotify that publishes its video exclusively to netflix and has a website but puts its most premium writing on substack. i'm sure the partnership deals are nice but it's so shortsighted!

very excited that @zachlowenba.bsky.social is writing again. absolutely perplexed that the ringer has a whole website but feels the need to outsource newsletters to substack. guessing bill cashed a big check. zachlowe.substack.com/p/welcome-to...
