In theory couldn’t you download the application but then it just makes API calls to OpenAI?

I am trying to use HuggingFace and suspect I will get similar answers to GPT-4. Can someone who knows how to download it ask for example which country Justin Trudeau is the president of?

They need a sexy website. Feels like boomer org made worse by being drowned in DEI woke language. No very high competency young people would want to work for this IMO

So much of the Meta hate in tech circles comes from same cope psychology of engineers thinking “if you build it they’ll come” and failing at acquisition.

Ads help SMBs and larger ones so much. Sure there’s issues here and there but meta has probably pushed GDP forward pretty hard and enabled awesome amounts of product discovery, and this is just on the ads side. Think of everything people have learned on FB/IG. I’ve met so many valuable people.

They should earn $15/hr. The faster we impose a global minimum wage (or harsh sanctions on violators) the better.

Also surprised there aren’t more content moderators. FB (just FB alone for now due to them being a monopoly) should be required, IMHO, to review every piece of content before it is shown in a feed using human review. We don’t let movies get shown before they get reviewed (e.g. PG13).

It’s sickening how unethical of a move this is. EU regulators are going to deprive hundreds of millions of people from being closer together / sharing valuable memories. This will go down in history as one of the worst abuses of state power.
