News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

It’s also open source and you can run it locally without a super beefy GPU. The big deal is that it’s super light on resources compared to GPT, while producing comparable results. It’s only a question of time until someone makes a less censored version of it.
Either way, OpenAI is doomed unless they have something up their sleeves.
I am interested to see what the more knowledgeable folks come across when inspecting it and really testing it out. If it is legit, that is a huge step forward against these have-it-all tech bros blighting everything.
I don’t think they would’ve made it open source if they had anything to hide. Now there’s also many eyes on it, so we’ll probably learn soon enough if something is off.
Yup, that gives me hope. Also, I am aggressively anti-CCP, but very pro Chinese, so if the people that made it aren't being manipulated by the CCP and some of the self-censor is just habit or survival, I get it. They have decent STEM education, if you are the right people, and they are an innovative people.
I'm not sure swapping out one set of tech bros for another set is changing all that much?
I think a lot of the costs of LLMs was always going to drive toward much lower numbers even given the software techniques more or less staying the same, given how the costs of electronics go....I already could run several models on hardware that I bought several years ago.
I do think it holds a lot of promise when properly applied, but yeah, a lot of the speculation is from the usual assholes hoping to "disrupt" things by throwing nearly everyone out of a job. I'm not sure these Chinese tech bros are going to be any more benevolent (in the long term) than the current set in the U.S. OpenAI started as a non-profit....
