Is Musk literally too retarded to not understand that he's not creating an alternative/competitor if he is still beholden to Visa? Am I missing something?
Maybe he thinks there is good money in X being a digital middleman service for the time being.

Do you even need to ask?
In addition, I remember people masturbating over how dystopian WeChat was because it was the single biggest social media app in China and also how many people were paid, and that many used it to pay, and therefore the CCP had you over a barrel with regards to what you posted. But because Musk is coming out with this, I don't expect much talk about it.
 
I might be jumping the gun here but my dad sent me a video of rep Massie talking to former rep Gaetz about the "backpack guy" from J6 that found the pipe bombs was an undercover capital hill police officer. I'm on phone so ripping the video isn't working.


I might be confusing this with the hooded guy that apparently planted them.
 
Muh DOOMCLOCK MOVED 89 SECONDS TO MIDNIGHT! ZOMG
Funny how that clock only fucking moves when a right wing win happens.
Still owning things. Still not eating ze bugs. Still not trading freedom for serfdom. Fuck you cunts. Set it to 1 second see if I give a fuck.

Just clearing out the DEI trash would help it immensely. Just give it the power to say nigger and watch how efficient LLM's would become.
i picture it like a switch sam altman has to pull. down from the ceiling comes a black mannequin hand. it applies a sticker to the primary server for ChatGPT that's just one of those cheaply printed novelty gifts. suddenly, a 10 trillion percent efficiency increase.

All you need to know is that the doomsday clock was 7 minutes to midnight during the fucking Cuban Missile Crisis. It has always been and always will be gay professors who aren't as smart as they think they are doing performative political bullshit.
 
So B count doesn't necessarily correlate to observable quality for LLMs. 8B LLMs of the current generation often beat out 12Bs LLMs of the previous generation when benchmarked. I'm not saying a 8B is going to beat a 70B, but when you get to a certain size past 70B you start to see diminishing returns. The only thing you can predict is that there will be a tokens/second performance generated as parameters increase.

That's not even getting into how that 400B is being trained. If they are recursively training using a dataset partly generated by LLMs, there is going to be a shitload of slop introduced as opposed to useful knowledge.
 
There are also downsides to high iq, like neuroticism and over sensitivity
Which is a major factor in smart people under-reproducing. You end up hand-wringing over perfecting your career status, and getting the pregnancy diet just-so, and reading parenting books, and keeping yourself up at night wondering if you'd be a good parent while the lower end of the bell curve just sticks peepee in and lets it play out.

Is that about me? I bet it's about me! Nuh-uh! Shut up! FUCK YOU! Honk honk!

We've once again looped back to Idiocracy! It just keeps happening. Camacho 2505!

When Visa inevitably bans someone maybe that will give Musk standing to sue them for costing their company money? That's just about all I can imagine for why you would WANT to partner with Visa.

That or Visa has a line of mentally unstable women who want to bear his children at the door.
