Out of curiosity, is there any other reason for 128GB other than “just to max it out”?
Because if you don’t actually need it, you’d get better performance with 64GB or 48GB due to being able to use higher clock speeds. (Depends on the CPU)
This screams: “I don’t want to parent my kids, so let the government do it instead, and do it to me too along the way.”
Do you really not see how that takes away your own agency? Both in terms of raising your kids and your own privacy.
Why not?
It’s something that benefits both Android and Apple users by removing unnecessary restrictions.
Afaik, it costs 24k rub for 32GB to DiY. 40k for the cheapest DIMM kit I could find
You can never be too big to fail
P.S. No, I’m not saying that Nvidia’s going bankrupt
App store being the only option where you can install apps from is a major issue.
I live in an autocratic country and have to suffer from sanctions due to our officials’ abhorrent decisions.
Due to that, for example, none of the banking apps can be installed on iPhones. So, NFC is useless. Neither does it have anti-DPI apps to overcome censorship, afaik.
AI happened. It requires an immense amount of RAM and storage for data centers, and manufacturers don’t have enough production capacity to keep up.
Prices were going down because the consumer market didn’t have as much of a demand for both after covid.
I believe I’ve seen them announce that already, so, yeah
Not really an option considering it’s even more locked down.
Hope Valve comes up with something eventually, after all they’ve been getting into x86 emulation for mobile ARM chips lately. Granted, it was for VR, but still.
They also already have installation from external sources turned on by default.
Why the hell are we babying people who turn it off? They read the warning, they know the risks.
You don’t need a credit card for a dev account. You do, however, need to have a “business” attached. Luckily, that business they’re asking for doesn’t need to be verified, so it can be just a random string of letters.
Still bs that you have to go through all of that just to install apps you want.
I don’t trust Microsoft to make apps on their OS work as well as on x86. Their support so far with X elite/pro chips was very telling.
Credit where credit is due, Apple worked hard with other developers to make the transition to ARM possible. Microsoft doesn’t seem to be bothered to do that much.
It does, but in my experience, it’s way worse for recollection.
Electronic devices are superior when it comes to storing and organizing data, which makes it a better tool if you prefer to use active recall as a memorisation method.
I had literal books worth of notes until switching to a tablet (a stylus keeps the benefits of writing, btw). And going over them when preparing for exams was an absolute nightmare.
Proxy is a step below VPN since it doesn’t tunnelise data.
Anti-detect browsers. Do you mean Tor? It’s a decent solution, albeit the slowest one.
What people use to bypass the great Chinese firewall is VPN with VLESS protocols. Unlike usual VPN protocols, those are specifically made to bypass censorship.
Any government already has all of that information, so, no.
By giving it to a company, you just increase the risks of info leakage.
A little background info:
Russia’s been sponsoring one of its oligarchs’ business by eliminating their competition.
First, they restricted YouTube’s speed to an unusable state to force people to switch to RuTube (they didn’t)
Now they’re trying to force people to switch from WhatsApp (and potentially Telegram) to MAX, which they want to be Russia’s version of WeChat.
Add the fact that our politicians are obsessed with controlling all of the media and you’ll get the gist of it.
People don’t predict values to determine their answers to questions…
Also, it’s called neural network, not because it works exactly like neurons but because it’s somewhat similar. They don’t “run on neural networks”, they’re called like that because it’s more than one regression model where information is being passed on from one to another, sort of like a chain of neurons, but not exactly. It’s just a different name for a transformer model.
I don’t know enough to properly compare it to actual neurons, but at the very least, they seem to be significantly more deterministic and way way more complex.
Literally, go to chatgpt and try to test its common reasoning. Then try to argue with it. Open a new chat and do the exact same questions and points. You’ll see exactly what I’m talking about.
Alzheimer’s is an entirely different story, and no, it’s not stochastic. Seizures are stochastic, at least they look like that, which they may actually not be.
It’s not. It’s a math formula that predicts an output based on its parameters that it deduced from training data.
Say you have following sets of data.
We can calculate a regression model using those numbers to predict what Y would equal to if X was 4.
I won’t go into much detail, but
Y = 2 + 1x + e
e in an ideal world = 0 (which it is, in this case), that’s our model’s error, which is typically set to be within 5% or 1% (at least in econometrics). b0 = 2, this is our model’s bias. And b1 = 1, this is our parameter that determines how much of an input X does when predicting Y.
If x = 4, then
Y = 2 + 1×4 + 0 = 6
Our model just predicted that if X is 4, then Y is 6.
In a nutshell, that’s what AI does, but instead of numbers, it’s tokens (think symbols, words, pixels), and the formula is much much more complex.
This isn’t intelligence and not deduction. It’s only prediction. This is the reason why AI often fails at common sense. The error builds up, and you end up with nonsense, and since it’s not thinking, it will be just as confidently incorrect as it would be if it was correct.
Companies calling it “AI” is pure marketing.
For real, tho
Max is supposed to be, well, maximum
Which is not only not the case since they had to put a “+” on top of it, but it is also, apparently, wasn’t good enough, so they slapped “Pro” to boot.
Even without the “AI” crap the name is ridiculous.
Why couldn’t it have been Ryzen 495? Sure, make it Ryzen AI 495 even, whatever. But Max+ Pro? Seriously, AMD? Did they let a 12 year old chuunibyo name their products? What in the f happened here?
