I was reading the first sentence (without realizing this LAMF) and thinking I could put a comment saying "Plot twist she actually voted for Trump". Yea not needed.
Well I mean if people throw off their gut microbiome by overloading on this bacteria, it might still be harmful in that way. It does not need to be pathogenic in that sense.
Oh fuck I mean I would love this to be real but this is going to be abused so much in the next couple years. Supermarket shelves and social media posts will fucking be filled with drinks and pills containing (probably nonviable forms) these bacteria by the loads. Good luck everyone.
Also most of us already have enough microplastic embedded in our brains to last a lifetime.
With open source you have the advantage of being able to use different LLMs for different tasks which can be more efficient. Surely Pentagon has access to enough compute power to set this up for a thousand people? The rest is UI, IT and fine tuning by a couple data scientists/programmers trained in LLMs. Surely it is better than Elon who changes his mind on politics every five days and thinks that twenty year olds can run critical government infrastructure because they worship him. Not an expert, just don't like big tech companies, particularly Melon.
On a 200mil laptop? You can run llama4 on a 64GB RAM machine, albeit slowly, which is already an upper scale model. TBF, I didn't do the math to see how much that would add up to along with salaries and server costs etc, mainly because this is pentagon we are talking about so it should already have access to some pretty decent computational capacity. So yea 200mil feels like too much when you already have most of the resources needed (compute and open LLM models for specific tasks).
The really huge upside is you don't have to share confidential information with a company whose CEO is a lunatic who will likely have no qualms about sharing that data with other agents when money and power is involved. Hell you shouldn't share any confidential/sensitive information with any of the large tech companies to be honest. They have become what they are not by sticking to ethical principles and they are likely to grossly overcharge (which defeats the purpose of outsourcing and makes it more reasonable to invest in permanent infrastructure rather). They will surely use it as some sort of leverage, %100 guaranteed.
Interesting I never saw j from a maths person. Friends (from a decade ago!) in electronics eng dep said they use j because i was reserved for current. perhaps the latter depends on the department.
Dude you can just fucking download open LLM models suited for particular tasks and get a semi competent team of programmers/IT/engineers to do whatever Grok does much better for a minute fraction of that cost. Talk about the department of government inefficiency.
