Re: cerebras, they filed a S1 [1] last year when attempting to go public. It showed something like a $60M+ loss for the first 6 months of 2024. The IPO didn’t happen because the CEO’s past included some financial missteps and the banks didn’t want to deal with this. At the time the majority of their revenue came from a single source in Abu Dhabi, as well. They did end up benefiting by the slew of open source model releases which enabled them to become inference providers via APIs rather than needing to provide the full stack for training.

I live in UAE, whose continuing enthusiasm in AI investment stretches well beyond short-term profit, so having AD on-board seems like a plus not a minus. I'm sure there are specific exceptions, but generally Emirati money has seemed like smart money.
My main keyboard has been a 34-key split Ferris. I usually have either a trackpad between the halves if I’m using a Mac or an ergonomic Logitech if on my Linux desktop. Not having to move my hands at all while being able to reach any keys/characters I need has been a welcomed change, worth remapping my brain.
Agreed. It quickly becomes "awkward" to go back to using a numpad once you get used to ALWAYS being one key hold/press away from it. I can type numbers as easily as I can type capitals, ditto with every symbol, and my function keys.
Hell I've even worked on a couple of revision on "gaming" layers. Namely for FPS or older roguelikes.
I hate how hard it is to find a split space(feels mandatory now that i'm used to it) 40% with wireless and QMK/Zia/etc. The EPOMAKER-TH40 SHOULD be perfect, but turns out they put out a breaking patch or something and it's not ACTUALLY programmable anymore. I need something like this for 2 setups at homes.
I went around on a couple of things and landed on the split 4x5 Chiri CE for my everyday workhorse since it's easy to carry.
Of note, while that board seems to be out of stock and isn't for everyone i cannot recommend keeb.io enough. They've done a fantastic job of keeping my board running after I had some ESD ruin it once or twice, and have never charged me as it was still under warranty.
With how hit or miss a lot of this niche keyboard stuff is, it's really really nice to find people who stand by their product and can turn things around. I get its got to be a miserable market so I don't demand it, and I'm extremely happy when I do see it.
This has nothing to do with the newly appointed fellow nor Meta Superintelligence Labs, but rather work from FAIR that would have gone through a lengthy review process before seeing the light of day. Not fun to see the license change in any case
I remember DINOv2 was originally a commercial licence. I (along with others) just asked if they could change it on a GitHub issue, and after some time, they did. Might be worth asking
That’s why you have encoders as well as decoders. For example, another model from Meta does this for translations; they have encoders and decoders into a single embedding space that represents semantic concepts for each language
Not a lawyer but would assume downloading material from libgen is, in the vast majority of cases, illegal because it's a breach of copyright or similar. That’s gotten Meta in quite a spectacle of late [1]
CommonCrawl is composed of copyrighted contents too. You gain copyright on your work automatically the moment you created it, including this very comment.
One could argue that using copyrighted content in LLMs, much like reposting, should fall under fair use. This is also Microsoft's claim in the GitHub Copilot lawsuits. It's up to the court to decide though. (IANAL)
It’s a catchy term, but loaded. Copyright protects only original expression, not ideas and information. So if a computer algorithm reads the former and outputs the latter, arguably copyright isn’t involved at all.
There are plenty of good counterarguments to this as well, when you consider the effects of automation and scale. I’m definitely interested in seeing how the jurisprudence develops as these cases go through the courts.
