Pussy. Ass. Bitch.
has so far only been used to train Musk’s own Grok AI
The Grok models are a laughing stock in the LLM space. They aren't good over APIs, and they're even less useful after Elon "open sources" them far later. Qwen 72B, and heck, Qwen 32B is already better than Grok 2, which is probably hundreds of billions of parameters. Qwen is runnable locally right now, Apache 2.0, and released day one. Grok 1 is... well, I dunno, no one has even bothered to try hosting it for anything.
I dunno what Twitter is doing with all those H100s Elon hoarded, but it seems like a big waste so far. Its certainly nothing to help the open source/self hosting space or to "decensor" and "democratize" LLMs like Elon fans seem to think.
ive been enjoying bluesky more than twitter. i just wish more bug accounts would migrate. i post on both platforms with a script that i wrote and my engagement/followers ratio is far higher
I tried Bluesky but just couldn't get into it. Same with Mastodon. I like Lemmy because long-form posts/comments are more interesting to me. I'm liking Threads a bit, too.
I like the long form posts and I also find those sort of sites way too fast-moving to keep up with.
Maybe it's because I'm an old man who grew up on BBSes, but forums are much more my speed.
Wonderful. Negative press for Musk makes me smile.
Do they drift back though. Bigger accounts seems to struggle to kick the Twitter high .
even tho twitter is more ruined by him people will still use it
Network effect is a hell of a drug
What pros are there to having a blocked person still be able to see your posts?
