It seems melodramatic right until Russia blows up your bank's data center, and their digital payment system goes down for days or weeks just as you're out buying groceries.
Some LLM companies paid with stocks instead of cash, or with a mix of cash and stocks. Sometimes Nvidia invested in companies and those companies used that money to buy Nvidia GPUs / NPUs.
Nvidia can lose a lot of money if those companies fail. But even in the absolute worst case, Nvidia can go back to making video game GPUs and they will be fine.
The problem is for everyone else who invested in AI. Especially American "401" retirement funds that always invest in the 100 biggest companies.
This is the narrative I completely do not Get. The ai is here , it will eat lots of markets . There’s no way back . If one llm vendor will go bankrupt, their capacity will be picked up. In fact before that it will be absorbed by other vendors . If let’s say OpenAI will fall out of race , it will start slowly on the course of a year selling their commitments to the winner. It’s still unhealthy still tens of billions will evaporate but this is not something can cause apocalypse
A more relevant quote is "to enable equal opportunities regarding the access to knowledge and education." from their mission statement. As a gemeinnütziger Verein (charitable association) their charta is legally binding.
well one can argue that many more people will write code with AI assistance than without it.. here i see the opposite: The wish of few outweigh the need of many.
Can one argue with a straight face that people will learn to code better by using a predominantly AI-based workflow? Or even learn by reading vibecode uploaded by someone else?
Hell, I'd argue that Vibecode without the prompt that generated it isn't even real open source.
Can you argue that you could learn to code better, copying and paste code from stack overflow? Who wants to learn, learns.. we did without Internet, and I still learn with AI.. btw, is in the "Satzung" from Codeberg e.V something about "learn to code?
> Can you argue that you could learn to code better, copying and paste code from stack overflow?
The learning doesn't come from copying and pasting code from stack overflow. It comes from
A) searching which code to copy and paste
and
B) Fixing the broken code that you just copied and pasted.
I suspect most programmers outgrow the "copying and pasting from stackoverflow" period of their development pretty quickly when they get frustrated by the fact that most of the stuff they were copying and pasting is broken or sub optimal in some way. If they prompt claude "write me a function", and then when it's broken they prompt "fix the broken function", they're learning (and doing!) a lot less.
Did you... read my post? The first thing I posted in this thread was a direct quote from the Satzung. Did you think "education" was about learning the history of the Ottoman Empire..?
It has an SD card because proper flash is expensive. Surely the people making "4TB" flash drives on Temu must be using the same methods, or else they will be soon.
