Mistral AI really shines a light on OpenAI.

As a cyber collector, I have LLaMa1, LLaMa2, Mistral8x7B laying in my nas. Although I don't have powerful enough hardware to run them, but it's a good thing to have. And I'm looking forward to the dolphin variant.

* Dolphin is a decensored model based on those open source models.

@freemo I can’t speak to AU/NZ usage, but the UK definitely defaults to plural in most cases. Note you’re citing a particular place’s style guide, not a description of what is spoken. You can find lots of descriptions of the actual spoken differences if you look. Here’s the first few hits for me:

Bow ya figure that makes no sense. Accumulating resources in a vault untouched is the least effecient form, you literally have negative effiency as inflation devalues assets. A person would achieve effiency by investing thrir mo ey wisely and ensuring other people are using those resources to effectively increase the total resources in the market.

You are getting stuck in the fallacy that someone havibg authority (ownership) over those resources means that other people cant use it for their own gains as well which is entierly contrary to the reality. Those resources will be in others hands and used by them in some agreement to use them for mutual gain (investment in others).

@avlcharlie How is it a oxymoron. All capitalism is is any system which includes free market trade, that is, trade in which natural supply-demand pressures dominate the markets pricing.

Nothing about that implies greed or altruism, it only implies everyone is trying to maximize their own fitness function (get the most utility for their resources). Its about effiency not greed.

@freemo@qoto.org National flight? I've never seen such a setup before. Granted, I've never flown first class before but this seems weird.

@freemo Confirmed. We are.

@freemo
I wondered if that was the angle. It is an unfortunate but realistic view.

While not probable I still hold out that there is a possibility, however minuscule, that we can break that cycle.
