My dog Rhodie likes to hang out with me in the AI data center. This is one bank of 8 workstations that are handling data pipeline processes, formatting incoming text content for training LLMs. We have several banks of these set up to handle thousands of "tokens" per second, while we have a rack of high-end servers at a different location that are stacked with Nvidia GPUs for the actual LLM training (which goes on 24/7). New models coming soon, non-commercial, free to download and use from Brighteon.AI

Here's Why You Should be Using RSS Feeds

In an era dominated by social media algorithms and curated news feeds, the humble RSS feed often finds itself relegated to the sidelines, dismissed as a relic of the internet's past.

However, far from being outdated and irrelevant, RSS feeds actually remain one of the most powerful tools for staying informed in the digital age. It is likely they have been intentionally deemphasized because they are a legitimate threat to those in power as they allow you to circumvent media censorship.

RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, allows you to curate your own news sources and tailor your information intake to your personal preferences. I suspect its lack of popularity stems not from inefficiency, but from the fact that RSS poses a very real threat to the gatekeepers of information. Hence its use is no longer encouraged by the media establishment the way it used to.

Anthropic researchers have published a paper regarding their understanding of how an LLM works. Think about how much investment has been made into LLMs... and we're just starting to understand how they actually "work" 🙂.

"Today we report a significant advance in understanding the inner workings of AI models. We have identified how millions of concepts are represented inside Claude Sonnet, one of our deployed large language models. This is the first ever detailed look inside a modern, production-grade large language model. This interpretability discovery could, in future, help us make AI models safer."
