He's training Zuckerberg?

[–] ASDraptor@lemmy.autism.place 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

HE is training it? Oh boy... Expect absolute meltdowns every time you call it for the right wrong name or tell it it's wrong in its statement.

Isn't he the one who warned that AI would be the end of mankind?

[–] chevy9294@monero.town 0 points 2 months ago

Yep, he announced his AI.

[–] LogicalDrivel@sopuli.xyz 0 points 2 months ago

Maybe that was more of a mission statement than a prediction.

[–] vegeta@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

AI for me, but not for thee.

[–] ripple@feddit.it 0 points 2 months ago

It was back when he feared of being left behind by other companies

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Elon the worlds most powerful con man is at it again.

[–] SuckMyWang@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think it’s why he drifted right. He couldn’t handle being called out on his bullshit so he needed to find a group of people who wouldn’t question him

[–] Invertedouroboros@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Absolutely. So much of the right wing media space is inhabited by, funded by, and glorifies grifters that they've created a constant chunk of their audience that is vulnerable to their tactics. Values or policy prescriptions don't even really need to come into it, if you are a grifter it's just a smart business decision to start drifting to the right. It opens up those audiences to you because you are "one of them".

[–] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

He's the richest. Trump was the most powerful.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago

whenever he opens his mouth tesla stock drops 10%

[–] Telorand@reddthat.com 0 points 2 months ago

Also, his wang is the biggest by every metric, he's the funniest guy by every metric, and everybody loves him by every metric.

I long for a world where people like him stop talking.

[–] MagicShel@programming.dev 0 points 2 months ago

Listening to Musk is like that logic puzzle where one guy speaks only lies. But without the other guy.

[–] magic_lobster_party@kbin.run 0 points 2 months ago (3 children)

He’s also promising a fully self drivable car by the end of 2017

[–] RedEyeFlightControl@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Here's a comprehensive and up to date list of failed deliveries, so far.

[–] Arkouda@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 months ago

To be fair it drives on its own. Off cliffs, into walls and other vehicles, while seemingly targeting pedestrians BUT it does drive on its own. haha

[–] tofubl@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 2 months ago

Oh boy, 2017 can't come soon enough!

[–] kokesh@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Who cares what this a*shole says

[–] Teknikal@eviltoast.org 0 points 2 months ago

This time next year he's going to unveil a newly skinned Eliza.

Well, it says 100k H100s.

Looks like an H100 is 700W.

looks at the TOPS500 list of supercomputers

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOP500

The top entry there -- has, as accelerator cards 36,992 MI250Xs, which are apparently 500W each.

It's the highest compute card count other than one using Intel Max 1550s, which has 63,744 cards, which are 600W each.

I'm not sure that the TOPS500 is necessarily the best ranking here, since I don't know if it's the best metric for GPU-style compute, and the CPUs are also a factor. But at least going off what he's saying, it'd probably rank above those for GPU power consumption (and compute capacity).

By x metrics

[–] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Putin really taught him to speak Russian. Everything is the opposite of what he says.

[–] amongstthetrees@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Could you please not disparage an entire language and ethnic group? There's an entire grocery list of things you could insult Musk about, even while including Putin, to not bring the Russian language into it.

[–] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

After "you have some people speaking Russian there" became a reason for invading a country, the entire language and ethnic group is indeed viewed less favorably.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Foolish Elon, we don't use the metric system here!

[–] tofubl@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 2 months ago

It's going to be powerful by every imperial, too.

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Meh. It’ll still have all the weaknesses of other LLMs.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Plus it'll be extra special after Elon trains it. An LLM that comes with a helmet for itself.

[–] Angry_Autist@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

The real advances we will see in the coming years will be postprocessing. We don't need new LLMs, we need new ways to make use of the data we already have models for.

[–] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

It'll probably also guarantee 45m/ month to some rapists presidential campaign.

[–] Cosmicomical@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

He's not doing shit, someone is doing something and he's capturing the merit

[–] oakey66@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Mfer can't even deliver the $25k Tesla. You think he's going to deliver the most powerful AI? Lol. I got some snake oil to sell you.

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Is it named Sloth? Actually that's a disservice to Sloth.

[–] Mars2k21@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Eh this is the same guy who has promised real self-driving cars within 2 years....every 2 years. I'll believe it when I see it.

(also why is OP being downvoted for posting the article, it's news and from a reputable site)

[–] MeanEYE@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

For past 11 years. And don't forget the convoy technology they can do today™.

[–] Angry_Autist@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well if this stacks up with the rest of his claims then it's going to perform as a GPT2 model and come out the box rrrrrreeeeealllly racist.

Next year™

Every metric! Miles per gallon! Head of cattle per acre! Every possible metric!
