I noticed many were people were having problems finding where to voice your response to the Open Source AI Regulation request by the NTIA. I have provided a link below. Click on "comments" and provide your message.

It is important that we provide a well reasoned and thoughtful response to counter the flood of fearmongers.

Please do so as open source AI will depend upon it.

In the words of Ubisoft we need to feel "comfortable with not owning your game". If buying is not owning then piracy is not stealing.

Got any recommended resources for piracy sites/lists?

What are your favorite mathematics channels/videos on YouTube?

There are tons of great videos on YT, but I'll list some resources from 3Blue1Brown's SoME3 contest if you want to discover more math explainers.

SoME3 Resources

This is a continuation to my original "What are the most mindblowing things in mathematics?" post.

The Patriot Act and Snowden's leaks have shown companies will go against their privacy policy to appease governments. Search engines especially are targeted by five eyes with the PRISM program where copies of all your data, linked to your payment, are sent to Five Eyes and stored. Gag orders and legal threats prevent disclosure, as has been done with prior tech companies who have tried to push back against this.

Be wary of trusting corporations with your data as monetization is a powerful incentive.

I'm worried eventually even Kagi will get enshittified. It has been a common trend that almost always occurs. Open source is the only way to ensure stability. Conflict of interest is what leads to companies either overcharging, or even accepting to get bought out.

Don't get me wrong, Kagi seems to be a great company thus far! But for something as important as search it would be best to have an open source solution.

The enshitification has been a gradual process. Think of it as slowly boiling a frog. I've observed the quality of search slowly degrading over the past 2 decades. Just recently, it has gotten to such a severe point that searching has been useless.

Altavista was ahead of their time. The modern internet desperately needs a technical search engine.

It is becoming near impossible to find relevant information from search engines. Duckduckgo, SearXNG, Bing, Google, and so many more mainstream engines have a significantly high noise to signal ratio, and it is getting worse.

Here are a collection of the best search engines I know, please add more to the list.

If no more high quality search engines exist, would it be possible to host your own?

EDIT: Some new discoveries. The addon uBlacklist and filters can block super SEO sites from appearing in search.

I know it is possible to split layers between Nvidia GPUs with cublas. But with AMD and ROCm, it is far more difficult, and maybe not implemented yet for any project?

I wanted to make this post so we can share all the resources we have with each other on anything machine learning related.

Please feel free to add all of your resources as well even if they are duplicates.

PS: The best way to grow a lemmy community is to produce high quality posts.

Some ideas of things you could share:

  • What people do you follow for AI? Such as on YT, Twitter, etc.
  • What other social media forums provide great information?
  • What GUI do you use for local LLMs?
  • What parameters are "best"?
  • Is there a Wiki you use?
  • Where do you go to learn about LLMs/AI/Machine Learning?
  • How do you find quality models?
  • What Awesome github repositories do you know?
  • What do you think would be useful to share?

General Information - Awesome

LLM Leaderboards:

Places to Find Models

Training & Datasets

There are still many more resources out there I'm sure. Please share what you use to try to keep up with the fast pace of AI development.

I hope some of my resources have helped you! I'm eager to hear what other resources are out there!

Please feel free to ask any questions! Math is a wonderful field full of beauty but unfortunately almost all education systems fail to show this and instead makes it seem like raw robotic calculations instead of creativity.

Math is best learned visually and with context to more abstract terms. 3Blue1Brown is the best resource in my opinion for this!

Here's a mindblowing fact for you along with a video from 3Blue1Brown. Imagine you are sliding a 1,000,000 kg box and slamming it into a 1 kg box on an ice surface with no friction. The 1 kg box hits a wall and bounces back to hit the 1,000,000 kg box again.

The number of bounces that appear is the digits of Pi. Crazy right? Why would pi appear here? If you want to learn more here's a video from the best math teacher in the world.

What concepts or facts do you know from math that is mind blowing, awesome, or simply fascinating?

Here are some I would like to share:

  • Gödel's incompleteness theorems: There are some problems in math so difficult that it can never be solved no matter how much time you put into it.
  • Halting problem: It is impossible to write a program that can figure out whether or not any input program loops forever or finishes running. (Undecidablity)

The Busy Beaver function

Now this is the mind blowing one. What is the largest non-infinite number you know? Graham's Number? TREE(3)? TREE(TREE(3))? This one will beat it easily.

  • The Busy Beaver function produces the fastest growing number that is theoretically possible. These numbers are so large we don't even know if you can compute the function to get the value even with an infinitely powerful PC.
  • In fact, just the mere act of being able to compute the value would mean solving the hardest problems in mathematics.
  • Σ(1) = 1
  • Σ(4) = 13
  • Σ(6) > 10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10 (10s are stacked on each other)
  • Σ(17) > Graham's Number
  • Σ(27) If you can compute this function the Goldbach conjecture is false.
  • Σ(744) If you can compute this function the Riemann hypothesis is false.

Yeah lol. Search engines have gone down in quality so bad it really does feel like that. It has been so difficult finding stuff on google/duckduckgo etc that I have to rely on portals now.

Thank you all for your answers!

I wanted to add one resource I found that has helped me find even more relevant search results:

An Internet Portal is an information hub connecting you a much wider portion of the internet.

For example:

What Internet Portals do you know of that you would like to share?

99

Search engines have been dropping in quality significantly within the past decade, and especially within this past year. The noise to signal ratio has been frankly painful.

Can you please share some resources you use when trying to find answers to technical questions?

For example, STEM, academia, engineering, programming, etc.
