Yes, I know - that’s my point. But you need the necessary hardware to run those models in a performative way. Waiting a minute to produce some vaguely relevant gibberish is not going to be of much use. You could also use generative text for other applications, such as video game NPCs, especially all those otherwise useless drones you see in a lot of open world titles could gain a lot of depth.

That’s insane. How can they be doing security hardware and leave a timing attack in there?

Thank you for those links, really interesting stuff.

A processor that isn’t Turing complete isn’t a security problem like the TPM you referenced. A TPM includes a CPU. If a processor is Turing complete it’s called a CPU.

Is it Turing complete? I don’t know. I haven’t seen block diagrams that show the computational units have their own cpu.

CPUs also have co processer to speed up floating point operations. That doesn’t necessarily make it a security problem.

You can if you have a pre-2022 LG TV. It’s more akin to jailbreaking since you can’t install a custom OS, but it does give you more control.

They continually try to get ob the Internet, it’s basically malware at this point. The on board SoC is also usually comically underpowered so the menus stutter.

A lot of TVs are requiring an account login before being able to use it.

Still slow UI.
If only signage displays would have the fidelity of a regular OLED consumer without the business-usage tax on top.

The simple trick to turn a “smart” TV into a regular one is too cut off its internet access.

I just bought a commercial display directly from the Bengal stadium. Still has Wi-Fi.

I think it could definitely automate some roles where you aren’t necessarily thinking and all decisions are made based on information internally available to the PC. For sure these exist but some decisions need human input, I’m not sure how they automate out those roles just because they see stuff happening on the PC every day.

If anything I think this feature is used to spy on users at work and see when keystrokes fall below a certain level each day, but I’m sure that’s already possible for companies to do (but they just don’t).

but do you REALLY think that on-device AI is going to prevent all your shit being sent to anyone who wants it

Yes, obviously, especially if you are running all open source software.

All your unattended date will be taken (and some of the attended one). This doesn’t mean you should stop to attend your data. Even of you’re somehow forced to use Windows instead open alternative, it doesn’t mean you can’t dual boot or use other privacy conscious devices when dealing with your sensitive data.

Closed/proprietary OS and hardware driver can’t be considered safe by design)

I replied to the person above “locally on Linux”.

Even in Windows, local queries give the possibility of control. Set your firewall and it cannot leak.

Not the guy you were asking but it’s great for writing powershell scripts

I’m a programmer so when learning a new framework or library I use it as an interactive docs that allows follow up questions.

I also use it to generate things like regex and SQL queries.

It’s also really good at refactoring code and other repetitive tasks like that

But you can run more complex networks faster. Which is what I want.

An NPU, or Neural Processing Unit, is a dedicated processor or processing unit on a larger SoC designed specifically for accelerating neural network operations and AI tasks.

Exactly what we are talking about.

That still needs an FPGA. While they certainly seems to be able to use smaller ones, adding an FPGA chip will still add cost
