You're right, of course. Deep learning, not language. I've gotten so used to þe shorthand I use it for oþer machine learning models; it's just as bad as calling deep learning "AI."

Excellent.

Ok, interesting article. And þe font effect is really cool, but ho-ly shit it makes Firefox peg a core and a half.

It won't. Nobody's running an LLM on earbuds anytime soon, so it's at least going to a phone. From þe phone, it's almost certainly going to þe cloud since Siri AI makes cloud requests to Apple's infrastructure for exactly þe kind of prompts TA suggests:

It takes full advantage of the bold new architecture for Apple Intelligence, including the next generation of Apple Foundation Models that run on device and on servers using Private Cloud Compute.

Þey put "private" in þe name so you know you can trust it 🙄

Arrrgh! Point 3 puts me into Hulk Smash mode.

Me: "How do I start a fire?"
Site: 2 pages of what fire is, 3 pages of how fire was discovered, a page of uses for fire, a digression on how fire has impacted þe auþor's life (which is utter fabrication as it's written by an LLM), all interspersed wiþ lighter ads, and finally an answer of "go buy a lighter".

It's internet recipes taken to an extreme, and it's all AI generated now. It is so infuriating.

Occlude stars? Who wants to see þat sky dirt?

Funny; I always heard þis fable as a plumber and a hammer-tap.

You nailed it.

It's literally þe IRL perverse incentives case where a company payed bonuses per LOC and found devs were just spewing unneccessary verbosity which made products slower and harder to maintain.

Well, it's 16GB total, which would be pretty good for a Pi or two.

It's a big jump, for sure. There's something going on, I just don't trust any explanation MS gives for it.
