Well much of the rest of the world has sanctioned Russia for the whole warmongering thing. India prefers war profiteering.

Air cooling is probably not possible at modern data center scale (at least AI data centers, they have ridiculous power density), closed loop cooling very much is, but it takes more power so it's cheaper to just evaporate a ton of air unfortunately.
Going to need bills like this everywhere, or water prices raised significantly for non-home usage.
As far as I understand, they use air conditioning PLUS water cooling. As in, the water is used to cool the AC condensers. Because even just AC alone isn't cutting it.
Well at least you didn't hack a Gibson
I swear I've seen either Zero Cool or Acid Burn around here somewhere.
I found a bunch of obscure movies from the 1930s and 1940s when a friend asked for some. I'm still seeding them. And I do mean obscure, not like Citizen Kane or something that everyone knows.
As the other commenter said, likely from China. The US banned exports of the super high-end chips to China IIRC, but not low-end stuff. And India is known to sell anything to anyone as well.
It's also probably mostly BlackRock index funds. Which means tons of retail investors are part of this ownership.
I wonder if that dazzle camo used by manufacturers for testing prototype cars would work. I wouldn't mind getting something like that on my car
There's actually a setting you can enable if you want Apple to not hold your iCloud keys. A necessary side effect is that you can't recover access through Apple so you'll have to set up another form of account recovery.
I don't think you have any idea how much the power consumption is unfortunately. The roof would cover maybe 1-10% of the power consumption of a modern data center. A single rack's power consumption is basically the same as a neighborhood. An entire data center is more like a small country.
To be clear I'm not trying to say it's OK they're using gas plants, I'm just saying why the solar power Musk promised was never going to be feasible.
Edit: My bad, this is a fab, I thought it was yet another XAI datacenter. Might be more feasible, but still - for energy intensive purposes, which this is likely to be, on-site solar can offset part of the energy requirement, but generally not all of it.
Question is, how long are they going to keep making their new models open weight? GPT2 was open too, y'know. Hell, the company that made it is called "Open"AI. Money corrupts.
And how many concurrent users do you get with 8 B300s on the Kimi K3? I'm not 100% sure on the math, but apparently about <= 4 with full context size.
They can make these models open weight because basically nobody's gonna be able to run them and you can't just build a brand new model out of it like you can with regular open source software. That 8 nvidia B300 card minimum isn't enough to run it commercially, it's good for like a small 10-20 person company of fairly heavy users, or slightly more if not using heavily.
