Is it one second later? Timestamps are in adjacent seconds, but two flips could be as close as a millisecond.

Currently, models don't improve much with more compute, Grok is good example. DeepSeek is another example where training cost was modest.
And the last big step up was using distilled reasoning traces of other models (i.e. a lot of reasoning data).

You can expose a dog to the same amount of training and he won't reach the same level, not with all data in the world. Our evolutionary algorithms (encoded in DNA) are just better at developing intelligence.

2027 timeline isn't happening, already saturation is happening for reasoning models. Limitation is not compute, it's input training data.
AGI will take time if this path can ever get to it (looking at the structure of our brains, it's not as simple as just growing and retraining the model).
Thus this is completely idiotic. They will annoy everyone. And then why should America control who buys GPU, why shouldn't it be e.g. Netherlands? They are more critical in the semiconductor supply chain than USA.

There is always somewhere the line has to be drawn. Either allow imperfection with human mistakes, or allow absolute determination, but one that changes what seems as a perfectly clean situation bar the smallest detail |ruining it" that can be seen only on camera.

They should trademark and copyright the license and clearly state that it is not allowed to modify nor extend them unless in ways compatible with the license.
Otherwise it is possible to smash together a text you want to pass as open source and call AGPL, but it actually isn't one.

No, Linux should follow evolution of programming languages. I never wrote a line of code in Rust, but I can see the appeal. Being stricter, it forces programmer to apply rigor and formalism in writing the code and that code will be more secure in the long term, both later when someone tries to modify it or just by bitrot, i.e. with the risk of other changes in the codebase creating vulnerabilities in this code that were previously not possible.
There will always be resistance and changes can be postponed, but not endlessly. What would be left of the community if most of the world and industry moves to Rust or something else and there is a lack of interest in what becomes a "dinosaur" language?

And will not snitch on you.

But they can't take over global operations like that, there are servers in Singapore and Malaysia if I'm not mistaken. And while they can do a hostile takeover of US part (if they manage to keep admins and experts on how to operate it) but without developers and all the source code (+ training data etc.) that comes from Chinese engineers they will not be able to update and improve it.

Even if they learn from a pirated source, the knowledge is legit and free to use it (with trade secrets it's a bit different, since that isn't public material).

Just please stop using that term. Competition or whatever you call it but it's not war.

Chinese can also freely read published science papers on arxiv and learn from that. Is that a problem? This is how science works. It's a worldwide effort and everyone benefits from it.
If US would prefer to weaponize it and restrict it to their selected circle of allies, its science is guaranteed to become much weaker than it is now.
China in is one sixth of the world population, there is no shortage of individual ingenuity. Either you let them contribute there (they already have good universities), or bring them here. Fundamental math is something that is quite safe from the national security point of view and doesn't warrant excluding foreign talent from it. Of course, they won't be going to Los Alamos.

Strawman.
There is no reason and no utility in making fake accusations on most of those scientists, it has nothing to do with China and has no positive effect on problems often associated with China.
It is caused by overzealous clerks which must find someone to prosecute to justify their job, get a promotion etc.
Reflects US legal system where predatory attorneys go for maximum conviction rate, often using tactics such as coercing the accused to make a plea deal to avoid the risk of spending decades in prison.

X is popular as usual and I even hear about Bluesky recently, but never heard anything about Threads apart from their statistics, they must be inflated.

Nothing to add except insults? Retard.
