  • Yeah, no, that is not what the article says. AlphaChip is better at component/module placement in terms of connection length between them.

    Not to say that that isn’t cool. But it is not recursive. That would imply that the chip with shorter connection length improves the models performance significantly, which they do not claim at all. Because it would quickly reach diminishing returns.

    There is a thousand things that go into making chips. Many will benefit from the automatic optimization of such algorithms. But this doesn’t suddenly give you a new manufacturing node or anything comparable out of thin air. Just a marginal improvement on existing design.


  • Either electro-chemically in batteries, but they might not get energy dense enough for seasonal storage.

    Or chemically by creating Hydrogen, Methane or Ammonia. Those are very energy dense and except for Hydrogen easy to store with existing infrastructure. Currently it is just prohibitively expensive, because the net efficiency is bad, especially for Methane and Ammonia.

    So without an Oracle I can’t say which it will be, but one or more of those will work if the world is committed to net zero.



  • To me that is the problem and why I’ll probably cancel with this price hike. I don’t want more. I got YT Premium for YouTube, mostly to support creators, cause fuck watching Ads. But I have to pay for Music, Podcasts and whatever other garbage they try to stuff in there. It was the same with Prime. I don’t want to watch your stupid series, I just want free shipping, twitch prime and occasionally an old movie.

    Sorry for the rant but these stupid subscription “bundles” are so annoying. The whole ecosystem is becoming shittier every year.
