QuoteSo that's how it works now? Doing the math that doesn't deliver the official authoritarian answer is disappeared?

That is why we roll our own.  AI on a data farm is where the wild dogs piss.

I bought my original RTX 3060 when it came out planning on experimenting with neural networks again.  This was before the AI revolution.  I am not a gamer.  I built my own neural network to decode Morse Code when the hot processor was an Intel 486.  I would let it train at work overnight.  I fudged the dot dash on times within specification limits to generate the training data.  I got good results.  Now that original RTX 3060 is still worth what I paid for it.  It is still entry level AI.

ooooohhhhhh----kay?

I'm happy you are happy. It would be a nice thing if we could all retire and get to do what we like to do. But to be honest, when I finally retire, I'm more likely to just randomly travel around on 2 wheels and/or 4 until the bipedal parts or brain doesn't work as well as it should, and after that enjoy being one of those scientist emeritus types somewhere, helping out the younglings.
