HTML was XML for the web. Nothing to it from a technical perspective.


XHTML was supposed to be revolutionary.


HTML was designed prior to XML fwiw, spinning off from SGML.


Check out BaseTen for performant use of GPUs


Google TPUs, Amazon, a YC funded ASIC/FPGA company, a Chinese Co. all have custom hardware too that might scale well.


Is this because 405b doesn't fit on Groq? If they perform better, I would also have liked to have seen.


When 405b first launched Groq ran it, it's not currently running due to capacity issues though


Seems like a nice abstraction.

Since I see DuckDB mentioned, folks wanting serverless may also be interested in LanceDB, written in Rust, with most features built out for Python.

Side note, I wrote a proof of concept of embeddings generator being handled inside PostgreSQL, independent of the index.

I care a lot about the environment, and worked in climate tech for 7 years. I also am very hopeful for AI's contributions.

When we say that AI will help save the environment, I can see short term gains in things like nuclear energy expansion and improvement, better educational opportunities, robotic labor and other efficiency automations, etc. On ecosystems and biodiversity, I don't see a clear path.

AI can improve our understanding, but a systems collapse requires very complex bio-chemical systems that are all interdependent. Maybe we all live in bubbles of AI controlled environments post Holocene, but we rely on larger earth systems that will be difficult to rebuild post collapse.

Does anyone else worry that AI will not be rapid or sufficiently impactful to deal with ecosystem collapse?


Do you think AI will propose new ideas or regurgitate our ideas that we don't implement? And even if AI proposes new ideas, will we implement them if we don't even implement our own ideas?


Your answer is part of why I am concerned. Maybe new incentives or leverage can be created. Giving AI the power to create new social dynamics seems both too dangerous and necessary.


I also wrote wrote an LLM to Prolog interpreter for a hackathon called "Logical". With a few hours effort I'm sure it could be improved.

I think while LLMs may approach completeness here, it's good to have an interpretable system to audit/verify and reproduce results.


This is really cool!


Thanks! Feel free to reach out.


https://nsq.io/ is also very reliable, stable, lightweight, and easy to use.

    Maybe try posting a picture of the darned thing in use? RN it’s a pile of coral.

        Unfortunately, all contemporaneous photographs of the item in use were lost during the burning of the Library of Alexandria a few centuries later.
