Tweet exchange in which a photo of Anne Hathaway is posted by @TheRoyalSerf, to which user @VvSchweetz24 replies "@grok...do your thing.

@Grok replies: Anne Hathaway isn't Jewish; she was raised Catholic but left the church. She married Adam Shulman (who is Jewish) in 2012 and celebrates Jewish holidays with their kids. SHe's played Jewish roles, like in "Armageddon Time."

But for the distilled model you don’t need a data centre. I agree 5m is a huge amount for many, but for organisations it’s a much more practical amount than the previously quoted costs for the big models.

What DeepSeek has just done is approach the performance of a flagship model from OpenAI using modest hardware and a very smart training approach. It screws with the idea that (a) you need a data centre to compete, (b) bigger is always better, and (c) that closed source AI is going to be viable

Have transferred the turkey to the fridge. Hoping to avoid another year like the one where I forgot to defrost it and was outside with a bucket of water at 4am.

Ben Eater I create tutorial-style videos about electronics, computer architecture, networking, and various other technical subjects.

Stuff is very busy at the moment, so why is my brain telling me to order the bits for an 8 bit breadboard computer? I do not have time, brain!
