The very notion of IQ reduces the mind to a receptacle for some ineffable thing called 'intelligence'. One may as well have a CQ - Comedy Quotient and start speculating who has a higher GQ - Robin Williams or Dave Chapelle.
As a network engineer I regularly participate and mediate 'vendor support shootouts' between vendors like cisco, juniper, arista, verizon, at&t, and, microsoft - all often amongst each other. It is at times maddeningly frustrating.
Microsoft by far and away is the least responsive in nearly all cases. In one case the project involved thousands of SQL servers and MS was 100% unresponsive - moreover this was not a small customer, but one of microsoft's largest corporate customers. Still nothing but silence. So out with MS for that project. The yearly license fees were well into six figures. Even though MS has a track record of unresponsiveness, the silence was surprising and noteworthy. Why bet money on a horse that doesn't show up.
Sometimes I think people leveraging criticisms of LLMs used ChatGPT 3 years ago and haven't touched one since, except for asking how many r's are in strawberry a year and a half ago.
Yeah, as someone who has gained a lot of interaction skills by playing with the constructivist learning ennvironment called the enneagram, I can attest that it much resembles behaviour characteristic of certain enneatypes.
I have to wonder what edge AI would look like on a laptop. Little super mini Nvidia Jetson? How much added cost? How much more weight for the second and third batteries? And the fourth and fifth batteries to be able to unplug for more than a few minutes?
They're called NPUs and all recent CPUs from Intel, AMD, or Apple have them. They're actually reasonably power efficient. All flagship smartphones have them, as well as several models down the line as well.
IIRC linux drivers are pretty far behind, because no one who works on linux stuff is particularly interested in running personal info like screenshots or mic captures through a model and uploading the telemetry. While in general I get annoyed when my drivers suck, in this particular case I don't care.
Solar at least is a much faster way to add capacity to the grid than coal or natural gas, particularly residential rooftop solar. In a competition with China for AI predominance, trump shot the USA in the foot by deep sixing renewal incentives.
When I was on the team migrating datacenters, we got ahold of tcpdump.exe which didn't need winpcap presumably because it was staticly compiled under cygwin - I'm fairly certain someone didn't write the entire thing including winpcap from scratch.
It was nice because getting anything approved by the windows sysadmin group was like changing the tire on a moving truck.
It was more than a godsend, because when a windows server was plugging into "the wrong vlan" we could just give them the tcpdump command to capture a CDP/LLDP packet and tell us which switch and port the box was physically connected to.
