Everyone is really overlooking the fact the Steam Machine has CEC. It's genuinely a major feature for a console like experience and no one else can replicate it.
Make way for the first prebuilt gaming PC with SteamOS installed! With Valve updating SteamOS installation image last week, MetaPCs launched Steamroller, a $1,299 prebuilt with a Ryzen 5 9600X and RX 7600 running SteamOS! Via: videocardz

📢 Open-sourcing the Sarvam 30B and 105B models! Trained from scratch with all data, model research and inference optimisation done in-house, these models punch above their weight in most global benchmarks plus excel in Indian languages. Get the weights at Hugging Face and AIKosh. Thanks to the good folks at SGLang for day 0 support, vLLM support coming soon. Links, benchmark scores, examples, and more in our blog - sarvam.ai/blogs/sarvam-30b-1…

New data insight: How does OpenAI allocate its compute? OpenAI spent ~$7 billion on compute last year. Most of this went to R&D, meaning all research, experiments, and training. Only a minority of this R&D compute went to the final training runs of released models.

If you ever want to post a banger, just say something flattering about designers. They're so starved of appreciation that they'll spam it in their company slacks until every person has read it.

Why is there so much despondency in India when there's 8% growth? Why are VCs on Christmas break in Blr so excited - but lifetime denizens making a beeline for immigrant visas? Why does the very mention of taxes give rashes? A quick 3-tier model of India explaining this:
