Is https://morphe.software/ the official site?
I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as @qaz@lemmy.ml until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in systemd/Linux, FOSS, and Selfhosting.

Technology@lemmy.ml•80% of U.S startups JUST switched to Chinese AI... (In silence)English
2·6 days agoIndeed, that argument doesn’t really work. I suspect the argument will be that they’re untrustworthy and will give a distorted view of reality with subtle propaganda shown with a video of someone asking non open weights Chinese models about Tianamen Square or something.
Another approach is that they will form a cartel for running US inference focused datacenters and will pivot to selling services using it.

1·6 days agoMaybe not as good as Claude, but they are good enough, and open-source, and free. The US market is going to learn the hard way why open-source curbstomps greedy bullshit.
Correct, the American frontier models Claude Opus, GPT 5.4, GPT 5.5, and Gemini 3 Pro still score better (while costing significantly more), but the runner ups are all Chinese models.
Then it’ll just come from Germany or France or elsewhere. It doesn’t take millions of dollars to train a good model, despite these US companies pretending that it does.
Well, it does. Deepseek-R1 cost $6 million and that was considered to be very cheap. Europe only really has Mistral’s models, Proton’s Lumo and several models that focus on transparency, ethically sourced training data, and supposedly better local language support (OpenEuroLLM, GPT-NL), but they’re by far not as good as other models and I don’t expect them to be for quite some time.

92·6 days agoI’ve said this before. The Chinese models are significantly better and will outcompete the models from the US, it was just a matter of people realizing that.
My other prediction, being that they will lobby for tariffs or banning Chinese models outright also seems to be coming true.
A Dark-Money Campaign Is Paying Influencers to Frame Chinese AI as a Threat
Build American AI, a nonprofit linked to a super PAC bankrolled by executives at OpenAI and Andreessen Horowitz, is funding a campaign to spread pro-AI messaging and stoke fears about China.
I do wonder how Europe is going to react. Will they just focus on their home grown Mistral or will they consider Chinese open weight models? I feel like the EU is quite wary of anything Chinese and that many people won’t fully comprehend the actual security risk and that they will initially dismiss are avoid them, but they can’t ignore it forever. Qwen 3.6 35B which can be ran at home is already leaving Mistral’s latest models in the dust.

61·19 days agoPeople only read the title, not the article
You can’t require reading the article before someone vote/comment, but what if communities could enable “ponder voting” where users can only vote 30 seconds after viewing the post? This would prevent people from scrolling by from voting, but people who at least slightly skim the article first won’t be affected.
Probably not viably due to it having to be supported by all platforms, but just a thought.
EDIT: It could work by returning a JWT with a post ID and time when fetching the post and having the vote endpoint support providing it. Although, I can also see it being a bit annoying and being trivially bypassed by adding some code to the client.

Assuming reliability is the priority I would suggest going with Tailscale Funnels or a cheap VPS acting as intermediary.
I don’t have a lot of experience with dealing with GCNAT, but perhaps you could look into some solution with UPnP or RFC 6887.
