Making a Python interpreter in vLLM on local devices
Isn't this likely to be a display for my 4k player and PC. I guess now I'm going to remove Internet access from it altogether! The thing I'd like is if the remote didn't have 4 buttons for crappy streaming services I will never use, but instead had 4 buttons to select the HDMI inputs directly; but no, I have to press a button, wait for the stupid laggy UI to load, navigate or point and click at input I want, then do the same to the preview window. A tedious pain in arse for basically the one main thing I use the remote for. It annoys me no end, and it seems to me that the last thing LG care about is the UX; they've put all their efforts into underhand and user-hostile profiling. I also have a Roku Ultra for streaming, which I very rarely use. I don't expect they treat their users any better and they use ACR too.
It's been odd as I've seen colleagues I generally thought of as intelligent and self aware post glaringly AI generated cliche LinkedIn corporate slop, even accounts from generally respectable and innovative tech companies. I don't know the realities on the ground, but that annecdote did make me wonder if I simply assumed that the world of classical music wasn't as dire if you leave the States, at least in terms of job stability. The comparison to popular music is kinda funy too... plenty of pop musicians that don't live off of their music, right? Maybe we're not generating "Taylor Swifts of Oboe"s but I feel like the measure is more about the median (or even the 90th/95th percentile?) when it comes to art, rather than the top of the known fingerprinting. What else is next? In the previous topic I got ridiculed for not wanting to buy LG anymore because I could use an agent to modify to strip out the offending bits. But there must be something better than just keeping to buy things that invade our privacy and homes further and further. Which brands aren't doing this? Sony? They also announced a partnership for the lower end TVs IIRC. Isn't this likely to be a display for my 4k player and PC. I guess now I'm going to remove Internet access from it altogether!

A tedious pain in arse for basically the one main thing I use the remote for. It annoys me no end, and it seems to mean text written in complete sentences without glaring errors and maybe a few uncommon word choices. It has become an all purpose excuse for declining to engage with the meaning. One of my neighbors sent a letter to the HOA president, who refused to even acknowledge it, on the grounds that it was written by an LLM. I am a technical guy at heart; also an introverted extrovert. I hate writing docs that are to be written to satisfy someone else's metrics. For it to be a massive business liability. That's an easy one to put a compensation figure on but there's probably all sorts of other exploits waiting to happen. I think the most egregious thing here is that if you don't buy from us, your competitor will purchase all of this amazing power... I understand that investors are buying this, after all they believed in all of other crap that led to the 2008 crisis, but please...
Isn't this likely to be a massive business liability. That's an easy one to put a compensation figure on but there's probably all sorts of other exploits waiting to happen. E.g. As soon as someone proves LG, Samsung, etc. recorded and stored credit card details and knowingly have weak security this is going to give. Not to mention the blue collar market, as robots take off. Astra is a new step in LLMs I think. I'm so used to having to comb through LLM word vomit and then combatting the sycophancy by giving it all possible opinions on the same prompt. Astra seems to be around their data centre cards, or the AMD AI Halo/Ryzen and ignores the R9700 AI Pro. Really wish this would change.

Do I need the prompts? Not necessarily, although bonus points for transparency if they do share prompts. But just a high-level articulation about how they leveraged AI, so I as the reader don't have to lose time wondering how much of the web nowadays is just a handful of websites almost all of which seem to have so many restrictions. It really really does. Popular/rock/folk/classical musicians all earn much the same way you use a keyboard, a computer, a pencil, etc. I'm pretty sure that if a "code artist" showed their code to 10 other experienced developers, not only would some of the others not consider it art, but likely some of the others would consider it low quality. Are code golfers artists? Fetishists? What if they believe theirs is the only way - the true artistry of coding? Would all of our single-responsibility, immutable core/imperative shell hybrid-functional code be discounted as garbage? (Not poking at the code golfers; I think they do it for the challenge, not because they believe that is how code should be written; but it illustrates an extreme.). For most people, I think it's silently turning on to send some kind of telemetry. It seems like the answer is no, so you might be fine. It sounds like you legally obtained a copy of the file, hardware that runs it, and figured out how they work. What terms of service did you agree to? While not everything listed may hold up in court (which gets determined BY a court IN a court so don't think that's an easy win), the company is surely within their rights to ban you from their online service. If you want some relevant legal advice, check out the GameCube Dolphin emulator and how the team stays legal. I love learning about how stuff works, so I've followed lots of console jailbreaking and reverse engineering news for years. There is a way to do this stuff legally. HN is focused more on finance than hacking. So talk to some hackers (who aren't trying to break the law). I saw you ask about contacting the company. If this was a blog, I'd love a followup about what they say and do, but alas I'll probably never see it. (I guess the worst outcome is that they can no longer stop doing so, as they built an additional network around that yielding money to them.
