You misunderstand. The covered model threshold includes flops used in the base model, not just amount used for fine-tuning. So in a few years, nearly all significant models and all fine tunes of them will be covered.

Conda Base Environment Perfect for Projects and Teaching

The conda base env is perfect for those. Having used it for all my projects, and most of my students using it too, it's been (on the whole) a delight to work with.

Building Consistent Data Science Platforms for Students

I discourage my data science students from using environments, docker containers, or anything like that for their work, but instead learn to create a great platform they can use consistently across all their projects.

Integrated AI Working Environment Over Reproducibility
By
–
Sure. For a scientist, financial analyst, etc, what you really want is your own beautifully curated working environment that you use every day for everything you do. You don't want reproducible. You want low friction, consistent, integrated, …

Not too much reason to use mambaforge over miniforge nowadays, since libmamba is default in conda now.

Lying about it isn't reasonable. How can it be debated properly without telling the truth?

Open Source Developers Face Legal Risks From State AI Bill
By
–
True, but those behind the bill are claiming it covers anyone doing business in the state. I'm not sure that's true, or legal, but I wouldn't want to be the open source dev that has to deal with that in court.

Regulatory Thresholds Could Eliminate Open Source AI Models
By
–
Once models have reached the FLOPs threshold in a few years, the mathematically impossible requirements this bill puts on devs means that no open source models could meet them, so we'll all be entirely reliant on big tech's commercial closed offerings.

SB1047 Blocks Open Source AI Fine-Tuning Development
By
–
I used to be in the "benefit of the doubt" camp, but can no longer — so lemme be clear:
this is quite simply a lie. Those pushing SB1047 *know* that nearly all open source AI devs rely on fine-tuned models, which *are* blocked by this bill.
