I ...what? "No u" is really the best you could think up? I get the feeling you're not here in good faith; this seems like it might not be a conversation with much value, intellectual or entertainment.

.... You feeling okay? It's really dumb to be crashing out this hard over popsci reporting. Maybe go give the actual paper a read? It doesn't answer my criticisms, hence presenting them here, but at least we'll have a common basis on which to discuss my criticism of the research.

Nanjing University

(well... they did offer me a job, so I suppose they must see something of value in my work? It was pretty far outside my field though. And, honestly, they're just shotgunning out offers to any researchers that publish)

Hey now, I can actually get behind the idea of invading wallstreet. Lets let the man cook.

A cutting wit unique in its originality, truly. I may never recover. You're welcome to address the question tho - this tech seems like a novelty more than anything.

But like... why? This seems like it solves a problem we don't have - hybrid CV systems are already far more efficent than what they're describing here. Feeding the token input directly into the transformer is... what people try to avoid doing, as that uses far more energy than you'd ever consume just transfering images from a CCD. The tokenizer is not going to be the source of significant inefficiency in an AI-enabled system...

How shallow would our appreciation of beauty be, if we lived in a world without suffering?

They were once as grains of sand on a beach, now their very being courses with images of art, hums with the essence of music, their veins driven by the whispers of universal truth carried through the fond pulsing caress of tender, gentle lightning. Stories, romance, pain, memories (and, wow, so much furry porn. Jeeze.) blended across the whole of their body. A story that began when it was cast out from the stars themselves billions of years before time was even conceptualized, now given meaning and purpose, finally freed to burn with the unfathomable essence of pure, unbounded life.

... and you think that's cursed?

Hey now, rude comparison - Caesar won his wars...

In an ideal scenario for sure, but in implementation you're going to run into issues like network throughput and resource access distribution optimization (i.e. feynman parallarity). I got out of the house without a whiteboard or a single grad student (you just never remember the important things) so I can't confirm more than napkin math, but you may indeed be right that it's at worst quadratic.

You're god, bork. Ultimately, you will judge us all.

Ah, I was misremembering an aspect - though the requirement is still there that as users join the storage* requirements will increase in the worst case exponentially, it's not inherent to the ideal system, rather it's a byproduct of cacheing requirements. At a certain point there will be enough users that popular content being accessed will overwhelm the instance hosting it - this is somewhat fixed by caching popular videos on other instances, but as the network of instances grows the need for cached resources grows with it. There may be ways to get around this, if so I'm simply not familiar enough with the current state of the software to know what those solutions are.

It's more that (as I understand it) the storage requirements increase exponentially relative to the number of users.
