No more secrets.
To run the 671B parameter R1, my napkin math was something like 3/4 of a million dollars in hardware. But that (plus the much lower training cost) made this a millionaire’s game rather than a billionaire’s. Plus the distillations do seem better than anything else we have at the smaller sizes at the moment. That said, I’m more looking forward to the first use of deepseek’s methods with google’s Titan architectures.

They’re just setting up a locally run ChatGPT for the US National Laboratories to use. Much like all the software we already use, it’s probably airgapped from launch systems.

More of the energy cost is in training rather than use.
Hence wikipedia’s become a target. Can’t have reliable sources interrupting the flow of bullshit.
On the other hand, AI can also spot obvious errors. And the more stressed out, overworked, understaffed, and generally bombarded departments become, the more people will miss obvious errors.

Which feels poetic.
All the data centers in the US combined use 4% of the electric load, and one of the main upsides to deepseek is that it requires much less energy to train (the main cost).

Fellow Workers,
Today we stand together at a pivotal moment. For too long, we’ve worked tirelessly while watching our wages stagnate and our working conditions deteriorate. We’ve tried reasonable discussion. We’ve attempted negotiations. We’ve presented well-researched proposals for fair compensation and safer working conditions. Yet our voices remain unheard.
The time has come to exercise our legal right to strike – a right secured through the sacrifice and solidarity of workers who came before us. This isn’t just about wages. This is about dignity in our workplace. This is about securing a future where we can provide for our families without compromising our health and well-being.
Look around you. Every person here has a story of overtime without compensation, of safety concerns dismissed, of struggling to make ends meet while executives receive bonuses. We’re not asking for luxury – we’re demanding basic fairness.
Our demands are clear:
We don’t take this step lightly. We understand the sacrifice a strike requires from each of us. But remember – every labor right we enjoy today, from the eight-hour workday to workplace safety regulations, was won through collective action.
We’ve established our strike fund. We’ve secured legal representation. We’ve documented every instance of unfair labor practices. We are prepared.
To our colleagues who are worried: your right to strike is protected by law. Any retaliation is illegal. We stand together, and we will defend each other.
To management: we remain open to good-faith negotiations. We prefer dialogue to conflict. But we will not back down from our fundamental right to fair treatment and dignity at work.
When we strike, we strike with purpose. Our picket lines will be peaceful but determined. We will maintain professionalism even as we assert our rights. We will show that we are not just workers – we are the backbone of this company.
Remember: our unity is our strength. Every worker who stands with us makes our voice stronger. Every person who joins our cause brings us closer to justice.
The choice is yours, but know this: change never comes from waiting. It comes from workers standing together and saying: enough.
Stand with us. The time is now.
In solidarity, [Your Union Representatives]
