Tesla Hit With Another Major Recall

gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-10-23 00:53:47

Tesla is recalling 7,301 Model Y SUVs produced in 2025, following identification of a software defect in the driver’s side window’s automatic protection system. The recall, issued by Australia’s Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts, warns that the window may close with excessive force if it fails to detect obstructions, posing a risk of injury. The latest recall is a perfect example of the dual-edge of automotive digitization, becaus

Latam-GPT: The Free, Open Source, and Collaborative AI of Latin America

wired.com Anna Lagos 2025-10-23 13:00:00

The supercomputing infrastructure at the University of Tarapacá (UTA) in Arica, Chile, is a fundamental pillar for Latam-GPT. With a projected investment of $10 million, the new center has a cluster of 12 nodes, each equipped with eight state-of-the-art NVIDIA H200 GPUs. This capacity, unprecedented in Chile and the region more broadly, not only enables large-scale model training in the country for the first time, it also encourages decentralization and energy efficiency.

Ask HN: Best foundation model for CLM fine-tuning?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-19 18:08:40

Hi, I have a largish (2 GB) corpus of curated, high-quality text in some low-resource language, and I want to build a model that would provide an advanced "auto complete" service for writers. I'm thinking of taking a decoder-only model such as Llama, Mistral or Gemma, slice off the embedding layers (which are based on unneeded languages), create new ones (perhaps initialized based on a FastText model trained on the corpus), paired with a tokenizer newly created from my corpus, then train the m

Ford and the Birth of the Model T

news.ycombinator.com Brian Potter 2025-10-20 06:52:48

This is an excerpt from my forthcoming book, The Origins of Efficiency, out September 23rd. Ford’s status as a large-volume car producer began with the predecessor to the Model T: the Model N, a four-cylinder, two-seater car initially priced at $500. At the time, the average car in the US cost more than $2,000, and it seemed nearly unimaginable that a car with the capabilities of the Model N could cost so little. In 1906, the year the Model N was introduced, Ford sold 8,500 of them, making the

OpenAI is testing "Thinking effort" for ChatGPT

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-10-23 04:26:42

OpenAI is working on a new feature called the Thinking effort picker for ChatGPT. With the Thinking effort picker, you can choose how hard ChatGPT can think. When a model thinks harder, it doesn't necessarily mean a great response. You might not want the model to think harder when you're not sure what to do tomorrow. However, you may want the model to think harder when you're working on a complex topic, such as econometrics, bond valuation, healthcare and so on. As spotted on X, OpenAI is te

Earth models can predict the planet’s future but not their own

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-23 04:00:12

In the 1960s, meteorologist Edward Lorenz was running weather simulations on an early computer system when he realized that a small rounding difference led to extremely divergent weather predictions. He later called this idea the butterfly effect to communicate that small changes in initial conditions, like a butterfly flapping its wings in Nepal, could produce wildly different outcomes, like rain in New York. But better understanding those initial conditions and how the biological world couple

AI models need a virtual machine

AI Models Need a Virtual Machine Applications using AI embed the AI model in a framework that interfaces between the model and the rest of the system, providing needed services such as tool calling, context retrieval, etc. Software for early chatbots took user input, called the LLM, and returned the result to the user; essentially just a read-eval-print loop.
