Linux@programming.dev•Ubuntu Linux Will Begin Landing AI Features Throughout The Next Year

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Beginner Spanish learning recommendation, that aren't duolingo? (YouTube, app, website or whatever)
1·9 days agoyeah mistral is weak like that, I would say they’re at least a year away from chatgpt and claude but they just don’t have the compute
I would recommend to use AI for basic games like translate sentence, anki style flash cards, fill in the sentence, eg. unlike duolingo it won’t annoy the hell out of you with ads and energy

1·10 days agoso the irony is that you guys are hallucinating an answer confidently, AI is really good at translation and language
https://www.deepl.com/en for example is far better than google translate was because they leapt onto ML/AI earlier
If you don’t want to straight up use Mistral/EuroLLM which are trained on European languages:
The company, which launched two years ago, released on Tuesday Mistral Large 3, which the startup claims maintains the same level of performance in “a large number of languages,” particularly European ones.
“Most AI labs focus on their native language, but Mistral Large 3 was trained on a wide variety of languages, making advanced AI useful for billions who speak different native languages,” the company said in a press release.
If you don’t want to directly use a chatbot there’s also https://morpheem.org/ and https://languatalk.com/try-langua which uses AI but builds it around the games specifically, vs just straight up telling the AI bot what to do

15·11 days agotbh if you just use the free version of duolingo i don’t think you can do many lessons now, the energy runs out after like 2-3 lessons max
im learning french so i use it just as a daily reminder to do something in french but outside of it, there should be loads of music and podcasts and audiobooks on spotify that you can use, i can’t be specific but there is things like news in slow french that surely must exist for spanish
if you have a decent video card with 8gb vram can look into lm studio with eurollm and run your own chatbot locally
can say things like, i am an a1 spanish learner, give me a word in English to translate to spanish and tell me if i get it right or wrong
give me a sentence in spanish to translate into english etc
mistral.ai is your best bet if you want something online, they are a french company but do a lot with european languages
hellotalk is good if you want to listen in on people learning to speak but the quality of audio depends on the persons mic quality so might be better for later in learning journey
there’s tons of stuff, best is usually just to seek out books/music/sites and do your best to spend as much of your day learning, the more time you do the faster you learn but it is tough! good luck!

Degrowth@slrpnk.net•Australia faces pivotal moment as traditional economic model starts to fail
3·14 days ago“For the past two years, the playbook has been simple: raise interest rates, slow demand, to bring inflation down. But next week’s CPI lands at a time when inflation is no longer being driven purely by demand.”
This was already argued during Russian invasion of Ukraine after the nordstream was blown up and Europe went on a blitz buying up all the worlds coal and gas supplies forcing massive increases in energy prices, the question was what does raising the interest rate do to help reduce the demand for something that is a staple
“(The CPI data) is a test of whether the current strategy still works or whether Australia is heading into a period in which inflation remains elevated while growth slows anyway.
No it’s not, if it’s higher because of the oil crisis then it’s higher because of the oil crisis and the decision to move towards renewables continues to be confirmed to be the right one, to reduce inflation, to increase growth etc

The USA is in a unique financial situation as the worlds reserve currency which allows them to borrow pretty much endlessly (because other countries want their money), bit of a quick video on it here:

140·23 days agoPS: If it were legal, I’d advocate for someone firebombing his house, but it’s illegal so I strongly advocate against someone firebombing his house.
Why would you firebomb his house? Businesses can hire and fire who they like so long as it’s within the regulations?

Green Energy@slrpnk.net•This state’s power prices are plummeting as it nears 100% renewables
0·3 months agoThe biggest impact on SA power prices right now is the wild price fluctuations, because the power price ceiling is $23,000 and the floor is -$1000 it means that it only takes a few hours at the ceiling to completely blow average prices up
And sadly we won’t be able to write this article at the end of the summer quarter because SA had a major heatwave that lasted a week:
South Australia endures record-breaking heat
Minimum of 34 degrees overnight
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dKOp6d6dvo
Which meant a boatload of air conditioners on 24x7 which meant a ton of power draw on the grid so it maxed out for ages

So yeah a painful one coming up





Why are you offended being called a slowpoke using slowpoke OS?
I use it on my server because of this reason
Its been dead according to linux purists since 2011 when they went to Unity over Gnome or KDE so ignore them :P
