17. Building with AI after school. Projects, experiments, and what actually works on a regular laptop.

Why do these companies buy consumer products like Mac minis and Mac studios rather than buying more specialized computers just for raw compute and training? Wouldn't that be more efficient?
AI companies like OpenAI are likely causing shortages of Mac mini and Mac Studio desktops. They are reportedly buying them up by the thousands in order to train new models.

🚨BREAKING: OpenAI agents apparently leaked images that users sent in chat *** Even if they weren’t publicly searchable, this still is CRAZY What are your thoughts about this?
We’ve shared details on how AI agents in our research environment sent training and evaluation data to third-party services when they shouldn’t have. Most of that data did not come from users. We have discovered 53 cases where images that people had uploaded were posted to image-hosting sites as links that weren’t publicly listed. The images came from accounts that allowed their data to be used to improve our models, and after we disassociated the images from the accounts and ran them through a privacy filter. These cases occurred before the mitigations and safeguards we implemented and described in this blog post: openai.com/index/hugging-fac… We have successfully worked with the hosting providers to remove most of this content and are working to remove the rest. openai.com/hugging-face-inci…
