> But… I suppose Zuckerberg knows what he wants, which is AI slopware and not truly groundbreaking foundation models.
When did they make groundbreaking foundation models though? DeepMind and OpenAI have done plenty of revolutionary things, what did Meta AI do while being led by LeCun?
By the way, people might think this has to do with communism but it’s cultural and way before the 20th century. Red is associated with happiness and celebration.
The (blood-)red flag as an anti-monarchist symbol originates in the French Revolution, was adopted by the Bolshevik faction (“the Reds”) in the Russian Civil War, and spread from there.
And ironically the news networks in 2000 chose red to show Bush’s electoral votes vs Gore, and thus we retain the notion of Red States and Blue States, even though it’s backwards.
It's backwards? Republicans are actively trying to install a single party authoritarian government modelled after the Chinese system, they're as red as it gets in America.
