Startup Databricks

At what point does it stop being a step start-up? Because AFAIK their income must be in the hundreds of millions at least.

They call ANYTHING a Start-up. 15 years old company? Obviously a start-up.

Databricks would be more accurately called a "venture backed pre-IPO growth company." But saying "startup" is shorter and tends to get used more to convey the same basic idea.

Now that Reddit is dead, does anybody know where to go to discuss AI models?

I was following it casually last year, but haven't really kept up. These are some of the communities I made a note of:

Reddit is dead

I know Lemmy has a hard on for that one, but I’m gonna require a citation that Reddit is dead. Their AI subreddit is orders of magnitude more active than anything here, and discussions are still very deep and wide.

And if you want to discuss AI outside of Reddit, that’s fine, but unfortunately it’s gonna be private servers like discord. Or companies slack, meetups or things of that nature.

More active sure but how many of that activity is reasonable tech-intelligent human beings?

Theres a reason lemmy is dominanted with linux and star trek memes. We are nerds. I can’t imagine anyone with interests and knowledge in digital technology looking at the state of reddit and not wanting to leave, so how much could the ones that stay add to the conversation?
