Before you install, Corrections in the above link :
In brief,
You don't select the .iso in the fist VMware wizard , instead select 'I will install ....Later'
In the second step - Select 1. Windows, 2. Windows 7
** When you click next you will see the VM configuration screen , here select 'Hardware' on the left side to select '.iso' file. This is where you mount ISO.
The rest follow this as minimum system requirement,
    Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster
    RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)

You will need product key: Product Key:   DNJXJ-7XBW8-2378T-X22TX-BKG7J 
You will find this on the .iso download page at the bottom of all language download  listings.
Also keep this all the time, you will need this to update the Windows 8 after install !



Share same settings all devices (you login with live id) feature: Cool !
You will need a Windows a/c Hotmail /yahoo passport, etc to login in always connected mode and same settings all devices mode !

Cruse around the Windows 8.
Hey, I like the transparent Recycle Bin!

(Bye the way use 'Windows Key' to switch between 'Metro mode' to 'Widows mode' or hover mouse on the right hand side wall ,, hm hope you find a way to get around )

LLM on Mobile Phone : Mini Universal data and assistant running on an android smart phone Galaxy S23

  Imagine a world where everyone has access to a mini #OpenAI's #ChatGPT on their mobile phone, answering any question on any topic, right from their local phone memory. No need for internet. This is the future of #LLMs on mobile devices, and it's happening now. #MLC-AI has created a way to install a 3 billion parameter #RedPajam #LLMModel on a #Galaxy #S23 smartphone. This is a powerful #LLM that can generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way. And it's all available on your phone, without the need for an internet connection. This could have a profound impact on people all over the world. Millions of suburban students who don't have access to the internet could now have access to a universal data source that can answer most of their questions. Refugee camps around the world could also benefit from this technology, giving refugees access to information and resources that they might not ot...

Agentic AI growth could make GenAI providers to charge $1000-$2000 per month - #Cathywood , here is how.

      #Cathywood predicts that as the #agenticgenai grows the #GenAI service providers like openai, gemini, Copilot, etc will be able to charge $1000 - $2000 per month to their business customers. And she adds, "this is going to happen". Why this is important: Remember #Cathywood made a monster call in 2018, predicting that Tesla would hit $4,000 in five years. And eventually Tesla hit Wood's price target, with shares closing at $816, or $4,080 on a split adjusted basis (Jan. 2021). How this could happen: #AgenticGenAi means , 1. Integrating a business service with GenAI providers like Gemini/ChatGPT as an agent and make available in the chat interface. 2. Less human interaction and more calls to the GENAI Models. Nothing totally new, its similar to 'Ok google play a song from spotify' 'Alexa, order 8 pack dove on amazon' For example, when booking a flight, instead of navigating a complex travel website, users can simply provide a text prompt...
