If you have a high end GPU, or lots of RAM you can run some good quality LLMs offline. I recommend watching Matthew Berman for tutorials (there are some showing paid hosting aswell).
Check out /r/localllama. Preferably you need a Nvidia you with >= 24 GB VRAM but it also works with a cpu and loads of normal RAM, if you can wait a minute or two for a lengthy answer. Loads of models to choose from, many with no censorship at all. Won’t be as good as chatgptv4, but many are close to gpt3.
I think KoboldAI runs locally, but like many current AI tools it’s a pain in the ass to install, especially if you’re on Linux, especially if you’re using AMD GPUs. I wonder if we’ll see some specialized AI related cards to slot into our pci ports or something. Not a whole lot of necessary options to fill them nowadays anyway. I’d also be interested in local AI voice changers too. Maybe even packaged like a Roland VT-4 voice transformer that sits between your mic & whatever audio other audio interface you might be using, where you just throw the trained voice models onto the device and it does all the real time computing for you.
I’m sure things get more refined over the next years though.
I’ve only watched recently without trying to build much myself for ML. I have the hardware but idk if I want to leave my bulky gaming machine on regularly just to run ML operations. Having a more dedicated piece of hardware to handle it makes the idea much more attractive to me.
Now I just have to learn everything. And then learn how to integrate a locally hosted TPU into the process.
Yeah, those seem cool, although probably still not something for my inept ass to use but it’s nice to see products like these starting to pop up. Some are also not too insanely priced either. Anyone who did some benchmarks comparing them to just regular consumer gpus yet? I couldn’t find anything.
By design, because they don’t want some basement guy launching skynet.
I have to agree, I trust a handful of big shops, some of which could actually be killed by ethics people against the wishes of investors, far more than the entire internet. It still might not be enough, but there is no applying breaks whatsoever if anyone can take the next step.
Which oligarch? I mean, yes there’s definitely a degree of trusting “the right sort” there, but capitalism isn’t a team sport and they’re not a team. Honestly one of them might launch skynet anyway, if that’s how the technology grows, but a few people are theoretically able to agree not to do something, while legions never can.
So do you think it should all be open sourced, then? And if so, are you a skeptic of “AI alignment”, or even “AI safety”?
I’d like this offline. Why are all the good chatbots proprietary online-only software?

Just played with it the other week, they have some models that run on less extreme hardware too https://ollama.ai/
They need insane amounts of compute
So? OpenAI aren’t the only ones with large datacenters.

It would actually be pretty cool to see TPUs you can just plug in. They come stock in a lot of Google products now, I think.
Like these?
Oh!! Awesome, thanks!

They don’t want somebody toppling an oligarch, you mean.
