If you are browsing Piefed you are probably using about 10-20% of your computer's resources (if it is a computer capable of running a 4B model).

When you question the model and it pegs your system out, that is between 5 and 10 TIMES more resource utilization and power waste just to have a question answered that you could have taken the time to research, improve your own critical thinking skills, and learned something without changing your utilization at all.

Not counting the training debt.
