This is interesting and i'm already wondering how to fight this war. AI is really useful if used in the right way, like search engines once were. But how do you trick these systems to not profile you? I don't have any chatgpt account and only use the browser. Chatgpt has already told me it fingerprints the session but cant tell its me unless i tell it. Ha ha ... isn't a browser plugin that changes the fingerprint each session going to help? Also, how do i tell the browser to stop dishing out my data e.g. browser version, os version, etc.?

Forgot to say, this is better wth a GPU. You CAN use CPU + RAM, but very slow. Even a 6 or 8GB GPU is OK tho for a small model. The bigger your GPU the better. But a mid range gamer GPU is adequate for many practical purposes like language translation.

I guess this is part of the problem. Hardware costs are ridiculous a.t.m. i'll have to see what i can find on ebay.
