And then only the criminals would have them. You know because criminals tend to break the law so making a tool that they used to break the law illegal wouldn't really impaire them.
Criminals don't own datacenters running the models that actually pose a threat.
Mid-high gaming pc money will have you running near-frontier level models locally.
train tho?
Nah, trains are shit at AI
yeah it's always "we can run them on our gpus!"
yeah uh who trained it? how many gigawatts and thousand gallons of water did it take for inference?
near frontier levels of stolen shit, which is fine, it's all stolen, but holy hell don't act like it didn't require idiotic amounts of precompiling and a moral ambivalence to the stolen corpus.
Or maybe they're too stupid to know lol
DiLoCo
this would be amazing.. if you could convince people to use it lol.
as is, it's a retort without meaning, it doesn't change the situation if nobody uses it.
mhm
No does anybody else, but apparently they have access to them well we wouldn't even be talking about it.
There's a lot of people in here who don't know about open weight models that can run on an old 7900XTX.
The data center part of LLMs is how they're going to try to make money off of LLMs. The technology to use it for nefarious uses is already loose in the world.
still built on theft. stop acting like running your own model means it wasn't built on top of giant fucking theft.
I mean yeah, you're right. Guess you missed the point...
No, you're simply oblivious to the fact that it's all built on theft. someone has to compute the inference, requiring tremendous amounts of resources, built on theft. you're not going to keep the llm and destroy the data center, even if you steal the fucking model someone had to compute it.
but cute distractions kiddo
Your reading comprehension is lacking
right up there with your critical thinking skills.
You should reread the thread and hopefully you can see that you are missing the point. Even if you are technically correct. Your comment doesn't contribute to the thread. Which is why they are downvoted
ah. and yours?
lemmy users will miss any point you make, no matter how obvious, if it lets them jockey for attention.
it's fascinating that you're ignoring the premise while validating their ignorance.
childish, but fascinating.
Tripling down on that whoosh.
Thats a level of dedication you don't see often these days.
lol use all your alt accounts to neg me I'm into it
See, this is the dedication im talking about.
You see more then one person disagreeing with you and suddenly it's a bunch of alt accounts all ganging up on you.
It probably didn't even enter your mind that you might be wrong.
Thats the kind of dedication to sub-par thought processes you just don't see everyday.
Cursory check of account histories to see if they show any signs of overlap?
Hah, no, must be a conspiracy.
Re-read the comment chain, just in case you might have missed something?
Hell no, single user conspiracy against you is the obvious cause.
This is the kind of single minded pursuit of the "truth" that the internet is lacking nowadays.
I'd give you a slow clap but with your level of demonstrated perception, you might think in trying to attack you or something.
Anyway, good luck with life, sounds like it might be a bit of a struggle.
Edit: I realise that's probably a lot of text for you to read in one sitting, don't push yourself, if it's too much, just reply with an excuse and block me. That way nobody will know. Mental health is important
ok buddy don't get excited and use up all your words for the week
There you go, I knew you could do it, well done.
you forgot to randomly BOLD a bunch of garbage because even you don't believe this drivel.
Aw, so close, you were supposed to block me.
All you'll get from me is words you don't understand in sentences too long for you to keep in context.
Tell you what, you've been working hard, i'll help you with this last bit.
jfc are you still crying? what a baby
Of course every criminal has easy access to large data centers, and stuff. Except for the federal three letter criminals, of course.
