    Point 1 isn’t that ludacris if we could outlaw the training of new models. The effort of training them is the largest part.

    GPT4ALL can run models easily, privately and locally on your computer - because the training is done, it’s past tense. All you’re doing when you ask it something locally/offline is remixing it.

      How would you make better models then? Like force everyone to team up so there’s “only” one datacenter? Waiting for techbto catch up?

      I’m genuinely curious as I don’t think any of the big companies are going to stop just like that.

        Hence “if we could outlaw the training of new models” - but I suppose if you love new models that much, you could limit their training to educational institutions who have to propose new models via an ethics boards before training them - much like is done with medical experimentation.

        P.S hahaha I’m getting down votes for saying to outlaw the training of new models, you’re getting upvotes for saying “but how will I get new models?”. What sub even is this?

          A lot of the downvoters in this group aren’t actually in this group. They’re the slop mongers who hunt Lemmy for anybody who says anything negative about LLMbeciles and other digital parrots and downvote them.

          You were getting flak for putting words in my mouth and acting like an edgy teenager.

          I don’t LOVE New models so much!!

          And if you think the world spins around your jurisdiction I can’t do anything for you.

          The newer better models will be built, by your country or some other (China or even Europe), so how to do it the best way was my question.

            Dumb ass you’re on my thread, you’re replying to my comment (the downvoted one)… So no I’ve not got any flak for putting words in your mouth…

            YOU asked about “how will we get new models!!” That was your concern, not me putting words in your mouth …your exact words were:

            “How would you make better models then?”

            Another slop brained AI idiot, worried about the wrong things in life.

      That requires international solidarity. Else they’d just pay off some poor government official in another country to build the DCs there instead

        Yes technically “but a corrupt government just wouldn’t do it” can knock down all suggestions and is the ultimate argument for reenforcing total apathy… If that’s your aim.

        Also, don’t bother responding, because an even more corrupt government would just censor free speech online, so no point you saying anything back. See it’s the ultimate apathy.
