Guys PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, download it all. The only way to preserve information is to copy it until 1 survives

I am just a poor fucking Iranian with shitass internet and no money to buy a NAS but I'll try to hawk some part of it as much as I can

download "LM Studio" and you can download models and run them through it

I recommend something like an older Mistral model (FOSS model) for beginners, then move on to Mistral Small 24B, QwQ 32B and the likes

Stalemate means Ukraine is fucked because a war of attrition potentially without US support doesn't look good for them at all

Like, it's amazing they managed to hold shit together for all this time and all, but damn they're looking pretty fucked ngl

First, please answer, do you want everything FOSS or are you OK with a little bit of proprietary code because we can do both

Basically? Wartime propaganda

Ukraine has been doing individual, small wins like this and they obviously toot their horn when it happens

But on a large scale, Ukraine has been slowly losing ground

Fuck ClosedAI

I want everyone here to download an inference engine (use llama.cpp) and get on open source and open data AI RIGHT NOW!

I AM acknowledging the fact that they're advanced, however, just like thay French artillery system in Ukraine, you will often see "cool shit" wünderwaffen shit the bed in actual combat

Pavement princess vs. workhorse, tale as old as time

OK you walk the walk I respect that

If you could be arsed, it's entirely possible to train an LLM with 10 PCs using strictly open source and ethical datasets available on huggingface (although not something that is going to beat SOTA models)

That is a one time cost. Do you add the cost of every single watt of electricity ever generated, the cost of making factories, extracting materials and so on, to the "climate impact" of electrical rail service or EVs?

This is just hysteria, I'm going to be absolutely deadass with you

Also, you theoretically could make an LLM entirely on your own PC, it'd just take a bit of time

Nah they're kinda shit actually

Like, it's only "cool" in the sense wünderwaffen is cool. Yet, wünderwaffen costed Nazis the war, and it's the same tale again

Sorry but this shit is riling up lost airframes to accidents without an active war and under perfect maintenance, I don't think it's going to hold steady in a war AT ALL
