"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

From his latest article:

One of my sources has come forward and brought me a story that will possibly burst the AI bubble. The reason they brought this to me is that I’ve shown — and will continue to show — that I actually give a shit about this industry and the people in it. If you’re wondering what the story is, know that it’s the information I’ve wanted for years, delivered as I have always wanted it, and I will treat it with the reverence it deserves. Imagine what the worst possible thing for me to get would be and you’re probably close.

I must say I'm pretty excited.

There's one company trying to etch models into the silicon, they got a working prototype in a 8b model and it does 17k t/s. They suggest at data center scales with bigger models it'd pay for itself in a year in saved costs in electricity, cooling, space required etc.

You can apply lora's to it, but it will fall behind as it ages, im not quite sure how long a static model would last to make up the money after that 1st year, but for something like creative writing where it doesnt need current data (e.g programming but the languages are always changing and evolving is a problem) it might work?
