Servers must be having a hell of a time since I can't get a verification code sent to my email 😆

    Like, it's not even THAT much better. I mean, not so much so that everyone should flood it lmao. The main plus was no restriction on tokens used, but that's useless when it's getting overloaded all the time.

    I would say it's just barely noticeably better than the free tier of GPT. Which makes it a little annoying to go back but w/e.

    Not people who can't afford 100k to spin up their own servers. It's going to be a game changer for AI startups and such though who won't have to spend as much as previously thought.

    edit: Basically, numbers out of my ass, but it's like they reduced the amount you have to spend to get chatgpt-level output from $500k to $100k. Amazing and all, definitely newsworthy, but uh... not directly relevant for us little folk, more about the ripple effects

    The 671B model although 'open sourced' is a 400+GB download and is definitely not runnable on household hardware.

    What? You don't have a spare $6,000 to run nonsense generators at home? Peasant...

    Really sorry about this but this sounds like the premise to a shitty boomer joke:

    “If I wanted to spend another 6000 for a home nonsense generator, I’d get married again!”

    etc.
