Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.
Get support from the community! Ask questions, share prompts, discuss benchmarks, get hyped at the latest and greatest model releases! Enjoy talking about our awesome hobby.
As ambassadors of the self-hosting machine learning community, we strive to support each other and share our enthusiasm in a positive constructive way.
Rules:
No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.
No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.
No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.
No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.

Thanks for your response. There is a lot of misunderstanding in those that hold capitalist viewpoints.
I feel some of it is not knowing any better, with some of it being confusion, and some of it is purposeful bad faith. Calling your opponents or people with views that differ from you left-wing or far-left (when in fact both individuals are capitalists) is usually an insult to dismiss them.
When people are called left-wing or far-left, usually what the person is saying about them is that they aren't as pro-capitalist as they are - not that they are socialist-leaning (e.g. such as being a democratic socialist like Bernie Sanders) or in support of socialist policies.
I'm unsure if UGI has a bias towards AI corporations or capitalism, but AI could be an existential threat to markets and capitalism - especially considering the presence of open source models. For example, AI could very easily enable us to achieve libertarian socialism with none of the drawbacks as seen before in history.
I will have to check out the 12Axes test further, but I feel this could be distortion or misinterpretation of it.
