"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.

Until the datasets to train the models are curated and paid for, there won't be an ethical LLM.
I haven't looked into smaller models, but I'd wager that training the models is still power intensive.
And finally, how the LLM are used currently make them a net negative.
I understand the lack of ethics and I agree that their current mode of use is definitely a net negative, but was wondering more about the impact on the environment specifically.
It still takes a lot of energy to train the local models, only to get a bullshit generator.
