But you do realize that un-innovative, plain old data centers not for bots and AI are a thing, right?
You literally can't throw your opinion at me without them.
Very ironic you are saying that on a federated social media platform with no data centers.
I think you meant to say that to the absolute anti-data center person, not me. I'm trying to explain that not all data centers are for LLMs and therefore killing the planet at hyperspeed.
Where do you think Lemmy instances are hosted? I know for a fact mine is hosted in a Hetzner center. Not in the corner of someone's living room, on an old computer.
