If you look at it right now the only reason you don’t have home AI as a commonplace solution is because the manufacturer has chosen not to sell it to you.

And memory shortage. By buying up all RAM they ensured that you can’t run much more than lobotomized models.

Other manufactures will arise then. Won’t be quick, won’t be painless, but the US is not the whole world.

Good for you, stay where you are

I mean I do bring the phone into the bathroom to listen to music, but I use it with a bluetooth speaker and it stays on the sink. Why would you even bring it inside the shower? Capacitive touch screens work like shit when wet.

Derivatives are too risky

Never happened to me, I think I must have updated 6-8 years of releases with zero issues, even moved the SSD to a new laptop with no problems

Oh no, they have to run sudo dnf group install multimedia once in the terminal!

I have a pair of old-ish but expensive Sony bluetooth over-the-ear headphones. On Windows, their microphone doesn’t work. I’ve searched the web and apparently, that’s just it, nothing I can do.

Let’s just say that Linux invites tinkering, and there are consequences. If you install a mainstream (fedora), reliable (fedora) distro, and just do normal stuff, it’s unlikely you’ll encounter more issues than Windows. Or even a tenth of the issues.

With home assistant we usually monitor a smart plug: instant power goes above x value -> cycle has started, power goes (close) to zero for x time -> cycle has ended, send notification. In my case I raise a flag value that reminds me periodically to unload the machine until I confirm that I’ve done it

LLM = AI
AI ≠ LLM

And talk to who? You (and I) and the 0.001% can ham it up, but the rest of the world will be living in a different bubble.

And just talk btw, no bandwidth for anything else

Holy shit yes, OP you should make it

Brexit has shown us that a change of this magnitude should require an absolute majority (66%+)

whew, long name

slog

Yeah I was lucky to buy a 6900XT when it was near the lowest price, so I sold that and added a couple hundred for the 7900, seemed like a good future-proofing move, given the times we’re living in.

I think Apple silicon is faster than my generation of Ryzen, but the newest (Strix something?) with the LPDDRGGFASEWARGH5 memory should be faster yet. Of course buying all that memory right now would be quite painful.

So I have a framework laptop with ryzen ai cpu that uses 48gb of shared ram, and it does run Q4 llms fine enough, but I’m not sure it compares to a real GPU.

On my desktop I have an RX 7900 XTX but I’ve only dabbled in image generation so far, so right now I couldn’t really tell you the difference.
