Be warned, prompt processing is slow

Mixtral GPTQ can run on a 3090

Mistral 7b can run on most modern gpus

That’s ( fixed, messed up mah conversion) .1wh for a second of 3090 time/ 30 images a second.

If a 3090 drew 3 watt hours in 1/30th of a second it would melt.

Possibly off by one order of magnitude though… Editing post to see, and it looks like I was. 300 images per charge instead of 3000.

This is outdated in a big way with stable diffusion turbo and the recent LCM models that can render images at 30fps on a 3090.

360w * 1s /60 seconds a minute / 60 minutes an hour = .1 wh/image

30 images a second? .033 wh

A phone battery is 3000 mah * 3.5volts = 10.5 wh

318 images per phone charge

My math is probably off, but you get the idea.

Open AI has been a farce ever since they disabled access to GPT3 for the sake of security.

This could be fine if it didn’t immediately send all of your data to the internet.

But as is, fuck that and fuck you Microsoft.

Windows told me I don’t have permission to do something. On my computer. As an administrator. Using the command line.

Fuck Windows, fuck Microsoft and their controlling asses, and fuck co-pilot and Open AI for contributing to artificial intelligence not only being closed source and proprietary, but encouraging the United States government to make it literally illegal to do it on the open source field as well.

Because I’ve seen these things work and I know for damn sure that if those people have a chance to vote for me they wouldn’t do it in a million years.

I’ve learned better than the trust narratives of how you should be a good person.

All I will get is yet more rounds of talk about how everyone else needs help while all the issues I actually care about are left to wither and die.

So fuck them, I’m voting based on the issues that I feel are important and impact my life.

Regardless I do think you’re overreacting a bit on the political front

Biden hasn’t crossed the line yet. I’m not reacting at all, just cautious and making my opinion clear as a way to (ever so slightly) encourage further regulation not to happen.

Dont let perfection be the enemy of good enough, if the price to pay for long term stability is slower R&D so be it

It’s not slowing development. They’re making sure the common person doesn’t have access to it. They are going to ensure only big companies see the benefit.

Yes, because that’s my primary issue.

If it was some other issue I’d flip flop my vote based on that. If I didn’t have any issues like that I’d vote on the “generic best party” and generally that’s the Democrats.

If I were voting against people’s rights I’d just always vote straight ticket Republican.

That doesn’t contradict what I said at all.

The Democrats can easily both support rights and AI. It’s their choice not to and if they make that choice they lose my vote.

AI is a layname the field of deep learning. Systems that use data to create a function that performs any task.

There are other branches of machine learning but deep learning with neural nets blows them out of the water when it comes to “pushing the envelope”, and aren’t really what people think of when they think of AI- even if most use cases really don’t need it.

I’d be against regulating those algorithms as well, but they’re so boring nobody really cares and they’ll always be available open source.

basic non-learning software that people call AI but is basically just a general improvement on say stabilizing video in a recording?

Even chat GPT and other LLMs are not learning as you use them. A really big and growing fraction of stuff your computer does depends more and more on trained neural nets.

im using a beat up s7

You understand AI has been a thing since like 2013, right?

generally software improvements or added tools its looking to be at best a new tool for corporations to exploit us with

Which is why we need this stuff to be open source

Well, I wouldn’t vote for AI if the advancement of AI required we don’t mandate police cameras.

But it doesn’t. The Democrats can easily both support rights and AI. It’s their choice not to and if they make that choice they lose my vote.

Yeah, that’s just you being pissed I don’t vote for other people before myself.

Fuck you got mine would be if, on knowing issues I don’t care about are resolved, I started voting against people’s rights.

This is “fuck you, don’t got mine”. Once I got mine the fuck you will go away.

Regardless LLMs aint the most revolutionary tech of the century

Oh it is though. Not LLMs, they’ll probably go out of date soon. AI is the thing that’s revolutionary. Only second to genetic modification, but AI and most other forms of human advancement will likely be hand in hand.

Like solar roadways, or the hyperloop, or the thorium powered car.

This is irrelevant but I didn’t buy the crap on any of those.

Or crypto.

AI is actually producing results. It’s in use as we speak. It’s producing real value. It’s not some fantasy far off thing. You can use them today.

And you probably use AI every single day when you open your phone and take a picture. You’ll eat these words, and when you do you’ll hopefully have access to the tech yourself, because otherwise Mister Microsoft will control who can and can’t succeed in the world.

Except something I want is under threat.

You’re just pissed I don’t prioritize issues that don’t effect me when issues that very much do come up.

And I’ve seen enough of the world to know how that goes. If you don’t stand up for what matters to you, nobody will and everything you have will be slowly eroded away.

Acting like everyone ending up in concentration camps is without question doomerist.

not looking out for other folks usually ends badly for people

So does letting the government put the most revolutionary technology of the century in the hands of big tech. The Democrats choose their policy. If nobody swing votes and you all expect the world to blindly vote Democrat they’ll get away with shit they shouldn’t get away with.

The ideal scenario is that there are enough people like me that the Democrats think twice about being overbearing and still win regardless.

You can shiv me in your doomerist fantasies.

All you care about is if you get a fancy new toy, and to hell with everyone else’s rights.

AI isn’t just a toy. It’s a potentially world changing technology and the government wants to ensure the common person doesn’t have any control over how it’s used.

Denying access to the common person will be the largest act of theft of power from the people to big companies this century.

And like I said. I’m not an idiot who votes for other people. I vote for my interests. Banning AI makes that my interest. Without such a threat, I’ll vote for other common goods, because those benefit me as well.
