    You can run your own open source large language models at home about as well as you can run Bethesda’s Starfield on a same spec’d PC

    Yes, you can download an executable of a chatbot lol.

    That’s different than running something remotely like even OpenAI.

    The more it has to reference, the more the system scales up. Not just storage, but everything else.

    Like, in your example of video games it would be more like stripping down a PS5 game of all the assets, then playing it on a NES at 1 frame per five minutes.

    You’re not only wildly overestimating chatbots ability, you’re doing that while drastically underestimating the resources needed.

    Edit:

    I think you literally don’t know what people are talking about…

    Do you think people are talking about AI image generators?

    No one else is…

      I think you’re confusing training it with running it. After it’s trained, you can run it on much weaker hardware.

        The issue is it reproducing copyrighted works verbatim…

        It can’t do that unless it contains the entire text to begin with…
