I have avoided AI (LLMS) because it didn’t seem nearly useful enough to warrant supporting these tech assholes. Is there anyway to use it locally on a normal device (16 Gb ram, 8 year old Geforce graphics, etc?). Can I just slow it down and get it to work locally?
Srsly, unless you grow all your food and make all your possessions, you’re constantly supporting billionaires. I mean sure, run your own LLM, but don’t let it create a delusion of ethical purity.
Most of the world’s food comes from small local farms. Maybe join a CSA if you live in an industrialized capitalist country without a proper farmer’s market nearby
