metrix commented on Can I run AI locally?   canirun.ai/... · Posted by u/ricardbejarano

Besides trying to run on your own hardware, anybody have recommendations for running some decent models on one of the many "AI clouds" providers? This is for sporadic use and so maybe one of the "serverless" providers that bill by the hour or minute or similar as opposed to monthly renting GPUs.

There are quite a few of them but their marketing is just confusing and full of buzz words. I've been tinkering with OpenRouter that acts as a middleman.

use openrouter, and call it a day. auto switching between providers, connectivity to all clouds and even works with free models

There are limited ways to short these positions which would probably add some fuel to the fire.

I don't see it as adding fuel to the fire. I see it as helping the market price companies correctly

So we get so worked up over this stuff, and for good reason. But personally I'm taking another stance...

let them..

It's not my choice to make someone understand what's best for an individual or as a group. Let them make these decisions, and learn for themselves. Will this cause issues where I am at risk of getting measles? Or that kids could get sick over non pasteurized milk? yes, but we're back in a place where people have to feel the pain.

That's not to judge, or belittle or put anyone down. There's people who have views and values that conflict and that's OK.. Even if it's not the best for us a whole.

I agree but also wonder if editor plugins fall squarely in the range of things an LLM could vibe-code for me?

There is a large class of problems now for which I consider the chosen programming language to be irrelevant. I don't vibe code my driver code/systems programming stuff, but my helper scripts, gdb extensions, etc are mostly written or maintained by an LLM now.

I'm right there with you, and to be honest Lua just works. I helped with Neovim when it started ~10 years ago, and didn't understand the big deal about implementing lua.. But now that it's here, I can't believe it wasn't forked and implemented sooner

That's good to know. I've never actually tried Copilot. I was going to try this week.

Totally worth it. I tied it to openrouter.ai so that I could use 'all the AI's' (TM)

Totally worth it

While I get your view, I think examples would help to move the conversation along in a more constructive manner

Really, no mmap?

I'm curious what your suggest mmap pragma would be.

Thanks for posting!

I've recently added more datasets, "Places", "Birds", "Photos", and "You".

Also, a hint - the rectangular selection tool lets you generate custom reports for a location.

Isn't "freed and flown home" the same thing as "deported"? These were routine professionals doing a job they took in good faith under rules and norms that have held for a century or more.
metrix · 6 months ago
I don't quite understand what happened other than "deported by ICE".

LLMs write python and typescript well, because of all the examples in their training data. But what if we made a new programming language whos goal was to be optimal for an LLM to generate it? Would it be closer to assembly? If we project that the future is vibe coded, and we scarcely look at the outputted code, testing, instead, that the output matches the input correctly, not looking at the code, what would that language look like?
metrix · 7 months ago
I have thought the same thing. How is it created? is it an idea by an LLM to make the language, or a dev to create a language designed for an llm.

How do we get the LLM to gain knowledge on this new language that we have no example usage of?
