Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

MODERATORS
CONTEXT:
They aren't warning about their own AI going rogue, but smaller locally hosted AI's.
Because they fear the competition of local AI's and want to silence them with laws.
Of fucking course
So is it time to spin up a local model on the ol 5070ti and set it for mayhem? Any tips?
Look into ollama and figure out which local model (likely from huggingface) that fits best for how much memory your graphics card has.
You can use AI (maybe copilot free) to guide you through all this. You'll be a little better off having that 16GB of memory than I have with my 10GB. The gwen model might be a good place to start?
Hell yea, thanks brother! The irony of having an LLM walk me through setting up a local instance is pretty great lol, surprised that didn't occur to me! I have tried in the past with comfyUI but was over my head immediately.
There's a long, but interesting article on ollama's scummy behaviour I've been seeing circulating - https://sleepingrobots.com/dreams/stop-using-ollama/
It made me switch from my ollama I never used to localai that I now never use instead.
