Yes, and you can run a language model like Pygmalion Al locally on koboldcpp and have a naughty AI chat as well. Or non sexual roleplay

GPT4All is a neat way to run an AI chat bot on your local hardware.

In five to ten years, imo, AI will be everywhere and may even replace the need for mobile Internet connections in terms of looking up information.

You’re probably right, but I kinda hope you’re wrong.

Call it paranoia if you want. Mainly I don’t have faith in our economic system to deploy the technology in a way that doesn’t eviscerate the working class.

Don’t these models require rather a lot of storage?

Storage is getting cheaper every day and the models are getting smaller with the same amount of data.

I’m just curious - do you know what kind of storage is required?

Yeah that’s not a lot. I mean… the average consumer probably has 10GB free on their boot volume.

It is a lot to download. If we’re talking about ordinary consumers. Not unheard of though - some games on Steam are 50GB+

So okay, storage is not prohibitive.
