nope, now time to devote 30 percent of your silicon microchips to a very niche set of algorithms that are only ever run on server farms anyway (because how else could they farm your data otherwise?)

I mean, most of the AI buzz is from the people creating/selling the AIs, so…yeah, makes sense.

Also: you can’t personally buy a pc that can run a meaningful AI. They won’t even sell the high-VRAM GPUs to you.

Pretty sure this is a shit way for companies to not invest in their own electrical consumption and just spread the power across everyones device and throwing shit claims about performance around.

I mean if the future is everyone using ai all the time, I’d rather it be on device thn in a datacenter. At least on-device you get some semblance of choice in how you do things.
