I would rather pay for 4.5 by the query.

Why would I want Alexa+ if I have ChatGPT? Why isn't Alexa+ already a part of the Amazon Echo? None of this makes any sense.

I'm intrigued. We should think about this more.

When I see something I don't understand I use AI to help me understand it.

How about NO. Fuck off.

I think I'm in love.

Insurance needs to be not-for-profit or a government enterprise. Physical projects and infrastructure should not be started until risk is assessed. Speculators and go-go finance has ought to be constrained. As for myself, I am choosing alternative ways to plan, finance, build, and manage infrastructure project. The current systems is a non-starter for most people under 50.

Humans talk to people. It's about building a relationship.

And the engineering takes their crude tools striking inanimate matter while the mathematician and the physics argue over the nature of reality.

I believe these efforts are very important. If we want this stuff to be practical we are going to have to work on efficiency. Price efficiency is good. Power and compute efficiency would be better.

I have been playing with llama.cpp to run interference on conventional cpus. No conclusions but it's interesting. I need to look at llamafile next.

This might be the actual cost of LLMs. This would change the model considerably.

This doesn't increase my salary and if you are consultant it reduces your billable hours. No thanks.

That doesn't increase my salary. It just mean my boss will expect more work. $2400 a year. No deal.

I'm working with models and the costs are ridiculous. $7000 card and 800 watts later for my small projects and I can't imagine how they can make money in the next 5 to 10 years. I need to do more research on hardware approaching that reduces costs and power consumption. I just started experimenting with llama.cpp and I'm mildly impressed.
