Likewise, I this direction gives engineers a way also to fight back with all the hackers/scammers. It'll create so many new companies as well.

Great clarifying question; sorry I should have been more clear.

I mean working with open weights and in the future, creating their own open source models from the ground up. At the moment, that's not reasonable, but I'm leaving the door open for when/if there's a break through in training that greatly reduces the costs of training new models.

Right now, LoRA can give amazing results with small models.

I'm genuinely curious about this topic and love learning. My fundamental belief is that it makes sense to build highly tuned models that specialized in specific areas and using orchestration on top to call out to these specialized models with a "shared memory". This would allow for the ability to improve parts of the system without the fear of regression in other areas and it would be cheaper to create a smart "platform". I know there's models with MoE etc but feel like the "microservices" approach (micromodels) would work well here.

I could be totally wrong.

If my grandmother had wheels, she would have been a bike.

I'm glade you get stiff reading peoples comments, kudo's to you gangster. Now Daddy Chill.

Who said you can't? What I'm saying is people who look at suicide clearly need help with perspective and support.

If people who feel like terminating their life, got help, I strongly believe there was be a large drop in suicide.

You'll have elaborate on "life is just too much". That to me, opinion here, sounds like "I don't want to try". That's suitable for games, but I think life is something special.

Likewise and this day an age you don't need much to do that.

You really don't need to engage in the thread if it bothers you that much. Do keep in mind, maybe you're on the left side of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Memento et mori.

Don't rush it.

By the way, 2026 was the 30 year anniversary of his passing. I'm 47 years old and I still think of him almost daily.

To all those reading this thread, suicide isn't the answer. I know you've heard this and it's not special coming from me.

We all heard it's a permanent solution to a temporary problem and so many other quotes. I've lost a lot of people growing up to suicide and the impact it has on those who continue to live on that you love is traumatic.

The man who raised me like I was his son told my mother that he would never commit suicide. He had stage 4 cancer that eventually took his life on my 17th birthday. His reason for enduring through the pain was to teach me that suicide is never the answer because it hurts all those around you.

Although he passed away on my 17th birthday of his illness, he forever changed my life in so many ways. Each and every day I aim to be a better man because of how he loved me.

Please take a moment to utilize this time you have to change those around you. You don't need to create a massive company, be a CEO, have a career people admire, etc.. all you need to do is be someone that inspires others to improve like John did for me.
