I kind of think we should make it illegal to run LLMs as a service available to the public. They're still cool behind the scenes, but it seems to only go bad when unprepared people talk to them

You should at least understand them well enough to set them up yourself or have someone do it for you. At least that will demystify it a bit

    All it needs is enough tech ability to run a few docker commands. That has absolutely nothing to do with LLMs. Not to mention the horrifying intrusion on our rights by limiting what we can host.

    Yeah, that's what I want them to do. I want them to install docker, run some commands, correctly identify their graphics card and driver, and get the networking right. Then I want them to pick the model they want and download it

    It's not about making it hard, it's about having a level of understanding about how this all works. If you're using AI, I shouldn't have to explain to you that it can't search the Internet unless you manually give it that ability. I shouldn't have to explain that the LLM is just a file, not some magical Internet djinn

    Not to mention the horrifying intrusion on our rights by limiting what we can host.

    Umm... You don't have the right to host anything you want. You can't host CSAM, copyrighted things, and you have to comply with tons of laws if you want user content
