[โ] Epp@lemmus.org 0 points 2 months ago (4 children) Uh huh... You just admitted you are the one with black & white thinking by saying LLM are bad. I assure you that the LLM that I use are not bad. They also don't require a data center. They run locally on my laptop, with no more expenditure of energy than playing a video game. Unless video games are bad, too? We have a difference of opinion because if anything is bad between the two concepts then it's data centers, not LLMs. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [โ] diaphragmwp@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 months ago* (3 children) They also don't require a data center? Did you train them without any data centers though? Unless video games are bad, too? Not really, but whenever choosing a game to play, I am biased towards some of the lesser resource intensive titles like TeeWorlds, Need for Speed: Underground and The Ultimate Shovelware Title: Homebrew Edition rather than, for example, Counter-Strike 2, Forza Horizon or The Ultimate Shovelware Title: Unity Edition. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [โ] Epp@lemmus.org 0 points 2 months ago (2 children) Did you train them without and data centers though?
