Its small in the sense it'll run on basically any GPU from the last decade, rather than high end or specialised GPUs. And there is a 1GB gemma4 model, which is meant for CPU/phones.

That might be of interest to you then? Its a small model trained for profanity detection, might work for your use case. Dunno if it can be used for generation though.

Otherwise, there were 1GB gemma models, you can run them on CPU.

Where do you draw the line between Large LM and a non-large LM? You can fit Gemma models into 8GB VRAM or even way less:

Probably a bit of both, but my bet is that the ad industry alone would have pushed it.

Looks pretty unusable for humans as well.

That article is terribly written. Get to the fucking point, what do you want changed, what failed. I shouldnt have to read a dozen bus crash anecdotes before you get to the things you want fixed.

Edit:

TLDR:

They want:

• stricter laws around what drugs bus drivers are allowed to be on, and better reporting.
• better road design for the roundabout to slow traffic to 40 (bus crashed at over 56)
• mandatory seatbelt notifications to be played to encourage passengers to belt up.

See ABC? That was easy to summarise.

I'd suggest that a good coach may be a better fit? Le Bron could join an U12 team and dominate for them, but they individually won't get better. If he leaves youre back to being the original U12 team.

But a good coach can improve each individual player, such that even after the coach leaves that are a better team still.

(I am not a basketball person, I know he was a player, but did he ever coach? If so, I retract my suggestion).

If people are mis-using the metaphor to push an agenda, the solution isnt to further twist the metaphor, it's to push back tell them they are using it incorrectly, and that they are full of shit. Further misinterpreting the metaphor doesn't solve anything, and just allows further abuse of the metaphor.

If anything, this misinterpretation is exactly what a right wingers want, as it legitimises their use of the sound byte, without hold their word to the higher standard of the original metaphor.

We should be holding the metaphor to its strictest meaning, which is a good policy (rising tide) must benefit absolutely everyone (ALL ships).

Maybe we shouldn't encourage OP to self harm? :D

The metaphor doesn't use the word people at all. Boats refers to all people. Some are big boats (wealthy), some are dingies (poor). The tide raises all the boats equally.

If you want to twist the metaphor into some kind of class thing, fine, but you are deliberately misinterpreting it to push your agenda.

Its a metaphor, it isnt literal

You're misinterpreting the metaphor. There isno separate class of boatless people in the metaphor, the boats are the people.
