@karl@infosec.exchange @sherbang@chaos.social @orange_lux@eldritch.cafe @saxnot@chaos.social @dibi58@this.mouse.rocks I know how much it takes to run at least basic models because I'm running local models for experiments. I won't use hosted models because I'm not giving them money or training data. But yeah, capitalists are trying to sell something that doesn't exist and that they don't understand. I would be entirely unsurprised to find out that even inference on corporate models can't cover costs. To sell "AI" it has to be a thing that just works for everything all the time. It must take no thought. That's incredibly wasteful. It needs to stop being subsidized, just like cars.
