Its locally hosted including the model and the runtime. You can have your program open up a server and bind ports locally if you want to run your own server and not just a desktop GUI.

Maybe there is confusion in what I am saying. Yes. That is not ChatGPT’s API:

What I mean is - it literally has an API server you can run yourself if you want to programmatically talk to it. Here is a screenshot of the menu option.

I’m not convinced that’s the truth. But we also need term limits universally. I think too that officials need a way to get elected without third party funding in the US. Like even if you run there should be a system for running too.

Look if going to college didn’t cost four years of time with 20K per year, where in my career you’d be near to outdated (tech), I’d go.

But for tech I feel like its almost a scam. I’d rather have the certs and/or practical knowledge or be able to go through an interview via algorithms, soft skills, explaining how to go through what I know. Its harder work to learn this way but I think it keeps your skills sharper.

I got perma banned off of reddit for commenting on a sub that I had been banned from, and instead of them just not letting my comment post - they instead basically ban you for posting again.

So if you get banned of a sub on reddit and forget because…who cares… You get yourself perma’d for ban evasion.

I got banned from like a news sub for saying “surprise not everyone shares your political opinion, of course there’s dissent”.

That’s when reddit for me went absolutely to shit. Just getting blacklisted by mods who are reading into everything.

I don’t know man I just work here

Unregulated lobbied capitalism. I’m okay with capitalism and competing ideas. What I’m not okay with is some of the late stage problems we’ve encountered as a society. Assuming the US average person lives to be a very low of 50, we are four generations deep. Ive known two generations in my own lineage. That’s not very long.

It’s okay to make better systems. Even for billionaires its okay because a rising tide floats all the boats. This is something that needs to be taught better to the upper class. If these guys had less complaining workers, people willing to contribute more so in their enterprises, workers who are happy to make their products, it would be fine. Putting the squeeze on the little guy does nothing for these dudes besides some tight margins.

Coupled with a very elderly legislative body we are left with senseless greed in both trade and politics. Portions of the population just consume politics like it’s a sitcom. What we’re left with is a system in need of refinement.

I haven’t seen anyone really saying that. Reddits a cesspool of hyper moderation. They’ll ban their own users and Lemmy will literally be default

Stop right there criminal scum. Pay the court a defederation. Your posts are now forfeit.

No. They’ll just name an entire lineup of the worlds biggest computers after your daughter.

I want to take a camera and microphone to a voting booth building and ask people “hey did you vote for a man over 70 years old today”

Just because it’s like encountering a bad show on live TV and skipping over it or a commercial and saying “damn that’s dumb who is buying this?!” And never finding out. The best eye opener is meeting people who you didn’t think actually existed.

😂 thanks for the chuckle

We need an article summary bot up in here man. I got walled off after a few paragraphs and it wanted my email to store in their database😅

Thanks for sharing some info. And no I didn’t know that. I appreciate that it was a mild sharing of info. I’m from New England and I think even just getting back to home and leaving the intense heat of California would feel far more comfortable.

You’d be surprised what living on the other side of the mountain - in silicon valley - brings for heat. Santa Cruz feels nice normal and cool to me while the valley just gets so scorching it’s almost untenable living here.

I’m thinking of moving to a state that’s colder where I can buy land that has water within the property.

I also think to do anything sizeable you need the resources a company can bring. Our problems are at scale. You need a scaled resource pool and reinvestment in that to work up to some of the issues. I like the idea of carbon extraction for example, but I don’t see any resources invested in it from US companies.

I’m not sure about that at all. At what point does a computer program become intelligent enough to not have human rights but have some cognition of fair use.

I think it needs to be really hashed out by someone who understands both copyright law and data warehouses, and some programming. It’s a sparse field for sure but we need someone equipped for it.

Because I don’t think it’s as linear as you’re describing it.

Our ancient legal system trying to lend itself to “protecting authors” is fucking absurd. AI is the future. Are we really going to let everyone take a shot suing these guys over this crap? Its a useful program and infrastructure for everyone.

Holding technology back for antiquated copyright law is downright absurd.

Edit: I want to add that I’m not suggesting copyright should be a free for all on your books or hard work, but rather that this is a computer program and a major breakthrough, and in the same way that if I read a book no one sues my brain for consumption I don’t think we should sue an AI: it is not reproducing books. In the same manner that many footnotes websites about books do not reproduce a book by summarizing their content. With the contingency that until Open AI does not have an event where their reputation has to be re-evaluated (IE this is subject to change if they start trying to reproduce books).

Those are all expensive, used Thinkpad is below the ground-dirt cheap…$150?!

My Thinkpad Ultrabook was insanely cheap even with a docking station. I do donate to Pop OS once a year though as a thanks for their work and I recommend the same. It’s like $12 a year on their site and they do great work.

Trying to get one of their laptops but thats in short order for me, for now.

Adding on:

• lack of quick shipping
• proxied payments like PayPal or apple gpay
• some use laptop kits that are supposedly cheap
• hardware different from software if it breaks and there’s no store or big company to ask for a refund from, you’ll be pissed
• some of the hardware reviews about bugs and their handling of them are damning

Because it fucking gaslighting. I remember having this WTF moment when I was reading the O’Reilly Ethereum programming book.

If web 2 was html 5 and css3, how does a protocol that relies solely on money being transacted make the basis of web3?

This sounds exactly like a VC plot. “There will be money exchanged on every transaction”. I bet they lost their minds in the pitch room when they heard it.
