Yikes!
- sschueller 5y agoYou left out "How can I help the project? : I need the computing power to train models.". Seems reasonable that someone who has spare computing power available would offer that to expand the available models.
- ddtaylor 5y agoI don't feel comfortable giving someone remote access to my multi-thousand dollar hardware.
- lcrz 5y agoThen don't.
- amelius 5y agoThey said "if you have a free computer", meaning one that isn't used. Also, you can wipe the computer and re-install the OS afterwards. Finally, whenever you install any kind of software, you are giving someone remote access to your hardware in one form or another.
- Tenoke 5y agoYou can just set it up in vm with passthrough for that card by now I believe. All the cards he's looking for should work fine that way I believe.

- Tenoke 5y agoYou can also pass the VM's network through a VPN.

- nexuist 5y agoI recognize we've all been training to avoid phishing scams and getting taken advantage of, but sometimes a friendly offer is just that. This person is a software developer, if they don't have access to hardware now they will soon, all you are doing by helping is expediting the process.
- sva_ 5y agoA 2080ti makes around $5.50 per day in ethereum, so about 30*5.5=165 usd to train a face model.
- TheRealSteel 5y agoI don't get why you wouldn't just ask for donations, you can rent a GPU on Paperspace for less than a dollar per hour.
