I'm confused. The article ends up using a cloud service (NVidia NIM) as the backend anyway, so is it still self hosted?

- mistrial9 2y agothe article talks about a dozen options.. the one you mention is just one of those
- LarsDu88 2y agoActually self-hosting without using the cloud at all involves building a multi-gpu rig. NIMs are just to try out the concept. Honestly, doing it this way is still a bit more secure than using OpenAI or Anthropic directly because its a slight guard against your code being used in future training sets for the next iteration of their AI.
- ramon156 2y agoAnd that's bad because? You want to use a product without improving it?
- LarsDu88 2y agoThere's two categories of folks that won't want to send their data out to "improve the product" The first is the companies that are concerned about their IP (but comfortable enough using a cloud provider). Then there's a smaller group of folks who don't want to train the next iteration of the product.
