Old models become outdated. Not sure how useful an outdated model can still be.
- satvikpendem 8mo agoThey can still be very useful because new models are reaching an asymptote in performance. Meanwhile as hardware gets cheaper in the future (current RAM prices notwithstanding), these models will become faster to run on local hardware.
- jackomelon 8mo agoDepending on the pre-training structure, you can fine-tune old local models (even locally if you have a nice GPU) to steer behavior towards your desires. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGkJj_4bjpE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGkJj_4bjpE
- Krutonium 8mo agoExactly as useful as they are today. Sure, it might not hold a candle to a model trained in 10 years, but it'll still be exactly as useful then as it is today, and run a lot faster too.
