- seanclayton 3mo agoWhy when they can just fork it and improve it on their own with AI?
- Barbing 3mo agoSubsidized tokens aren’t forever & local models might not compete with an entire team of volunteers, I’d guess.
- mirekrusin 3mo agoUnsubsidised token prices that people would actually pay for is a fantasy.
- jfoster 3mo agoI've been contemplating that recently. You're of course correct that subsidized tokens won't be forever, but that might only be half the story, since there's two opposing forces in action: 1. Phasing out of subsidized tokens. 2. Token prices being brought down through scaling, better hardware, etc. It's possible that these might balance each other out sufficiently that token customers won't notice any substantial increase in price.
- seanclayton 3mo ago> local models might That was yesterday's "LLMs might". Time passes. Nothing stays the same. "Local models might" X Y or Z today has no influence on the limitations of tomorrow's local models except to remove them. Yesterday's LLMs are the exact same thing, except your computer is connected to their local model for you to use. Disc drives used to be measured in megabytes—now in terabytes. Technically useful tend to get more optimized with time, not less.
- xboxnolifes 3mo agoEven if they are subsidized forever and local models do compete, its still better to have 100 people improving it rather than 1.
- andai 3mo agoMaintaining a fork costs you mental space, time and energy, even if someone else (i.e. AI) can reliably do all the work. (In my experience they're not quite there yet.)
