Sure, let me just buy $60,000 worth of GPUs to run a *quantized non-frontier model*.
For that price you could:
- put a down payment on a home in a large % of the US
- buy a brand new car in cash (possibly two!)
- take a long sabbatical and travel the world
- pay all 4 years or your child's college tuition

- CamperBob2 1mo agoI mean, I can't afford a new F80, but you don't see me going out of my way to post on /r/Ferrari about it. I seriously do not understand the point of these posts. The topic of the story is running 8x RTX PRO 6000s, so whining about how much they cost or what you could/should buy instead is completely off-topic.

- robotnikman 1mo agoMy bad, didn't mean to derail things with my little quip, for what its worth I did read the article and it was an interesting read. Overall I do hope for more smaller models in the future which I can run on my 3090 that deliver similar performance, or for hardware costs to drop in the next few years to prosumer levels.
