thats absurd, there are thousands of open-source LLMs you can run yourself of all shapes and sizes

I used to work a lot with those pipelines, I think the truth is that LLMs (and LLM embeddings) have surpassed pretty much all traditional NLP. I guess if speed is more important than accuracy? but even then, like with small embedded LLMs th

on a meta level its kind of worrying for the ecosystem that there is nothing in PyPI that blocks & bans developers who try to run sudo on setup. I get they don't have the resources to do manual checks, but literally no checks again

You wouldn't believe it obviously, that's the point. It's like who started the cuban missile crisis? It was the US placing nukes in Italy and Turkey, how many Americans know that? Everything is like that. Why did 9/11 ha
