If token speed doesn't count, you can have 200GB "RAM" in swap space. But I agree, what the OP does is a lot more efficient than this.

At that point, how does this compare with simply running the model on the CPU?

NPCs are Non-Player-Characters in video games, i.e. "extras". Their programming is usually kept simple, so they're kind of famous for robotically repeating the same lines or doing the same actions. I think here it might mean

What you're saying is correct - but it's used to push a much more comprehensive lockdown of devices that has absolutely nothing to do with protection of minors. It's as if the government first let businesses install slot mach

Is that really human input, or just grounded input in general? Most human-written texts on the internet refer in some way to the real world, or at least to things outside the text itself: They might be descriptions or reactions to current

I don't see an audience description in the article. Especially if you're a responsible adult, wouldn't you want to be informed about the downsides?

I was amused by the compulsively positive way this article is written. I don't think I've had read about "falling in love" with a designer drug or about "chemsex enthusiasts" before. All good, let people do wha

How do you know it's not used in the wars? Though I wonder if there is a risk of causing accidents. Feeling focused is not the same as being focused, especially if on drugs. The effect might be ok to get some slick sales presentation
