The end of Tesla is nigh

(No, this is not about Musk supporting a racist, homophobic, bigoted authoritarian - others will write endlessly about that today) Tesla is valued as a software company, not a car company. This is an image they’ve pushed endlessly - they’re “further ahead”. Their cars will be self-driving in 2016 .. sorry, 2017. No, 2018. 2019 it is - promise! Your Tesla will robotaxi and make you rich while you sleep in 2020.

The delta between an LLM and consciousness

With Facebook’s release of LLaMa, and the subsequent work done with its models by the open community, it’s now possible to run a state of the art “GPT-3 class” LLM on regular consumer hardware. The 13B model, quantized to 4-bit, runs fine on a GPU with ~9GB free VRAM. I spent 40 minutes chatting with one yesterday, and the experience was almost flawless. So why is Troed playing around with locally hosted LLM “chatbots”?
