increasingly believing much of the communication gap between LLM Enthusiasts and LLM Skeptics on this website boils down to “are you someone who has largely experienced a *reasonable* amount of job security in tech, or are you someone who has not experienced job security and likely aren’t in tech”

I think this is super real, and I want the conversation to move here. The longer we stay in the "is it useful" debate, the longer we defer taking action to protect ourselves in a changed world.

I am pretty concerned about a world where there's only 2-3 companies that can run these models. I have been spending the last few days idly musing about a coop that sets up hardware and runs the open models.

new model (pun not intended) for hackerspaces: shared compute / LLM stuff I have wondered about a coworking space where everyone could hook up their compute and collectively power a distributed model

methinks possible with tools like exo!(I’m not a developer/contributor, just a user) - distributed compute seems like a fantastic way to bring large-model power to local systems; I’m hoping it can scale well
