Comment on Linus Torvalds reckons AI is ‘90% marketing and 10% reality’

I keep Qwen 32B loaded on my desktop pretty much whenever its on, as an (unreliable) assistant to analyze or parse big texts, to do quick chores, to bounce ideas off of or even as a offline replacement for google translate (though I specifically use aya 32B for that)

Rue the day I cheaped out on RAM. soldered RAMmmm

Soldered is better! It’s usually faster.
But TBH the only thing that really matters his “how much VRAM do you have,” and Qwen 32B slots in at 24GB, or maybe 16GB if the GPU is totally empty and you tune your quantization carefully.
