Comment on Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead

You’re not training it from scratch, though. There are people, enthusiasts, doing it for you. I can fire up LM Studio and browse through thousands of models to then have a conversation with, or have them write stories, etc., etc.
As for “nothing of economic value” - that’s, again, just plain misunderstanding what AI can be used for. Corridor Crew - a VFX team publishing on YouTube - used self-trained AI to boost their film making options. For example, to copy the “bullet time” effect from The Matrix, they were able to use around a dozen cameras instead of hundreds, and then used AI to create the “in between” frames.
How does that have “no economic value”, mate?

Right, spend all this time to self train a hobby model for one specific scenario which “Big LLM” would deliver by the time you’re back from lunch.

I love how you completely ignored everything I said, and then reiterated your misguided point.

It’s good that you love that because you had no point. A bunch of people achieving one single specific outcome is not competing with anyone. Keep masturbating to your fantasy local LLMs
