Hardware limitations. A model that big would require millions of video cards, thousands of terabytes of storage, and hundreds of terabytes of ram.
This is also where AI ethics plays into whether such a model should exist in the first place. People are really scared of AI but they don’t know that ethics standards are being enforced at the top level.
Edit: get Elon Musk on the phone, he’s deranged enough to spend that much money on something like this while ignoring the ethical and moral implications /s

- Comment on Financial optimism linked to lower cognitive ability 11 months ago:
Dawson found that individuals with higher cognitive abilities were less likely to fall into “extreme optimism” about their financial futures. In contrast, they were more likely to have realistic or even pessimistic expectations. For example, those with cognitive abilities two standard deviations below the mean exhibited a higher probability of “extreme optimism” compared to those two standard deviations above the mean.

- Comment on Elon’s Edsel? The Tesla Cybertruck went on sale today 11 months ago:
Musk claimed the Cybertruck is better than any other truck but also more of a sports car than any other sports car, made of a "special Tesla designed steel alloy" that he claimed will never rust and which cannot be stamped but which can also be produced in volume.
The skepticism is coming through very heavy and I’m all for it.
Musk implied that in a crash with another vehicle, the Cybertruck—which weighs 6,603–6,843 lbs (2,995–3,104 kg)—will destroy the other vehicle.
It’s a car, not a battlebot. Nobody should want to destroy the other vehicle in the event of a crash.

You’re right about the undue search and seizure. For me, it isn’t the politicians I fear in this hypothetical scenario. I fear the corporations and police that would be the case-by-case adjudicators.

- Comment on EU-funded report calls for wealth of super-rich to be taxed, not income 1 year ago:
If the billionaires want to keep playing, someone has to restock the claw machine.
The ethics of taking money away from billionaires aside, you statistically will never be a billionaire AND you stand to gain from closure of the wealth gap. Why the facetious attitude?
- Comment on Oh look, the Biden administration is building the wall (not a joke, it just waived 26 laws to make this happen!) 1 year ago:
U.S. officials said the administration was required by law to spend money now that Congress set aside in 2019 under Trump, adding that attempts to push lawmakers to reappropriate the funding elsewhere failed.

- Comment on Gasoline, diesel vehicles dominate India's auto market, EVs lag 1 year ago:
Then it might not work for your situation. If you do want an EV then you may have to wait until they can improve charge times. Or you may have to run an extension cord or something.
- Comment on Gasoline, diesel vehicles dominate India's auto market, EVs lag 1 year ago:
It takes approx 30 min if you use a supercharging station and you're going from low to full. But EV owners can have the option to charge overnight at home if they have a lvl 2 charging station. So in a work commuter situation you don't spend the 5 minutes to get gas if you have an EV, but in a cross-country driving scenario it will add time to your trip. Ultimately it comes down to what kind of daily driving you do.
