Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Servers must be having a hell of a time since I can't get a verification code sent to my email πŸ˜†

Like, it's not even THAT much better. I mean, not so much so that everyone should flood it lmao. The main plus was no restriction on tokens used, but that's useless when it's getting overloaded all the time.

I would say it's just barely noticeably better than the free tier of GPT. Which makes it a little annoying to go back but w/e.

Can't people run it locally supposedly?

Not people who can't afford 100k to spin up their own servers. It's going to be a game changer for AI startups and such though who won't have to spend as much as previously thought.

edit: Basically, numbers out of my ass, but it's like they reduced the amount you have to spend to get chatgpt-level output from $500k to $100k. Amazing and all, definitely newsworthy, but uh... not directly relevant for us little folk, more about the ripple effects
