It might lead to us being able to get AI datacenter level GPUs to run our own models on for relatively cheaply as ewaste. Wouldn’t that be cool?
The hardware is generally extremely custom and licensed to high hell with specific locked firmware. It will be ewaste if the bubble crashes. You won’t be running anything like this in your house and it’s very unlikely the producers will take any steps to remove the locks on the hardware even if it were designed to be compatible with consumer grade utilities and infrastructure.
Cory Doctorow wrote a blog post on this.
Very cool, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing
What I’m looking forward is geetting the HDD cheap
That won’t happen. The chips themselves are useful for loads of industrial applications and the infrastructure itself is nontrivial.
Relatively cheap would still be tens of thousands of dollars.
Removed by mod
Very likely it will, Corporate AI and just corporate companies are prudish and restrictive, and Open source AI models don’t have any such limitations, so yes AI generated pornography will improve with better access to hardware and big tech companies no longer stifling community AI models.
Yay progress!
Always the first thing to which a new technology is applied.
Bullshit that was a legit question.
It depends on what you mean by improve.
Improved realism less clean up.
As long as the hardware is cheap enough and gets into the right hands people will train and research to improve open models.
My hardware can go into your hands for free.
They will povot them to offer remote application solutions you will own nothing and you.will like it.
