“If you’re really that sick you should be in the hospital”
Please stop saying this to chronically ill people.
If we went to the hospital every time we suffered, we would live there.
Hospitals can’t help us and they often make us worse.
We are on our own, and being subtly gaslit doesn’t help.
Instead of suggesting we aren’t “that sick” or that there’s care we’re choosing not to get … ask how you can help.
Show genuine concern and a desire to learn about life with chronic illness.
Understand that more often than not an ER trip means setbacks, trauma and no help at all.

@sun @mrsaturday yeah probably, but the genie is out of the bottle on that one. I think what exists RIGHT NOW is good enough for a lot of things. OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, and Meta could go out of business tomorrow and businesses would still be adopting AI. They would just be buying a shitload more Mac Minis and servers to run something like ollama for their employees lol

@sun Cool I've been out of work for 2 years and all I've learned is all job posting sites are flooded with AI applications and your qualifications are meaningless when everyone says they can do exactly what you can but for cheaper. You don't even get emails back from entry positions anymore.
My job still exists an AI didn't take it. procurement decided that eight h100 graphics cards could eventually be turned into a product that people would buy, but it's going to cost a lot of capital to acquire them so fire two employees, that bet turned out to be wrong but at least they have hardware that might retain its value.
So it's not that I even care about AI it's that people are being oversold on its value. There's not a market recompiling halo 3 to run with skate 3 assets but that's technically something I could do.

Meta is the only American company that understands this, and is the only American AI company making local models. Which kind of sucks actually. 你好 Chinese Models! or w/e

@sun @mrsaturday if I knew this AI stuff was coming like this in 2024 i would have gotten a slightly better card. I'm stuck at 20 GB VRAM with my 7900XT. So i can run 27B models with like no context window, or i can run smaller models one might recommend for a 16GB card with a big dick context window. It's not a bad life but damn i wish i had 24GB VRAM

@dielan @sun I think it's a bog-standard case of regulatory capture. They're plateauing and want to entrench themselves, and what better way to do it than to run to an ignorant Congress and scream about how the sky is falling, and how they need to make an agency and laws to act as filters guardrails?

@icedquinn @Xeraser abliterated models are cool but it kind of messes up their coherence I found.
for some purposes I found I could bypass a censored model by having the abliterated model do most of the work then feeding it to a censored model which bypassed all its restrictions somehow lol

@sun @dielan I'm trying to make inroads into groups that want something resembling privacy when we leave the house. Having all of our packets sniffed and ran through an AI is going to be fucking horrible, though, and I can see that day coming, too.

@mrsaturday @sun I heard a fun theory the other day on a podcast that suggested the reason all the frontier model companies are calling for a slowdown - aside from obvious IPO collusion shenanigans - is the fact that the latest models aren't substantially smarter than the previous. Which is why Anthropic specifically lobotomizes it's old versions to set high expectations of the newest models when they release.
Meaning - local models will eventually catch up, and all the development most recently has been in harnesses rather than the model. Doing more with what they have and putting it behind a subscription. The frontier model companies are trying to get their shit together so harnesses like Hermes, Pi, and Opencode for example don't overtake them. I would expect some time in the future they'll try to lock you into their own harness and stop letting you use an API key in a different harness soon.
