Big day for people who use AI locally. According to benchmarks this is a big step forward to free, small LLMs.

If forced to characterize the attitude of lemmy towards LLM/"AI," I'd say people here are broadly interested in the tech but critical of the way it's often used.

If by interested you mean willing to bullshit... Talking about AI here is like talking about evolution at bible camp in the deep south.

I dunno, with image models specifically it seems like they're the devil because of the datasets they're trained on, killing artists, and... that's that. And LLMs to a lesser extent. There's truth to all that, but there's also a lot more.

I think most people don't realize how much of an inflection point local running vs. corporate hosting could be, which is especially ironic on Lemmy.
