If you're a g*mer or do any work with AI (preferably open-source), pretty much anything relatively recent with a graphics card, used is better for driving down price while still getting a good deal.
I don't work with AI and I'm pretty much just a casual console gamer
Thinkpad is probably your best option then, I've heard a lot of good things over the years
who tf is doing local "work with AI" lol
On a laptop, no less
even the huge models that you can't run locally are kinda mid and hallucinate a lot, why would you run some tiny local thing unless you're generating banned material
I use a pytorch accelerator on a laptop.
I use a local llm to re-write the tone of emails for my job so I'm not dripping with hatred and seething contempt
this, so much this
you ever seen Sorry To Bother You?
I have an LLM give my emails White Voice and it's helped a lot as someone who can't stand being "professional"
hahaha yes, this is exactly what I'm thinking when I do it
Please share some links, i need this!
Links to what, Boots Riley's film or an LLM that will rewrite messages for you?
Because pretty much any of the open models will do the task now, depends on what hardware you have available as to what is best so I can only recommend searching "offline LLM".
Allright will give it a go 😃
