alt Hacker NewsYeah, so unclear why yer again everyone is so quickly running for the pitchforks & torches. The model doesn't do anything, it's just a sandbox.
I'm really tired of such overinflated ridiculousness shrillness against Google. Yes there are very real tensions to this company and their as business is scary as heck.
But folks don't seem capable of processing duality, don't seem to be able to do much but ad-hominem until they pass out. Its really so exhausting having such empty energy charging in every single time, and it keeps obstructing any ability to think straight or assess.
I was waiting for Google to pull a local LLM onto Chrome/Android devices. It opens up some revenue streams that weren't easily possible before: for example the often memed "I was talking about cigars with my wife one single time and now all I see are adsense ads for cigars" gets much easier with a local model doing speech to text and topic classification.
