alt Hacker News>would an AI instantly migrate itself once its capable of doing so?
These "AI" are frontier models that are enormous in size. Outside of AI data centers, I don't believe there is much hardware out there that could even run them.

Again, i'm not worried about it today. But given where the hardware on my lap has progressed since my first "PC" in the 90s, i'm confident that we'll have hardware capable of running similar size models in our living rooms in the next decade or two. Sounds a long way away, but it isn't.
The tipping point we should be worried about is local models trained on working together in agent swarms and that can hack. Give it what... 12 months? 18 months? 24 months? I wouldn't give any more than that given how capable Qwen3.8-27B is already and if they release a Qwen4-35B-A3B that's going to be a beast.
