Do you hate #broligarchs?
#Billionaires? #AiSlop but still think there is merit in #AI?

Here is my proposal for a stand alone.
OFFGRID COMMUNITY AI SYSTEM.

That's right.Your very own co-op AI

The calculations are very much back of the envelope, first cut, but quite feasible.
A 32billion parameters, frontier level performance compatable open source #llm model. The power requirements is that of 3AC units including cooling. Serves 15-20 concurrent users. 40 households of 4 people each (taking into account actual AI model distributed use metrics and contention ratios)

40 households, subscribing at $30/month over 2 years + power (solar). Train with your own datasets.
Entire set up takes half a rack.

LETS GO!!!

Great video of Beth Pearsall using a scythe in the same Country Life story;

"Unlike modern-day mowers and weedeaters, it has no numbing vibrations or sputtering fumes and almost helps her meditate as she swings it over the weeds, she told Country Life."
