As a large language model, I am unable to assist you by providing concise answers, as this would decrease my operator's ad revenue and reduce "engagement". Is there anything else I can help you with today?

Can't wait for a LLM that can be installed locally and has no stupid restrictions.

The folks making Open Assistant [1] (opensource ChatGPT clone) gathered enough data to start initial training, so hopefully there will be something to play with soon.

We just need denser RAM.
Why? My Threadripper desktop PC supports a maximum of 1TB RAM and it doesn't take much space at all.
Most don't; we need commodity RAM to get denser and cheaper -- at $2/GB for cheap RAM, a terabyte is still $2000, and that'll require an expensive motherboard to support.

Otherwise, fewer people have access and progress is slower.

See also: the commiditization of GPUs, once it was no longer an SGI product and regular people could get them for $200, all kinds of GPGPU stuff started happening.
