How are you making it so much cheaper?

[sylware]

If AI does become ubiquitous, you will have those with access to super hardware in datacenters to have a fast dev loop for prompts on gigantic models (aka $$$), and those for who it will takes ages to run even one simple prompt, or at best will get low result quality due to the usage of 'quantized' and/or small models.

Me, I would be in the second population: currently, access to performant inference hardware in datacenter is gated with whatwg cartel web engines (a shame).

That said, if AI does become ubiquitous, hardcore regulation on its access will happen, but when I look at the web from my administration in my EU country... slaves of Big Tech (the bad americans who the good americans fail to regulate... and I don't blame them, it is so hard).
