• How feasible would it be to build a pc for higher parameter models like (quantized) Bloom 176b?

  According to https://huggingface.co/bigscience/bloom it has 70 layers, so that's not a perfect split, but even so that should still fit. Source: 11 months ago

• Do Foundation Model Providers Comply with the EU AI Act?

  It's notable that Hugging Face's BLOOM (https://huggingface.co/bigscience/bloom) might already be compliant (ignoring the 'member states' requirement which I'm sure they could comply with easily enough, it's about disclosing EU member where the model is on the market, so them simply listing all EU countries in a doc somewhere may suffice). Some may be tempted to point at the lower scores of OpenAI, Google and... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Ask HN: Where to start in playing with open source generative AI models?

  I've been reading a lot of the latest posts on hacker news, but a little lost on where to actually start. I'd like to run something on my local macbook pro to play around and does anyone have recommendation of like a top 5 links of who to follow and what to play with? So far I've seen things like https://huggingface.co/bigscience/bloom. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• The greatest risk of AI is from the people who control it, not the tech itself

  They do, and they did. It's called BLOOM and it comes in sizes up to 176B parameters. See: https://huggingface.co/bigscience/bloom. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• [D] Layers of neurons in LLMs?

  ChatGPT is a GPT-3.5 model according to OpenAI Docs. So it has 175 billion parameters. For the architecture, people said BLOOM is likely the nearest alternative to GPT-3/3.5 models. Source: 12 months ago

• Dual system case, cooling 4-port 10G ethernet

  I'm trying to plan a server build & want two systems, preferably in one box, a firewall & a server with enough oomph for freedombox, a personal git repository, mastodon, & a few other things. Https://freedombox.org/ Https://joinmastodon.org/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Railroad: Single-user, selfhosted blog for I2P for Linux and Windows

  Is it possible to use this with Freedombox? I use a Raspberry Pi as my i2p router, the Pi Runs Freedombox but it doesn't have a GUI installed, I just connect to it from other devices. How would I use the editor for example? Source: over 1 year ago

• What are some common things that are overlooked when it comes to privacy?

  Instead of commercial cloud-services, try something like Tailscale or ZeroTier for VPN across your devices, and run a https://freedombox.org/ on that network. The lesser but still decent option is to use client-side encrypted services like Proton Calendar and SpiderOak cloud backups. Source: over 1 year ago

• My Health Record: after 12 years and more than $2bn, hardly anyone is using digital service

  Yeah, if I still lived in Oz I’d be running a [freedom box)(https://freedombox.org/). It galls me that we have to treat the government as an Orwellian malevolent stalker. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Do you think large companies like google, Facebook, or Twitter should be allowed to “police” content posted to them? Why?

  I would like to see a federated system, such as ActivityPub where everyone hosted their own instances on their FreedomBoxes. Moderation would be something you opt into, where competing services would scrape the web and do their own categorizations, and you can choose what you want to see and what you don't. Even without the moderation system, ActivityPub allows you to choose which servers your instance... Source: about 2 years ago
