They’re definitely reducing model performance to speed up responses. ChatGPT was at its best when it took forever to write out a response. Lately I’ve noticed that ChatGPT will quickly forget information you just told it, ignore requests, hallucinate randomly, and has a myriad of other problems I didn’t have when the GPT-4 model was released.

I heard he also hand builds every Tesla. Crazy he has time to do that while meticulously crafting every starlink satellite and raptor engine from scratch!

There a great Wikipedia article which talk about it. Basically AI has always been used as a fluid term to describe forms of machine decision making. A lot of the times it’s used as a marketing term (except when it’s not like during the AI Winter). I definitely think that a lot of the talk about regulation around “AI” is essentially trying to wall off advanced LLMs to the companies who can afford to go through the regulation paperwork while making sure those who are pushing for regulation now stay ahead. However, I’m not so sure calling something AI vs LLMs will make any difference when it comes to actual intellectual property litigation due to how the legal system operates.

This project might not be exactly what you’re looking for due to the limited amount of prebuilt models, but this is an interesting project nonetheless. It seems to run on a variety of hardware (even smartphones), however, you’ll need to compile your own models if there isn’t a prebuilt model available. Luckily at least Vicuna is included as a prebuilt model. There’s another model included called RWKV-Raven which is actually an RNN instead of a transformer that approaches its level of performance. Seems pretty interesting.

Out of the available image generators, Stable Diffusion is the best but be prepared to mess around with it to get the best results. If you have an iPhone or Mac, Draw Things is a great way to get started. If you want to dive head first into stable diffusion and have good hardware with lots of VRAM then try Automatic1111 as others have suggested.
