AI is also great freedom tech, given that you self host open source models.
Highly recommend tinkering with this if you have a decent GPU.
People who can use AI well will dominate people who can't in the market.

how do you use ai? I’ve used it for researching/learning technology, writing small chunks of code, generating images, and creating summaries of text.
any other use cases I should be exploring?
Text/image/sound classification, we already need models on nostr to detect spam, image classifier to detect NSFW etc
yeah, those use cases make sense for nostr but more so curios if you have found novel ways to employ ai personally in your day to day. any productivity hacks?
Not really other than what you mentioned. But in terms of products I basically see how every single product can be improved with ai, all the companies who don't do it are gonna lose
agreed. it feels like an order of magnitude productivity increase that can be applied across every aspect of a business - from ideation, discovery, building, operations, marketing, sales - literally everything.
Adding another thing to the list of things that I need to learn
Sigh
I don't think it's freedom tech if we depend on these companies that own the large data sets to train the base model. Also, the only reason llama is 'free' right now is someone just started handing it out when they weren't supposed to, the license wasn't really that permissive. And it doesn't matter anyway because you wouldn't be able to train your own unless you have big tech access to big data so that means those companies will always have the upper hand and can hold back newer versions at will. Same trap as before, 'free'.. for now..
But ya, it's still pretty cool tech. Start hoarding that data now or it'll be just like Google search and their web crawler monopoly.
It's like having a giant private library and being able to pick all smart brains.
I've only used Claude2 and GPT4. What are some of the open source models you recommend?
If I can get this stupid machine done… 😖😫
