Whatever we think of ai. It doesn’t matter. It’s here. It’s not going away. Your entire argument hinges on a delusional, near religious belief in the inevitability of AI. It is a broken technology that uses a massive amount of energy to serve up results that are often catastrophically wrong. You cannot paint the future with such decisiveness without evidence, and this is precisely what is leading to a collapse of AI valuations. It is all just vibes and no substance.

    You’re ultimately not disagreeing with me. But you are behaving very reactionarily/irrationally. Literally I was talking about the commercial AI data centers their unethical oligarchs. And the necessity of getting rid of them. Specifically I was taking with regard to self hosting. I have self hosted before. Have you? Since you’re acting like a subject matter expert who’s sure of themselves. Can you explain why that even with having no hoses or anything run to my desktop, that it worked just fine? Yes it’s inefficient. So were computers at one point. Filling buildings and consuming kilowatts of power. They got better. Frankly I really don’t like it being called ai colloquially either. I don’t think what is being paraded around us truly conscious etc. But the reactionary behavior is what leads to a lot of shit shows. Purposeful misunderstandings etc. Like I said, you probably mostly agree with me. Whether or not you understand that.

    Deepseekv4 flash can handle most projects ppl post on opensource related subreddits, its not going anywhere, its cheap af, it might get more expensive but if I have to spend 50$ instead of 20$ a month I wont cry about it.

    the assumption is this is expensive or locked behind some corporate wall, models like deepseek v4 flash that are now out are useful af, pretty damn capable and will be around forever now that they exist, because they are already running on random ppls hardware
