  • This is the point everyone downvoting me seems to be missing. OP wanted something comparable to the responsiveness of chat.chatgpt.com… Which is simply not possible without insane hardware. Like sure, if you don’t care about token generation you can install an LLM on incredibly underpowered hardware and it technically works, but that’s not at all what OP was asking for. They wanted a comparable experience. Which requires a lot of money.




  • Xanza@lemm.eetoAsklemmy@lemmy.mlCan you self-host AI at parity with chatgpt?

    What kind of hardware do you need to run with comparable responsiveness to chatgpt?

    Generally you need between $8-10,000 worth of equipment to get a relative responsiveness from a self-hosted LLM.


    Anyone downvoting clearly doesn’t understand the hardware requirements to be able to run an LLM with a significant model that rivals ChatGPT. ChatGPT is a multi-billion dollar AI cluster…

    OP specifically asked what kind of hardware you need to run a similar AI model with the same relative responsiveness, and GPT4 has 1.8 trillion parameters… Why would you lie and pretend like you can run a model like that on a fucking raspberry pi? You’re living in a dream world… Offline models like that require 128 GB of RAM which is $900-1200 in RAM alone…


  • which lowers prices until the market adjusts.

    It depends on the market. If producing less food with the same resources costs more, prices will rise–especially on large commercial farms, which dominate the U.S. agricultural sector.

    For example, a farm designed to grow 10,000 acres of beans can’t simply reduce production to 5,000 acres due to lower demand and expect prices to drop. The unused 5,000 acres still incur costs, and farmers won’t absorb that loss–they’ll pass it on as higher prices.

    Additionally, some grocery chains buy produce through futures contracts. If these chains sell their futures for a profit, they secure produce at a bargain, cutting into farming profits. This discourages farmers from offering futures in subsequent seasons, forcing grocers to buy bulk products at higher prices instead of securing cheaper futures.
