So grateful to see all the bench results, speed results and wonderful projects for which claude or astra helped you! I am so happy to see that you can’t do anything without Anthropic and OpenAI who share (at least) one common obsession : killing local AI for EVER. I mean I understand, they deserve your money and data and you do not really care if they use all insidious / lobbying means to block me from using local AI, but I do. My hardware was expansive you know, and I know there is a link with their actions. The futur will certainly be worst, and my little finger told me the more powerful they get the closer to their goal they become. So forgive me, I am just a normal guy who think that even if fable is the best, giving them my money is like fucking myself. So yeah if I need cloud, you know what I’ll go with providers that feed the world with openweight CONSTANTLY. HOW THE FUCK CAN PEOPLE BE HAPPY TO SHARE THEIR PSEUDO LOCAL SHIT WHEN THEY ARE DEPENDANT ON THE CLOUD?   submitted by   /u/takoulseum [link]   [comments]
