LAION is working on an open chatgpt like model [0] and there is a project discussed here recently that is about running the llms on single gpus [1]

I agree, there is a very serious risk of newer AI advances being closed by default, and I think it's not being taken seriously enough.

Even "open" players are still for-profit, say Huggingface. There really needs to be Linux or FSF like players that are motivated by freedom.

As many have said before, there are open GPT models you can use. You can't run ChatGPT yourself, but you don't have the resources to run it anyways.

You can get relatively SOTA models running locally, it just requires a lot of compute.

One day we will be kicked out of our Jobs
