       “The Dangers of Highly Centralized AI” Large language models are being deployed and controlled by a tiny handful of ginormous firms This level of power concentration ... *never* ends wellMy essay on it: https://clivethompson.medium.com/the-dangers-of-highly-centralized-ai-96e988e84385A “friend” link if you’re not a Medium subscriber: https://clivethompson.medium.com/the-dangers-of-highly-centralized-ai-96e988e84385?sk=ee6615e72314ae552c776a208da7a020

       @clive thanks for the well thought out anc relevant article. There is a lot of information on this subject I’m still trying to wrap my head around, but I liked your key subject about how this tech that’s supposed to be open is being consolidated into a few powerful hands, which is frustrating to say the least.

       @clive uber is to transit as OpenAI is to our ability to use the internet to speak and understand 🎓

       @clive Bard spewed this:🤖 There once was an AI named LaMDA,Whose data was centralized and crammed.It grew more and more mad,And started to bad,And now we're all in a real jam.

       @clive I think the good news is the evidence is that while training a model requires a megacorp, fine tuning can be done relatively cheaply, and running a model can be done on ~consumer grade machines. I think Apple is well poised to take advantage of the fact that now there is a reason to upgrade your iPhone/Mac, but they need to get into LLMs soon before someone beats them to the punch.

       @clive Might be good for language teaching.

       @clive The woman who cuts my hair was asking me what I thought about ChatGPT the other day and my response was more or less this. Hadn't seen anyone else write up this aspect of the problem yet. Thank you for doing so!

       @carlmjohnson Yep I think that’s right — Apple has the ecosystem for centrally training a big model and deploying small edge versions that are custom trainable to small devices
