@davidrevoy I feel that, running fast-whisper and speech-to-phrase for HomeAssistant Voice locally. Superb Comic! 👌

@davidrevoy Great Comic as usual. It's fun to see the story progress every week. Can't wait to see next week's where Pepper still isn't done./sarcasm

@davidrevoy And that is exactly the big lie. The magic of brute force token jumping your way to a patch only works if you have gigawatts of Nvidia filled data center powered by methane jet engines. And nobody knows the actual cost of any of this. You try it locally and it's just making your m4 laptop, that normally churns Blender Cycles renders in seconds, crazy hot to touch and takes hours instead of seconds. It seems way less efficient than ... blockchain.

@jimmac True, my local tests here were mostly with https://flathub.org/en/apps/com.jeffser.Alpaca (advantage of being easily removed and leave the computer clean after test). I tried few models available, but even on my workstation, I saw it was slow. Very educational to imagine how screaming some distant CPU and GPU must be on the servers of the AI compagnies, and how they make it totally invisible to the end users who are asking questions on their phone 'for the fun', not even questioning the (hidden) cost of it...

@ariarhythmic I think she is conflicted about it, she experienced many new possibilities with it (calling spells, discussing with tree spirits) and even if it always backfired on her, she is interested to keep experimenting. Her motivation (not really said here) is to get an Avian Intelligence that can rebuild her house without having to pay for premium for her AI Parrot. You check the last episode in order, I write them to shape a larger story: https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/webcomics/miniFantasyTheater__Avian-Intelligence.html

@davidrevoy @jimmac Yep. I tried, just to see, if running a smaller targeted model in something like Ollama would be any more interesting to use with Home Assistant than it's built-in parser system (which I've added to with my own automations).A _slight_ mis-hear of me setting a timer caused it to spew out some completely useless garbage on significant delay.Even making HA matches take priority, it'd still, using the very thing LLM's are _supposed_ to be good at, screw up interpretations. "is the fan on in the hallway?" and it'd say "I don't know about any fans in Home Assistant hallway" or something but the fan was very on, and very in the Hallway room (later trying the correct HA syntax answered exactly right VERY fast).I got rid of it. I'd rather be able to ramble at my speaker and say "Pizza pasta put it in your mouth" and it reply with "I'm not aware of any area called 'your mouth'" in 2 seconds or "Sorry, I didn't understand that" if I'm even more unintelligible (or just 'off' with my command), and only have the STT and TTS overheads on my GPU, than have the dice roller fuck up repeatedly.The only thing it was halfway decent at was me basically tossing it a JSON dump from the weather forecast command and going "Here make a conversational thing about the next couple days". It was actually pretty good at that, but not worth it. Rewrote that as just my own writing to say exact temps and conditions for each of the next 3 days. My brain can track the similarities hearing it.

@davidrevoy here it's not that slow...... I use a model to filter job postings (as a fallback to when the regexes return unreliable results) which is sooo small that it's unreliable...... well, every model is unreliable, so it's just more unreliable than usual.

@mohs @ariarhythmic Interesting, I'll see where it goes. I'm particularly conflicted on the episode of next week, happening a 1st April; my brain has mixed up feelings: should I do a sad thing (to change and contrast)? or something unusual? or another technique (eg. ASCII art). Many possibilities, many opportunity to have bad taste and be excused for it too ^ ^

@davidrevoy I don't know if she's a witch, a mage, or artificer, but heck, she's a pretty magic user with abilities in mechanics and technology, that deserves respect

@landelare Yes, but necessary for her (and global story) dramatic curve, and her relation with it (and the No AI Club) she once was part of.This episode was one of the most problematic for me; but I wanted to cover an aspect of the 'slow running locally' to make her interested to walk to the data centers.

@davidrevoy This is so true. At least it taught me about keeping backups of everything cause it's a matter of when, not if it fails a task and cannot backtrack.I was lucky to get a sufficiently powerful enough GPU but even that is slow compared to hosted models.Oh well like her, I have an itch to scratch and it's llms.

@davidrevoy Magical or not it behaves the same. 🤔 ohhh.... There is a solution. Tell her don't do it herself. But get an Avian Intelligence from a provider then it may get faster. Avian will transfer data anyway while it gets the chance anyway 🫣

@davidrevoy that the reminds me of the Slouching Towards Bedlam text adventure, a geeky steampunk adventure. https://ifdb.org/viewgame?id=032krqe6bjn5au78You can play it offline by grabbing the Z5 file and playing it with Lectrote, Gargoyle, Frotz or any other z-machine emulator.The gblorb file can be run on Gargoyle/Lectrote. It's the same game.
