Ah, yes, sorry. No, he does not have a point. A data center is not more “effective” nor in fact economical or sensible. Even logically, rationally, ethically, scientifically… like, I refute his point, in its entirety. Mostly because i’m not a hypercapitalist but also because compute pooling seriously is not a good idea to begin with. It’s fragile. It’s insecure. Dangerous in so many ways. If people do not fight against cloud control, they will eat up our final rights and consume entire humans. I don’t like megacorp entities and the way they listen with hidden microphones and fingerprint us, just for perverse sharing as a literal commodity, with no shame because a demonic autonomous system cannot feel. It can only grow. I just meant no to that.
In that sense, I like the idea brought by one of the commenters to make BOINC-like decentralized computing network that would utilize idle hardware on people’s computers. This can be tailored for LLMs, too.
This way, everyone could access the technology without having to pay billionaires and without all that datacenter buildout, and the people-owned hardware would be put to good use.
It’s important to own means to compute. Queuing and blasting gpus and cpus att 100% is a trick notion, in reality it will be used for less important jobs due to the economy of priority, and the hardware is worn down. The proposed network can be used for things like fold @ home type efforts, or communal efforts. But nobody wants a device screaming in their home, and if you gain points or crypto or similar it probably attracts an investments crowd. I just don’t believe in the idea at all. It’s been possible to make for a long time, and is clearly only attractive to this fool because he is a pseudo intellectual advertisers for hyperscalers that think owning compute means owning the world. They’re not only morally corrupt, they are incorrect and idiots that will lose their attempt and be punished by their respective megacorp demonic entities and replaced with new pseudo intellectual advertising personalities
No
Care to elaborate?

Thanks for sharing.
