Harward: get this man over here!

Lol this reminds me of a time when I had KDE desktop environment installed on vanilla ubuntu. I thought I didn’t really need ubuntu’s default desktop environment and decided to ‘purge’ it. I quickly realized my f up when it deleted so many packages and ui started to act weird, I copied the shell’s output to a file just incase, and sure enough I couldn’t login with ui on next reboot. I was somehow able to login to shell and with some awk magic I was able to parse the text file to get all the packages I deleted and lo and behold everything worked just fine. Linux let’s you f’up your OS but it also let’s you fix it, it’s just a skill issue.

I never buy any of the content but I do enjoy consuming content thus from a utilitarianistic point of view, piracy is a moral choice for me. Joking aside, if you can pay for things without a strong financial burden, you should pay.

I found this so far: https://github.com/KoljaB/RealtimeSTT

Maybe I can modify it to use whisper api.

Maybe it has to do with people stealing content to train AI? Atleast now if there is an opportunity to be a part of a lawsuit or smth they can claim they provided a licence. I dunno just a guess

Every year, out of all of your things that are not necessary like jewelery/saving or other non essential items, you are supposed to donate 2.5% of it, or equivalent in money, to a poor person.

Interestingly this would mean that a true muslim will probably never become a multi-billionaire.

Don’t know if it is that expensive for others or not but just sharing cuz it might help someone.

You don’t need to be a dad in order to make dad jokes.

It might not be. Consider that moore’s law is coming to an end. I fully expect more and more products to be cloud based and ai based. I don’t think ai can run on our phone even in the near future. Battery is another issue, you can’t afford to run too much stuff on it.

We as consumers now need to adjust to the ending moore’s law.

Correction, it should be the entire observable universe not the entire universe since light outside the observable universe cannot reach us due to expansion thus anything that travels at speed of light can also not reach us.

I kinda got lost in making that list (just aspergers things) and listed every model i knew.

For a layperson, yeah self hosting isn’t as effective yet. But if someone who studies AI (like me), self hosting is a must. Some use cases are:

Retrain on your own data (big market potential)

Make your own bots with specific applications/use cases (like parse wikipedia before answering)

Bypass censorship (funny story, my friend asked claude to summarize a book on dystopia and it kept telling her to talk about something else cuz dystopia’s were too depressing for claude)

I’ve even heard about models that are specialized for just one task like chatting, or logic puzzles

And lastly, privacy nerds like me

Okay as a broke ass student in a similar situation imma try to help you out before someone offers better advice.

So you have these options: Definitely legal:

1. self host local llama on colab.

2. try hunggingface spaces, you can find a lot of models

3. coehere.ai, a21, crebrium.ai (free trials/freemium)

4. try poe.com (really awesome gpt3.5)

5. perplexity.ai (good for researching articles)

6. you.com (it has internet access like bing but generally more descriptive and useful than bing)

7. bing ai (trys too hard to not hallucinate)

8. claude2 on claude.ai (only available in us and uk so you might need vpn for account creation)

Kinda legal (i think)

1. gptforfree on github (its reversed engineered from other places)

2. chimeragpt discord (gives you free openai api key, includes gpt4 and image generation etc)

3. pocketgpt (based on chimeragpt, this is the closest to what you want. Gpt4 directly in your browser but sometimes it does not work so you might want to try again later)

My piece of advice, use multiple tools since they all kinda have have different advantages. I mostly used gpt4 for smaller things and claude for larger (it has 100k context!)

I have to look up url for pocketgpt, its kinda a small project so couldn’t find it on google. Meanwhile try this if it works https://chat.ylokh.xyz/

Link for pocketgpt: naturegpt.000webhost.com/pocketgpt

Okay thats a fun question to answer.

Disclaimer: i don’t know much about piracy and stuff in general but studied computer science so sharing this just for funsies DO NOT TAKE THIS ADVICE IF YOU ARE SERIOUS!!!

Okay so here it goes:

Buy crypto then use crypto mixers to annonymize it.

Use a webhosting site that accept said crypto.

Use vpn for everything preferably more than one routing from multiple countries like one from west then one from east.

If you can use a vm specifically for everything related to your site to make sure things are contained.

Make sure to not upload from the same id’s as the one you use to create site. Make a user account if you wanna upload anything.

Read up on how other such websites are created to figure out if you are missing something.

Go to the no poop post, rather than eating things as suggested, vomit them. Since eating them makes you poop less, vomiting them should make you poop morw. Good luck!
