There are so many out there, with varying benefits, risks, and ethics. I’d like to know what to recommend when asked, and also what I could use for myself.
Some areas that could be good for discussion:
- Locally hosted models (both for low and high powered devices)
- Open source models (also calling out “open source” models that aren’t actually open source)
- Privacy friendly tools/frontends (ex. DuckDuckGo’s AI chat for anonymous use of some “free” models)
- Unified interfaces for multiple models, or ‘pay as you go’ platforms instead of paying for individual subscriptions
Nope, I’m sticking with money well spent thanks
