2024 might be the breakout year for efficient ARM chips in desktop and laptop PCs.

"The most exciting tech isn't the thing that currently exists and is being improved and integrated daily, it's this other thing we don't even know for sure will maybe happen."

Right, it’s less exciting now because it’s already here. I’m not expecting radically improved GPT models or whatever in 2024, probably just more iteration. The most exciting stuff there might be local AI tech becoming more usable, like we’ve seen with stable diffusion.

I'm just expecting performance optimisations, especially for local LLMs. Right now there are models as good as GPT-4 (Goliath 120B), but they require 2 RTX 4090 to run.

The models that require less powerful equipment are not as good, of course.

But hopefully, given enough time, good enough models will be able to run with mid end hardware.

"Forget about the possibility that we may finally have developed machines that think, that comprehend the world in a way similar to how humans do and can communicate with us on our level. This new chip design might end up with comparable capabilities to the existing chip design!"

Yeah, there was no need to try to hype this up as the biggest thing ever.

Forget about the possibility that we may finally have developed machines that think, that comprehend the world in a way similar to how humans do and can communicate with us on our level.

That isn't what's happening with "IA" right now.

Which is why I said possibility, I knew picky people would jump on the comment like this.
