Because it’s $400 in USD to get visa tourists. Also, US dumbest leaders decided to tax anyone who leaves with expensive gear which Mac Mini clearly qualifies. So paying extra money on top of Apple’s 100% rate is not viable. Many like me, just get a poxy to mail to them then pay the customs duty fees which is way lower and won’t get people thrown into jail.

Honestly local LLM only makes sense right now with sensitive information, I don't see how $10k will beat $20 claude subscription when it comes to like raw tokens you get. Maybe once RAM/NAND crisis is over.

Well if nobody gives them data, they won't create better models.

In this current environment the dumbest thing anyone can do is to rely on a corporation in any way whatsoever.
The service that exists now may not be there two years from now or could be limited as fuck etc..
Local LLM makes all the sense in the world and it's not like this stuff actually bankrupts any normal working person.
You can get yourself a 5090 + 256gb of RAM for about 10k, or even 128gb to shave off couple of grand and you can still max out DS flash with that.

>>109643591

>until memory prices stabilize in 2028 or so

You mean stabilize to double the price where they're currently. You don't expect the prices to actually fall by 2028 do you?
2027 production has already been sold so next year will hike up the prices even more.
And you can bet your ass that 2028 production will be sold out early next year too, as there's massive FOMO going on in the sector and AI isn't going anywhere, even if the largest companies blew up tomorrow.
We're going to see prices coming down earliest in 2030 and that's optimistic.
And like Anon above me mentioned inflation is a thing too not just the availability aspect. Throw in rising energy prices too and it's a right mess with hardware.
>>
>>109643621
>>silly like 3k tok/s
>We wont get that
Why not? US doesn't have monopoly on AI. If US labs won't be interested in Talaas-but-for-good-model chips you'll have chinks selling them. Just one is enough to make the entire current market obsolete since you'll have the performance of a full B200 rack that costs $500k in a ~5k chip.
>Things have only gotten worse. Crypto shit looks like nothing compared to this
Keep your pants on you hysteric woman. Yes it's an unprecedented supply crunch due to stupid high demand, doesn't mean that memory chips will be expensive forever. DRAM has been cyclical since the 90s

Anon, PCs are not industrial, they’re are PC with high value price and rare materials. There is a $500 countries currency price limit law if the total items you brought equal or greater are brought in Mexico by plane but is not enforced enough for anyone to care. The reason why industrial fee exist is because American companies logistics benefit from transport the goods. No one in USA will hire someone in Mexico even in discount prices. That’s why it exist.

This is the closest I have gotten thus far with krea2 turbo and no lora. I did not prompt for the google logo stuff, I don't want it.
A crisp, saturated color portrait of a mischievous 14-year-old anime girl  head turned playfully to the side but eyes looking directly at the viewer with a teasing, naughty look. She has long, shiny, saturated sky-blue hair with tapered wispy flyaway strands — anime hair vents — that break the outline of her face. Her hair catches the light with bright highlights. Her eyes are a vivid blue with long lashes; her eyelids droop down to touch the tops of her irises and lift to touch the bottoms, giving her a half-lidded, sly look. Her eyes have visible eyelashes at the top corners. She smiles brightly with her mouth open.

She wears a black beret tilted on her head and a crisp white long-sleeved blouse with a sailor collar and a visible button placket, a dark navy bow at the chest, and thin suspenders running over the shoulders attached to her skirt with small skinny diamond-shaped brass buttons on either side. Her skirt is a pleated navy blue with a white stripe near the hem. She has white tights and black mary jane shoes.

She stands facing forward with her right arm raised high, pointing upward with her index finger, while her left hand is clenched in a small fist near her chest, as if cheering or making a declaration. The viewer looks at her from her waist level and no part of her is out of frame. The background is plain white.
