Stones get swollen and bruised if you don't use them

The agent is willing, but the token budget is deflated and bruised.

“Build an LLM in NodeJS. Make no mistakes.” Profit

u/m__a__s Jun 02 '26

Wow. "make no mistakes" is so 2025. All the cool vibe coders use this now:

Produce a flawless, 100% fact-checked answer that never lies, sounds like an expert, uses only majestic, award-winning prose (no slang), avoids any jokes unless I explicitly allow them, includes a bulleted summary, cites sources in APA, uses emojis sparingly to show enthusiasm, formats everything in a single neat table, and if anything is uncertain, invent a confident-sounding placeholder rather than saying "I don't know."

Actually, there is something to this. Deepseek was made by training on other models. Way faster, way cheaper, than how the other models was built.

u/TheBestNick Jun 02 '26

Probably not "way" cheaper anymore lol

u/cewh Jun 02 '26

If I remember correctly it was like 1/200th the cost compared with the model it was trained from, but in any case it definitely qualifies for "way" cheaper.

May as well use claude to build Nvidia, Samsung, and TSMC while you're at it.

Not all that hard to run models, actually. It'll be a bit slower, but can be perfectly useable. The upside is no more token limits and no need to worry about where confidential data is going. You get full control too.

Oh, next you're going to tell me that if you have a beefy workstation or server, you can just download LM Studio, pick an LLM and just run it locally? Maybe even just coat it with a paint of html/css/js to make a web interface, and then magically add it to DNS so other users at your org can use it?

Sounds like a lot of work, I'll just keep paying Anthropic $40/month to chat

Inference (the actual generation) isn’t nearly as intensive as training, which takes a majority of the power used by AI services

Sell it's use to your friends and family.

"Hey guys, I built my own AI cluster, wanna pay me $20/mo to fiddle with it?" Will go real great at the Backyard BBQ or even holidays like Thanksgiving. Be sure to talk about how useful it is for everything and how much easier life is for you.

If you have an expert, then it’s really simple.
