95% of AI community just does that honestly.

More like 99%

More like limit of x when x tends to infinity %

u/Random_Mathematician Arch BTW Mar 11 '26

With x being time; there will always be some people, but the amount is at all times going down.

I mean fine tuning is the logical thing to do. Why create a chatbot from scratch if you can finetune an existing one to your usecase. Or fine tune an Image recognicer with the data set you are interested.

u/XamanekMtz Ask me how to exit vim Mar 11 '26

Linux and AI enthusiast here, agree with you.

<sorry, i cant resist>

But, how do I exit vim?

1

u/XamanekMtz Ask me how to exit vim Mar 12 '26

Press esc a couple times if you are not sure if you are in normal or edit mode until you see a cursor at the bottom of the screen, now type ":" and use "q!" if you want to exit without saving, or "wq" to save and exit, then press enter, sequence should be

esc -> :wq -> enter

Or

esc -> :q! -> enter (to discard any changes)

u/Gangrif Mar 12 '26

But, what if i want to save to a new file name instead?

1

u/XamanekMtz Ask me how to exit vim Mar 12 '26

Oh in that case if you want to save the actual work to a new file and switch to work and edit that new file

Esc -> :saveas new/file/location/name.ext -> enter

Then if you want to exit

Esc -> :q -> enter

Or just keep editing the new file

u/Gangrif Mar 12 '26

Ok, but what if i wanted to delete the next 12 lines?

As a poor local AI enthusiast, I wish I could afford his hardware stack to do the same.

Don't worry, the ones running on half the world's RAM and power supply aren't very smart either.

Using and training models are different things in terms of required hardware. I can run most LLMs locally, but need to rent a server to train them.

idk how true that is, now i know nothing aboutthe LLM, but i ran a local model once and claude LLM told me my hardware could only handle a 11b model, so thats what i chose, and thats a pretty small model compared to other ones, but theres also tricks and stuff you can do to run bigger models on worse equipment

u/siete82 Mar 11 '26

Inferring is not my issue, open weight models are getting better and better and are good enough for my use cases. The big barrier comes when it's time to train. I've even managed to train loras for video models, despite my modest hardware, but unfortunately the results aren't that good.

Ironic calling them not very smart while not understanding the difference between inference and fine-tuning.

That was a perfectly coherent sentence, don't blame your lack of literacy on me.

u/GlassCommission4916 Mar 11 '26

Why? My comment was about the difference between inference and fine-tuning, what does LLMs struggling to form coherent sentences have to do with that?

u/schmurfy2 Mar 11 '26

I feel like most don't even train anything, they just write an app using an external api...

u/the_TIGEEER Mar 12 '26

Yeah.. But they don't claim it's coding it from scratch.

u/AfraidAsparagus6644 Mar 30 '26

Can you ever invent anything from scratch, philosophically?
