Anyone with a multi-GPU cluster at home that has given it a try?

I've seen some people complain about the work of dealign.ai and similar groups, but personally, I fully support it. If LLMs have a lasting effect on society, I'd prefer to see some options that don't have generic corpo-speak anti-liability status quo guards encoded into them by default.

Non-zero chance the lasting impact LLMs have are a bioweapon.

How about developing counters to said bioweapons? That capability should be commoditized too, IMO.

This isn't cybersecurity. You can't use an LLM to create and administer vaccines for all potential bioweapons.

You could say the same thing about libraries and education.

I wouldn’t read too far into that. Claude has busted me down to Haiku multiple times for asking middle school level genetics and biology questions.

And they said they couldn’t say if any of the “bioweapon” safeguards went off on nefarious efforts.

The scary part, if there is one, should be that if an LLM knows how to do something bad, so does google and your local library.

A flawless distillation.

... but even if, likely distilled from models that distilled by just illegally grabbing all the content they could get.
