Doubt it. GenAI requires a shitton of resources, both in storage and for processing. Training a GenAI requires clusters upon clusters of NPUs and/or GPUs, even more than crypto miners and 3D renderers. The full storage requirements are proportional to the amount of training data you give, so expect them at least to be dozens of gigabytes long.
I doubt AI companies do it “for science” (yeah, right) so if they’re shit down by a court of law they’ll just shut the thing down. They can upload the code somewhere, but without training data their engine is useless.
If this ends with LLMs getting shutdown to some degree, I wonder if it’s going to result in something like a Pirate Bai.
Are there any historical examples of a technology as valuable as LLMs being effectively shut down?
Nuclear energy.
Sort of joking.
Great question, but unfortunately it’s out of both my knowledge and will-to-research base.
Stem cell research
Nice example. I think embryotic is the asterisk to it though.
Not to be confused with, “Pirate Bae”, the pirate dating site for those endowed with abundant doubloons.
