"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

If my kids learn to build out their on prem server and code their own ai bot friend then I'll be there every step of the way to support them.

None of this stuff is actually difficult. For the front-end, I'd recommend Silly Tavern, which also offers recommendations for the backend, quite a few of which can be run locally, assuming you have a decently powerful PC. And the bots themselves are basically made up of a short text describing their personality. The whole thing is about as difficult as assembling Ikea furniture, and you should encourage your kids to seek out more challenging personal projects.
