- not_your_vase 2y agoNvidia drivers have 100% open source alternatives, just like snap store. It takes 5 minutes of work to get rid of these, and lose 0% functionality. Not like removing OpenAI and substituting with... what exactly?
- franga2000 2y agoI somewhat agree with the original point, but this here is just nonsense. Open source NVIDIA drivers are nowhere close to a replacement for the proprietary ones. If anything, you'd probably lose less accuracy in this project by replacing ChatGPT with one of the Llama variants than than you'd lose graphics performance by switching an Ubuntu desktop from noveau to nvidia.
- not_your_vase 2y agoI see. Well, from my point of view saying that this project is fully open source (this is the 2nd time I quote these words from you) is nonsense, while being only a thin wrapper over a proprietary API.
