Yes, you certainly could put that on a chip. And people are doing it, for smaller models. The question is how big that chip would be for something like Fable, which is generally estimated in the trillions+ of parameters, and if, given the

I'm working on some social media analysis tools for Bluesky. It's unbelievable that there's an active social network for which you can see all the data.

I don’t disagree. But I also wonder if there even is an objective “right” answer in a lot of cases. If the goal is for computers to replace humans in a task, then the computer can only get the right answer for that task if humans agree what
