Look at the Autonomi project. They are building a serverless datacenter that uses the spare resources of phone, computers of ordinary people. It is opensource. In Star Trek we never saw a server room. This is the end of the data center.

[@particle_wave7614]

That’s been done for many years now. That’s not new. The problem is that all of the crappy office computers and smartphones and laptops don’t actually add up to a ton of compute power, and there’s massive latency issues compared to a real data center. Data centers are far more efficient at what they do than combining tons of random computers that are hundreds of miles apart all running different hardware. And looking at a fictional sci fi TV show from the 60’s is not a substitute for actual research. I don’t think trillion dollar companies would be dumping billions of dollars into server farms if it wasn’t the best way to do it.

[@codycast]

@@particle_wave7614thank you for saving me the time. This dude made the dumbest comment I’ve seen in a while.

[@polygon2744]

@@particle_wave7614 Clearly you have not looked into Autonomi. It has a long history that goes back before Bitcoin. It has never been done. Nodes will be run from home devices as well as data centers. A decentralized encrypted serverless internet with permanent storage has not been done well except for Autonomi. The network never has your keys. Files are decrypted and encrypted locally before being chunked at 8 copies per chunk and randomly distributed in XOR space. Pay once to upload download free forever. Cost to store increases as the network fills up to encourage more nodes to be run. Server farms are used now because that is the only way to do it currently. It also allows for centralization which corporations love. Data centers love locking people in and charging them to leave. Check it out.

[@mxguy2438]

You have to figure that even without more compute, existing models can be retrained with synthetic data that by nature reduces noise and increases fidelity while shrinking the dataset... reducing cost. Likewise, refinements in the models themselves, and interaction between models can continue to improve results. In other words, you can have 100x100x100 give a 1,000,000 result at a cost of 100+100+100=300, or you can get a similar result and one shot 1,000,000 at a cost of 1,000,000.

[@tomcraver9659]

Probably Facebook will do it first - but the next phase business model may be 'paired models'. You run a small or smallish model on your device or company server, keeping all your data private. But occasionally the smaller model will find a problem it can't solve, and will query a really smart model run by the big Ai corporation. The big and small models will have been trained and tuned to work together in this fashion. Generally the large model won't get the real data assoicated with the problem - if necessary, the small model will synthesize example data for the problem it needs the big model to help with. Only if that's not working, would a human be brought into the loop to authorize running the big model on the real data needed to resolve the problem - with the corporation promising, pinkie-swear, that it's all sandboxed and kept private and so on.

But at the end this video was focused more on why we will have a labor issue in the near future as most jobs will no longer be needed as Agents will be able to do this faster. 1000x if not more. Off the wall math: 1 agent can replace 50 jobs x billion of agents = over 50 billion jobs replaced.

How do we solve a complex problem? The problem is divided into several smaller problems that can be solved independently of each other. Each problem is assigned to a team of specialists. If they are not able to solve the problem, it can be further divided into smaller, easier-to-solve problems, or the task can be passed on to the next level with more capable specialists. This type of organisation is ideal for an architecture based on AI agents and can solve the most complex tasks without requiring the highest level of intelligence at each level.
