Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

ChatGPT 3.5 and Google Gemini mostly. Someone Microsoft copilot.

I mostly choose the one that’s most convenient in that moment. I don’t ever measure performance or capability.

My local home server doesn’t have a gpu yet, but I might get one to run some models locally, but I’m not sure whether I care to spend the money to do that or not.

Wow, either you are much more skilled than anyone I know at these tasks, and/or you work in a very different way. I tried for two weeks to figure out how to get something useful out of it, but got only garbage.

It was very good at generic text, much less so at concise, insightful, technical, or argumentative text, which is most of what I sell.

There are some models you can use on as little hardware as a RaspberryPi. I'm willing to bet there's a pre-trained model out there that suits your needs with whatever hardware you have. Could be worth a try
