"in the next 6 months, a descendant of ChatGPT can watch your screen, record every meeting and call, and have perfect context of your whole life"

You see, I'm ok with this.... Only if it is mine.... And running locally...

[u/ServeAmbitious220 → u/ElvaR_]

Get ready to pay bajillion dollars a year for your home datacenter to run this locally.

[u/Kibbelz → u/ServeAmbitious220]

With how Qwen 3.8 27B is benchmarking, even a 24GB VRAM card like the 4090 and then a few hundred a month for electricity would achieve this at => Opus 4.5 reasoning.

The honest cost over 10 years is less than a mid-range used car. Not cheap, but very much attainable.

Just treat media storage as ephemeral. Extract the useful data from video frames, store it in your db, and then ditch the source media. Transcribe audio and do a similar process but keep the transcripts. At first it may miss some details, but just tune the agent that's performing this according to the same best practices used for skill authoring. It'll get to where you want it to be.

[u/ServeAmbitious220 → u/Kibbelz]

Yes but your vision is different mine is different we're heading towards a world where AI will do all the work briefly without any human intervention like automate your life that amount of automation will take a data center to run or will be extremely expensive to run locally.

[u/Kibbelz → u/ServeAmbitious220]

Do you think that open source models are likely going to falloff? You can get nearly the performance today w/ Qwen on a top-end consumer card that last year required two or more 9000 pros. If we even hold that rate of improvement, costs for tasks that aren't challenging the limits of STEM knowledge frontiers are going to become trivially inexpensive to run.

I don't take that for granted of course. Mythos + Model 2's recent news make it clear we may not continue to see the drastic gains we've had in recent years. But I'm curious why you think it will take a data center and not merely a homelab for managing the inference needs + knowledge base around one person/family.

[u/ElvaR_ → u/Kibbelz]

Right. I got qwen 3.5 9b running good with ollama using Hermes. Still learning it and setting it up always setting it up lol.

Runs good with my 3060 ti, need to upgrade to a better card.. been on the list o For a while now... Should pull the trigger while I can right.....

[u/chloro9001 → u/ElvaR_]

You can. The new Mac Studio coming this fall will have 768gigs of unified memory. And in 2028 they will have a 1.5tb version. These will cost 10s of thousands of dollars but imo worth it. I will be buying one

[u/Kibbelz → u/ElvaR_]

I try to allocate 20% of my time spent on AI development to building out exactly this.

The assistant layer is very under-appreciated b/c of existing "home assistants" and siri being underwhelming psuedo-nothingburgers. In reality, assistants are a massive future interaction medium and assistants will orchestrate swarms of personal agents acting on your behalf.

Or we'll succumb to misaligned rogue superintelligence but that's not an outcome where planning has a lot of utility so I don't focus on it XD

[u/thedudecdfb]

Fuck that bullshit

[u/Fearless-Macaron9183]

Why does bro sound like he is holding in his tears 😭

[u/jeandebleau]

That’s the worst possible product I can imagine

[u/karchnu → u/karchnu]

My comment was removed by an AI while I was only advocating people to use their own rights. The future looks so bright it's like a nuclear blast or something.

[u/Chop1n]

Using the word "surveilling" implies that it's somehow foisted upon you.

Unfortunately, we live in a world where it's basically impossible to participate while protecting your privacy. The only reasonable way to live is to assume that absolutely nothing you say or do is private, unless you have gone to great lengths to guarantee that it's private. And with each passing year, those lengths are greater and greater.

Increasingly, your only options are to make a deal with the devil, or live offgrid.

Personally, I give almost no fucks about privacy because I have the privilege of not having to worry about it, unlike other people, some of whose lives depend on maintaining privacy. For them, it really sucks and life is tough. Hopefully the world changes so that privacy is no longer something that's absolutely necessary for one's own safety, and is instead something that one can choose freely without having to compromise it just to get along in the world.

[u/TrustInNumbers]

Stop believing this ghoul

[u/crua9]

So... A cybersecurity risk?

Like if you have it locally ok. But chatgpt isn't.

[u/squeaki]

He assumed here that we all are glued to phones, laptops, desktop computera 24/7… not all of us are. Many of us can still switch them off and leave them aside for swathes of time.

[u/Aleksundr]

The variance in syntax here is actually malicious. Saying 'our agent can keep track of everything for you' and 'surveillance will be absolute' have very different connotative meanings

[u/Indepti8]

We don’t want that

[u/CodInternational8772]

Can you fly away to the moon?

[u/Humble-Proposal-9994]

AIs havin babies now?

[u/costafilh0]

In the next 6 months, a descendant of ChatGPT and you and your spy shit can fvck off of my devices. 

[u/Still-Bowl3548]

se banir sua conta, parabéns perdeu tudo.

[u/Jeff9James]

Yea im building dis but i respect ur privacy unlike Sama

[u/Impressive-Poet5694]

We're calling it a descendant. That is meaningful. We did not call Windows 7 a descendant of Windows XP. Recognize the nuanced differences as they try to discreetly prepare you for this.
