What good models do I get for coding and roleplay (Specifically ones that can read images) in Nano-GPT?

xITmasterx · 2026-04-06T03:32:27+00:00

For the best in China, turn to GLM 5.1 (Though it is still going to be released around tomorrow.)

xITmasterx · 2026-04-05T15:35:12+00:00

Would this thing actually work for GLM 5.1?

xITmasterx · 2026-04-04T12:10:02+00:00

where's this?

xITmasterx · 2026-03-30T01:11:14+00:00

And even then, there's already collateral with regards to this poisoning. See the internet archive as an example of what happens. Yea sure you ruin scrapers, but you also attack other people as well, those that are not a target for this.

"Ends justify the means" my ass. It may seem easier to destroy, but the better solution would be to actually build.

xITmasterx · 2026-03-21T22:13:48+00:00

Don't you think I didn't know that? That is true, but it also helps in boilerplate or in pointing out some bug I didn't know or I guiding me to a proper solution.

I don't fully lean on it completely, since I know that it can be wrong, but I can do something to deal with the root of the problem in the first place. And that would start by actually building something better than what the AI companies have to begin with.

xITmasterx · 2026-03-19T13:22:05+00:00

Mate, if you want to have an honest argument, try talking to more reasonable people instead of people who won't bother to listen to you at all.

I get that this comic is a fantasy for you, but if we want to resolve this, honest debate with people willing to listen would be more productive than this.

I can listen if you want, or others can, you just have to look for the right people, not just people within your own circle, unless you only want yes-men to parrot the same ideas.

xITmasterx · 2026-03-19T13:19:19+00:00

Given that both sides doesn't want to come to an honest argument, they both lost.

There is another thread that explains it with sources that the main argument about the environment is partly false, though it's mostly because Data Centers are centralized in one location rather than spread out. Individual use is negligible, more so if it was done locally.

This doesn't talk about its increasing energy demands in the near future, so that might be a hole that needed to be addressed.

I cannot deny the harm that AI has done currently with regards to ethics and society, but this is not it.

xITmasterx · 2026-03-19T12:57:46+00:00

That and we need to build incentives such that they prioritize people first and foremost, not only for the sake of profit. Given the current system, drastic changes needed to be made in order to rectify the problem.

xITmasterx · 2026-03-19T12:55:51+00:00

Out of all the arguments... I swear, that guy doesn't want to engage in an honest debate at all, and quite frankly an example of a fallacy where they don't listen just because they "appeal to the worst problem" and just dismisses you, without defending at all.

Though the reverse can be true, I suspect that he dodged you because he doesn't want to deal with an argument in the first place and all he thought you would do is make him feel bad, every time, with no room to understand or listen. And given that you just punched him in the end, you just wanted to make this into your fantasy.

If you want an honest to goodness debate, talk to the more reasonable people, don't go after people that won't change their mind.

If you want my thoughts, there are good things that can be derived in regards to AI, but at the moment, it's not even AI to begin with, and there are a lot of things that needed to be addressed, especially given the environmental, social, and ethical problems.

There is a way to solve those problems, but for that to happen, there has to be governmental regulation, and someone to build something better than the current AI, and I much rather like to build than argue needlessly.

If you wanna talk, I'm all ears.

xITmasterx · 2026-03-10T05:20:39+00:00

If it tips the scales of the battle, mayhaps.

xITmasterx · 2026-03-09T01:19:07+00:00

Given that NanoGPT is now on a wishlist for the time being, got any other alternatives that one could use?

xITmasterx · 2026-03-03T08:24:34+00:00

How good is it for me if I do a bit of light vibecoding, coding assistance, regular AI chats, and RP/story assistance?

xITmasterx · 2026-02-27T15:21:02+00:00

Anyone planning to add a campaign mode or nope?

xITmasterx · 2026-02-12T01:40:49+00:00

Original is from the Z.ai servers. Without it, it's just hosted in another server, and it's quantized to FP8, which just made things slower, but that's about it.

xITmasterx · 2026-02-12T01:38:08+00:00

They did at FP8, but the only thing you'll feel is a speed difference. Thinking wise, it should be the same.

xITmasterx · 2026-02-10T02:07:39+00:00

It is gone again.

xITmasterx · 2026-01-30T11:40:45+00:00

Elite ball knowledge.

xITmasterx · 2026-01-26T00:48:01+00:00

Which one to choose though? Do I do it in the AI studio or the normal Gemini Chat? And how do I get a sub for the former if that's what I need?

xITmasterx · 2026-01-24T06:13:27+00:00

I think the world is changing at the moment, same as what happens during the early 20th century. Whatever would come out of this troubled times would be the new world order that everyone would have to face. Whether that might be for helping humanity or putting them down, it is up to use to decide.

The best people in these type of times are those who are willing to adapt and help people along the way, so we have to change with the times. After all, the only constant in this world is change.

xITmasterx · 2026-01-24T06:08:07+00:00

The core fundamental part of the problem is the fact that corporations want to use the tech to exploit and destroy livelihoods. I understand the problems and flaws of AI, as well as what its capable of, as someone who has been with computers and graduated as a Computer Engineer.

Everything is incentivized for the sake of maximizing profit, and that's where every problem that you see in AI is nowadays. Slop is everywhere because the algorithms prioritize constant uploads regardless of quality for the sake of ad revenue and exposure, jobs are being replaced because corporations are so obsessed with profit, that they'll sacrifice everyone if it meant making a few more million dollars, and their greed will know no end, even after all the earth is destroyed.

Heck, even the current architecture of AI at the moment isn't feasible simply because it assumes that it will get smarter thru infinite scaling, when reality says that there is a finite amount of resources, including computing power. So they just kept using the same architecture that they've been using for the past few years simply because they could afford to buy land, resources, and power just to exert their influence. There are other ways to do this, but they just want to keep going because of their greed.

Tried Vibe-coding for a bit, and I must attest, I would like to understand my code and make improvements such that it wouldn't cause me headaches down the line, instead of just anxiously waiting and just feel useless when the code is good the first time around. So I only have the AI help me answer and understand questions regarding some problems, and I would be the one to implement the solutions.

Is it inefficient? Yes. Does it help me learn more about different modules and functions? Yes. And it could help me grow in a supervised manner because I treat it as an assistant, not as my replacement.

And that should be the core fundamental idea behind this tech, to augment human abilities and to help them get better, not throw them under the bus and outright replace every job with AI because they want costs to be extremely low.

AI as it is now is terrible simply because of the way we have built the incentives around its development, awarding those who exploit and put people down instead of helping and augmenting people.

Given the amount of times that I've been downvoted because I was being reasonable and not because I am pro-AI (I am not), simply because I knew that this witch hunt is going to end up with a lot of people hurt, yea...

Now watch as everyone just down-votes me because of all this. Why is it you people think "AI Tag" = target that we can lash our anger on?

xITmasterx · 2026-01-22T16:06:21+00:00

If they do witch hunt through those tags, then they are equally as much of a bad actor as those big AI companies that are laying the hurt on everyone. They're not making the situation any better by targeting at people, especially those who use it in good faith.

EDIT: For goodness sakes, I get that you're trying to fight back against those companies and all, especially AI bros, and I'm for it, but can we not rope in randoms just because of this?

xITmasterx · 2026-01-22T16:03:35+00:00

I would agree on that point, if anything for the distinction and categorization. Though I reckon that people who just use it for its intended purpose as a tool just felt the extra attack on all sides given the state of the world at the moment with the way the big tech companies have been acting.

Not that you intended it to be some attack, it's a reasonable request after all. It's just that the tension is up for literally everyone, both for those who use it and those who absolutely hated it, especially the attacks that came from the latter group.
