@digitaltrends: CrankGPT from Squeez Labs is a concept device that runs a local AI chatbot powered entirely by a hand crank. To generate responses, users must manually produce the energy needed to run the system. Media: squeezlabs / YouTube #artificialintelligence#ai#technews#technology
Imagine finding this thing in a post apocalyptic world

I'm against AI in all its forms but it is a matter of degrees, and this is probably the most innocuous possible form lol

if it truly runs completely locally off the energy generated with the crank... that's pretty damn cool.

It seems this video is capitalizing on the fact that people aren't aware of the costs of AI. Once an AI model is trained, the power required for it's use is relatively small. The training is what costs water/electricity.

Solves nothing, all the power use from ai is at the server, this is a worse phone

seems like a pain to crank, you should add a waterwheel to make it more efficient

probably max 4b parameter lol but with that speed is likely 1b or less

This is only useful as an idea for a found object in an apocalypse novel.

now how many times did you have to crank it to train the model

for anyone wondering, it is real and it is actually self hosted / powered and the code database is available for free on github !

is this entirely contained within the system, or is it just basic computer parts and the response comes from a data center?

you should put a little beep at the end of the llm’s speech so you know when to start cranking again
