  • I’ve successfully ran small scale LLM’s on my phone, slow but very doable. I run my main AI system on an older, midrange gaming PC. No problems at all.

    Dicio is a pre-programmed assistant, which one can talk to if one has speech recognition software installed. It has a preset of tasks it can do, in my experience it’s quite incomparable to how LLM’s work.


  • It very much depends on your phone hardware, RAM affects how big models can be and CPU affects how fast you’ll get the replies. I’ve successfully ran 4B models on my 8GB RAM phone, but since it’s the usual server and client setup which needs full internet access due to the lack of granular permissions on Android (Even AIO setups needs open ports to connect to itself) I prefer a proper home server. Which, with a cheap GFX card, is indescribably faster and more capable.

    More context;

    They live in earthquake area, there was a small one there 180 years ago, they’re used to the ground rumbling beneath their legs. Or beds.

    One guy didn’t awake and notice a boulder rolling down one of the hills, ground shaking his entire house. Hit his bedroom straight on and killed him instantly, didn’t wake him up at all. That’s how hardy they are.





  • It’s a bit of both from what I gather. I.e. The Golden State killer was caught through GEDmatch and 23AM users have to manually upload their DNA profile to GEDmatch. On the other hand GEDmatch gave unrestricted, undisclosed access to law enforcement to dig throught their database until users started complaining and it became opt-in to allow LE access.

    Fun fact, GEDmatch is now owned by Qiagen which operates in around 25 countries. I wonder how many DNA profiles they have access to. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve mapped the entire human species to some degree.
