Hmmm… call me suspicious but only a little talk about locally-run AI and almost nothing about privacy from Google’s friends here.
This might be the first episode I completely skip…
I have absolutely zero interest in listening to over an hour of AI talk; in my eyes, it’s a bubble waiting to burst, not to mention the morality (or lack thereof) regarding scraping user generated content, and paid content such as books, without consent of the author(s), and the literal GWh-scale of training a single LLM model.
Same here.
Any chance you could interview some folks from the Home Assistant and/or ESPHome project?
