> This is why open source software and non-walled garden systems are so vital.

Are there people organizing to develop, deploy, run and provide “AI on demand” for free to people?

Like Wikipedia but for AI.

How much money would be needed? How many volunteers? Who wants to build this?

Stable Horde, though its p2p rather than centralized nonprofit https://stablehorde.net/


Even better! Is there a marketing team?


Very few open source projects have a marketing team.


I think you just met them:)


Don't we have LLaMA? The quantized version is runnable on top end consumer hardware, which is within reach for many people if a bit expensive. You can also use it on a rental GPU unit from something like vast.ai or another commercial vendor. AI on demand for free is not a viable economic proposition for now, lest you create a way to vouch for legitimate users and purposes, but at that point most people would rather pay a bit. Maybe in a few years it will become economical.


It's not legal to use LLaMA for commecial purposes. We need an open source alternative. Not something that was leaked.


Isn't this already built with https://huggingface.co/ ?
