As the AI market continues to balloon, experts are warning that its VC-driven rise is eerily similar to that of the dot com bubble.

Generative art is actually much easier to run than LLMs. You can get really high resolutions on SDXL (1024x1024) using only 8gb of Vram (although it’d be slow). There’s no way you can get anything but the smallest of text generative models into that same amount of VRAM.
Oh wow, that’s good to know. I always attributed visual graphics to be way more intensive. Wouldn’t think a text generative model to take up that much Vram
Edit: how many parameters did you test with?
Sorry, just seeing this now- I think with 24gb of vram, the most you can get is a 4bit quantized 30b model, and even then, I think you’d have to limit it to 2-3k of context. Here’s a chart for size comparisons: https://postimg.cc/4mxcM3kX
By comparison, with 24gb of vram, I only use half of that to create a batch of 8 768x576 photos. I also sub to mage.space, and I’m pretty sure they’re able to handle all of their volume on an A100 and A10G
