I’ve tried coding and every one I’ve tried fails unless really, really basic small functions like what you learn as a newbie compared to say 4o mini that can spit out more sensible stuff that works.
I’ve tried explanations and they just regurgitate sentences that can be irrelevant, wrong, or get stuck in a loop.
So. what can I actually use a small LLM for? Which ones? I ask because I have an old laptop and the GPU can’t really handle anything above 4B in a timely manner. 8B is about 1 t/s!
I’m not storing chat logs.
Not creating any kind of public database either. It’s a private tool. Its purpose isn’t to massively-collect data about all of twitch either - it’s to provide reminders for social situations. If anything, it’s an accessibility tool for the disabled.
Again - Not storing chat logs. They are processed for information and that information inferred. I am storing reminders for the twitch streamer to talk about a certain subject at a certain time. If I put a reminder in my phone to remember to tell you happy birthday because I saw it on twitch; am I “creating a database of user information”? No. I’m creating a reminder for myself to remember to say happy birthday.
Having a computer help me remember those things isn’t a violation. Hell, even something like Microsoft’s new AI in windows does the same thing - are THEY violating twitch TOS when you have a browser window open? The answer is no.
No, nor should they be required to.
When they mention not wanting to talk about something, that’s listed as something they don’t like to talk about, so in a way, yes.
Additionally, I instruct the ‘agent’ to disregard anything political or religious. - Though so far it’s not very good at distinguishing those things. Additionally it’s easy to feed it false information though it usually fixes it over time.
