    > my team’s goal is ultimately to make AI much cheaper and lower-latency, and I don’t think that’s good for people right now

    I have a lot of bones to pick with Google's morality, but "democratizing the transformer and LLMs" is at the bottom of my list.

      So far, 100% of things "democratized" by big tech have been bad for people.

        Oh, that's true. I just remembered that I hate Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube, Android, Gemma, Google Docs and free CalDAV syncing.

        Woe is me, victim of the 21st century separated from my true calling of paying for software.

        Yes, and Tensorflow too.

          Does Gemma belong to this list? Not that impactful
