The cost to build an LLM
1) the quality of life for the people living in a city near quality fibre
2) more computer chips than we can build
3) enough power to be noticeable in a graph of all human power consumption
4) The lives of a few thousand people in the global south too desperate to not take a tagging job
The cost to build a "small ethical model that runs on your phone"
1) An up to date LLM
