Should be "that you can train for $100"

Curios to try it someday on a set of specialized documents. Though as I understand the cost of running this is whatever GPU you can rent with 80GB of VRAM. Which kind of leaves hobbyists and students out. Unless some cloud is donating gpu compute capacity.

A GPU with 80GB VRAM costs around $1-3 USD an hour on commodity clouds (i.e. the non-Big 3 bare metal providers e.g. https://getdeploying.com/reference/cloud-gpu/nvidia-h100). I think it's accessible to most middle class users in first world countries.

Isn’t the whole point to run your model locally?

I'd guess that this will output faster than the average reader can read, even while using only CPU inferencing on a modern-ish CPU.

The param count is small enough that even cheap (<$500) GPUs would work too.
