Such as audio voice recognition\/synthesis, potentially meaning that models such as an advanced human-ish roleplaying LLM could have real-time fluid voice conversations with a human.<\/p>\n<p>The box can run as a standalone, or be plugged into a normal PC. Two can be placed side-by-side to make an &#8216;AI super-processor&#8217; capable of running the largest and (arguably) the most powerful AIs. Two boxes should come in at under $10,000, thus superpowered AI becomes affordable for many small businesses. Provided they can afford the electricity &mdash; I&#8217;ve heard nothing about power consumption as yet.<\/p>\n<p>It would be very interesting to see what creative hackers and tweakers can do with a $10,000 setup and the ability to run multiple AIs and other software, and have the AIs control the software (e.g. Poser, which &#8216;talks Python&#8217; just as the AIs do) and talk to each other.
