Reply to comment by EmbarrassedHelp in OpenAI executives say releasing ChatGPT for public use was a last resort after running into multiple hurdles — and they're shocked by its popularity by steviaplath153

The ChatGPT model is in the neighborhood of 750GB, so sadly we won't be seeing anything remotely as capable that can run on consumer hardware any time soon.

That easily fits on a $50 1TB ssd 😁

Yep, now you only need a hundred thousand dollars more for a GPU cluster with enough VRAM to run inference with it.

Hahahaha

Now imagine how slow that would be.

There’s a reason these models are run on distributed clusters. A single query to ChatGPT is likely being processed by multiple GPUs across dozens of machines

You need to fit it in GPU VRAM. So go ahead and show me a consumer GPU with 750GB of VRAM.
