  • Even the article you linked states that there is no definitive evidence on the source of the fire.

    BYD claims a contractor mishandled equipment and ignited insulation material, which sparked the greater incident. Others speculate that a faulty battery was the source of the fire. Nobody is talking about body panels… and a faulty electric motor definitely can start a fire.

    Nobody knows for certain yet, so I don’t know why you’re painting such a strong narrative… other than to antagonize BYD with sensationalism.












  • Oh, certainly. The reason I focused on speed is because an idiot using a shoddy LLM may not notice it’s hallucinations or failures as easily as they’d notice it’s sluggishness.

    However, the meaningfulness of the LLM’s responses are a necessary condition, whereas the speed and convenience is more of a sufficient condition (which contradicts my first statement). Either way, I don’t think the average users knows what hardware they need to leverage local AI.

    My point is that this “AI” hardware gives a bad experience and leaves a bad impression of running AI locally, because 98% of people saw “AI” in the CPU model and figured it should work. And thus, more compute is pushed to datatcenters.
