On: Nvidia drivers are detecting and reporting LLaMa/L...

Why would Nvidia be concerned with this?

I guess what I'm asking is what are Llm's used for? I googled that it was Large language model but I don't know what that means.

Its what things like Bard and ChatGPT and BLOOM are all based off of. You need GPUs to load the weights into memory of to run them (typically).

Thanks.

Why would Nvidia want to prevent someone from doing it though (I guess they have a competing product?), and why should any consumer accept being prevented from doing it on hardware they've purchased? Is that even legal?

To get a cut of the compute-cake. See: Nvidia LHR GPUs
