It's so easy to create datasets from PDFs, and train models now, with tools like the one provided by companies like Unsloth. 😬👎 #copyrights vs #fairuse

I was able to test with a Nvidia 6GB VRAM GPU (almost mandatory) on a 15 years old RIG using 32GB of DDR3 ram. It works as per caveats (hallucinations), I was able to finetune Qwen 3B models. ✅

Great hands-on experience overall, which doesn't break the bank & laws.

Conclusion : genAI is unhealthy for #innovation.
