Yeah it says it's a parody, but then in the same sentence it refers to the other "OpenJev" implementations, which are basically the same thing with marginally more effort. And it doesn't imply that those things are parodies too (and I don't think they are parodies).
Somehow the HN crowd has a bunch of "professionals" who don't care about error rates and think that a Qwen model running on a potato is frontier intelligence.
1) get local model to run on the electrical output of a potato 2) accept Nobel price
You didn't specify time frames; 1) is doable for a very short time, with a lot of coulomb caching in between the computer and the potato :).
(For more realistic solution, surely someone must be working on optronics - these models just beg to have their weights cleverly etched into stacked sheets of plastic, so they can do inference for free on a beam of light.)
