โ€‹faqs โ“

  • โ€‹why are we organising this?

    • โ€‹this is an independently organised and self-funded initiative!

    • โ€‹we want to bring the ai builders in singapore closer together and just... build?

โ€‹

  • โ€‹can i join remotely?

    • โ€‹yes - definitely - though we'd love for you to still participate in the presentations at the end of the session

    • โ€‹please email me at cyzgab@gmail.com and we can figure something out

โ€‹

  • โ€‹can i help with organising this or to support this event?

    • โ€‹we'd love to collaborate :) please feel free to email gabriel at cyzgab@gmail.com

โ€‹

  • โ€‹are we supposed to form groups? If so, can I find a group there if I'm coming on my own?

    • โ€‹there's no need to be in a team, and we'll help people find collaborators based on your interests!

โ€‹

  • โ€‹will we get any access to gpus for training?

    • โ€‹nope! but we can still do finetuning: (1) openai's finetuning apis. (2) if you're using a m-chip macbook, we can also explore using mlx to finetune some 7b models. this repo has an easy example.
