โfaqs โ
โwhy are we organising this?
โthis is an independently organised and self-funded initiative!
โwe want to bring the ai builders in singapore closer together and just... build?
โ
โcan i join remotely?
โyes - definitely - though we'd love for you to still participate in the presentations at the end of the session
โplease email me at cyzgab@gmail.com and we can figure something out
โ
โcan i help with organising this or to support this event?
โwe'd love to collaborate :) please feel free to email gabriel at cyzgab@gmail.com
โ
โare we supposed to form groups? If so, can I find a group there if I'm coming on my own?
โthere's no need to be in a team, and we'll help people find collaborators based on your interests!
โ
โwill we get any access to gpus for training?
โnope! 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.
โ
โwe'll update this list of FAQs along the way - submit you questions here or reach out via twitter
