GPU

For an app that looks at your private photos, the machine learning cannot phone home, so every model in Loupe runs on your own machine, on a single consumer graphics card.

A lot of the small jobs I was paying a hosted model to do did not need a frontier model at all, so I started running open-weight models on my own GPU box and let the routine work run for free.

Reskinned davidgomez.cc into a Swiss/International typographic system, stood up a GPU box and proved face-embedding on CUDA, and hand-built a regenerable wiki over every one of my notes.
