A Reddit discussion asks: if you had a stack of high-end GPUs on your desk, but running local LLMs was banned, what would you actually build?
Suggested directions include:
- Niche scientific workloads or simulations?
- Weird non-text generative tasks?
- Distributed systems experiments?
- Rendering / media pipelines?
- Homelab experiments that need horsepower?
- Completely unhinged personal projects?
