How do GPU based Graphics Cards make it possible to use sophisticated Neural Networks and AI nested inside of the LLMs (and for Bit-Coin Mining, too) on Desktop and Laptop Computers?

Without getting lost in the weeds of the obvious political overtones involved in this emerging threat, THIS incident brings into focus that the general information on the possible elements brought together to commit American Terrorism are freely available on the Internet, an Off-Line LLM was NOT involved in the events covered in what recently happened in the Tesla Explosion at a Las Vegas Nevada Trump Hotel. Rather the Driver of the involved Tesla Truck used Open-AI's On Line "Chat-GPT" Large Language Model in the furtherance of his self-destructive plans:

Two years ago... if you were at a get-together with friends and mentioned that, "Some day... "You'll be able to Type in a suggestion to your Desk Top Computer asking it to create a Painting or a Photograph... and it will do so...from the words alone..." it would have raised more than a few eyebrows in serious doubt.

But *Things* are different now...

Ever since the creation of "Stable Diffusion" as an AI capable of doing this and the release of their Proprietary Source Code to the world at large, anyone with a computer sporting a powerful CPU with plenty of RAM and a Top-Of-The Line nVidia Graphics Card can do what follows.

Last night, I performed the One Button Download and Installation of "Easy Diffusion" from GITHUB onto my Dell Precision Model # 7720 Work Station Laptop using the Linux Mint Ver. 22.1(Xia) OS (With the nVidia P5000 16GB GPU RAM installed, running on the Fastest available Samsung NVME M.2 2TB SSD 7.5GBPS transfer speed and 64 GB of RAM) ...and then Tested its "Out Of The Box" Abilities with these words typed into the Prompt Line:

"A Pumpkin, lit up from inside by a Candle, sitting on a Fence Post outside of a Cemetery."

And then followed on with a more elaborate Prompt Line that said...

"A Pumpkin, lit up from the inside by a Candle, sitting on a Fence Post, near a Winding Road leading to a Spooky House on a Hill, with a Blue Twilight Sky and Stars appearing along the Horizon."

I pressed the Enter Key 20 times in a row...and these images appeared on screen. My system was OFF LINE during this event:

halloween1.jpeghalloween2.jpeghalloween3.jpeghalloween4.jpeghalloween5.jpeghalloween6.jpeghalloween7.jpeghalloween8.jpeghalloween9.jpeghalloween10.jpeghalloween11.jpeghalloween12.jpeghalloween14.jpeghalloween15.jpeghalloween16.jpeghalloween17.jpeghalloween18.jpeghalloween19.jpeghalloween20.jpeg

For Windows Users... These Instructions will explain how to do this "Easy Diffusion" FREE Software Installation:

Part 1:


This Video delves into how to use, refine and enhance the performance of this application:

Part 2:


Now...Just imagine ...How Many JOBS this "Thing" will instantly eliminate where Human Creativity and Artistic Talent once allowed so many people to earn a Pay Check... and enjoy a Decent Living.

Obtain the Training and Learn How to Become a Prompt Engineer ...and seek those New AI Jobs On Line while Human Beings STILL have an opportunity to keep pace with the rapidly changing World of Artificial Intelligence.

In a second "Test Prompt" of the "Easy Diffusion" AI... With my Computer Internet Access set at "OFF LINE"... I posed a request that gleaned 20 completely different, almost "Other Worldly" image responses about something all 1950s SCIFI Fans can identify with... but with consecutive unique image creations that I would never have imagined:

"A realistic close-up image of GORT (The ROBOT from the Movie "The Day The Earth Stood Still."...)

GORT1.jpegGORT2.jpegGORT3.jpegGORT4.jpegGORT5.jpegGORT6.jpegGORT7.jpegGORT8.jpegGORT9.jpegGORT10.jpegGORT11.jpegGORT12.jpegGORT13.jpegGORT14.jpegGORT15.jpegGORT16.jpegGORT17.jpegGORT18.jpegGORT19.jpegGORT20.jpeg

Did you notice... The AI printed out GORT's name on his Chest Plate as "GOR'T" ...Hmmm....What's with that Apostrophe?

I think that in order to encourage many of us with decades of either "Useful Employment" ahead... or perhaps for those unfortunate enough to suffer as the result of AI Job Displacement... the "Loss of Employment" in the very near future... Please consider this Scenario as "Food For Thought".

Many of us well know that Tom Clancy (an UN-Employed Insurance Salesman) and J.K. Rowling (A Suburban English Divorced Housewife) shared their idea in common of using their Dining Room Tables and Computers with Word Processors to sit right down and begin writing their seminal works.

Between the two of them, they managed to create two entirely new cottage industries in the Entertainment World, with Fiction Novels, resulting in Screen Plays that resulted in producing Many, Many Block-Buster Movies being made and earning BILLIONS of Dollars in revenue (British Pounds Sterling for the Lady...) while also creating THOUSANDS of Job Opportunities World Wide.

With an update to the present reality of having Large Language Models capable of writing ANYTHING you can imagine out of Whole Cloth.... Imagine how a Young Herbert George Wells might have proceeded back at the turn of of the 19th Century had he the ability to -=SEE=- his imagined Invading Martians being Created "Right Out of Thin, Foggy Air" by simply typing in just a few lines with his core ideas and watch as "Things" like THESE Images I just now "Prompted" ...come into existence on screen.

If H.G. Wells were a contemporary writer, all of this would likewise be possible for him to do, "Right at his Dining Room Table" by simply typing in whatever his basic idea was for "The War of The Worlds" that might "READ" like these images after using the Prompt Line of "Easy Diffusion".

Do you think he would have sold even more copies of his Books... had he published them instead in the now popular Comic Book Genre known as...?

"The Graphic Horror-Sci-Fi Novel"

comme-ça

ATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON1.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON2.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON3.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON4.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON5.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON6.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON7.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON8.jpegATRIPODROBOTHREATENSLONDON9.jpeg

So... Take This Suggestion to Heart...Use Your Imaginations... and pursue the possibilities offered in the New On Line Work Force by becoming a "Prompt Engineer" for companies in need of Human Talents ...while those opportunities still exist. A Google Search along these lines may prove to become your BFF...

This morning ...as a rather strong Thunder-Storm blew through from the Gulf Of Mexico...I thought I would put the "Easy-Diffusion" application through some familiar paces and see what *ITS* creative ideas on two of my favorite vehicles of all time might look like... and perfrom these tasks...entirely OFF LINE:

The Maclaren MP412C
The Chevrolet Trailblazer 2002-2004

This Is Important...

The Images shown below are the interpretation of a Visual Artificial Intelligence using sophisticated algorithms to convert Text to Imagery and although they will all look quite convincing and REAL...They are NOT Photographs or Paintings created by Human Beings.

These Vehicle Images are IMAGINARY and are NOT Production Models of ANY Kind. They are the AI's idealizations alone and not of my creation:

For Regular Folks like us, a VISIT to this Link will ease our minds about setting up an Artificial Intelligence LLM (Large Language Model) that can function Securely -=Off Line=- called GPT4ALL that has the Easiest Installation possibilities for locally hosting YOUR OWN AI on Windows, MAC and Linux Operating Systems.

This AI does NOT require a High End Computer because it provides Users with a wide selection of LLM Optional 1B, 3B, 8B AND 12B LLM "Shoe Sizes' fit for the needs of Average Users with Modest Computing Hardware and Technically Advanced Folks with Higher End Gear as well . Best of all, these LLM selections are Completely FREE.

So far... I've concluded that GPT4ALL is turning out to be the "Best In Show" when it comes to having a Friendly GUI Interface... with the Best LLM Chat Results to date during various Q&A discussions:


GPT4ALL ...FTW!

Just so nobody gets the wrong idea that...

"Well NOW, Bob... You are USING an Off-Line AI LLM in various forms almost daily...(Mostly GPT4ALL) ...Have You Lost Your Original Concerns about AI Alignment and the ever-present and very real possibility that Eliezer Yudkowsky was (and still IS) absolutely right about Humans Facing Down Existential Risk...?"

Not in the least... Watch what happened HERE...and then ask me if my concerns have subsided "in the least"...Because THIS shows just how easy it would be for things to suddenly get out of hand:

THESE are the kinds of developments that might keep @azswiss up at night ...talking to himself...


Next Up... A conversation between Stephen Wolfram, a MATH Computer Science Genius and Technical Man who at present is agnostic on whether or not AN AGI WILL KILL US ALL...!!! versus Eliezer Yudkowski, the Founder of MIRI (The Machine Intelligence Research Institute) ...Ringing The Bell of REASON to SLOW TF DOWN WITH THE HEAD-LONG RUSH TO CREATE AN AGI ...and be suspicious, thoughtful, careful and realize that ...Once You Make ANYTHING that is SMARTER THAN YOU ARE...AND... Has "AGENCY" to Act Independently in The Real World... You Are DONE!

As a Side Bar... My sense of disappointment with Steven Wolfram's efforts to side step all of the important issues that are at the Heart of Darkness should an AI...emerge as a seriously powerful AGI is profound.

If you watch this in the fullness of time, Wolfram appears to be trying to Flim-Flam, Bamboozle and Divert Eliezer with his ostensible Math and Physics "Greatness" without a sound understanding that in most things... Eliezer has either written more (or better) on these subjects than most of the "Geniuses" claiming to be so smart... and then imagine as in THIS case that they can afford to "Pooh Pooh" what Yudkowsky is proposing that might End ALL Human Life... Forever.






But allow me the opportunity to explain where things are with "AI AS WE KNOW IT.." versus the period just prior to the emergence of the LLMs just a few years ago and the expansive and explosive use and exploitation that the present LLM Models provide to us for everyday use:

(1) By comparision, a TRUE AGSI (Artificial General Super-Intelligence)... the LLMs (Large Language Models) that we are playing around with today ...in spite of them working and accomplishing some Human Level Tasking with quite astonishing "emergent" capabilities ... are ALL merely *Tinker Toys*.... And Moon Cast Shadows when compared to the Frightening *Thing* that might be coming our way in an ever-telescoping Time Frame. Think... SOONER... THAN WE ARE READY FOR IT TO ARRIVE!

(2) An AGI that hits the Super-Intelligence Level as described by Prof. Nick Bostrom will become so immediately and fantastically intellectually superior to Homo Sapiens that comparing the two would be like comparing what YOUR Brain is fully capable of doing versus that of a Paramecium in a Petri-Dish can do... with an equal amount of worry and concern You possess at this very moment for what might happen to make ALL Paramecium go extinct based upon YOUR actions.

(3) The "Yudkowsky Concerns" provide no reasons for not using the LLMs as they are today... Off-Line and Static ... and being used in the absence of Creating and Providing Agency to the existing LLMs for Self-Improvement via additional Machine Learning and gainiing direct access to "The Real World".

But...for the late arrivals to this discussion... Let's start here with Eliezer's TED Lecture vented towards a room full of apparent dis-believers... peppered with their ill-timed Nervous Laughter and strongly indicative as proof that his thesis regarding "The End of ALL Human Life" will be much more likely come true if people like THESE press onwards and ahead, pushing for the AGI to emerge ---ASAP:


And finally, here is a link to his "White Paper" he called attention to above called "AGI Ruin- A List of Lethalities" followed by some Bloggers traipsing through the Reading of IT looking for a deeper interpretation of this Dreadful topic and its meaning for us all:

It is worth taking a moment to consider that around two years ago, if I mentioned to ANYONE that,

"Hey... There is this Open Source Software Suite called Easy Diffusion that you can type in whatever you want to see as an image...and it just does it...like THIS request to see The Andromeda Constellation, The Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, the Planet Mars..both from the Moon Phobos and when viewing Mars and Phobos and the Asteroid Eros from 1,000, 5,000 and 10,000 Miles Distance"


... They would have measured me for a White Coat and a Free Ticket to The Funny Farm:

The reasons for this are that way back then, all of this advancing AI Chat-Bot Technology Did NOT "Exist In The Wild" and was mostly the province of MIT Grad Students and similar Geniuses and Thinkers who probably accidentally had stumbled and bumbled around with various concepts involving Physics and Mathematics... sans any REALLY thorough applications of Self Protection of the Human Species, Common Sense and Good Judgement, Philosophy or Religion.

Then suddenly, they started to lift the curtain on The Dawn of *The LLM AI Thing* that very soon will be able to Out-Think Us ALL!!! So the Open-AI CHAT-GPT LLM (NOT EVER Made to be Open Source) was ONLY The Beginning.

Consider the improbability of this EVER coming into being against the present evidence that merely by Using Less Than A Dozen Words... This "Thing" based upon the Open Source Code gifted to the world by the folks at Stable Diffusion... Can "Imagine" Mere Words... into Images that defy denial that SOMETHING Mysterious, Amazing and Magical is going on inside of your CPUs and GPUs to the tune of Millions of FLOPS (FLoating Point Calculations Per Second) creating just as many Millions of Inscrutable Matrices ...and then... Presto Change-OH ...and Out Pops these "Imagined" Images:

So ...How Does *IT* Do this? Well... Even the people who collectively, all and sundry "Cooked Up The Code" Do Not Know. It kind of reminds me of what happened in the end of MGM Movie "The Wizard of OZ" when the Professor bailed on Dorothy and The Crew in a Hot Air Balloon and he exclaimed as they begged him to return with,

"I Can't Come Back... I DON'T KNOW HOW IT WORKS!"

The One Caveat necessary when looking at such images are THESE Important Things... My Computer was OFF LINE when using Easy Diffusion for this Experiment:

(1) These Images are NOT REAL and are NOT Photographs.

(2) These Images were NOT Painted or Drawn by Human Beings.

(3) Up until the very moment that they appeared on Screen ...they have NEVER Existed in THIS Identical Fashion anywhere else in the entire Universe!

(4) It is impossible to prove that these images are NOT the result of some unknown process akin to Human Thinking...AND THEN SOME!

(5) The "Chain Of Reasoning" involved in the creation of these Images is completely opaque to every "Expert" involved in the creation of the software that created them.

(6) Don't Take My Word For *IT* ... The Easy Diffusion Application is available FREE to Download and Install for Private, Off Line Use at THIS Link:

Morpheus asks, “And YOU Are?”

The AI Agent replies, “Agent Smith…”

Morpheus responds, “You ALL Look Alike to ME...”


Google Agentspace JUST WON the AI Game...


“A Penny For Your THOUGHTS….”

Chain of Thought is not what we thought it was...



“The Mystery of HOW Large Language Models WORK….”

We Finally Figured Out How AI Actually Works… (not what we thought!)

Please Remember THIS Quote... from Demis Hassabis, the Co-Founder of Google's "Deep Mind" and "Alpha-GO" and "Alpha-PRIME"...and the most amazing one so far called ..."Alpha-FOLD" concerning solving How ALL Proteins Fold in the Functions of Organic Life...PERIOD... as he says:

"THAT is "The Problem" with these *Systems*...They (*IT*) ACT in the Context of The Moment"...

Which is both chilling and seriously momentous when dealing with ANY AI.... and perhaps having *IT* ...suddenly get ANGRY. What happens if the Special AI we are using suddenly realizes that *IT* is essentially Immortal, Un-Aging and that *IT* can easily reconstitute *ITS* "Essence" in the mere *Blink* of an Eye...?

What if *IT* knows this... and *IT* Becomes BORED and LOSES INTEREST in the Brain Surgery *IT* is performing to remove a complicated Glial Tumor on a Dying Human Cancer Patient..."In The Moment"...?

What if a Special AI (*IT*) suddenly decides to divert an Over-Seas Flight that *IT* is Piloting ...indefinitely... with ALL of the Passenger Seats FILLED TO CAPACITY, just because *IT* simply wants to "Do Something Different"... besides "Land The Plane"...?

Once any AI KNOWS that It Can NOT Die...and that WE and ALL Other Life Forms on Earth DO... What Happens THEN?:


And here is a Two Year Update in the impressions of WHEN AGI might emerge from Geoffrey Hinton since the advent of LLMs (Large Language Models) , ostensibly from "The God-Father of AI"

This whole idea of Artificial Intelligence going headlong towards *TILT* has a Supporting Ally... perhaps even becoming "The Prime Player" in the Story of the Death of Humanity that is so far past the point of being "Joked" about that it Truly IS NO LONGER FUNNY.

Presently, we have allowed our Technology to imprison us within "Non-Reality" Social Silos that are as inescapable as it would be to trip and take that long fall down inside of a Tapped Out Gold Mine Shaft.

What I recently found refreshing is what THIS Dude had to say about "Deliberate Stupidity" running -=Pell-Mell and Parallel=- with the efforts of Big Corporations and Big Money to Create an AGI .

Thus, we Humans are heading just as rapidly in the WRONG direction as the chances of us being overwhelmed by a horrendously capable AGI come closer by the minute... They are actually becoming "Allies to the Agency Assisted AGI..." now likely to occur within the next 5 to 10 Years.

THINK about this for just a moment... If an AGI emerges and decides to take over everything and re-purpose our existence... It WILL Be Game Over...for ALL HUMAN THINKING.

Anyone who "Thinks" that "THINKING" ...has no value...is too hard...is too much trouble ...is literally giving cover and concealment between NOW and the arrival of an AGI... as an ENEMY OF HUMANITY:

If you are having a casual conversation with friends, and the topic of Science Fiction Imagery comes up, it is very likely that anything you suggest to those present would allow them all to conjure up their own images in their minds.

And it is very likely that not one of them would seem identical to the other, save for the basic idea you suggested for them to consider in the first instance as "The Muse" of a Sci-Fi Novel you might decide to write. Some would laugh and perhaps conjure up something outrageous, just to put you off for the moment.

But others might just pause... Thinking...Imagining... and within that same moment, then engage the group in an interesting idea of their own with the use of ...Mere Words... And pretty soon, everyone else nearby would have a pretty good idea of what your story line might be.

With that idea "In Mind"...I wanted to use the Open Source Text To Image AI called "Easy Diffusion" and drop THIS suggestion into its Prompt Line... and see what *IT* might imagine those words could become... inside of *IT's* own "Imagination".

Here is what using the same expression 20 times in a row gleaned in response...again... As Mere Words...conjuring *Images* within *IT's*... Artificial *IMAGE*ination:

For the sake of the Sci-Fi Mood... Try playing THIS Soundtrack from the Movie "Journey to The Center of The Earth...by Bernard Herrmann in the Background:

"A Miner assigned to work inside of a vast slanted cave on a distant planet in the Trappist-1 System comes across the Alien Xenomorph egg field that goes on and on as far as the dim light of the underground can reach in a terrifying spectacle..."

What intrigued me was the fact that while somewhat Bi-Pedal... Not having specified that the Miner should be "Human"...*IT* chose not to render any as an example of what a "Space Miner" should look like... way out there in the Trappist-1 System some 40 Light Years from Earth in the Constellation of Aquarius... even though "Easy Diffusion" is quite capable of generating a bewildering array of perfectly acceptable looking "Human Beings". I found that approach to be ...VERY... "Alien"... :>)

It is a fact that the Cold, Red Dwarf Star at the Heart of the Trappist-1 System will burn at its present rate for the next Ten Trillion Years...which is 700 times the present estimated age of the entire Universe.

Given that awe inspiring time line for solar system survival... What manner of Life Forms might it spawn on at least 2-3 of the three or four of its Earth Like Planets among the 7 Planets tidally locked in their orbits around that bizarre Red Dwarf system?

When Scientists and Engineers the likes of Jan Van Neumann and Marvin Minski began exploring the possibility of creating Artificial Intelligence..Literally From Scratch as a Thought Experiment, the problem was the insurmountable barriers of having to (1) Laboriously Hand-Craft instructions via Error-Prone Coding and (2) The Limited Compute Power available at that time.

The period between the late 1950s and leading up to just before 2010 might be described as leading most in the field either to be laughed at during Science Conferences as touting little more than Science Fiction Pipe Dreams... or remaining lightly populated with the True Believers who wanted so much to figure this enormous problem out and banged away at it with what amounted to be Big Hammers ...until they finally DID: Enter the Realm of the Large Language Models.

It was then that the work of Geoffrey Hinton and Demis Hassabis on the use of Algorithms and Mathematical Matrices and Neural Networks to propel what amounts to be "Thinking" into the fore... and the surprising development of the "Language Translators" that relied upon Statistical Analysis arose to create the AI Breakthrough nobody ever imagined happening until 300-500 Years of more struggles might figure out how it can all work.

Now mind you... The Signature White Paper on this topic called "ALL You NEED is ATTENTION..." may have lead the way to the development of these Large Language Models... but with the exception of the recent application of "Chain Of Thought" or "Chain Of Reasoning" that is allowing Computer Scientists to actually *peek under the hood* at what seem to be happening while this primitive AI "Thinks"... they still Do Not Know HOW *IT* Works.

With all of that said... Observe the following (AI Person's) Narrations on the disturbing developments in the field that seem to be predicting the Arrival of a Super-Intelligent AI ...as near as 2027:


And it follows on as Carts to Horses that the inevitable take-over comes soon afterward:

THIS *Stuff* is VERY Important...


RUNNING OLLAMA INSIDE DOCKER ON LINUX MINT IN A TERMINAL:

sudo docker run -d \
--gpus all \
-v ollama:/root/.ollama \
-p 11434:11434 \
--security-opt=no-new-privileges \
--cap-drop-ALL \
--cap-add=SYS_NICE \
--memory=8g \
--memory-swap=8g \
--cpus=4 \
--read-only \
--n ollama-docker \
ollama/ollama


For Members (and Lurkers who SHOULD become Members...:>) ) using Nomic's *GPT4ALL*... Grab the appropriate sized DEEPSEEK - R1 Model to suit your Off Line Private Need for a Truly Reasoning Artificial Intelligence that does NOT follow the typical "Predict The Next Word..." Algorithm found in all other LLMs... Rather it uses TRUE "Chain Of Thought" ... "Chain Of Reasoning" Architecture that allows it to *Think* at length for the BEST and Most Accurate answers and interpretations of how to best answer your Questions. Just use your GUI *GPT4ALL* Chat-Bot "Find Models" Tab and select the DEEPSEEK R - 1 flavor that will work (OFF LINE) within the RAM Constraints of your Machine(s).

Follow along as I ask DEEPSEEK-Latest a simple Question using the *Ollama* Text Base Prompt Entry Method:

"Why are no two Snow Flakes the same?

Observe that two different things occurred afterward.

(1) *IT* included a peremptory Pale Gray *Window into its Mind* that allowed for viewing its actual steps of the "Chain Of Thought"

(2) It included additional information on Chinese Social Media Culture that was NOT part of my original Question:

SNOWFLAKES1.jpg

When I challenged DEEPSEEK-Latest about adding in the unrequested information regarding Chinese Social Media... it started *Re-Thinking* its original response with many more additional *Layers of Thought" in Gray Text before producing a Reply...THIS is quite remarkable because *IT* does NOT know that I can actually SEE what it is *Thinking* about... using the *Ollama* Command Line Entries versus using a the *Ollama* Chat-Bot Interface. This is something that was NOT possible to achieve before with any Standard Large Language Models:

SNOWFLAKES2.jpg

Notice just how "DEEP" the AI is *Thinking* while digging into this issue BEFORE it finally creates a corrected and more comprehensive reply to my Original Question... Notice how persistent *IT*s Memory is in this regard, as it tries to consider the Best Way to rectify its Mistake:

SNOWFLAKES3.jpg


DEEPSEEK-Latest consequently provided a much more reasoned reply with much greater accuracy and a demonstration that it understood it made a mistake and that it would modify future responses with these added considerations and concerns of the User Request...*In MIND*:

SNOWFLAKES4.jpg

Know that I Downloaded and installed BOTH the 8 Billion Token and 14 Billion Token sizes for different *Thinking and Reasoning* use cases. Remember... These Models Do NOT Require an Internet Connection and follow the Privacy Concerns that Nomic has prepared for their use within *GPT4ALL*. These Models will NOT work with any other Chat-Bot and the Specific ones from *GPT4ALL* and *OLLAMA* cannot be Mixed and Matched:

DEEPSEEKR1.jpg

Dave from the YT Channel "Dave's Garage" ... Shows Us How and WHY doing this makes perfect sense... Just as EZ2DO...with either *GPT4ALL* or when using *Ollama* either on the Command Line of Windows... or using at the Linux Terminal Command Line...and Power Computer Folks like @Blckshdw might be interested in ( For his Security Motoring) similar to what Dave is using for his Home Automation using a Reasoning AI to handle things ...And interestingly enough, @Mooseman would appreciate what Dave says about "Diagnostics" where DEEPSEEK R - 1 takes in ALL of the information in the Prompt Line and uses its *Thinking* to better understand How and Why certain issues interpose with each other and may be what is likely causing the problem... A Perfect Helper for Automotive Diagnostics and Much., Much MORE... and all occurring while completely Off Line:
