Hi Thomas,
Thanks a lot for this. We are working on a proposal for emergency management/resilience and this is a very interesting protocol. Icc your text to the bricolist where the unphone Lin k came from,
Greetings, Rob

>> Hamish Cunningham, the person behind this also says:
>> "One hopeful thing in the context of the new AI is that since Facebook decided it was losing the LLM race with M$ and Google and opened up LLAMA, the open source AI community has begun producing models that perform at similar levels to ChatGPT. Although it is still prohibitively expensive to build the foundation model that these are based on, for end user applications they can run on hardware that's a fraction of the price of the corporate cloud (e.g. a €1.5k GPU can both infer that "I'm hot" means turn the heating down and do a decent job of spouting general knowledge on a multitude of subjects). I think the era of DIY AI is now upon us :)"
>> So the aim is now to upgrade the unphone with open source AI, sort of your Bonsai idea. Time is fully irrelevant when it comes to ideas :)

>> The BonsAI is a community-oriented AI infrastructure in Open Source. It is a low cost, low energy, open source project based on open hardware built for communities primarily of non-tech people. The characteristic of the BonsAI infrastructure is that it does not require any dedicated HW (CPU/GPU) but instead takes advantage of the distributed, open/shared CPU/GPU and data storage resources. This provides the opportunity for special and dedicated uses of the AI in poor communities, small companies, high school environments, cultural institutions, etc. I'm not sure if makes any sense at all in the first place, but hey, it took me 5 mins to update the original idea from 2007. 😉

>> Hi all,
>> Just wondering what this idea from 2007 could look like today?
>> Bricophone
>> community-oriented mobile phone infrastructure
>> The Bricophone is a community-oriented mobile phone infrastructure in Open Source. It is a low cost, low energy, open hardware, open source project built for communities up to ten thousand people within regional distances. The characteristic of the Bricophone infrastructure is that it does not require any static infrastructure like relays, antennas, or digital data centers. This provides the opportunity for special uses in poor communities, mass rescueing in disastered areas, and cultural and social activities like festivals and other mass events.
