This article was written or rewritten via your model right?

The last paragraphs fell totally like AI.

Anyway I'd like a follow up on the curating, cleaning and training part which is far more interesting than how to select hardware which we've been doing for over 25 years.

Yes it is , thanks for the feedback. I will soon add it to github

I would be much more intrested in a piece on what you can train with this kind of rig, rather than the rig itself

The bottleneck for most model training sizes is VRAM, and since each 4090 has 24 GB VRAM, that's 96 GB VRAM total. The article mentions that it can train LLMs from scratch up to 1 billion hyperparameters, which tracks.

Nowadays that's not a lot: a single H100 that you can now rent has 80 GB VRAM, and doesn't have the technical overhead of handling work across GPUs.
