It'd be a good way to lose money at the moment. Probably not too far off in the future it would make sense though

that's correct. Also Kalshi does pay out interest on, and Poly does on a few markets

I like it!

I was interested in this idea too and made a video where some of the previous top LLMs play against each other https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsvcoUxGFmQ&t=2s

you're right. For my purposes, I was thinking of something I could use if I wanted to manufacture a new (smallish) product

If I wanted to run this locally at somewhat decent speeds, is an RK3588S board (like OrangePi 5) the cheapest option?

Maybe a little off topic, but is there a way for a distributed app to connect to one of the LLM companies (OpenAI, etc.) without the unencrypted data hitting an in-between proxy server?

An app I'm building uses LLMs to process messages. I don’t want the unencrypted message to hit my server - and ideally I wouldn’t have the ability to decrypt it. But I can’t communicate directly from client -> LLM Service without leaking the API key.
