gollark: The color to intensity mapping looks annoying and hard.
gollark: If you want to use the NLI model instead of a semantic search-y thing, you probably will have bad performance issues since it *does* actually have to compare all the input sentences against all the example sentences using a full pass through the model.
gollark: That just puts the tokenized tokens onto the GPU, not the model. I would expect that to just error, actually, if the model and tokens are on separate devices.
gollark: No, that thing is fine, but your *other* model is not being loaded onto the GPU.
