Assuming the training software could be run on the hardware and that we could distribute the load as if it was 2023, would it be possible to train a modern LLM on hardware from 1985?

So my collection of about 20 Commodore 64 isn't enough? Do I need another 20? /s

I think you'd need roughly a billion of them. Minus the 20 you have, of course.

Estimate of up to 30 million C64 were produced so I guess not enough if I managed to get every single one in the world

You would need at least 44 more
