Don't say that "You can't write". If you can tweet, comment, post shit on the internet, you CAN write.
I suspect Lemmy is going to dislike this, but local LLMs are great writing helpers.
When you're stuck on a sentence or a blank paragraph, get them to continue it, and rewrite it once it jogs your mind. If you're drafting ideas for characters or chapters, you can sanity check them or sometimes get ideas. They can reword and clean up your writing and improve it beyond what self experimentation can do... just keeping in mind that its like an idiot intern that tends to repeat itself and hallucinate.
And this is very different from an API model like ChatGPT because:
It won't refuse you.
It's formatted as a notebook you can continue at any arbitrary point, rather than a user/chatbot type format.
The writing isn't so dry, and it isn't filled with AI slop, especially with cutting edge sampling
All its knowledge is "internal," with no reaching out to the web or hidden prompting under your nose
Along with all the usual reasons, namely being free, self-hosted, more ethically trained, fast and efficient with long context thanks to caching, and has nothing to do with Sam Altman's nightmarish visions.
I'd recommend: https://huggingface.co/nbeerbower/Qwen2.5-Gutenberg-Doppel-32B
And once the story gets long: https://huggingface.co/EVA-UNIT-01/EVA-Qwen2.5-32B-v0.2
I'd recommend LanguageTool (with a local server and the browser extension) for locally hosted spelling/grammar/style as well.
I have ADD, which may be why I find this setup to be so therapeutic.
I mean, I kind of get the intention, but, personally, I don't need or want that kind of help in my hobby. If I worked as a pro writer, and I had a deadline and I needed to be more "efficient" with my writing, maybe I would give LLMs a try, but I don't need to be "efficient" with a hobby, since I enjoy the whole process, even the blockages. It's just much more satisfying to come up with the ideas yourself as you write. I don't mean to be harsh or anything, if it works better for you to do things the way you do them, great for you. In the end, what makes one feel better is what matters.
