"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Look into ollama and figure out which local model (likely from huggingface) that fits best for how much memory your graphics card has.
You can use AI (maybe copilot free) to guide you through all this. You'll be a little better off having that 16GB of memory than I have with my 10GB. The gwen model might be a good place to start?
There's a long, but interesting article on ollama's scummy behaviour I've been seeing circulating - https://sleepingrobots.com/dreams/stop-using-ollama/
It made me switch from my ollama I never used to localai that I now never use instead.
Hell yea, thanks brother! The irony of having an LLM walk me through setting up a local instance is pretty great lol, surprised that didn't occur to me! I have tried in the past with comfyUI but was over my head immediately.
