Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.
Get support from the community! Ask questions, share prompts, discuss benchmarks, get hyped at the latest and greatest model releases! Enjoy talking about our awesome hobby.
As ambassadors of the self-hosting machine learning community, we strive to support each other and share our enthusiasm in a positive constructive way.
Rules:
Rule 1 - No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.
Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.
Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.
Rule 4 - No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.

Late to the party, I never got FOSAI working until I found LMStudio, but I have 2 questions:
Is there any way I could utilize my GPU, a Radeon RX6800M (12GB VRAM)? I got Mistral-7B doing 5 tokens/s but it's all running on the CPU.
Is there any model specifically for programming questions? This could be of immense help to my projects without having to ask ChatGPT.
Have you tried the guide on AMD's site? It looks like it's for Windows, and I don't know what you're running. Plus, I use Ollama, so I probably can't be of much help.
For programing, my favorite is Dolphin-Mixtral, but I've had good results with Dolphin-Mistral and Llama2.
I got a question about LMStudio! Is it FOSS, or is it just partly open?
On their website I see that they do have a github link, but I can't identify the "main" project.
Looks like LMStudio is FOSS although I'm not 100% sure. What if does is allow you to run FOSAI models locally.
Yeah, that I understand. I was just curious, since currently I'm using ollama, which is fully FOSS, and some web UI to work with the LLMs in chat. but having it all in one place would be really nice.
I've heard some good things about LMStudio, but if it's not FOSS, it's not getting on my machine.
