I misread LLVM as LLM and wondered what on earth language models have to do with Fortran compilation. (They don't. LLVM is a compiler framework.)
Anyways, great work to the team! It's fun to see such a flurry of articles from the Fortran community today
- certik 3y agoThanks! I know, LLM came much later after LLVM. But if you are interested in LLM that LFortran can compile, check out: https://github.com/certik/fastGPT/ https://github.com/certik/fastGPT/.
- csjh 3y agoWould be cool for there to be a `llama2.f`, like https://github.com/karpathy/llama2.c https://github.com/karpathy/llama2.c, to demo its capabilities
- certik 3y agoYes indeed, we'll do it next (unless somebody beats me to it). First I am focusing on compiling fastGPT with LFortran, we can do it, but have a few workarounds that I want to fix. Then we'll do llama2.

- certik 3y agoTurns out Fortran is a great fit for LLM, I am not joking: https://github.com/certik/fastGPT/ https://github.com/certik/fastGPT/.
- Conscat 3y agoI was talking to someone on Grinder yesterday who made the same mistake. I wonder how common it is to misread "LLVM" as "LLM".
