That's as arbitrary of a distinction as many other ones you could try to draw. With Rails nothing will happen unless you call `run Rails.application` or run the `rails server` command. That doesn't make it a library.

Yeah, that sentence surprised me too. While I generally would also consider React more a library than a framework, I think there are arguments to be made that it's a framework. If we go by the common "your code calls a library; a

Yes, this may (significantly) improve that. Even without that, you can run LLMs already on mobile phones, the question is just how big of a model and how strongly quantized, and if the few models that remain produce good enough results. E.g

Almost every modern framework is implicitly modeled as a DAG? It just rarely used that nomenclature. Heck with Elm a whole language exists for that principle. I'm really not sure what's supposed to be different here. As is evident

For LLMs I think most people create their own LoRA and rarely share them as they are the result of finetuning on proprietary data that they don't want to leak. Separate to that, the open-source model space is so fragmented and LoRAs ar
