> I ended up renting an hourly GPU from Runpod (an RTX 4090 w/ 24GB of VRAM) for ~$0.7/hr. Sorry if I missed this, but how much did it cost total to do the fine-tune? Is that the 40 hour number (~$27)? Also, very cool writeup.

Thanks. Yeah I played with your app early on and just fired it up again to see the progress. Frankly I find the interface pretty intimidating but it is cool that you can easily stitch generations together. Unsolicited UX recs: - strongly re

This project is really cool and I like the stated philosophy on the README. I think it's making the right trade-off in terms of setting useful defaults and not showing you 100 arcane settings. However, the installation is too hard. It&

Just installed, this is very cool. Local AI is the future I want (and what I'm working on too). A few notes using it... Pros: - seems pretty self contained - built in model installer works really well and helps you download anything fr

I don’t think making it easy to install is cargo-culting. In my case it’s an accessibility thing. I wanted a private alternative that I could give to nontechnical people in my life who had started using ChatGPT. Some don’t understand local

Yes, though it does seem to be working for them. They have a special feature for lazy loading large assets but I opted for a simpler to me option (giving users a button to download a model if they don’t have one locally they want to use).

fwiw FreeChat does this now. It prompts you to download or select a model to use (and you can add as many as you want). No copying or forced downloads.

cool. this is more convenient than my workflow for doing the binaries myself. I currently use make to generate a binary of llama.cpp server on my intel iMac and my m1 MacBook then lipo them together.

In my experience, if you're on a mac it's about the file size * 150% of RAM to get it working well. I had a user report running my llama.cpp app on a 2017 iMac with 8GB at ~5 tokens/second. Not sure about other platforms.

Extremely cool and Justine Tunney / jart does incredible portability work [0], but I'm kind of struggling with the use-cases for this one. I make a small macOS app [1] which runs llama.cpp with a SwiftUI front-end. For the first v

that's the magic of llama.cpp! I include a universal binary of llama.cpp's server example to do inference. What's your machine? The lowest spec I've heard it running on is a 2017 iMac with 8GB RAM (~5.5 tokens/s). O

I absolutely buy this but also think we should figure out what works about the human tutor and try to get it into a free piece of software so that the 99% of kids without individual tutors can get a similar benefit.

I don't think you can reduce size without losing accuracy (though I think quantized GGUFs are great). But the 2 MB size here is a reference to the program size not including a model. It looks like it's a way to run llama.cpp with
