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.

In a span of less than 6 months, cumulative downloads of Chinese open models had not only overtaken US models, but began to open a widening lead (aussie.zone)

China's narrative on the events preceding "tank man" isn't that no one was hurt/nothing happened. It is that a riot had to be put down. Generally, people (brainwashed by US media) won't be happy until CIA is only valid information source, and AI must parrot it.

Just as your other media, use sources that validate your preconceptions for any superficial question.

The popularity of local LLMs has very little to do with seeking private answers to politicized questions, and more, utility in coding/images/reasoning capabilities. The news in this post appears to be the concensus that Chinese open models are better at solving user problems/tasks.
