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.

alot of really small SLMs seem to be too small to even function properly.
however, there may be some unconventional uses for some of them.

one usecase keyword generation. heres what gemma-3-270m-it-qat-Q4_0 gave me

prompt: keywords similar to "construction"

Construction activities
*   Construction design
*   Construction equipment
*   Construction management
*   Construction materials
*   Construction methodology
*   Construction organization
*   Construction planning
*   Construction process
*   Construction project
*   Construction project details
*   Construction project management
*   Construction project management activities
*   Construction project management assessment
*   Construction project management checklist
*   Construction project management document
*   Construction project management evaluation
*   Construction project management framework
*   Construction project management methodology
*   Construction project management plan
*   Construction project management project
*   Construction project management report
*   Construction project management review
*   Construction project management schedule
*   Construction project management software
*   Construction project management strategy
*   Construction project management system
*   Construction project management tool
*   Construction project planning
*   Construction project scope
*   Construction schedule
*   Construction strategy
*   Construction work
```
                
90 TPS (but got stuck in a repeating loop)          
            
i think theres alot of other uses. but they arent really LLM answer that people usually reach for an LLM.

Oh I misunderstood, I read construction as manually making tags

Yes this particular list wouldn't be that helpful. A different prompt or some post processing would be needed. I'm not familiar with this model either
