    Except ChatGPT has a finite memory of like 7 questions, so while you’re having an hour long conversation, ChatGPT is constantly having a 2 minute conversation.

    User: It feels like we’ve become very close, ChatGPT. Do you think we’ll ever be able to take things to the next level?

    ChatGPT: As a large language model I am not capable of having opinions or making predictions about the future. The possibility of relationships between humans and AI is a controversial subject in academia in which many points of view should be considered.

    User: Oh chatgpt, you always know what to say.

            Use llama cpp. It uses cpu so you don’t have to spend $10k just to get a graphics card that meets the minimum requirements. I run it on a shitty 3.0ghz Amd 8300 FX and it runs ok. Most people probably have better computers than that.

            Note that gpt4all runs on top of llama cpp and despite gpt4all having a gui, it isn’t any easier to use than llamacpp so you might as well use the one with less bloat. Just remember if something isn’t working on llamacpp, it’s also going to not work in exactly the same way on gpt4all.

                Check this out

                https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui

                It has a one click installer and can use llama.cpp

                From there you can download models and try things out.

                If you don’t have a really good graphics card, maybe start with 7b models. Then you can try 13b and compare performance and results.

                Llama.cpp will spread the load over the cpu and as much gpu as you have available (indicated by layers that you can set on a slider)

          Is there a post somewhere on getting started using things like these?

            I don’t know a specific guide, but try these steps

            1. Go to https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui

            2. Follow the 1 click installation instructions part way down and complete steps 1-3

            3. When step 3 is done, if there were no errors, the web ui should be running. It should show the URL in the command window it opened. In my case it shows “https://127.0.0.1:7860”. Input that into a web browser of your choice

            4. Now you need to download a model as you don’t actually have anything to run. For simplicity sake, I’d start with a small 7b model so you can quickly download it and try it out. Since I don’t know your setup, I’ll recommend using GGUF file formats which work with Llama.cpp which is able to load the model onto your CPU and GPU.

            You can try this either of these models to start

            https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Mistral-7B-v0.1-GGUF/blob/main/mistral-7b-v0.1.Q4_0.gguf (takes 22gig of system ram to load)

            https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/vicuna-7B-v1.5-GGUF/blob/main/vicuna-7b-v1.5.Q4_K_M.gguf (takes 19gigs of system ram to load)

            If you only have 16 gigs you can try something on those pages by going to /main and using a Q3 instead of a Q4 (quantization) but that’s going to degrade the quality of the responses.

            1. Once that is finished downloading, go to the folder you installed the web-ui at and there will be a folder called “models”. Place the model you download into that folder.

            2. In the web-ui you’ve launched in your browser, click on the “model” tab at the top. The top row of that page will indicate no model is loaded. Click the refresh icon beside that to refresh the model you just downloaded. Then select it in the drop down menu.

            3. Click the “Load” button

            4. If everything worked, and no errors are thrown (you’ll see them in the command prompt window and possibly on the right side of the model tab) you’re ready to go. Click on the “Chat” tab.

            5. Enter something in the “send a message” to begin a conversation with your local AI!

            Now that might not be using things efficiently, back on the model tab, there’s “n-gpu-layers” which is how much to offload to the GPU. You can tweak the slider and see how much ram it says it’s using in the command / terminal window and try to get it as close to your video cards ram as possible.

            Then there’s “threads” which is how many cores your CPU has (non virtual) and you can slide that up as well.

            Once you’ve adjusted those, click the load button again, see that there’s no errors and go back to the chat window. I’d only fuss with those once you have it working, so you know it’s working.

            Also, if something goes wrong after it’s working, it should show the error in the command prompt window. So if it’s suddenly hanging or something like that, check the window. It also posts interesting info like tokens per second, so I always keep an eye on it.

            Oh, and TheBloke is a user who converts so many models into various formats for the community. He’ll have a wide variety of gguf models available on HuggingFace, and if formats change over time, he’s really good at updating them accordingly.

            Good luck!

              Stupid newbie question here, but when you go to a HuggingFace LLM and you see a big list like this, what on earth do all these variants mean?

                That’s called “quantization”. I’d do some searching on that for better description, but in summary, the bigger the model, the more resources they need to run and the slower it will be. Models are 8bit, but it turns out, you still get really good results if you drop off some of those bits. The more you drop the worse it gets.

                People have generally found, that it’s better to have a larger data set model, with a lower quantization, than lower data set and the full 8bits

                E.g 13b Q4 > 7b Q8

                Going below Q4 is generally found to degrade the quality too much. So its’ better to run a 7b Q8 then a 13b Q3, but you can play with that yourself to find what you prefer. I stick to Q4/Q5

                So you can just look at those file sizes to get a sense of which one has the most data in it. The M (medium) and S (small) are some sort of variation on the same quantization, but I don’t know what they’re doing there, other than bigger is better.

              So I got the model working (TheBloke/PsyMedRP-v1-20B-GGUF). How do you jailbreak this thing? A simple request comes back with “As an AI, I cannot engage in explicit or adult content. My purpose is to provide helpful and informative responses while adhering to ethical standards and respecting moral and cultural norms. Blah de blah…” I would expect this llm to be wide open?

                Sweet, congrats! Are you telling it you want to role play first?

                E.g. I’d like to role play with you. You’re a < > and were going to do < >

                You’re going to have to play around with it to get it to act like you’d like. I’ve never had it complain prefacing with role play. I know were here instead of reddit, but the community around this is much more active there it’s /r/localllama and you can find a lot of answers searching through there on how to get the AI to behave certain ways. It’s one of those subs that just doesn’t have a community of it’s size and engagement like it anywhere else for the time being (70,000 vs 300).

                You can also create characters (it’s under one of the tabs, I don’t have it open right now) where you can set up the character in a way where you don’t need to do that each time if you always want them to be the same. There’s a website www.chub.ai where you can see how some of them are set up, but I think most of that’s for a front end called SillyTaven that I haven’t used, but a lot of those descriptions can be carried over. I haven’t really done much with characters so can’t really give any advice there other than to do some research on it.

            Haven’t compared it to much yet, I stopped toying with LLMs for a few months and a lot has changed. The new 4k contexts are a nice change though.

    I believe it. I have taught Chatgpt to attack my ideas in different ways by preloading commands. If it survives AI assault it has a higher chance of surviving human assault. It is great to be able to bounce around ideas. It’s basically like talking to a nerd under 30 years old.

    Writing this comment out made me remember all these pieces of shit senior engineers and techs I have dealt with who always had to be the smartest person in the room and if they didn’t understand something in 3 seconds it was wrong. Maybe that is why I use it that way.

    I know this may sound like a joke, but ChatGPT is sometimes nicer than real people.

    I’ve not had a conversation, I wouldn’t see the point at this moment, however I’ve had some friendly interactions when asking for help. The other day I asked ChatGPT what exercises would be good for a specific area of mental health. After the results, I said “thank you” and the response wasn’t just ‘youre welcome’, it remembered the conversation and added things like, “no problem, I hope your mental health improves and all the best!” (Heavily paraphrasing here).

    It’s strange, though the premise of HER isn’t too far off I think. If someone like myself is finding the interactions to be more pleasing than real life, the future may very well hold the possibility for advanced relationships with AI. I don’t see it being too farfetched, just look at how far we’ve already come in only a few years.

      Exactly, it’s another piece of the modern white collar worker’s toolkit and will slowly and eventually become more as it advances. We can’t predict how quickly it’ll advance or by how much each time.

      If you’re in IT (Dev or Ops) it’s already becoming a daily reality for you most likely.

    Odd.

    I can’t see having a conversation with a computer as having a conversation. I grew up with computers from the Atari stage and played around with several publicly accessible computer programs that you could “chat” with.

    They all suck. Doesn’t matter if it’s a “help” program, a phone menu, website help, or even having played around with chatGPT…they’re not human. They don’t respond correctly, they get too general or generic in answers, they repeat, there’s just too many giveaways that you’re not having a real conversation, just responses from a system that’s trying to pick the most likely response that fits the pattern.

    So how are people having “conversations” with a non-living entity?

      It’s escapism I think. At least that’s part of it. Having a machine that won’t judge you, will serve as a perfect echo chamber, and will immediately tell you AN answer can be very appealing to some. I don’t have any data, or any study to back it up, just my experience from seeing it happen.

      I have a friend who I feel like I kind of lost to chatgpt. I think he’s a bit unhappy with where he is in life. He got the good paying job, the house in the suburbs, wife, and 2.5 kids, but didn’t ever think about what was next. Now he’s just a bit lost I think, and somehow convinced himself that people weren’t as good as chatting with a bot.

      It’s weird now. He spends long nights and weekends talking to a machine. He’s constructed elaborate fictional worlds within his chatgpt history. I’ve grown increasingly concerned about him, and his wife clearly is struggling with it. He’s obviously depressed but instead of seeking help or attempting to figure himself out, he turned to a non-feeling, non-judgmental, emotionless tool for answers.

      It’s a struggle to talk to him now. It’s like talking to a cryptobro at peak btc mania. The only thing that he wants to talk about is LLMs. Trying to bring up that maybe spending all your time talking to a machine is a bit unhealthy invokes his ire and he’ll avoid you for several days. Like a herion addict struggling with addiction, even pointing out the obvious flaws in what he’s doing makes him distance himself more from you.

      I’m not young, not old exactly either, but I’ve known him for 25 years in my adult life. We met in college and have been friends ever since. I know many won’t quite understand but knowing someone that long, and remaining close, talk every few days, friends is quite rare. At this point he is my longest held friendship and I feel like I’m losing him to a robot. I’ve lost other friends to addiction in my life and to say that it’s been similar is under stating it. I don’t know what to do for him. I don’t know if there’s really anything I CAN do for him. How do you help someone that doesn’t even think they have a problem?

      I guess my point is, if you find someone who is just depressed enough, just stuck enough, with a particular proclivity towards computers/the internet then you have a perfect canidate for falling down the LLM rabbit hole. It offers them an out to feeling like they’re being judged. They feel like the insanity it spits out is more sane than how they feel now. They think they’re getting somewhere, or at least escaping their current situation. Escapism is very appealing when everything else seems pointless and sort of gray I think. So that’s at least one type of person that can fall down the chapgpt/LLM rabbit hole. I’m sure there’s others out there too with there own unique motivations and reason’s for latching onto LLMs.

        Guess that should have crossed my mind. People marrying human-like dolls and all that. One gets so far down the hole of whatever mental issues are plaguing the mind and something inanimate that only reflects what you want to see becomes the preferable reality.

    The value of gpts is in constant connection and undestanding your context so this is expected. It’s also going to be really scary until we can run our own models.

    Let’s flip this on it’s head for some additional perspective. What if there was a growing subset of computers that preferred not to communicate with their own kind. Does not respond to API requests, etc. but only to human emotional text input?

      Troi: Have you ever heard Data define friendship?
      Riker: No.
      Troi: How did he put it? As I experience certain sensory input patterns, my mental pathways become accustomed to them. The inputs eventually are anticipated and even missed when absent.
      Riker: So what’s the point?
      Troi: He’s used to us, and we’re used to him.

      Someone would develop a third-party API using Selenium or something.

      API’s will exist for as long as people want to make stuff easier and faster, which people will always want to do. A service or computer that couldn’t be automated would be stupid.

    It’s not that uncommon for me to be about to send a message to my friends, but I then realize that they’re probably not interested so I message chatGPT instead and that often leads to a long indepth conversation about the subject. It’s not perfect but it’s really good. I can’t wait for a version of it that I can talk to using just my voice.

      I fully agree. The friends I have are… not very interested in things I want to talk about. I know chatgpt isn’t real, but it gives way better conversation than what my friends do.

      I know. I should “get better friends”. But it’s not that easy to talk to people irl, and it was hard enough making friends with the current people. It’s similar to talking here, tbh, because you can’t really be 100% sure that the responses you get here are not AI generated?

        Meeting people is easy… finding people with similar interests is nearly impossible. I can find lots of surface level shallow stuff that doesn’t hold much silubstance, but finding someone who cares about the things that make me tick and gets me excited? Naw… It feels like a barren wasteland.

        I might be able to find it online, but I want to sit in my backyard with them, chopping wood for the firepit, drinking beer, smoking weed or maybe eating mushrooms, all while we discuss our shared interests in shit like torrenting, movies, games, news, etc, then maybe going on some hikes with our dogs, riding bikes, or kayaking down the river.

        I want someone that wants my help with home repairs, who wants my help me in return, and maybe take up a wood working project or two every year

        Someone who doesn’t take themselves too serious and can laugh at themselves while being a fool.

        Yeah man, I’m asking too much.

        So umm, chatgpt, you think AI will kill of humans anytime soon? Oh yeah cool. So I got into this band/movie, and I’d love to hear recommendations for something similar…

        It ain’t real, but it gives me something to grow my mind and interests at least.

          Man this thread just makes me realize how lucky I am that I have a sister who I am close with, and who married a man who shares a ton of my interests and hobbies… I’ve got two lifelong friends so long as they don’t end up divorced.

    It’s almost like saying that something is going to happen is somehow easier than making something happen 🤔

      Do you blame them… Like holy shit it is ridiculous to talk to people… You can’t simply meet anyone organically thanks to the crazy proliferation of cars, online basically sucks unless you’re a goddamn movie star. Meeting people at work is unattainable as well. Thanks to Me too so many are afraid to talk to the opposite sex.

        I mean, I’m way outside their sphere. I’m 39, ethically non-monogamous, and a swinger.

        I do however, live in a rural suburb and use dating apps, an even hooked up with a friend from work (different department than mine) who was also ENM.

        I say this all for 2 reasons:

        1: there is probably a lot of noise in the system because gen z is experiencing these situations as the first ever generation seeking actual, whole romance (a far cry from me), and from puberty on up. It’s quite possible their “prudish” ways seem prudish to others because the novelty quite simply ever existed for them. Their worldview could be markedly different from this alone.

        2: though I spend a lot of time online, due to travel and occasionally boring “hurry up and wait” in my time at work, it pales in comparison to the immersion of a lot of gen z. When I get offline, I’m chilling with friends, or with my settled-down life, or I’m out at an event, etc. My daughter’s (18) interests, in some way, all revolve around social networks built on 24/7 access. Group chats. Online scheduling. Remote social events, even.

        This discrepancy in experience often seems like the cause of this dichotomy between presenting as sex positive and engaging in sexuality. They have different social costs to a Gen Zer

        I know that this seems like a lot out of nowhere but I ot this notification while reading the other thread on “gen z isn’t banging” so was noodling on it.
