I’m interested in hosting something like this, and I’d like to know experiences regarding this topic.
The main reason to host this for privacy reasons and also to integrate my own PKM data (markdown files, mainly).
Feel free to recommend me videos, articles, other Lemmy communities, etc.
I tired a bunch, but current state of the art is
text-generation-webui
, which can load multiple models and has a workflow similar tostable-diffusion-webui
.I use koboldAI. It is local and open source

It’s good for me because I’m piss poor at programming. In my defense, I’m not a programmer or even programmer adjacent. I do see how it wouldn’t be useful to a pro. It also has occasionally given me garbage advice that an expert would spot right away while I had to figure out in my own that it was ‘hallucinating’ again. There’s nothing better for learning than troubleshooting, though!
I can absolutely see it getting useful for a pro. It’s already a better version of IDE templates. If you have to write boilerplate code this can already do that. It’s a huge time saver for the things you’d have to go look up to remember how to do and piece together yourself.
Example: today I wanted a quick way to serve my current working directory over HTTP so I could do some quick web work. I asked ChatGPT to write me a bash function I could stick in my profile to do this, and I told it to pick a random unused port. That would have taken me much longer had I went to lookup how to do that all. The only hint I gave it was to use the Python builtin module for serving http.

There’s a project called Tabby that your can host as a server on a machine that has a GPU, and has a VSCode extension that connects to the server.
The default model is called starcoder, and it’s the small version, 1B parameters. The downside is that it’s not super smart (but still an improvement over built in tools), but since it’s such a small model, I’m getting sub-second processing times.

Dbzero Lemmy has a relationship with the Horde AI shared LLM group. My primary use is for chat roleplay but they have streamlined guides to hosting your own models for personal or horde use. One of the primary interfaces is SillyTavern but they integrate numerous models
I’ve played around with a few of them. I’ve found LM Studio the most robust and user friendly.
Recntly started using HuggingChat 🤗
Huggingchat for image generation is beautiful beautiful nightmare fuel.
I seriously love it.
I do image generation on AUTOMATIC1111
Really happy that i switched the text ai to something more opened that CloseAI
I’m actively using ollama with docker to run llama2:13b model. It’s generally works fine but heavy on resources as expected.
There’s a local llama subreddit with a lot of good information and 4chan’s /g/ board will usually have a good thread with a ton of helpful links in the first post. Don’t think there’s anything on lemmy yet. You can run some good models on a decent home pc but training and fine tuning will likely require renting out some cloud gpus.

[email protected] – has a good overview/introduction
Some of those are inactive, though.
I haven’t tried any of them but I did just listen to a podcast the other week where they talk about LlamaGPT vs Ollama and other related tools. If you’re interested it’s episode 540: Uncensored AI on Linux by Linux Unplugged
“Uncensored” models are bullshit everything but uncensored. Just ask them for a Windows XP Pro key and you’ll see how uncensored they really are.
Last time I checked this, out of all the options available Serge was the simplest to host and use. Though you need a beefy computer to get fast and/or good responses.
Mixtral is an amazing one that isn’t super slow or require incredible hardware foe a decent speed.
In general this guy has really good videos/tutorials for the latest tools.
If you want to be able to use your models from everywhere sefurely, then koboldcpp on the ai horde is your best option. Super easy to set up
Not with success but I’m using huggingface since a couple of days. You may want to have a look into it
Yes, mostly https://gpt4all.io/ only to find out that even the “uncensored” models are bullshit and won’t even provide you with a Windows XP Pro key. That’s kind of my benchmark for models nowadays. :P
Will it tell you how to make meth?
