coral-pi-rest-server VS alpaca.cpp

That said, you can always look at something like https://coral.ai/products/accelerator/ to help with the performance you need.

Should only be ~$60 https://coral.ai/products/accelerator/

The Coral USB accelerator might be of interest if you want to do some light ML with a low power budget.

However, a pi doesn't have the strength to run something like Llama.cpp, of course, so I've been considering using something like the Coral USB Accelerator (https://coral.ai/products/accelerator). As I've been learning more about it, it seems to be very geared towards TensorFlow Lite models. But whisper.cpp and Llama.cpp use ggml models.

Recently found this thing, though I haven't found a use case for me.

Where's the 30B-in-6GB claim? ^FGB in your GH link finds [0] which is neither by jart nor by ggerganov but by another user who promptly gets told to look at [1] where Justine denies that claim.

You can just download the language model, dude!!! Everyone doesn’t need to make their own and the open source models literally get better every day.

Alpaca

Square could have also trained a more specific data source for their NLP, very similar to Alpaca. Alpaca was trained from interactions from a larger dataset. So while it isn't as smart, it's still able to understand instructions and act upon them.

The model I found was in 8 parts. The alpaca.cpp chat client (chat.cpp) needs to be modified to run the 8 part model, documented here: https://github.com/antimatter15/alpaca.cpp/issues/149

try the instructions on this github repo https://github.com/antimatter15/alpaca.cpp, its not the best one but I was able to run this model on my linux machine with 16GB memory, I think its a good starting point.

Doesn't run offline. If you're running something without a beefy-ish GPU, there's https://github.com/antimatter15/alpaca.cpp .

Ye, atm. toying with alpaca 7B/13B in a local install.
