Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ollama v0.1.33 with Llama 3, Phi 3, and Qwen 110B
There's a Python binding for llama.cpp which is actively maintained and has worked well for me: https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python

OpenAI: Memory and New Controls for ChatGPT
I'll share the core bit that took a while to figure out the right format, my main script is a hot mess using embeddings with SentenceTransformer, so I won't share that yet. E.g: last night I did a PR for llama-cpp-python that shows how Phi might be used with JSON only for the author to write almost exactly the same code at pretty much the same time. https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python/pull/1184

TinyLlama LLM: A Step-by-Step Guide to Implementing the 1.1B Model on Google Colab
Python Bindings for llama.cpp

Running Mistral LLM on Apple Silicon Using Apple's MLX Framework Is Much Faster
If the model could be made to work with llama.cpp, then https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python might be more compact. llama.cpp only supports a limited list of model types though.

Code Llama, a state-of-the-art large language model for coding
https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python has a web server mode that replicates openai's API iirc and the readme shows it has docker builds already.

Meta: Code Llama, an AI Tool for Coding
LocalAI https://localai.io/ and LMStudio https://lmstudio.ai/ both have fairly complete OpenAI compatibility layers. llama-cpp-python has a FastAPI server as well: https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python/blob/main/llama_... (as of this moment it hasn't merged GGUF update yet though)

First steps with llama
I went with Python, llama-cpp-python, since my goal is just to get a small project up and running locally.

LLMs on your local Computer (Part 1)

GGUF, the Long Way Around
Cool. I was just learning about GGUF by creating my own parser for it based on the spec https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml/blob/master/docs/gguf.md (for educational purposes)

Ask HN: People who switched from GPT to their own models. How was it?
If you don't care about the details of how those model servers work, then something that abstracts out the whole process like LM Studio or Ollama is all you need.
However, if you want to get into the weeds of how this actually works, I recommend you look up model quantization and some libraries like ggml[1] that actually do that for you.

- GGUF File Format

Google just shipped libggml from llama-cpp into its Android AICore
Because the library is called ggml, but it supports gguf.

Q-Transformer
Apparently this guy like a bunch of others like https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml are implementing transformers from papers for people that want them. Pretty cool.

[P] Inference Vision Transformer (ViT) in plain C/C++ with ggml
You can access it here: https://github.com/staghado/vit.cpp It has been added to the ggml library on GitHub: https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml

Falcon 180B Released
https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml
One note is that prompt ingestion is extremely slow on CPU compared to GPU. So short prompts are fine (as tokens can be streamed once the prompt is ingested), but long prompts feel extremely sluggish.

Stable Diffusion in pure C/C++
I did a quick run under profiler and on my AVX2-laptop the slowest part (>50%) was matrix multiplication (sgemm).
In current version of GGML if OpenBLAS is enabled, they convert matrices to FP32 before running sgemm.
If OpenBLAS is disabled, on AVX2 plaftorm they convert FP16 to FP32 on every FMA operation, which even worse (due to repetition). After that, both ggml_vec_dot_f16 and ggml_vec_dot_f32 took first place in profiler.

Accessing Llama 2 from the command-line with the LLM-replicate plugin
For those getting started, the easiest one click installer I've used is Nomic.ai's gpt4all: https://gpt4all.io/
This runs with a simple GUI on Windows/Mac/Linux, leverages a fork of llama.cpp on the backend and supports GPU acceleration, and LLaMA, Falcon, MPT, and GPT-J models. It also has API/CLI bindings.
I just saw a slick new tool https://ollama.ai/ that will let you install a llama2-7b with a single `ollama run llama2` command that has a very simple 1-click installer for Apple Silicon Mac (but need to build from source for anything else atm). It looks like it only supports llamas OOTB but it also seems to use llama.cpp (via Go adapter) on the backend - it seemed to be CPU-only on my MBA, but I didn't poke too much and it's brand new, so we'll see.
For anyone on HN, they should probably be looking at https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp and https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml directly. If you have a high-end Nvidia consumer card (3090/4090) I'd highly recommend looking into https://github.com/turboderp/exllama
For those generally confused, the r/LocalLLaMA wiki is a good place to start: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/wiki/guide/
I've also been porting my own notes into a single location that tracks models, evals, and has guides focused on local models: https://llm-tracker.info/
