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.

Mistral AI Launches New 8x22B Moe Model
I think the llamafile[0] system works the best. Binary works on the command line or launches a mini webserver. Llamafile offers builds of Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct, so presumably they may package this one up as well (potentially a quantized format).
You would have to confirm with someone deeper in the ecosystem, but I think you should be able to run this new model as is against a llamafile?

Apple Explores Home Robotics as Potential 'Next Big Thing'
Thermostats: https://www.sinopetech.com/en/products/thermostat/
I haven't tried running a local text-to-speech engine backed by an LLM to control Home Assistant. Maybe someone is working on this already?
TTS: https://github.com/SYSTRAN/faster-whisper
LLM: https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile/releases
LLM: https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Nous-Hermes-2-Mixtral-8x7B-D...
It would take some tweaking to get the voice commands working correctly.

LLaMA Now Goes Faster on CPUs
While I did not succeed in making the matmul code from https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile/blob/main/llamafil... work in isolation, I compared eigen, openblas, and mkl: https://gist.github.com/Dobiasd/e664c681c4a7933ef5d2df7caa87...
In this (very primitive!) benchmark, MKL was a bit better than eigen (~10%) on my machine (i5-6600).
Since the article https://justine.lol/matmul/ compared the new kernels with MLK, we can (by transitivity) compare the new kernels with Eigen this way, at least very roughly for this one use-case.

Yes, they're just ZIP files that also happen to be actually portable executables.

Gemma.cpp: lightweight, standalone C++ inference engine for Gemma models
llama.cpp has integrated gemma support. So you can use llamafile for this. It is a standalone executable that is portable across most popular OSes.
https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile/releases
So, download the executable from the releases page under assets. You want either just main or just server. Don't get the huge ones with the model inlined in the file. The executable is about 30MB in size,

Ollama releases OpenAI API compatibility
The improvements in ease of use for locally hosting LLMs over the last few months have been amazing. I was ranting about how easy https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile is just a few hours ago [1]. Now I'm torn as to which one to use :)

Hugging Face raises $235M from investors including Salesforce and Nvidia
FYI the file format, safetensors, was proposed, developed and maintained by HF, and involved people from groups such as Eleuther and Stability for external security audits.

I Made Stable Diffusion XL Smarter by Finetuning It on Bad AI-Generated Images
Thank you for note on this. I had not heard there were already trojan horse malware being slipped into tensor files as python scripts. Apparently torch pickle uses eval on the tensor file with no filter.
Heard surprisingly little commentary on this topic. The full explanation of how Safetensors are "Safe" can be found from the developer at: https://github.com/huggingface/safetensors/discussions/111

What makes .safetensors files safe?
Here the developer goes into some detail about what kinds of protections .safetensor files have : https://github.com/huggingface/safetensors/discussions/111

Security PSA: huggingface models are code. not just data.
Use the safetensors format, which allows safe persistence and loading of models for common libraries - TensorFlow, PyTorch, JAX, etc. We went through external audits in the last few months (blog post). The current direction will be to have this as the default format.
- What's your favorite model. Right now I'm really enjoying dreamshaper.
- Lora, ggml, safetensors, hf, etc. Is there a glossary and guide on which model to choose?

Stability AI Launches the First of Its StableLM Suite of Language Models
I've been diving in lately and while it's not efficient, the only way to do manage is to create a new conda/mamba environment, or a custom Docker image for all the conflicting packages.
For safety and speed, you should prefer the safetensor format: https://huggingface.co/docs/safetensors/speed
If you know what you are doing you can do your own conversions: https://github.com/huggingface/safetensors or for safety, https://huggingface.co/spaces/diffusers/convert
