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.

Eagle 7B: Soaring past Transformers
There's https://github.com/saharNooby/rwkv.cpp, which related-ish[0] to ggml/llama.cpp

- People who've used RWKV, whats your wishlist for it?

The Eleuther AI Mafia
Quantisation thankfully is applicable to RWKV as much as transformers. Most notably in our RWKV.cpp community project: https://github.com/saharNooby/rwkv.cpp
Tooling/Ecosystem is something that I am actively working on as there is still a gap to transformers level of tooling. But i'm glad that there is a noticeable difference!
And yes! experiments are important, to ensure improvements in the architecture. Even if "Linear Transformers" replaces "Transformers". Alternatives should always be explored, to learn from such trade-offs to the benefit of the ecosystem
(This was lightly covered in the podcast, where I share IMO that we should have more research into text based diffusion networks)

There's https://github.com/saharNooby/rwkv.cpp which seems to work, and might be compatible with text-generation-webui.

The Coming of Local LLMs
Also worth checking out https://github.com/saharNooby/rwkv.cpp which is based on Georgi's library and offers support for the RWKV family of models which are Apache-2.0 licensed.

KoboldCpp - Combining all the various ggml.cpp CPU LLM inference projects with a WebUI and API (formerly llamacpp-for-kobold)
I'm most interested in that last one. I think I heard the RWKV models are very fast, don't need much Ram, and can have huge context tokens, so maybe their 14b can work for me. I wasn't sure how ready for use they were though, but looking more into it, stuff like rwkv.cpp and ChatRWKV and a whole lot of other community projects are mentioned on their github.

GPT4.5 or GPT5 being tested on LMSYS?
gpt2-chatbot isn't the only "mystery model" on LMSYS. Another is "deluxe-chat".
When asked about it in October last year, LMSYS replied [0] "It is an experiment we are running currently. More details will be revealed later"
One distinguishing feature of "deluxe-chat": although it gives high quality answers, it is very slow, so slow that the arena displays a warning whenever it is invoked

LM Studio – Discover, download, and run local LLMs
How does it compare with something like FastChat? https://github.com/lm-sys/FastChat
Feature set seems like a decent amount of overlap. One limitation of FastChat, as far as I can tell, is that one is limited to the models that FastChat supports (though I think it would be minor to modify it to support arbitrary models?)

Video-LLaVA
Looks like the Vicuna repo is Apache 2.0 also[1].
What's the interpretation of copyright law that would prevent the code being Apache 2.0 based on the source of the fine-tuning dataset?

Show HN: ChatAPI – PWA to Use ChatGPT by API Build with Alpine.js
For something a little heavier but much more robust in terms of features/functionality I've been enjoying FastChat: https://github.com/lm-sys/FastChat
It allows you to plug in different backends so that you can use OpenAI compatible clients with various LLM's, selfhosted or otherwise.
What are some alternatives?
llama.cpp - LLM inference in C/C++
text-generation-webui - A Gradio web UI for Large Language Models. Supports transformers, GPTQ, AWQ, EXL2, llama.cpp (GGUF), Llama models.
RWKV-LM - RWKV is an RNN with transformer-level LLM performance. It can be directly trained like a GPT (parallelizable). So it's combining the best of RNN and transformer - great performance, fast inference, saves VRAM, fast training, "infinite" ctx_len, and free sentence embedding.
ChatRWKV - ChatRWKV is like ChatGPT but powered by RWKV (100% RNN) language model, and open source.
gpt4all - gpt4all: run open-source LLMs anywhere
mpt-30B-inference - Run inference on MPT-30B using CPU
bitsandbytes - Accessible large language models via k-bit quantization for PyTorch.
verbaflow - Neural Language Model for Go
LocalAI - :robot: The free, Open Source OpenAI alternative. Self-hosted, community-driven and local-first. Drop-in replacement for OpenAI running on consumer-grade hardware. No GPU required. Runs gguf, transformers, diffusers and many more models architectures. It allows to generate Text, Audio, Video, Images. Also with voice cloning capabilities.
