Ask HN: What is the current (Apr. 2024) gold standard of running an LLM locally?
Some of the tools offer a path to doing tool use (fetching URLs and doing things with them) or RAG (searching your documents). I think Oobabooga https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui offers the latter through plugins.
Our tool, https://github.com/transformerlab/transformerlab-app also supports the latter (document search) using local llms.

Ask HN: How to get started with local language models?
You can use webui https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
Once you get a version up and running I make a copy before I update it as several times updates have broken my working version and caused headaches.

Ask HN: People who switched from GPT to their own models. How was it?
The other answers are recommending paths which give you #1. less control and #2. projects with smaller eco-systems.
If you want a truly general purpose front-end for LLMs, the only good solution right now is oobabooga: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
All other alternatives have only small fractions of the features that oobabooga supports. All other alternatives only support a fraction of the LLM backends that oobabooga supports, etc.

Nvidia's Chat with RTX is a promising AI chatbot that runs locally on your PC
> Downloading text-generation-webui takes a minute, let's you use any model and get going.
What you're missing here is you're already in this area deep enough to know what ooogoababagababa text-generation-webui is. Let's back out to the "average Windows desktop user" level. Assuming they even know how to find it:
1) Go to https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui?tab=readm...
2) See a bunch of instructions opening a terminal window and running random batch/powershell scripts. Powershell, etc will likely prompt you with a scary warning. Then you start wondering who ooobabagagagaba is...
3) Assuming you get this far (many users won't even get to step 1) you're greeted with a web interface[0] FILLED to the brim with technical jargon and extremely overwhelming options just to get a model loaded, which is another mind warp because you get to try to select between a bunch of random models with no clear meaning and non-sensical/joke sounding names from someone called "TheBloke". Ok...
Let's say you somehow braved this gauntlet and get this far now you get to chat with it. Ok, what about my local documents? text-generation-webui itself has nothing for that. Repeat this process over the 10 random open source projects from a bunch of names you've never heard of in an attempt to accomplish that.
This is "I saw this thing from Nvidia explode all over media, twitter, youtube, etc. I downloaded it from Nvidia, double-clicked, pointed it at a folder with documents, and it works".
That's the difference and it's very significant.

Ask HN: What are your top 3 coolest software engineering tools?
Maybe a copout answer, but setting up a local LLM on my development machine has been invaluable. I use Deep Seek Coder 6.7 [0] and Oobabooga's UI [1]. It helps me solve simple problems and find bugs, while still leaving the larger architecture decisions to me.

You can download it and run it with [this](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui). There's an API mode that you could leverage from your VS Code extension.

Ollama Python and JavaScript Libraries
Same question here. Ollama is fantastic as it makes it very easy to run models locally, But if you already have a lot of code that processes OpenAI API responses (with retry, streaming, async, caching etc), it would be nice to be able to simply switch the API client to Ollama, without having to have a whole other branch of code that handles Alama API responses. One way to do an easy switch is using the litellm library as a go-between but it’s not ideal (and I also recently found issues with their chat formatting for mistral models).
For an OpenAI compatible API my current favorite method is to spin up models using oobabooga TGW. Your OpenAI API code then works seamlessly by simply switching out the api_base to the ooba endpoint. Regarding chat formatting, even ooba’s Mistral formatting has issues[1] so I am doing my own in Langroid using HuggingFace tokenizer.apply_chat_template [2]

Related question - I assume ollama auto detects and applies the right chat formatting template for a model?

I Said Goodbye to ChatGPT and Hello to Llama 3 on Open WebUI - You Should Too
I’m a huge fan of open source models, especially the newly release Llama 3. Because of the performance of both the large 70B Llama 3 model as well as the smaller and self-host-able 8B Llama 3, I’ve actually cancelled my ChatGPT subscription in favor of Open WebUI, a self-hostable ChatGPT-like UI that allows you to use Ollama and other AI providers while keeping your chat history, prompts, and other data locally on any computer you control.

One LLaMa to rule them all
There are various other interesting options to set, but for those, I will direct you to the link to the documentation. During the OS Day, I had the chance to experiment a bit with the models offered by Ollama; in fact, if you need some inspiration, I invite you to check out the YouTube channel of Shroedinger Hat where you can find the videos of the individual talks, also organized in a single playlist; you will find more than one showing the use of Ollama for various projects and in various ways 😁

How to Run Llama 3 Locally with Ollama and Open WebUI
That’s where Ollama comes in! Ollama is a free and open-source application that allows you to run various large language models, including Llama 3, on your own computer, even with limited resources. Ollama takes advantage of the performance gains of llama.cpp, an open source library designed to allow you to run LLMs locally with relatively low hardware requirements. It also includes a sort of package manager, allowing you to download and use LLMs quickly and effectively with just a single command.

LLM models are challenging to run directly via ONNX runtime on CPU. For these, we are using a GPU-accelerated Ollama server under the hood:
