    They probably can:

    There are some popular Stable Diffusion models, being run in small businesses, that I am certain have CSAM in them because they have a particular 4chan model in their merging lineage.

    ... And yet, it hasn't blown up yet? I have no explanation, but running illegal weights seems more sustainable than I would expect.

  • dalai

    The simplest way to run LLaMA on your local machine

  • If you're just looking to play with something locally for the first time, this is the simplest project I've found and has a simple web UI: https://github.com/cocktailpeanut/dalai

    It works for 7B/13B/30B/65B LLaMA and Alpaca (fine-tuned LLaMA which definitely works better). The smaller models at least should run on pretty much any computer.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Elixir

    Elixir is a dynamic, functional language for building scalable and maintainable applications

  • Career dev who had the cash and wanted to experiment with anything that can be done concurrently, such as in my language of choice lately, which features high concurrency (https://elixir-lang.org/) or these LLM's, or anything else that can be done in massively parallel fashion (which is, perhaps surprisingly, only a minority of possible computer work, but it still means I can run many apps without much slowdown!)

    I originally had 2 2080ti's to experiment also with virtio/proxmox (you need 1 for the host and 1 for any VM you run). I never got that running successfully at the time, but then Proton got really good (I mainly just wanted to run windows games fast in a VM, but that circumvented that). Later on I upgraded one of them to a 3080ti.

    It's a System76 machine, they make good stuff
