If anything people really need to start experimenting beyond talking to it like its human or in a few years we will end up with a huge ai-illiterate population.

I’ve had someone fight me stubbornly talking about local llms as “a overhyped downloadable chatbot app” and saying the people on fossai are just a bunch of ai worshipping fools.

I was like tell me you now absolutely nothing you are talking about by pretending to know everything.

But the thing is it's really fun and exciting to work with, the open source community is extremely nice and helpful, one of the most non toxic fields I have dabbled in! It's very fun to test parameters tools and write code chains to try different stuff and it's come a long way, it's rewarding too because you get really fun responses

Aren't the open source LLMs still censored though? I read someone make an off-hand comment that one of the big ones (OLLAMA or something?) was censored past version 1 so you couldn't ask it to tell you how to make meth?

I don't wanna make meth but if OSS LLMs are being censored already it makes having a local one pretty fucking pointless, no? You may as well just use ChatGPT. Pray tell me your thoughts?

Depends who and how the model was made. Llama is a meta product and its genuinely really powerful (i wonder where zuckerberg gets all the data for it)

Because its powerful you see many people use it as a starting point to develop their own ai ideas and systems. But its not the only decent open source model and the innovation that work for one model often work for all others so it doesn’t matter in the end.

Every single model used now will be completely outdated and forgotten in a year or 2. Even gpt4 en geminni
