I’ve recently played with the idea of self hosting a LLM. I am aware that it will not reach GPT4 levels, but beeing free from restraining prompts with confidential data is very nice tool for me to have.
Has anyone got experience with this? Any recommendations? I have downloaded the full Reddit dataset so I could retrain the model on this one as selected communities provide immense value and knowledge (hehe this is exactly what reddit, twitter etc. are trying to avoid…)
I personally use
llama.cppin a VM, however if you have a nvidia GPU with lots of VRAM you’ve got more options available, as well as much faster inference (text generation) speed.Check out the community at [email protected], they’re pretty experienced with running LLMs locally
why nvida sprecifically?
