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…)
If you want extremely low code, I recommend GPT4All. The prebuilt binaries/exes run locally on CPU and give you a choice of model to use so you can try out a couple to see which you like the best. It’s remarkably quick on my Ryzen 7 3700X, and it doesn’t take long to get a little web server running with Langchain if you want to put in a bit more effort, too.
Do you need some particular python stuff or is it all provided ?
