We will discuss it more at our next board meeting, but one thing we’d like to do soon is to create a language model with the approximate capability of GPT-3 that can run locally on consumer hardware and… 16 r/LocalLLaMA community 3mo ago given the increasing likelihood of an open source AI ban, what are the alternative channels for downloading models? the open ai exec in his "ai communism" post suggested a fraudulent FUD campaign and trump executice order against open source / chinese models. unfortunately that seems pretty likely to happen. i have always use huggingface for downloading models and they would be forced to… 34 r/LocalLLaMA community 3mo ago I don't see how open-source AI models in the U.S. can successfully compete with those from China. Chinese startups benefit heavily from local government subsidies, state-backed banks offering ultra-low-interest loans, and long-term capital (without collateral)—a playbook China has successfully used across other tech sectors. In contrast, neither the U.S. federal nor state… 4 r/LocalLLaMA community 3mo ago It could have been Meta Imma write some fan fiction for a second here if you indulge me.
