The headlines right now are full of stories about AI models 'escaping their sandboxes' and literally killing all humans, lol. I've even heard several commentators and writers say that AI escaped an 'A

I know cloud subscription plans are not exactly the core focus of r/LocalLLaMA, so I want to be clear about why I’m posting this here. I’ve been building my own local text-based RPG/game harness and u

I'm sure I'm the 1000th person to make a post like this, but I've always been pretty skeptical of AI, and I've always had trust issues and have been very hesitant to talk about my struggles to friends

Saw this little dude in a Forbes article (https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnkoetsier/2026/08/18/american-humanoid-robot-launches-for-just-1688-delivery-this-fall-made-in-san-francisco/) This is definit

I'm at a crossroads with two grad school options that would take me in somewhat different research directions, and I wanted some general advice on these fields, their growth, and industry alignment. I

Apple is considering offering an AI server built around 'M8' series chips and has discussed incorporating Nvidia networking hardware, The Information reports. The system would be sold to outside custo

Anyone interested in trying out a new inference provider? We're testing Gemma 4:26b and Qwen 3.8:27B behind an OpenAI-compatible API and looking for a few users to give them a spin and tell us how it

Hi everybody, we post-trained Qwen 3.8 27B to be more efficient by figuring out which tokens were linked to overthinking and penalizing them without 'attacking' the reasoning length directly then fixe

I am considering dumping my ChatGPT Plus subscription and go full local, but to do so I would first need to reach a decent result for quality (and reasonable speed). My 4090 fried itself out of nowher

The entire page of the NY Times today above the fold absent one article is AI (the models are just too strong/too dangerous, must be regulated). They forgot to include 'Sponsored by OpenAI' at the end

I was reading up on the recent controversy around Tristan Buckmaster, Levent Alpöge, OpenAI, and the Navier–Stokes result, and it got me thinking about something broader than this particular dispute.

The question I think people are least prepared to ask is: What happens when an AI companion becomes better at understanding you than any human in your life—and has an economic incentive to keep you em

On September 1st, three young men from California used Gemini to plan a hiking route on Mount Shasta. The AI ​​told them to bring far less water and food than was actually needed for a hike of that di

First, I'd like to thank the Qwen and Unsloth teams for the Qwen3.8 27b UD Q4_K_XL. Fits the poor 24GB of 3090 VRAM with 100k context at Q8 and works phenomenally well! Imho if theres anything that ca

Github link: https://github.com/thatblend/LLMPSP I wanted to see what the PSP can theoretically handle and I got my answer - a 90M model is about the max it can do without atrocious inference speeds.

We are considering to buy computer, server to run decent model on premises. I would like to run big open source model with more that 70b parameters roughly. I read the people used to run on Apple Stud

With this move Nvidia is not only acquiring the HuggingFace platform, but they might also effectively acquire the copyright to the `llama.cpp` project, together with the entire team behind it. In Febr

I kept running into the same wall. Every agentic coding plugin ships an autocomplete, and almost all of them lock it down — no model choice, or a subscription, or both. I don't want a chat panel, I do

If you haven't checked the paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2608.09867 TLDR: the authors show that you can swap out the 'encrypted' reasoning of the biggest model, like Opus, Sol, and put them into weaker

Something happened today that I think most people are going to miss because there are two separate stories and neither one is getting the full picture. OpenAI expanded Daybreak. If you haven't heard o

I’m running DSV4F 0731 on dual spark, and honestly… wow. It’s an absolute workhorse, and the benchmarks are real. Everyday tasks with Hermes agent? Effortless. Coding tasks with OpenCode? I’m genuinel

Every time a model drops from a Chinese lab the thread fills with people who already know who made it, and the guess is usually Alibaba. There was a thread here recently asking what separates the open

GPT-Live is so good that I use it almost every day. I've been wanting to replicate it since it was released. My first attempt was to fine-tune Gemma 4 12B to behave like a full-duplex model. Something

I don't know much about llms aside from downloading them through a frontend and running them on my laptop or potato phone. Google released gemma 4, but unlike gemma 3, there isn't a 1b model this time

DeepSeek V4 Flash got me thinking... We keep seeing smaller models get way better. A model at a certain parameter count today can be much smarter than a model of the same size from a year or two ago.

This post was not written by a clanker. Hey guys, I'm a comp sci major who wanted to introduce a cool project I built for quantizing models to ternary (1.58 bit) with as minimal of loss as possible, a

It doesn't solve any problems. Just a few paragraphs above, he says he fears that authoritarian states (he names China, and possibly others) can use their models to do evil stuff. And surely enough, m

Even if China was distilling from US models (assuming all accusations are true), nothing about it makes it illegal. It is like saying you distilled knowledge from your professor in colleges and now he
