’Tis the season of AI open letters and manifestos, apparently. Mark Zuckerberg has now entered the debate over the future of AI with a WSJ op-ed published today - and frankly, his position is much mor

I've been seeing a lot of news about the latest gemma 4 and qwen 3.6 being really good and the current go-to models but those are out of reach for my GPU at the moment. With 4GB VRAM and 40 GB RAM, I

Someone in the comments of my 27B post-train bakeoff asked for the 35B version, so I ran it. Same setup as last time: fresh Coder workspaces on my k8s cluster, each driving my own agent (Hermes) headl

Hey r/LocalLLaMA, I’m a retired engineer with a background in distributed computing, currently running a 1-person startup. Like many people here, I’d love to experiment with 2T+ MoE models locally. Th

I tested Kat Coder 2.5 with this prompt: Create a spaceship game inspired by Star Fox using vanilla Three.js and HTML. It should have at least five levels, keyboard and mouse controls, enemies, and a

tldr; we are going to host K3 on A100s (yes, thats correct, we'll try to see if it holds up), H200s & B300s - expect results for A100s & H200s this week while we setup the B300 cluster this weekend &

Some Ling-3.0-flash threads here last week ended on the same two questions with no real answer, so I went through the repos. State as of writing, with links so you can check instead of taking my word

I got tired of my Ollama server sitting idle between chat experiments, so I pointed it at my Navidrome library and made it run a radio station. The DJ is an agent, not a shuffler. Each turn it gets to

I just managed to get it running on windows and this thing is fucking insane. I get around 550-720t/s depending on task at hand. Previously to get to such numbers i would have to do batching and agent

“China is working hard to catch up, and the United States should take steps to keep its advantage. Most important, it should continue to prohibit American companies from selling the most advanced chip

I've been building Krasis, an MoE-focused runtime for streaming big models through limited VRAM on NVIDIA consumer/workstation GPUs, and I think this is the most interesting result so far: Ornith-1.0-

I finished the speed leg of my spec-decode benchmarking for Qwen3.6-27B, main algorithms across quants. Overall: the heavier the quant, the more spec-decode buys you (10 of 10 speculative configs rank

Running local models means every token counts — an 8K or 16K window fills up fast when you're stuffing graph context into prompts for RAG. I benchmarked 10 graph serialization formats (JSON, GraphML,

I was refreshing my youtube and found out my favourite reviewer uploaded a battery test of 78 smartphones: https://youtu.be/MpgUFrsIWSQ the author said they started using robotic arm to simulate a per

Instead of 2T+ models, continuing to release highly capable small to medium size LLMs would really help to keep this community vibrant. Hardly anyone can even dream of running the recent 1.5-2T+ beast

When I released Inflect v2 last week, I thought most people would ask whether a TTS model this small actually sounded decent. Instead, I kept getting two questions: “Can I train it on my own voice?” “

I am writing a fairly complex C++ windows MFC application. I have a few 3090s and can run F16 Qwen3.6-27B with 256K context and MTP. The quality of code is exceptional with this quant vs its lower qua

This is our biggest comparison yet. We've taken 23 Gemma 4 E4B models from huggingface and ran them through the abliterlitics gauntlet. We also have a new abliterlitics discord, feel free to jump on a

Last week someone here said ThinkingCap and Fable Fusion 'really do beat the OG' for agentic work, so I ran it: 6 self-grading tasks, 5 reps, 3 models, 90 isolated runs. Tooling, since that's half the

clem 🤗 on 𝕏: https://x.com/ClementDelangue/status/2081056675558195657 • Radical transparency: let’s release the traces from the “rogue” agents so the entire research community can study what happened.

curious how people here approach buying high-end/workstation cards (RTX 6000 Ada, 5000 Ada, etc) for local LLM work, do you actively watch pricing/timing on these specifically, or is the consumer 5090

I ran DeepSeek V4 Flash through Claude Code, OpenCode and Pi on my own benchmark, and the quality came out basically the same across all three while the time and tokens spent was wildly different. Cla

Qwen3.6-27B: SFT vs continued pre-training vs RL? I’m interested in adapting Qwen3.6-27B, but I’m increasingly unsure whether conventional SFT/LoRA is the best route if the goal is to add a capability

Hey r/LocalLLaMA — maintainer here, obviously biased. OpenSmith is an open-source Python tracing tool for LLM pipelines. The idea: drop u/trace on any function, run opensmith ui, get a full local dash

At Bitwize, we've been building Logue, a native macOS app for AI meeting notes and writing, and we just open-sourced it (MIT). We're sharing it here because the whole point is that it runs 100% on-dev

I am seeing more and more videos as posts about how OpenAI is in complete financial ruin, Anthropic isn't much better. Their expenses go with the revenue they make etc etc. Meta made big investments i

Qwen3.6-27b is fantastic! It makes me wonder if there's a hard ceiling to smaller sized models. Do you guys think the ceiling of intelligence for smaller models will be constrained by factors like par

3 year lurker, now i finally got my server up and running. dont know which model to choose. llama.cpp or vllm, what makes more sense? mainly single user with maybe 2-3 more additional users in family,

Hi everyone, I have a system which I have been using for gaming, R7 5700X, 48GB DDR4, RTX3090 24GB. But I want to use it for Local AI to reduce my reliance on cloud AI providers (mainly usage limits -

Cuda and Vulkan Benchmark: TensorSharp vs. llama.cpp I would like to share my latest open source local Unsloth (GGUF) LLM inference engine and applications. It supports many models from Unsloth, like

If you run local agentic coding harnesses (Aider, Claude Code, etc.), prompt evaluation usually eats up most of your execution time. Every turn re-evaluates thousands of identical prefix tokens_system

I understand that the laguna model is either still buggy or potentially benchmaxxed. So I’d like to know for people who really tested, are DS flash or Hy3 really better in your usecase? submitted by /

Hi everyone! Over the past five months I've been working on DKV (DifferentialKV), an open-source project exploring KV-cache compression for long-context local LLM inference. The goal is to reduce KV-c

Hello, I've been learning how to use local LLMs for a year or so on my workstation, using a RTX3090. Current setup : - i5 12400 - 64gb RAM - RTX 3090 - OS : Fedora KDE workstation I'm using LMStudio t

I’ve spent the past month trying to find the point where an extremely small TTS model stops feeling like a size experiment and starts feeling genuinely useful. Today I’m releasing Inflect v2, with two
