Since a lot more people are trying to build their own multi-GPU machines, I thought I should help to prevent a common mistake people make with building multi-GPU machines. Which is using an Intel cons

Please be honest. I would love to hear about guys really dedicated to local AI and who really reject subscriptions (especially to openai and anthropic). What do you use your model for? submitted by /u

audio.cpp again :) Release 0.4 is out. The headline this time is new high-quality TTS coverage plus GGUF becoming a first-class across the project. What’s new: Added Higgs Audio v3 TTS 4B, Fish Audio

In a previous post (https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1utefpr/running_qwen3_30b_a3b_at_50_toks_on_rtx_5060_ti/) there seemed to be great demand for bringing in Qwen3.5 35B. Some Gated Delta

If you want to get the most out of MTP. You have to run some tests / benchmarks to do so. Turning it on with defaults will get improvements, but for many models and card combinations, you are leaving

So I've taken some time to actually test laguna on a few of my own projects. I wanted to share as I feel most peoples comments at this point have just been about getting it running or saying it doesnt

I've been building a C99 inference engine from scratch (no Python, no BLAS, just gcc and make) that runs BitNet's ternary models on CPU. A few weeks ago I got obsessed with the matmul kernel - wrote a

From my understanding, most current LLMs are trained on trillions and trillions of tokens of mostly AI-generated data. Are there any recent models that are trained purely (or as close as possible) on

At the moment MLX (and Llama.cpp for Macs) run 16bit activations everywhere. Despite this, the M5 generation silicon actually does support INT8 activations - it actually allows w4a8 d_type. It's just

This is rather counterintuitive, since banning Chinese models would benefit them the most. Jensen Huang is also against the ban, although the interests here are more obvious. Do you think that if Arce

Having read some merged PRs in the past, I know that they were fully written by Claude Code (or similar), so this basically fixes the delusion. But at the same time, we might start seeing more AI slop

I wanted to know how cheap you can go and still run local models, so I ran Ollama CPU-only on a Youyeetoo X1S. It's a single-board x86 machine with a Celeron N5095 (Jasper Lake, 4C/4T, 15W), 16GB of R

There's a bunch of small MoE with around 1B active params, like LFM2.5 8B A1B and Granite 4.0h 7B A1B; and then there are models with 3B+ like Qwen 3.x ~30B A3B and Gemma 4 26B A4B, but those are alre
