Comments and Reviews
Simple and maybe the easiest way to deploy llm.
Pros: Great concept, clean UI, and easy to download models. Love the privacy of having your own AI locally.
Cons: However, all the models are very slow for me, and don't give me very good answers at all for just about anything I ask them. Unusable for me.
If you have at least 16 GB of ram and an up-to-date CPU, you can run 13B models without a graphics card. New/updated models appear continuously, so anybody can find a precious one. You can even download a favourite from other source and copy it to the models folder.
I see, I suppose that is a game-changer. I'll stick to online AI for now as that fits my needs better, but I appreciate the info.
It's free and open-source, with a simple interface, ease of use, and built-in support for RAG and embedding—all of which are major advantages. This allows you to load your documents and use 'chat with documents/files' functionality without needing any additional setup or configuration.
On the downside, customization options are very limited. Unlike LM Studio, you can't adjust model parameters before loading; it's more of a 'download and run' approach. Additionally, if your system doesn't have enough resources to support the loaded model, the program often crashes.
Another alternative (new): LM Studio
Good for local running, but outdated as Cloud-AI frontend. For example, they have GPT-4 model set-up in store (which is not more avaiable for a long time), but don't have Openrouter.
I love the UI and simplicity. But you cant add your own models only the repository's they have listed.
Running locally, wide variety of models to choose, lightweight, easy to install. You can support the training or fine tuning of new models by sending your conversations to the pool. It can also scan local documents placed in a dedicated folder.
