Easy to use, know if the model could be run on our computer at a glance. Also, easy to deploy a local server. What else ?
It's very suitable for beginners, easy to use, and has a clean and intuitive interface. Updating the program itself and its dependencies (like llama.cpp, CUDA, etc.) is also quite straightforward. It supports GPU acceleration, and you can easily configure the model during loading. However, it lacks a 'Chat with Documents' feature, and therefore does not support capabilities like RAG and embedding. Plus not open source.
I would give it a 5 if it wasn't for an update that removed the option to select the chats folder, but for everything else have no complaint whatsoever, but just for that detail, I'm thinking about switching to another software alike
Quite literally the only GPU & CPU inferencing app self host that isn't a lie or complete paywall bs. Intergrates with Huggingface to find your preferred ggufs, Why can't other people be like this. Thanks LM Studio for the only no BS app to run LLMs.
