am using my own hardware at home to infer, train, and fine-tune (or trying to; my training efforts have been pretty disasterous so far, but inference works very well).
My current uses of LLM inference are:
My current uses of LLM inference are:
- Asking questions of a RAG system backed by a locally indexed Wikipedia dump, mainly with Marx-3B and PuddleJumper-13B-v2,
- Code co-pilot with

- Give customers a no brainer: make friction crazy low (so painless to add it, now you got exposure and you can pop out when relevant when you can provide the value you can offer them their savings and advertise a real account and take your percentage of the savings), e.g. chrome extensions like Honey, or give them money back with an economical...

We are excited to release the first version of our multimodal assistant Yasa-1, a language assistant with visual and auditory sensors that can take actions via code execution.
We trained Yasa-1 from scratch, including pretraining base models from ground zero, aligning them, as well as heavily optimizing both our training and serving infrastructure.... See more
