I’d like to self host a large language model, LLM.

I don’t mind if I need a GPU and all that, at least it will be running on my own hardware, and probably even cheaper than the $20 everyone is charging per month.

What LLMs are you self hosting? And what are you using to do it?

    You can run this right from Windows: https://jan.ai/

    You’ll need a lot of RAM, and processing is decently fast, even on a basic laptop.

    edit: holy hell. Grammar.

      Tip: you can copy and paste the Hugging Face link directly into the search box, and it will download the model automatically! Also, it’s pretty smart. It will load into your VRAM first, then your RAM. If you can fit everything into VRAM, you get the fastest speed. But even if you are using RAM, it’s not terribly bad; it’s still faster than you can read.
