Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I think that's a size where it's a bit more than a good autocomplete. Could be part of a chain for retrieval augmented generation. Maybe some specific tasks. And there are small machine learning models that can do translation or sentiment analysis, though I don't think those are your regular LLM chatbots... And well, you can ask basic questions and write dialogue. Something like "What is an Alpaca?" will work. But they don't have much knowledge under 8B parameters and they regularly struggle to apply their knowledge to a given task at smaller sizes. At least that's my experience. They've become way better at smaller sizes during the last year or so. But they're very limited.
I'm not sure what you intend to do. If you have some specific thing you'd like an LLM to do, you need to pick the correct one. If you don't have any use-case... just run an arbitrary one and tinker around?
