Open source LLMs reaching GPT-4 levels way earlier than we thought is the most exciting thing now to me
Open source LLMs reaching GPT-4 levels way earlier than we thought is the most exciting thing now to me
With open source RAGs (plugins for LLMs) we can even add stuff like GPT-4 Vision, web browsing and data analysis and reach features parity with GPT-4 and future versions
This democratizes the entire LLM world and means it's possible it won't be monopolized by 3 different BigTech giants but be usable for everyone without any filters and restrictions
This means so many more creative uses of it without limits set by tech companies in San Francisco
It'll be a lot like what Stable Diffusion did for AI image generation
We just need to make open source LLMs easy to use now for normal people
LMstudio dot ai is a nice start but still too complicated to use, eg you have to search and download and pick your own model weights. Just preset it for people! Too much open source engineer thinking and not enough normal user thinking IMHO
Anyway very exciting time
If u want to try, get LMstudio and download the Mistral 7B as well as the new big Mistral model and try it out, free and open source and NO restrictions
