I’m more interested in text models. So much potential there. I was fascinated by the person who hooked up a Siri shortcut to one of the openai models, asking it to return a json response. I think with a little imagination the potential applications are just as compelling as image models like SD.

Just one example, using these in games to generate unique conversations, actions, and events.

9 days later and its now possible to run a 65B parameter LLM on a 64GB macbook pro, significantly outperforming GPT-3, OpenAssistant has announced that they got more than 100,000 samples of RLHF to replicate the 'Chat' component, Kobold Horde now supports Llama-33B for anyone to try in a playground with no censorship, and at least 4 other independent projects are spun up to develop at-home LLM tooling.

People want good text models at home.

> Let’s be honest though; the number of people willing to devote their time to tireless effort generating porn (or suggestive images) is >> the number who will ever be willing to do it for text models.

Spot on. Everyone is talking about hos "fast moving" and "innovative" SD community is. Is it? I don't see many models that generate something that is NOT pretty anime girls. There are some... but if you exclude all "female focused" models, SD community doesn't seem particularly active.

The problem with LLMs is the big ones don't run on consumer hardware. If 12GB or 24GB ram would run them you would see just as much interest.

The open source models will keep up as hardware allows IMO.
