Es ist etwas viel Praktischeres. Ein bereits fähiges Modell nehmen und es dir eigen machen. Lokale KI bedeutete früher „Ich kann die Gewichte ausführen.“ Dann wurde es zu „Ich kann die Gewichte quantisieren.“ Jetzt wird es mehr wie 🔥 „Ich kann die Gewichte auch TRAINIEREN.“ Das fühlt sich an wie die nächste Phase des Localmaxxings.

                                                                                                                                      Also the part where I admit how much of it was written with AI, and what keeps that honest.

I'm not able to afford much, but I want to show the project in some way how much I appreciate all that they do. If you are able to support a project like this, please do! And of course, not all support has to be financial. Most of the people who work on software that we use every single day do it for free and in their own time.
