OOTL: What is a LLM and what does it do?
Large Language Model AI. Like ChatGPT.
And at 72 billion parameters it's something you can run on a beefy but not special-purpose graphics card.
Based on the other comments, it seems like this needs 4x as much ram than any consumer card has
It hasn't been quantized, then. I've run 70B models on my consumer graphics card at a reasonably good tokens-per-second rate.
I'm curious how local generation goes with potentially dedicated AI extensions using stuff like tensor cores and their own memory instead of hijacking parts of consumer GPUs for this.
