Things are still moving fast. It's mid/late july now and i've spent some time outside, enjoying the summer. It's been a few weeks since things exploded in the month of may this year. Have you people settled down in the meantime?

I've since then moved from reddit and i miss the LocalLlama over there, that was/is buzzing with activity and AI news (and discussions) every day.

What are you people up to? Have you gotten tired of your AI waifus? Or finished indexing all of your data into some vector database? Have you discovered new applications for AI? Or still toying around and evaluating all the latest fine-tuned variations in constant pursuit of the best llama?

I used it quite a lot at the start of the year, for software architecture and development. But the number of areas where it was useful were so small, and running it locally is quite slow. (which I do for privacy reasons)

I noticed that much of what was generated needed to be double checked, and were sometimes just wrong, so I've basically stopped using it.

Now I'm hopeful for better code generation models, and will spend the fall building a framework around a local model. See if the helps in guiding the models generation.

I'm pumped for Llama2 which was released yesterday. Early tests slow some big improvements. Can't wait for Wizard/Vicuna/Uncensored versions of it.

Yeah, me too. After summer vacation it's hopefully available and I'll dig into it.
