Day 12 of the 12 days of Christmas! Go through Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5, Day 6, Day 7, Day 8, Day 9, Day 10, and Day 11 to catch up. Yes. We didn’t finish it on time. Two days delay and post-Christmas plans pretty much killed it. A major chunk of 12 days was spent on local LLMs. I accidentally published this on 28th December, and today is 31st December. The end of an year. Even my Boxing day plans did not come into fruition. To be fair, I had a lot more fun than be caged with a computer. A little bit of travel, and a night out with old friends. Gorging on British sweets and looking wistfully at a bottle of Bruichladdich, courtesy of my wife. ...

Day 11 of the 12 days of Christmas! Go through Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5, Day 6, Day 7, Day 8, Day 9, and Day 10 to catch up. We motor along to the finale of local LLMs and the penultimate post on 12 Days! ...

Day 10 of the 12 days of Christmas! Go through Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5, Day 6, Day 7, Day 8, and Day 9 to catch up. Local LLMs continue today as well. No. This won’t be the last part. But I promise that this will be the penultimate post on local LLMs. I thought of completing the series today, but there is a lot to cover. Especially with the new GLM release that dropped a few hours back. We looked at the tools to run the models, the model formats, and the model types. Today, we need to look at the model families. This is important because there are many model families out there and their variants, that may be even better or more useful for your usecase. I will not be making a big distinction as to which is better for what. To be frank, I haven’t done enough benchmarking across the models to make such a distinction. But if I have used the models enough, I will be making my commentary. ...

Day 9 of the 12 days of Christmas! Go through Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5, Day 6, Day 7, and Day 8 to catch up. After a riveting part 1 and part 2, we are here with part 3. At least I have AI as my readers now. Not just the ones I ask for comments. AI trawls the depths of Internet for content. We were looking at the analytics for our documentation at work and we are getting a lot of hits from China and Singapore. Two places we know for certain we have no customers or employees! Must be AI! ...
