Any of you have a self-hosted AI "hub"? (e.g. for LLM, stable-diffusion, ...) (lemmy.ml)

I've been looking into self-hosting LLMs or stable diffusion models using something like LocalAI and / or Ollama and LibreChat.

Some questions to get a nice discussion going:

Any of you have experience with this?
What are your motivations?
What are you using in terms of hardware?
Considerations regarding energy efficiency and associated costs?
What about renting a GPU? Privacy implications?

Thanks! Glad to see the 8x7B performing not too bad - I assume that's a Mistral model? Also, does the CPU significantly affect inference speed in such a setup, do you know?

If your CPU isn't ancient, it's mostly about memory speed. VRAM is very fast, DDR5 RAM is reasonably fast, swap is slow even on a modern SSD.

8x7B is mixtral, yeah.
