💡 **What You’ll Learn**:
Run large language models at home, BitTorrent‑style
-
Generate text with Llama 3.1 (up to 405B), Mixtral (8x22B), Falcon (40B+) or BLOOM (176B)
and fine‑tune them for your tasks — using a consumer-grade GPU or Google Colab. -
You load a part of the model, then join a
network
of people serving its other parts.
Single‑batch inference runs at up to 6 tokens/sec for Llama 2 (70B) and
up to 4 tokens/sec for Falcon (180B) — enough for
chatbots and interactive apps. -
Beyond classic LLM APIs —
you can employ any fine-tuning and sampling methods, execute custom paths through the model, or see its hidden states.
You get the comforts of an API with the flexibility of PyTorch and 🤗 Transformers.
