Looking at Hardware for Running Local Large Language Models

ChatRTX is a demo app that lets you personalize a GPT large language model (LLM) connected to your own content—docs, notes, images, or other data. Leveraging retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), ...
MIT Technology Review

Large language models can do jaw-dropping things. But nobody knows exactly why.

And that's a problem. Figuring it out is one of the biggest scientific puzzles of our time and a crucial step towards controlling more powerful future models. Two years ago, Yuri Burda and Harri ...
