Hi Matthew, i love you videos, watching all of them lately, but i have to ask, did you forget the Autogen Expert Tutorial??

[@amandamate9117]

how to run deepseek-code-7B in ML Studio? its perfect for coding but i dont get a good answer. I dont know which Preset (on the right) to use for this model.

I just tried the local server of LM Studio...using it, and its examples I had a c# console app setup and talking to it in about 15 minutes. Easiest API to use, maybe ever. So good I came here to mention it! :)

[@chessmusictheory4644]

LM studio is awesome . running the server and operating open source models from an IDE I was able to get it to perform pretty much on par with gpt 3 j. just a bit slower . running the server is the way to give your llm the most tokens possible for inference while you formulate your questions around json's and SPR sparse primary representation prompts in the IDE. At one point I had dolphin 2.2 telling a story for over an hour strait with out stopping and not even repeating itself until I shut it off . Massive unexplored potential there.

[@64jcl]

In your demo you seem to only use 1 GPU layer. For my "old" Nvidia 2060 with 6GB I can easly do 40 layers on the GPU and it is very fast with for example the mistral dolphin 2.2.1 Q5 models. The API feature is brilliant, I use it for developing my own agent using a system message to give it some interesting features in its output (calling functions).

Awesome! are you going to create a video on OpenAI's upcoming 'create your own gpt'? would love a video covering that, and exploring any alternatives for Mistral or Llama (ie open source).

[@imperialGaming.2473]

GPT killer other than Sora. This will be what LLM will look like in the near future! So excited to get my hands dirty! 😮

[@youtubetruthlife4750]

Its funny how everything that is "dead simple" is just simple enough for most people to start using. But yes, LM studio is maybe the best entrance to using open source LLM's.

[@theresalwaysanotherway3996]

looks nice, but I wouldn't rely on it for testing in your videos until you can specify prompt formats (there's a good chance the model might be handicapped by the wrong format, currently it only lets you edit context, not the full prompt format). Also it only uses llama.cpp, which means anyone with an nvidia GPU could double their speed by switching to ExLlamaV2 and EXL2 quants.

[@steveyantis]

Thanks!

[@svcupc]

This looks much easier than TextGen WebUI. I haven't looked into it but I hope LM Studio will not record my usage for anything. Another interesting thing would be if we can use AutoGen or MemGPT to extend its capabilities. And if we can "chat with our own doc" using LM Studio.

[@benscottbongiben]

Autogen and memgpt sound good with this.

[@aminalyaquob1387]

awesome review! I wonder how to make the LLM constrained to read and analyze local files?

TheBloke also gives recommendations for which models to use or not use - not necessarily which one is the biggest that you can run.

Off-topic question- how can i save a fine-tuned model that i fine-tuned using gradientAI to run it locally. Please reply, love your videos!❤❤

[@kalvinarts]

I know this is very easy to use but there are plenty open source solutions to do the same. It would be good to inform about the data collection these companies are doi g on the users who use their software.

[@64jcl]

Do you know if LM Studio actually collects anything? Has anyone run a packet sniffer to check if it actually sends packets somewhere?

Brilliant. Can you possibly use llava with lm studio to talk to images?

Wish they would add the chat with your docs feature

[@Kivalt]

I'm waiting for an open model to implement OpenAI's function stuff reliably. That would make up for a lot regarding the differences in intelligence between GPT-4 and open models.

[@Hypersniper05]

Have you tried airoboros ? It's trained on function calling and works for me

[@14supersonic]

I'd say at the rate open llms are advancing, we'll probably have this ability within a years time. Although it's nice that we have the framework for when that does happen.

[@raulbrebenaru2211]

Check out Gorilla open functions

[@ciacioz]

Thanks for your videos, they're are always very very usefull. I tried LM Studio with autogen but even for the simpliest tasks it doesn't give me the correct answers. Ho do I should set up LM Studio to run autogen and use it to generate code? I see that the LM Studio presets change a lot the prompt format so maybe depends on that? Thanks in advance :)

[@kai_s1985]

Do they have a document upload feature, so that we can chat about our document like the custom GPTs?

[@saintsscholars8231]

Seconded. I’m wondering about this too

[@rakly3473]

Those 'should work' etc is not based on your system, it's about compatibility with the LM Studio app. (GGUF models) I have 128GB system and 40GB VRAM, and it also shows the 30GB+ required warning.

[@markelshnops]

Would be a little more useful if the system would allow you to upload documents so you could perform actions like summarization

[@norhloudspeaker]

You can do that with GPT4ALL with a plugin.

[@donaldparkerii]

I believe that if you are enabling Apple Metal requires specific models that was trained with Apple Metal. Also if you are on Mac you can run - open -n -a "LM Studio" - to spawn multiple instances to run different models. I am going to try to do the Linux beta and see if you can get more configuration via CLI for a real server.

[@lukasareskog9230]

Is it possible doing document retrieval within LMStudio? For example, a chatbot that can chat about .pdfs / .csvs / .txts, given to it?. If not possible, would privategpt be a better alternative? It seems very intuitive there. Couldn't find anything on google.

[@kaion8957]

hi nice video how did you make the intro transition ? thanks

[@samet107]

First I want to thank for sharing the useful AI content. The LM Studio software was a key step to bring AI assistants a step closer to the customers and consumer. I made use of the software as well and was recently experimenting with dolphin mistral llm 2.2.1 and wondered after a while what the token count 4984/2048 at the bottom right below the chat input means. As far as I understood, it's some sort of counter how many tokens the llm already has written and answered, but why does it matter? Is the chat history fed into the language model each time we enter something new, and this happens somehow behind the scenes? When these language models are working like this, I would understand that the natural limit of the input the language model supports also is the maximum size of the chat history. I am not very familiar with LLM s and just started experimenting with them. Could someone please explain why the token count: yxcd/yxcd number is there and how it affects the Assistants' performance or affect the chat in which way? Thanks in advance

[@m12652]

Very cool tool. Thanks for this nice tutorial. I wish some day you give lollms a try. It has a models zoo and can run multiple types of models including GGUF , gptq and now awq. It has a persona system and can be installed with a single file install script. It supports basically all remote and local LLMs. Asits name suggests, it is built to support everything that crawls out there. It can be used to generate text, image and audio. It has an extension system (WIP) and It took me hell lot of effort to make. it is 100% free under apache 2.0 licence and there are documentations on my modest youtube channel. I think you can present it way better than I do :) .

[@stickmanland]

Look who's here, guys!

[@jtabox]

lollms is absolutely worth giving a try, I installed it and have been using it for a week now. It has so many features and functions it's almost unbelievable that it's just a couple of devs behind it all. It's a bit rough around the edges in some aspects, but still very much functional and new additions and bugfixes are published constantly. It's been my favorite so far.

[@yerneroneroipas8668]

[@mishlaev]

Thank you for your tutorial and the channel. It would be nice if you can teach how to process files with LM Studio. For example, I have an email (HTML) that I want to parse and structure. I would be interesting to learn all the details how to tune temperature, tokens, context window, etc. Thanks

I have a GTX 1660Ti with 6GBs VRAM and I got way faster results from my Nvidia card when setting n_gpulayers to around 20-30, instead of leaving at 0. Haven't tried anything higher than that, but the difference was night and day. I tried it on mostly 7B 4QKM/S models around 4-5Gbs.

After opening its just one click if you use the same model as before. Maybe you have to reload the model, so ok, 2 clicks.

[@Joe_Brig]

@@Pyriold How many clicks to find, download, and start a new model? Compared to "ollama run vicuna" How do you start a model from the terminal?

[@Pyriold]

@@Joe_Brig Is this really relevant? I download a model maybe every few days or weeks and then its like 1 minute of work. Using a model is done way more often, and thats practically instant.

I think training and inference are totally decoupled, so it does not matter how it was trained, you can use whatever hardware for inference.

There are so many models out there Ive been looking and my question is really can i find a model that would be able to answer any computer error messages i get and how to fix them, what model would i pick if I wanted that? ANd i guess as a side note im also a musician / music producer and would like to find a model that is best for music production or creative writing songs both chord structure/progressions as well as song ideas and lyrics. How do i find that? Ive already searched any and all the keywords I could think up to find that stuff but nearly any of the keywords I try does not bring up anything so im guessing I just dont understand how to look for things.

It's sadly not allowed for Commercial use. But indeed very easy to install and run.

Matthew, can these models be DLed to an external drive and used from there? Can you set up Agents? No capability to upload files? Can you report how the M processor does against a GPU? How well does the locally ran dev version scale? Obviously based on the size of the computer this is running on, but will it handle multiple requests from developers?

[@just..someone]

you can def. have the models on a separate drive, which is super useful. not sure about the rest, but to the last question: via the API mode (emulates style of open AI api) you can have several requests, that then get queued up one after the other.
