Can you run that on a regular PC, speed wise? And does it take a lot of storage space? I’d like to try out a self-hosted llm as well.
It’s pretty much all about your gpu vram size. You can use pretty much any computer if it has a gpu(or 2) that can load >8gb into vram. It’s really not that computation heavy. If you want to keep a lot of different llms or larger ones, that can require a lot of storage. But for your average 7b llm you’re only looking at ~10gb hard storage.
