    Gained 86% fewer stars in the last 90 days than in the 90 days before.

    Use Cases & Benefits

    • Provides an open source research environment to train, evaluate, and scale large AI models across local hardware and GPU clusters.
    • Enables seamless experimentation with hundreds of popular LLMs, diffusion, and vision models via a simple cross-platform GUI and plugin system.
    • Use for fine-tuning large language models on Apple Silicon or GPU with integrated support for RLHF and preference optimization.
    • Use for running and experimenting with image diffusion models like Stable Diffusion using multiple inference engines and hardware setups.
    • Use for building and managing datasets, calculating embeddings, and deploying models locally or in the cloud with a full REST API.

    Watch-outs

    • AGPL-style copyleft also applies when the software is offered over a network.
