minus-squarebrucethemoose@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·9 hours agoMistral is still around, but for local LLMs… they’re kinda irrelevant, sadly. Their models have regressed. I think they’re being choked by ambiguous EU law. If you’re looking for “western” weights, I’d look at the Laguna series first: https://huggingface.co/poolside And ik_llama.cpp quantizations like this: https://huggingface.co/sigargv/Laguna-M.1-GGUF/tree/main There’s a couple of other interesting startups, but TBH its hard to keep track of where they’re from.
