MODERATORS
Have you ever tried running a decent sized LLM locally?
Decent sized for what?
Creative writing and roleplay? Plenty, but I try to fit it into my 16 GB VRAM as otherwise it's too slow for my liking.
Coding/complex tasks? No, that would need 128GB and upwards and it would still be awfully slow. Except you use a Mac with unified memory.
For image and video generation you'd want to fit it into GPU VRAM again, system RAM would be way too slow.
I use a Mac with unified memory, so that distinction slipped my mind.
