Exciting times in the world of open-source AI!
I recently had the opportunity to run the new Gemma 2 9B model locally, using the IQ4_XS quantized version and KoboldCPP webUI. The results were truly impressive - the quality of its responses is on par with ChatGPT-4, which is a testament to the advancements being made in the field.
What makes this even more significant is that I was able to achieve this performance on my personal laptop, specifically an AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS CPU. This demonstrates the incredible efficiency and accessibility of Gemma 2.
Here's why running Gemma 2 locally is so important:
* *Democratization of AI:* It empowers individuals and smaller organizations to leverage cutting-edge AI technology without relying on cloud services or expensive hardware.
* *Privacy and Control:* Keeping your data local ensures greater privacy and control over how it's used.
* *Innovation and Experimentation:* Local deployment fosters a more collaborative and innovative environment, allowing developers to tinker and experiment freely.
