When LLaMA came out, I dropped everything I was doing to work on it. It's given me new hope for technological progress. Think about it. What were people focusing on before LLMs came out? The frontiers in software were cryptocurrency and wasm. Now we have something I can believe in and thanks to Facebook I'm able to actually use it on my own. I also got to feel like I was a part of its development when I changed llama.cpp to reduce its memory use by 2x and enable running multiple models in parallel.
