| I have a 5070TI (16gb VRAM) with 32GB system ram and a 16 core AMD cpu. I am considering buying a second used videocard, probably the same model, but not for months yet. This hardware setup is new-for-me in that a buddy gave me most of it and I bought the TI card. Are there any resources to help me figure out how to best optimize my runtime paramaters for a given model, based on a given task, similar to what you've shown? I've been a little... irritated? that hooking vscode up to my company LLM subscription seems so much more out-of-the-box capiable than what I can get to work. My assumption at the moment is that I need to create a lot of... I think they're called harnesses? agents? workflows? integrations? (not sure) by hand. Is that accurate? Right now I have ollama running an nvidia nano model and I can poke it with a stick over a web interface I installed. It works, initial token response is slow, after that it seems fine enough. I can't seem to get a good handle on how much context I've used, when context usage starts to degrade response accuracy, or in general how to mirror the results I get (not in terms of accuracy or speed, just features) from the company github copilot + vscode integration. I was also trying to get a plugin called qodeassist working via qtcreator, mixed results there as well. I've been keeping up with this space since the jump, never paid for a sub, work gave me a sub a handful of weeks ago, so the actual useage is all new to me. I can't say I'm super impressed with any of it relative to the hype, but I found it neat to be able to point vscode at a c++ codebase and say "enable wextra, build the code, tell me if there is any low-hanging fruit I can clean up" and get a useful response. I also asked my local model to turn a picture of my dog into a picture of an otter, got a blank picture back, which the thinking bit told me it would do. The whole thing was actually kind of funny. "I am allowed to edit pictures, I can't edit pictures, I am allowed to edit pictures, I'll tell the user I did and send a blank picture back because I can't edit pictures, but I am allowed to." |
