Sounds like there's a market for a hugging face comeptitor.
Nvidia is seeing the writing on the wall that local models are the only viable future for AI. They have to try and squash that now before it's too late. I mean, it is already is too late, as they've hooked there wagons to these AI companies, and that shit's going to end and nividia is going to be a bag holder. I can't wait.
We need to get models into a distributed distribution. Huggingface is way too central.
Yeah, would love to see more of a torrent type website that simply hosts torrent files to models.
some sort of arr stack for models tbh
