  • You can get different results, sometimes better sometimes worse, most of the time differently phrased (e.g. the gemma models by google like to do bulletlists and sometimes tell me where they got that information from). There are models specifically trained / finetuned for different tasks (mostly coding, but also writing stories, answering medical questions, telling me what is on a picture, speaking different languages, running on smaller / bigger hardware, etc.). Have a look at ollamas library of models which is outright tiny compared to e.g. huggingface.

    Also, i don’t trust OpenAI and others to be confidential with company data or explicit code snippets from work i feed them.


  • If you’re lucky you just set it to the wrong version, mine uses 10.3.0 (see below).

    I tried running the docker container first as well but gave up since there are seperate versions for cuda and rocm which comes packaged with this as well and therefor gets unnecessary big.

    I am running it on Fedora natively. I installed it with the setup script from the top of the docs:

    curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh

    After that i created a service file (also stated in the linked docs) so that it starts at boot time (so i can just boot my pc and forget it without needing to login).

    The crucial part for the GPU in question (RX 6700XT) was this line under the [service] section:

    Environment="HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0"

    As you stated, this sets the environment variable for rocm. Also to be able to reach it from outside of localhost (for my server):

    Environment="OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0"











  • I’m not sure if I understand your question, but if you are trying to build a solution, you will have to know the problem. I am writing said mailings, database, rest interfaces etc. for which Java and Spring boot is pretty useful. Some people might consider this antiquated. I also used python for data science stuff in the past. Neither would i like to have been using java back then, or python now. But in both cases i needed to know what i was building before i (or my employer) chose the technology to use.

    If you are offered a position where you will have to use a technology for something you think its not a good fit for then run. Some people might even be more interested in you if you tell them as it makes you look more experienced. And you’re right, it is usually not worth it to have religious wars over 0.xy percents of performance gain, as long as you’re not trying to build a house with a screwdriver.

    Yes, since we have similar gpus you could try the following to run it in a docker container on linux, taken from here and slightly modified:

    #!/bin/bash
    
    model=microsoft/phi-2
    # share a volume with the Docker container to avoid downloading weights every run
    volume=<path-to-your-data-directory>/data
    
    docker run -e HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0 -e PYTORCH_ROCM_ARCH="gfx1031" --device /dev/kfd --device /dev/dri --shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm --model-id $model
    

    Note how the rocm version has a different tag and that you need to mount your gpu device into the container. The two environment variables are specific to my (any maybe yours also) gpu architecture. It will need a while to download though.


  • Huggingface TGI is just a piece of software handling the models, like gpt4all. Here is a list of models officially supported by TGI, although they state that you can try different ones as well. You follow the link and look for the files section. The size of the model files (safetensors or pickele binaries) gives a good estimate of how much vram you will need. Sadly this is more than most consumer graphics cards have except for santacoder and microsoft phi.
