I recently set up a LLM to run locally on my desktop. Now that the novelty of setting it up and playing with different settings has worn off, I'm struggling to come up with actual uses for it. What do you use it for when not doing work stuff?

I had no idea there were smaller models out there catering to this service! What ones would you recommend? Not asking for a friend, genuinely interested in playing around (no pun intended) with them to see what they produce.. the fantasy stuff isn't really me, I'm just fascinated to see what they come up with...

I'd say try MythoMax-L2 first. I think it's a pretty solid allrounder. Does NSFW but also other things. Nothing special and not the newest any more, but easy to get going without fiddling with the settings too much.

If you can't run models with 13B parameters, I'd have to think which one of the 7B models is currently the thing. I think 7B is the size most people play around with and produce new finetunes, merges and what not. But I also can't keep up with what the community does, every bit of information is kind of outdated after 2-4 weeks ๐Ÿ˜†
