    Llama is just one series of llm by meta specifically.

    I agree we should have dedicated space for AI not to oversaturate technology spaces but this place does not feel like “it”

    The reason llama may have their own community is because its by far the biggest model you can run locally on consumer (high end gamer) hardware. Which makes It somewhat of niche diy self hosting place.

    I really liked r/singularity and when i joined Lemmy there where attempts to recreate it here but non of those took off.

      The name came from Reddit’s LocalLLaMa. But the community has been discussing other model series and papers as well. But you’re right, focus is on “local” so most news related to OpenAI and the big service providers might be wrong there. In practice, it’s also more about discussing than broadcasting news. I also know about !fosai@lemmy.world but I’m not aware of any ai_news or similar. Yeah maybe singularity or futurology. But those don’t seem about scientific papers on niche details, but more about the broader picture.

      I mainly wanted to point out the existence of other communities. It seems to be somewhat wrong here, since OP is getting a third downvotes, as most AI related post do. I think we better split it up, but someone might have to start !ainews
