The new Qwen 3.7 27B, running as a 17GB GGUF in LM Studio on my M5 Max MacBook Pro, just drew me the best pelican riding a bicycle I've seen from any model that runs on my laptop

The pelican has the right shaped beak. The red bicycle has the correct shape of frame. The pelican's wing reaches the handlebars. It has legs on both side of the bicycle. There is a pleasing set of clouds, birds, sun, grass and shadow on the image, plus motion lines behind but not in front of the bird.

Seen at WWDC, in a demo of LM Studio, which lets you run AI models locally: A computing cluster made up of four Mac Studios with 512GB of RAM apiece. That’s 2TB of RAM total, which is even more than 640KB.

I was expecting this to take me a couple of hours to set up (with me getting annoyed about undocumented requirements on Github), but no, a few mins including the mini-model download. LM Studio is very beginner friendly. 🥔⚖️⭕⭕

Guess who just figured out how to interact with a local #LLM model in #rstats? 👉This guy!👈 (I did this via @lmstudio-ai.bsky.social using @hadley.nz's 'ellmer' package. Happy to share how I did it if people are interested).

Really enjoying local LLMs. LM Studio appears to be the best option right now. Its support for MLX-based models means I can run LLama 3.1-8b with a full 128k context window on my M3 Max MacBook Pro with 36 GB. Great for document chat, slack synopsis, and more. What is everyone else doing?

VSCode with #Cline plugin connected to a local LM Studio running Qwen 2.5 14B LLM on an M4 pro... Programming prompt compiled and ran the second time after it self-corrected, all tests pass. Code generation took less than a minute to complete. 😳 @lmstudio-ai.bsky.social @vscode.dev

Codestral on LM Studio lowkey slays

a computer screen with an open program, likely written in JavaScript rather than Python. The program appears to be part of the "Codestral Model" and is being used for solving "adventofcode" challenges. The screen has a blue background and black text, making it easy to read.

Didn't think I have a chance with a smol 12GB 4070 to run any interesting LLM locally. But Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct-IQ4_XS *slaps*. It's no Claude, but I'm amazed how good it is. (Also shout out to @lmstudio-ai.bsky.social - what a super smooth experience.)

I'm really happy with Tulu 3 8B. Is nice in the hosted demo (playground allenai org), but also quantized running locally on my mac in LM studio D. Feels like a keeper.

Never realised how easy it is to run LLMs locally. Thought I'd spend at least half a day to get it up and running, but with LM Studio it took me less than 15 min today. I feel like a grampa saying "I used to spend days to get Caffe running, you don't know how easy it is today!" #databs

okay i didn't believe the hype but it's kinda crazy just how good LLMs have gotten over the past few years...

lm studio screenshot, i ask the assistant "Who is haliey welch" and the assistant responds in a loop "HAWK TUAH GIRL! HAWK TUAH GIRL! HAWK TUAH GIRL!"
