ggml and llama.cpp are such a good platform for local LLMs, having some financial backing to support development is brilliant. We should be concentrating as much as possible to do local inference (and training) based on privet data.

I want a local ChatGPT fine tuned on my personal data running on my own device, not in the cloud. Ideally open source too, llama.cpp is looking like the best bet to achieve that!

The problem is, this financial backing and support is via VCs, who will steer the project to close it all up again.

I think you are setting yourself up for disappointment in the future.

Why would you say that?

Never expect such promises to go your way, especially when VCs, angels, etc are able to control the project with their opaque terms sheet, which is why I am skeptical of this. Accepting VC, angel investment cash is no different to having another boss.

I am expecting such high expectations like that to end in disappointment for the 'community' since the interests will now be in the VCs to head for the exit. Their actions will speak more than what they are saying on the website.
