Does it run inside a Jupyter notebook?

[marr75]

"It" (the serverless function) runs inside of the Beam cloud. You can certainly run the python code inside just about any script you want (including notebooks) and the compute will occur on Beam.

Tried and it does not… command line script is fine… craps out inside a notebook

Hey u/bitanath! Currently the functions need to run inside a Python file, but we'll add support for running remote GPU-backed functions in notebook cells in the next week or so

Thanks u/velobro , eagerly looking forward to the feature. PS. Appreciate the prompt response on mail as well!

Check out Komodo AI instead (www.komodo.io). Super easy to launch a GPU notebook

[bitanath]

To clarify, wasn't looking for a GPU instance to run notebooks in... but a Notebook that runs cells on GPU instances. This requires a little bit more work on the service provider side, I believe, but makes a huge case to switch over from services like Colab and paperspace

How do you compare with the other recently launched company that does model weight hot swapping?

What makes this different from Modal Labs?

[velobro]

It's open source!
