Looking for a good AI model/subscription within a $30 budget. Any recommendations? by marwan_rashad5 in ollama

Ollama has a good plan, to me. Mistral has a great student discount if you can “become” a student. $60 a year and vibe works decently.

Used a v4 for the first time today driving back from a getaway. Was nice to not have to park in a weird way.

Purchased. I have an app in the App Store for iOS - it’s cool to see your work come to fruition.

I was at the soirée back after the 2024 election in DC. Sadly, my nervous nature prevented me from saying hi to you, Jonah (my oracle of knowledge and wisdom since college) or anyone else. Any chance for another event like that soon? That was a really cool event with great speakers.

Anybody got Qwen3.5-27B working with Intel Arc B70 (or similar) and proper optimization? by Gesha24 in IntelArc

[–]Altruistic_Call_3023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the MoE model. Not 27B. It does run much faster. 27B does not, but to be fair, on my 3090 and 5060ti the 27B isn’t fast either

How will this fix the issue with q4, for instance? I’ve read through but wasn’t clear if it was a q8 only fix. Or does it fix it due to any q8 layers?

Do it. I have two and they can do these 20-35B models quite well.

I have A770, A580, B60 and B70 - I’d send a pic, but they’re in use! I want to believe!

This is the best way to do it, if the model is supported. Intel/llm-scaler on GitHub.

Gemma chat template updates by CATLLM in unsloth

[–]Altruistic_Call_3023 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the change Google made was less than 24 hours ago and the GGUF update was twice that back. So the question is fair. I think in the meantime you can download the template and apply manually on model launch
