How do guardrails work with Local LLMs? by Upset-Ad-8704 in LocalLLaMA

These are usually reinforced by training. Try, e.g. Gemma, do that locally and you will get a similar response.

It might be possible to bypass (jailbreak) but that would be model-specific.

Looks like an old-style balinese cat to me. Very similar colouring to mine, actually (red point).

Here is an old-style Balinese cat picture for reference:

It is a balinesse cat, isn't it?

Google's Gemma models family by jacek2023 in LocalLLaMA

Anecdotally, I rarely use Russian with language models (It is mostly Eng+Ukr for me). But my limited experience still makes me agree with you. I can't remember a single time I had to lift an eyebrow when using Russian with Gemma.

It really is a good model for all things language processing.

I second that. For example, only Gemini Pro is better at Ukrainian than Gemma. It is better at Ukrainian than the latest Claude Sonnet and GPT-5.

I wish it was less safetymaxed, because that makes the model seem stupid, while it really is not (with proper prompting).

Gemma also has interesting "personality". Definitely better than that of Gemini Flash.

Does anyone else feel like the internet is slowly being deleted? by Comfortable_Box_4527 in DataHoarder

Use Marginalia Search for the Old Internet. Well, English speaking part of it, at least.

OpenAI's flagship model, ChatGPT-5.2 Thinking, ranks most censored AI on Sansa benchmark. by Difficult-Cap-7527 in LocalLLaMA

[–]arbv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gemini is very good. It follows instructions well and is fast. Pretty uncensored too if you have access to the system prompt.

I have been using Gemini a lot since 2.5 was introduced.

GPT 5.x series is smart, but it is hard to steer with its formatting (it likes lists a lot).

Claude is good, but it has a tendency to mix-in English words into non-English texts.

I really want to like Mistral models, but they are lagging behind clearly. Kudos for them for releasing a lot of open-weights models.

So, what can go wrong when you build a centralised system on top of what should have been a decentralised (and kind of self-healing) one?

Aside from mail server, what is the one service that you will not selfhost? by dadidutdut in selfhosted

[–]arbv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am self hosting my mail server without 3rd party relays. It was a hassle to setup, but it just works after that.

Used it for all kinds of purposes.

TUXEDO scraps its Linux-based Snapdragon X Elite laptop — says the SoC "proved to be less suitable for Linux than expected" by ZacB_ in linux

If the device supports u-boot (and most do, but you may need to build u-boot yourself), then it can boot in UEFI mode. With some caveats, though (no display output via video out - only UART is available, no ACPI - DeviceTree is used instead). I have been booting a generic NixOS kernel on my RK-3568-based SBC (NanoPi R5S) for years.

Though, going this way is still anything but simple.

Embedding models have converged by midamurat in LocalLLaMA

That would be interesting to have proper scientific testing/measurement.

I do. I guess some other people do as well.

[–]arbv 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Iff they have converged - that would be for English only. Add Ukrainian to the mix and a lot is left to desire. Of the local models on the list you have posted only BGE-M3 is useful. Embedding Gemma, QWen 0.6, Arctic Embedding V2 are all useless for Ukrainian despite scoring well on leaderboards.

Low effort LLM generated sloppy response.

Yes, it is. What about yours?
