    The other catch is that the model is tiny, which will cause hallucinations to skyrocket.

      @ambiguousprops@lemmy.today still an impressive feat, though. Surprised that anything resembling modern software even runs on a system that old now. Probably requires an ancient kernel version and other things. Is there anywhere where they detail this process more specifically? (I only had time to skim the article)
