We should set up a torrent network for open source models.
Mirrored from r/LocalLLaMA for archival readability. Support the source by reading on the original site.
Was just thinking about this due to recent events.
Hugging Face is a US-based company, legally incorporated as Hugging Face, Inc. with its official headquarters located in Brooklyn, New York.
It seems like a pretty big single point of failure for local models.
Maybe a distributed network mirror of models would be a good backup.. you know.. just in case.
I know other counties could host models.. but distributed seems safest.. what do you guys think?
