Anyone messed with local cli LLMs? (sh.itjust.works)

Let me preface by saying I despise corpo llm use and slop creation. I hate it.

However, it does seem like it could be an interesting helpful tool if ran locally in the cli. I've seen quite a few people doing this. Again, it personally makes me feel like a lazy asshole when I use it, but its not much different from web searching commands every minute (other than that the data used in training it is obtained by pure theft).

Have any of you tried this out?

I've bounced a few ideas off the limited models currently provided for free online by DuckDuckGo, but I don't think I have the space or RAM to be able to run anything remotely as grand on my own computer.

Also, by the by, I find that the lies that LLMs tell can be incredibly subtle, so I tend to avoid asking them about anything I know nothing about, so that when they lie about the things I do know about, I can gauge how wrong they might be about other things.

You almost certainly have the space, and as for RAM you’ll be running the LLM on your GPU. There are models that work fine on a mobile phone, so I’m sure you could find one that would work well on your PC, even if it’s a laptop.
