local-ai-release-2 16

Welcome to LocalAI's latest update!

🎉🎉🎉 woot woot! So excited to share this release, a lot of new features are landing in LocalAI!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

🌟 Introducing Distributed Llama.cpp Inferencing

Now it is possible to distribute the inferencing workload across different workers with llama.cpp models !

This feature has landed with #2324 and is based on the upstream work of @rgerganov in ggerganov/llama.cpp#6829.

How it works: a front-end server manages the requests compatible with the OpenAI API (LocalAI) and workers (llama.cpp) are used to distribute the workload. This makes possible to run larger models split across different nodes!

How to use it

To start workers to offload the computation you can run:

local-ai llamacpp-worker <listening_address> <listening_port>

However, you can also follow the llama.cpp README and building the rpc-server (https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/examples/rpc/README.md), which is still compatible with LocalAI.

When starting the LocalAI server, which is going to accept the API requests, you can set a list of workers IP/address by specifying the addresses with LLAMACPP_GRPC_SERVERS:

LLAMACPP_GRPC_SERVERS="address1:port,address2:port" local-ai run

At this point the workload hitting in the LocalAI server should be distributed across the nodes!

🤖 Peer2Peer llama.cpp

LocalAI is the first AI Free, Open source project offering complete, decentralized, peer2peer while private, LLM inferencing on top of the libp2p protocol. There is no "public swarm" to offload the computation, but rather empowers you to build your own cluster of local and remote machines to distribute LLM computation.

This feature leverages the ability of llama.cpp to distribute the workload explained just above and features from one of my other projects, https://github.com/mudler/edgevpn.

LocalAI builds on top of the twos, and allows to create a private peer2peer network between nodes, without the need of centralizing connections or manually configuring IP addresses: it unlocks totally decentralized, private, peer-to-peer inferencing capabilities. Works also behind different NAT-ted networks (uses DHT and mDNS as discovery mechanism).

How it works: A pre-shared token can be generated and shared between workers and the server to form a private, decentralized, p2p network.

You can see the feature in action here:

output

How to use it

  1. Start the server with --p2p:
./local-ai run --p2p
# 1:02AM INF loading environment variables from file envFile=.env
# 1:02AM INF Setting logging to info
# 1:02AM INF P2P mode enabled
# 1:02AM INF No token provided, generating one
# 1:02AM INF Generated Token:
# XXXXXXXXXXX
# 1:02AM INF Press a button to proceed

A token is displayed, copy it and press enter.

You can re-use the same token later restarting the server with --p2ptoken (or P2P_TOKEN).

  1. Start the workers. Now you can copy the local-ai binary in other hosts, and run as many workers with that token:
TOKEN=XXX ./local-ai  p2p-llama-cpp-rpc
# 1:06AM INF loading environment variables from file envFile=.env

(Note you can also supply the token via args)

At this point, you should see in the server logs messages stating that new workers are found

  1. Now you can start doing inference as usual on the server (the node used on step 1)

Interested in to try it out? As we are still updating the documentation, you can read the full instructions here #2343

📜 Advanced Function calling support with Mixed JSON Grammars

LocalAI gets better at function calling with mixed grammars!

With this release, LocalAI introduces a transformative capability: support for mixed JSON BNF grammars. It allows to specify a grammar for the LLM that allows to output structured JSON and free text.

How to use it:

To enable mixed grammars, you can set in the YAML configuration file function.mixed_mode = true, for example:

  function:
    # disable injecting the "answer" tool
    disable_no_action: true

    grammar:
      # This allows the grammar to also return messages
      mixed_mode: true

This feature significantly enhances LocalAI's ability to interpret and manipulate JSON data coming from the LLM through a more flexible and powerful grammar system. Users can now combine multiple grammar types within a single JSON structure, allowing for dynamic parsing and validation scenarios.

Grammars can also turned off entirely and leave the user to determine how the data is parsed from the LLM to be correctly interpretated by LocalAI to be still compliant to the OpenAI REST spec.

For example, to interpret Hermes results, one can just annotate regexes in function.json_regex_match to extract the LLM response:

  function:
    grammar:
      disable: true
    # disable injecting the "answer" tool
    disable_no_action: true
    return_name_in_function_response: true

    json_regex_match:
    - "(?s)<tool_call>(.*?)</tool_call>"
    - "(?s)<tool_call>(.*?)"
  
    replace_llm_results:
    # Drop the scratchpad content from responses
    - key: "(?s)<scratchpad>.*</scratchpad>"
      value: ""
    replace_function_results:
    # Replace everything that is not JSON array or object, just in case.
    - key: '(?s)^[^{\[]*'
      value: ""
    - key: '(?s)[^}\]]*$'
      value: ""
    # Drop the scratchpad content from responses
    - key: "(?s)<scratchpad>.*</scratchpad>"
      value: ""

Note that regex can still be used when enabling mixed grammars is enabled.

This is especially important for models which does not support grammars - such as transformers or OpenVINO models, that now can support as well function calling. As we update the docs, further documentation can be found in the PRs that you can find in the changelog below.

🚀 New Model Additions and Updates

local-ai-yi-updates

Our model gallery continues to grow with exciting new additions like Aya-35b, Mistral-0.3, Hermes-Theta and updates to existing models ensuring they remain at the cutting edge.

🖼️ v2.13.0 - Model gallery edition

Hello folks, Ettore here - I'm happy to announce the v2.13.0 LocalAI release is out, with many features!

Below there is a small breakdown of the hottest features introduced in this release - however - there are many other improvements (especially from the community) as well, so don't miss out the changelog!

Check out the full changelog below for having an overview of all the changes that went in this release (this one is quite packed up).

🖼️ Model gallery

This is the first release with model gallery in the webUI, you can see now a "Model" button in the WebUI which lands now in a selection of models:

output

You can choose now models between stablediffusion, llama3, tts, embeddings and more! The gallery is growing steadly and being kept up-to-date.

The models are simple YAML files which are hosted in this repository: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/tree/master/gallery - you can host your own repository with your model index, or if you want you can contribute to LocalAI.

If you want to contribute adding models, you can by opening up a PR in the gallery directory: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/tree/master/gallery.

Rerankers

I'm excited to introduce a new backend for rerankers. LocalAI now implements the Jina API (https://jina.ai/reranker/#apiform) as a compatibility layer, and you can use existing Jina clients and point to those to the LocalAI address. Behind the hoods, uses https://github.com/AnswerDotAI/rerankers.

output

You can test this by using container images with python (this does NOT work with core images) and a model config file like this, or by installing cross-encoder from the gallery in the UI:

name: jina-reranker-v1-base-en
backend: rerankers
parameters:
  model: cross-encoder

and test it with:

    curl http://localhost:8080/v1/rerank \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
      -d '{
      "model": "jina-reranker-v1-base-en",
      "query": "Organic skincare products for sensitive skin",
      "documents": [
        "Eco-friendly kitchenware for modern homes",
        "Biodegradable cleaning supplies for eco-conscious consumers",
        "Organic cotton baby clothes for sensitive skin",
        "Natural organic skincare range for sensitive skin",
        "Tech gadgets for smart homes: 2024 edition",
        "Sustainable gardening tools and compost solutions",
        "Sensitive skin-friendly facial cleansers and toners",
        "Organic food wraps and storage solutions",
        "All-natural pet food for dogs with allergies",
        "Yoga mats made from recycled materials"
      ],
      "top_n": 3
    }'

Parler-tts

There is a new backend available for tts now, parler-tts. It is possible to install and configure the model directly from the gallery. https://github.com/huggingface/parler-tts

🎈 Lot of small improvements behind the scenes!

Thanks to our outstanding community, we have enhanced the performance and stability of LocalAI across various modules. From backend optimizations to front-end adjustments, every tweak helps make LocalAI smoother and more robust.

🌠 Landing page and Swagger

Ever wondered what to do after LocalAI is up and running? Integration with a simple web interface has been started, and you can see now a landing page when hitting the LocalAI front page:

Screenshot from 2024-04-07 14-43-26

You can also now enjoy Swagger to try out the API calls directly:

swagger

🌈 AIO images changes

Now the default model for CPU images is https://huggingface.co/NousResearch/Hermes-2-Pro-Mistral-7B-GGUF - pre-configured for functions and tools API support!
If you are an Intel-GPU owner, the Intel profile for AIO images is now available too!

🚀 OpenVINO and transformers enhancements

Now there is support for OpenVINO and transformers got token streaming support now thanks to @fakezeta!

To try OpenVINO, you can use the example available in the documentation: https://localai.io/features/text-generation/#examples

🎈 Lot of small improvements behind the scenes!

Thanks for our outstanding community, we have enhanced several areas:

  • The build time of LocalAI was speed up significantly! thanks to @cryptk for the efforts in enhancing the build system
  • @thiner worked hardly to get Vision support for AutoGPTQ
  • ... and much more! see down below for a full list, be sure to star LocalAI and give it a try!

📣 Spread the word!

First off, a massive thank you (again!) to each and every one of you who've chipped in to squash bugs and suggest cool new features for LocalAI. Your help, kind words, and brilliant ideas are truly appreciated - more than words can say!

And to those of you who've been heros, giving up your own time to help out fellow users on Discord and in our repo, you're absolutely amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better community.

Just so you know, LocalAI doesn't have the luxury of big corporate sponsors behind it. It's all us, folks. So, if you've found value in what we're building together and want to keep the momentum going, consider showing your support. A little shoutout on your favorite social platforms using @LocalAI_OSS and @mudler_it or joining our sponsors can make a big difference.

Also, if you haven't yet joined our Discord, come on over! Here's the link: https://discord.gg/uJAeKSAGDy

Every bit of support, every mention, and every star adds up and helps us keep this ship sailing. Let's keep making LocalAI awesome together!

Introducing LocalAI v2.11.0: All-in-One Images!

Hey everyone! 🎉 I'm super excited to share what we've been working on at LocalAI - the launch of v2.11.0. This isn't just any update; it's a massive leap forward, making LocalAI easier to use, faster, and more accessible for everyone.

🌠 The Spotlight: All-in-One Images, OpenAI in a box

Imagine having a magic box that, once opened, gives you everything you need to get your AI project off the ground with generative AI. A full clone of OpenAI in a box. That's exactly what our AIO images are! Designed for both CPU and GPU environments, these images come pre-packed with a full suite of models and backends, ready to go right out of the box.

Whether you're using Nvidia, AMD, or Intel, we've got an optimized image for you. If you are using CPU-only you can enjoy even smaller and lighter images.

To start LocalAI, pre-configured with function calling, llm, tts, speech to text, and image generation, just run:

docker run -p 8080:8080 --name local-ai -ti localai/localai:latest-aio-cpu

## Do you have a Nvidia GPUs? Use this instead
## CUDA 11
# docker run -p 8080:8080 --gpus all --name local-ai -ti localai/localai:latest-aio-gpu-cuda-11
## CUDA 12
# docker run -p 8080:8080 --gpus all --name local-ai -ti localai/localai:latest-aio-gpu-cuda-12

❤️ Why You're Going to Love AIO Images:

  • Ease of Use: Say goodbye to the setup blues. With AIO images, everything is configured upfront, so you can dive straight into the fun part - hacking!
  • Flexibility: CPU, Nvidia, AMD, Intel? We support them all. These images are made to adapt to your setup, not the other way around.
  • Speed: Spend less time configuring and more time innovating. Our AIO images are all about getting you across the starting line as fast as possible.

🌈 Jumping In Is a Breeze:

Getting started with AIO images is as simple as pulling from Docker Hub or Quay and running it. We take care of the rest, downloading all necessary models for you. For all the details, including how to customize your setup with environment variables, our updated docs have got you covered here, while you can get more details of the AIO images here.

🎈 Vector Store

Thanks to the great contribution from @richiejp now LocalAI has a new backend type, "vector stores" that allows to use LocalAI as in-memory Vector DB (#1792). You can learn more about it here!

🐛 Bug fixes

This release contains major bugfixes to the watchdog component, and a fix to a regression introduced in v2.10.x which was not respecting --f16, --threads and --context-size to be applied as model's defaults.

🎉 New Model defaults for llama.cpp

Model defaults has changed to automatically offload maximum GPU layers if a GPU is available, and it sets saner defaults to the models to enhance the LLM's output.

🧠 New pre-configured models

You can now run llava-1.6-vicuna, llava-1.6-mistral and hermes-2-pro-mistral, see Run other models for a list of all the pre-configured models available in the release.

📣 Spread the word!

First off, a massive thank you (again!) to each and every one of you who've chipped in to squash bugs and suggest cool new features for LocalAI. Your help, kind words, and brilliant ideas are truly appreciated - more than words can say!

And to those of you who've been heros, giving up your own time to help out fellow users on Discord and in our repo, you're absolutely amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better community.
