Things are moving at lightning speed in AI Land. On Friday, a software developer named Georgi Gerganov created a tool called "llama.cpp" that can run Meta's new GPT-3-class AI large language model, LLaMA, locally on a Mac laptop. Soon thereafter, people worked out how to run LLaMA on Windows as well. Then someone showed it running on a Pixel 6 phone, and next came a Raspberry Pi (albeit running very slowly).

If this keeps up, we may be looking at a pocket-sized ChatGPT competitor before we know it.
[...]
For example, here's a list of notable LLaMA-related events based on a timeline Willison laid out in a Hacker News comment:

• February 24, 2023: Meta AI announces LLaMA.
• March 2, 2023: Someone leaks the LLaMA models via BitTorrent.
• March 10, 2023: Georgi Gerganov creates llama.cpp, which can run on an M1 Mac.
• March 11, 2023: Artem Andreenko runs LLaMA 7B (slowly) on a Raspberry Pi 4, 4GB RAM, 10 sec/token.
• March 12, 2023: LLaMA 7B running on NPX, a node.js execution tool.
• March 13, 2023: Someone gets llama.cpp running on a Pixel 6 phone, also very slowly.
• March 13, 2023, 2023: Stanford releases Alpaca 7B, an instruction-tuned version of LLaMA 7B that "behaves similarly to OpenAI's "text-davinci-003" but runs on much less powerful hardware.
