Summary of “Narzędziownik AI V 3/5 2025”
This extensive training video focuses on local AI models, their installation, configuration, usage, and fine-tuning, targeting both individual users and companies. The session is highly technical and educational, covering multiple tools, platforms, and concepts related to offline large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and AI deployment in business contexts.
Key Technological Concepts and Product Features
1. Local AI Models and Offline Usage
- Importance of offline/local models for privacy, data security, and control.
- Tools to run local models include:
- Ollama: A lightweight hypervisor for managing local models as container-like micro virtual machines. Supports downloading verified models, running them as services, and interacting via command line.
- Open Web UI: A web-based graphical interface to interact with local models managed by Ollama. Requires Docker (Docker Desktop on Windows) for containerization.
- LM Studio: A popular local AI model interface with a graphical UI, easy for beginners. Supports downloading and running various models, especially Chinese models like DeepSik and Kuven.
- Use Anything LLM: A more advanced hypervisor combining features of LM Studio and Open Web UI, allowing extensive configuration, agent creation, and integration with multiple LLM providers.
- Model types discussed include LLaMA, DeepSik, Kuven, Mistral, Gemini, and more.
- Model formats: GPTQ, GGUF, GGML, quantized vs full precision (float16, float32).
- Hardware requirements vary by model size and precision; examples given for RAM, VRAM, CPU cores, and GPUs (NVIDIA recommended).
2. Model Management and Configuration
- Downloading models via commands like
ollama pullorlmstudio download. - Managing models locally includes loading, unloading, setting parameters (temperature, top-p, top-k), clearing context, and saving/loading sessions.
- License considerations: MIT licenses common but always verify before commercial use.
- Segmentation of users and permissions in Open Web UI for enterprise deployment.
- Support for multi-language, though some smaller models struggle with Polish tokenization.
- Integration with Active Directory for enterprise user management.
3. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
- RAG combines a retriever model (lightweight embedding-based search) with a generative model.
- The retriever indexes documents, code, or datasets; the generative model uses retrieved context to answer queries.
- RAG is a cost-effective alternative to full fine-tuning.
- Handling large codebases (e.g., 90,000 lines) with chunking, embedding, and indexing.
- Popular retriever models: BG BGE, Instructor, CodeBERT.
- RAG improves accuracy and reduces hallucinations by grounding answers in provided documents.
4. Fine-Tuning and Training Local Models
- Overview of training methods:
- Retraining from scratch (very expensive, e.g., $20M for LLaMA 3).
- Fine-tuning (training parts of the model, more accessible with LoRA adapters).
- RAG (augmenting with external knowledge bases).
- Chat contextual training (ephemeral session-based learning).
- Use of LoRA adapters and Unslot AI library for efficient fine-tuning on smaller datasets.
- Training demonstrated using Google Colab with GPU (T4 recommended).
- Dataset preparation, tokenization, and standardization are critical.
- Training progress monitored via loss metrics; aim to reduce randomness and hallucinations.
- Fine-tuning allows models to specialize (e.g., legal, cooking, programming).
- Ability to save fine-tuned models or adapters and deploy locally.
- Discussion on data privacy when using cloud services for training.
5. Integration and Automation
- Local models can be exposed via web interfaces, APIs, or integrated into business workflows.
- Mention of automation tools like Zapier, Make, and N8N for workflow automation (covered in next sessions).
- Use of vector databases and embedding engines for efficient document search and retrieval.
- Support for text-to-speech (TTS) and speech-to-text (STT) modules, with caution about data privacy when using web APIs.
- Potential for multi-agent systems, though currently limited.
6. Additional Features and Considerations
- Model evaluation and rating (ELO rating system) for selecting best-performing models in production.
- Handling document parsing and OCR via tools like Tika.
- Security best practices: verifying sources of models, firewalling, and monitoring API traffic.
- Licensing and copyright considerations for AI-generated content.
- Hardware recommendations for various use cases (gaming PCs, servers, Mac M1/M2, Xeon processors).
- Discussion of hallucination and mitigation via model parameters and RAG.
- Examples of practical use cases: contract checking, programming assistance, chatbot deployment, and office automation.
