I’m looking for a resource efficient AI model for text generation (math, coding etc.) that will work with LocalAI. Which model should I use? I don’t want it to use more than 1-3 GB RAM. I’ll run it on a vps to use with Nextcloud.

None. There is no model that can output anything even remotely usable on that tiny amount of RAM and certainly not using the few CPU cycles your vps has to offer.
Correct answer. There is no general purpose AI model that can fit ino 1GB. These small models exist, but they do very specific small tasks. Sentiment analysis, object detection, word embeddings for vector databases…
For coding, answering questions and generating text, you’d need like 6-8GB minimum. For maths way more than that and they’ll still be throwing dice instead of giving correct answers.
Hello I would like to run a neural network to play Cyberpunk 2077 at max settings, only catch is my rig is a month old potato, my monitor is a cracked windshield I ripped off the wreck of an old Pontiac at the local junkyard, the night attendant feels bad for me so he lets me scavenge sometimes, plz help
try pfizer/poppy-lrud-normal-128, run it straight offff your neural chip and feed it 1 GB RAM you’ll be gud2go
This worked, thank
To actually answer this, you could look into free APIs of open source models, which have daily limits but are otherwise largely catch-free. You could even mirror endpoints on your VPS if you need to, or host “middleware” like prompt formatters and enhancers.
I say this because, as others said, you cannot actually host AI on a VPS…
I dont know if any specific model will be the right answer, but Qualcomm has their Snapdragon event going on right now, and many of the advancements they are touting are specifically for local AI processing.
So, computing power will improve significantly over the next few years, with AI being the largest benefactor.
