Could I run OpenAssistant on my machine?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Depends on what machine you have.
But
1) The model as well as everything else is open source. So in principle you could
2) Right now (2023) the hardware to run a large model is still expensive. But the very fast improvements we have seen in the last years are not going to slow down. So the answer might very well be yes soon.<|im_end|>
